519: The Practice and Shipping Creative Work with Seth Godin (an Encore Presentation of Episode 344)
If I had to make the difficult choice of selecting just 20 books to access for the remainder of my life, I could do a lot worse than the 20 written so far by today’s special guest. Seth Godin is special to me for a lot of reasons; not the least of which is he is almost singlehandedly responsible for helping rekindle my love of reading.

But thanks to his book Purple Cow, I’m here instead. And the beauty of that is, so are you. Seth’s latest book, released last week, is called The Practice: Shipping Creative Work, and I am thrilled to dive into it in this episode with Seth and with you.
