EPISODE 338: JOE JOHNSON

Joe Johnson has mastered the desk jokey hustle as he's gone from dream job to dream job. While he spends a lot of time at his Salomon desk, he's not chained to it. He's an industry dark man, a behind-the-scenes ideator of some innovative marketing campaigns by some of the biggest resorts and brands out there. On the podcast, we talk about his first passion, basketball, his incredible list of jobs:  tourism, resort, agency, and brand gigs, his near-death fall, and a lot more. It's the first business episode in a while, and Digi Dave Amirault asks the Inappropriate Questions.
