A Desai is on stage! #WWDC
Giving up on a long-standing friendship is very, very hard to do. But sometimes, you’ve just got to pull the plug. When it’s one-sided for too long, when you’re disrespected directly & indirectly over stupid things, when the friendship runs only because you take time out to message and check in. I get everyone has things going on, but the friendship’s been on the ventilator for nearly two years. Sorry, but I can’t do this anymore.

On the most recent episode of Savvy Talk, we talk about the power of audio. I expect I’ll have a bit to say on the Spotify acquisitions soonly.
