In today's current events, we discuss Samsung's new Wireless Powershare feature, a new social media rule implemented at the NFL level, Amazon's acquisition of Silicon Valley startup Eero and the detrimental effect on Eero's employees, medical misdiagnosis, and the world's most profitable company.

We also get into building rapport and different strategies you can use to connect with someone you meet for the first time. Drawing off our experiences in the gym and sales field, we highlight the concept of being aware of your surroundings and using that to start a conversation with someone.

Drawing off our readings, we discuss what it means to truly prepare for a prospect or presentation by doing the necessary homework on your audience. We also end the show talking about avoiding "weatherproofing" and knowing the right type of feedback to give someone in order to make them better as a human being.
