462 - Shop Talk with Billy Baumann and James Flames

Bang the drum and brace yourself for a shocking Shop Talk with your true friends Billy Baumann, James Flames, and Mark Brickey. James talks about the success of the process videos he never thought he would make and Billy has some Delicious news about printing, expansion, and a party invitation. The Dream Team reflects on some powerful moments and one member has a big announcement you'll never see coming.* The boys are in rare form and in the spirit of this Shop Talk its only appropriate to say thank you to everyone who makes Adventures In Design a reality be it talking on microphones, calling in to 1-8555-537-5633, or listening through some headphones. We hope everyone can say they took their career a step or two in the right direction because they found some worthwhile advice or some much needed companionship to further their resolve and design a little more happiness into their lives.
