I was a panelist for Episode 2 of The Spew Podcast yesterday with moderator Missy Ward, Karen Garcia from GTO Management, Lisa Riolo and guest Brian Littleton from ShareASale.
Missy broke the ice by asking if any of us had seen Shoemoney’s post about GoGirl – the female urination device that allows girls to pee standing up!? Although it didn’t sound like the other women would find it useful, me being a redneck would! Trust me when I say you don’t want to know how many times I’m squatted in the ditch of tall weeds on a country road.
The discussion turned to the California Assembly Bill 178 that targets affiliate marketers and not in a good way. I have to be honest that I haven’t followed the turmoil much since it hasn’t affecting me directly by living in Nebraska. I was hoping the bigger states would resolve the issue before such legislation even hit Nebraska. C’mon Nebraska is eons behind other states – we still pee outside! But Brian put me in my place, saying all affiliate marketers need to fight AB 178 and he tells us how we ALL can help. If you are unfamiliar with this proposed “Affiliate Sales Tax” then you should listen as they explain everything in layman terms. I learned a lot myself.
Since all of us women on the show work from home, we also talked about balancing time with kids. And I just had to ask Bachelor Brian about his interview with VH1 about a matchmaker reality show. Listen yourself over at Geekcast.fm. After I shower for the day (I’ve been trying to shower before noon everyday….), I plan to listen myself to see how dim-witted I sound.
