Pharmed Out: The Drinks are On Carl
OK, let’s say you’re putting together a big, fancy conference in Washington, DC next weekend, and you have a choice between two speakers. One is an overpaid, mediocre author giving you the same-old same-old, still working desperately to bump his book into Amazon’s top 20,000. The other, a younger brother, is a fresh new face, known for speaking truth to power. A viral hit among the younger, Internet-savvy demographic, he is now a major candidate for some prestigious ethics awards, including this one and this one.  Rumors still buzz about an appearance at next year’s DTC marketing conference.
So, you’ve got a conference to put on and who do you choose: The bold truth-teller, or your usual sycophant?
Thanks for the snub, Pharmed Out. You only make me stronger.
