    It’s so fun to hear a podcast like this after I’ve been to the website first. The first time I came to STO.com I was super impressed at the layout, but I guess I didn’t realize how damn intentional John was at putting it together. After this podcast, I’m seeing that EVERYTHING was strategic, and had a reason why it was created that way it was. Thanks for the super informative podcast, and great example of your strategies in action.
