Some Things Aren't Easy

from Failure - the Podcast · host David Powsner

Some things just aren’t easy. Try explaining the presidential caucuses, for example. Even the NY Times has trouble with that one. Just because you’re a pro, doesn’t mean the words come easily. Writing an intro to this podcast has proven no exception. Regardless, join us in a discussion with Ron Murphy, CEO of Boston-based medical device company Theromics, and perhaps it will all come together for you.

Some things just aren’t easy. Try explaining the Iowa caucuses, for example. Even the NY Times has trouble with that one. Just because you’re a pro, doesn’t mean the words come easily. Why is that? We don’t know any writers at the paper of record (though, for SEO’s sake, that won’t stop us from shamelessly mentioning Maggie Haberman), but we suspect that, like they say, expression is an art, not a science. And, it takes time. Don’t forget, it was — hold on, more SEO coming — Winston Churchill, er …., Ronald Reagan, er …. Barak Obama, er …. Mark Twain who said "I would have written a shorter letter but I did not have the time". So where were we? Oh yeah. Explaining the presidential caucuses. No. That wasn’t it. Naming famous personages? Certainly. But that was for SEO. Hmmmm….. The podcast. That’s it! We were trying to say something about the podcast. My, how easily we forget. Have you? So, our point was that some things just aren’t easy: like introducing this episode of Failure - the Podcast. But, savvy listener, we suspect you already figured that out. Regardless — don’t you just love that word? What a way of tossing off the ones that preceded it — join us in a discussion with Ron Murphy, CEO of Boston-based medical device company Theromics, and perhaps it will all come together for you.
