Jon always has great information and a funny and relatable delivery. You really get a sense of just how tall he is in the podcast. The only thing missing for me is to hear more about which graphic novels he likes to read. Is it only Batman?
Description

Published in dozens of languages, his work is both critically acclaimed and adored by readers. When he's not writing, Acuff can be found on a stage, as one of INC's Top 100 Leadership Speakers.
