Forward Podcast 28 geeks out with Peter Shankman, CEO of The Geek Factory, a full-service PR entity with roots in the tech sector and a penchant for tossing people out of perfectly good airplanes. Peter is an outstanding PR professional with more experience than his young age belies.

Author of the recent book Can We Do That?! Outrageous PR Stunts and Why Your Company Needs Them, Peter detailed some fine points for young PR pros and students. Luke Armour and Peter chatted about how “different” can be good, how exercise is still a great creative jump start, and how karma just might be more than one of Peter’s cats.
