Glad you like the presentation. Considering the job of PR and marketing people is to either a) Make you buy something you don't want, or b) make you want something you haven't bought, I would guess they would have a home with the panderers and seducers of the Ring of Fraud: "Bolgia 1: Panderers (pimps) and seducers march in separate lines in opposite directions, whipped by demons (Dante makes reference here to a recent traffic rule developed for the Jubilee year of 1300 in Rome: keep to the right[32]). Just as the panderers and seducers used the passions of others to drive them to do their bidding, they are themselves driven by demons to march for all eternity.[32] In the group of panderers, the poets notice Venedico Caccianemico, who sold his own sister to the Marchese d'Este. In the group of seducers, Virgil points out Jason, who gained the help of Medea by seducing and marrying her, only to later desert her for Creusa.[32] Jason also seduced Hypsipyle, but "abandoned her, alone and pregnant"[33] (Canto XVIII)." - via Wikipedia Hey slugore!

We just love to podcast. Enjoyed the episode, laughed a lot. Also, really enjoyed Anthony's presentation. What ring of hell do PR and marketing people belong in?
