The Young Turks is the world’s largest online news show. So, we had to invite host, Cenk Uygur, to the world’s greatest podcast that is called The Heart of Business. We talk digital, social media, personal branding, trust in the media and so much more. Plus, Claude managed to escape with minimal fan boy embarrassment.

Cenk Uygur may have had to use one of the questions in his Reddit video AMA (Ask Me Anything) to explain once and for all how to say his name, but it’s not one to be forgotten. The Turkish born news staple has made a name for himself and lived the American Dream. Listen and enjoy!

by Andy Shore

Andy Shore found his way to Benchmark when he replied to a job listing promising a job of half blogging, half social media. His parents still don’t believe that people get paid to do that. Since then, he’s spun his addiction to pop culture and passion for music into business and marketing posts that are the spoonful of sugar that helps the lessons go down. As the result of his boss not knowing whether or not to take him seriously, he also created the web series Ask Andy, which stars a cartoon version of himself. Despite being a cartoon, he somehow manages to be taken seriously by many of his readers ... and few of his coworkers.
