In this episode of The Happy Rant, Ted and Barnabas, sans Ronnie, wander to and fro through a variety of topics:

1. Why does Ted mock the very things to which he devotes his time?
2. Doing dumb marketing things out necessity
3. Do most books really sell under 2,000 copies?
4. Social media influencing and playing the marketing game (which doesn’t work)
5. Giving away our own books and feeling like Leo Marvin
