Friday Nooner: Whomi’s John Gordon On Career Development, GrepBeat Mugs

Even with GrepBeat Godfather Joe “Greg” Colopy out of town for Parents Weekend at Child No. 2’s college, the show must go on. So Jackie remained in the No. 2 chair alongside Pete, who is back from last week’s Caribbean cruise, for the latest edition of The Friday Nooner sponsored by Big Pixel.

Our guest was John Gordon, the Founder and CEO of career development platform Whomi. (We profiled the startup in June.) John kicked off his appearance in dramatic fashion by attempting to win a GrepBeat mug live on the air by answering the following trivia question: In the original 1984 movie, where do the Ghostbusters encounter their very first ghost? You’ll have to tune in to see if he was right—and/or if you are. Pro tip: be specific!
