Robert on Eisner
Right back at the start of the whole episode Iain asked Robert to put down in writing of no more than one page who or what Robert Eisner is in his own words. The following is the unedited outpouring. It kind of gives a little depth to the source material. A bit of color.
Robert Eisner - Biography
Description: A graduate with an Journalism major. Wow. Get me! Robert Eisner. I guess I never found my niche unless that niche is trawling bars at night trying to workout what went wrong.
