Following eyewitness reports of stolen genius, we hurtled down the highway to catch ad land’s own Bonnie and Clyde; it’s Rosie and Faris Yakob.  Together they form Genius Steals, a nomadic creative consultancy helping brands, agencies, and rebels find the awesome at the intersection of new communication ideas, new product concepts, and new ways of thinking.  They give us the low down on life on the run road, how Rosie earned $10,000 babysitting, ‘Ask Faris’, US vs UK education system, the lack of industry practitioners as professors, engineering moments of in-betweenness, K-shaped recovery, Blair Enns, charging for what you know (not what you do), entertainment as the cost of admission to someone’s brain, the key to creative effectiveness, and a whole lot more.  ///// Here’s Genius Steals  Follow Rosie on Instagram  And follow Faris on Twitter (yes, he’s still on there) For our chinwag with Blair Enns, hear here  Everybody’s Free (To Wear Sunscreen) by Baz Luhrmann  Timestamps (01:44) - Quick fire quest
