JR shares the one infuriating post that drove him to create this LinkedIn parody account and covers one especially firey run in with a "LinkedInfluencer" who didn't exactly appreciate being "featured" on the page. Plus, we discuss how LinkedIn can improve to make the platform less filled with crap and more valuable to its users. Finally, JR joins the third and final installment of our BS Linkedin Series as we cover off the ridiculous tactics that LinkedInfluencers us to get attention. 01:19 - Interview with JR20:00 - B.S.

After careful consideration on how to best use the platform to support the cause for reform we concluded the best thing to do was to promote resources made available by the leaders of the various movements to reduce police violence.
