Doing this unapologetically assertively. Despite the fact that I love this name for the podcast that's coming (2025 people- after I move!) I'm going to change the name of the podcast back to "The communication edge" because despite having researched this title before selecting it, I've since discovered at least two podcasts with too similar titles. One of them is not only close in title but purpose, content and description and I don't want to infringe on anyone's IP or cause confusion for listeners. What do you think?
