Sam chats with his Uncle Bunky who shares how his background in computers and information technology led him to a career in ESG which stands for Emotional Social and Governance. As discussed during the podcast, ESG should not be confused with MSG which stands for the flavor enhancer, monosodium glutamate or the prime time sports arena, Madison Square Garden (Home of the Knicks). For a select few, it shouldn't be confused with LSG either which stood for the R&B singing group featuring Gerald Levert (L), Keith Sweat (S) and Johnny Gill (G). ESG is how companies seek to evaluate their sustainability and impact in an effort to treat people well.
