    Join me for Episode 9 of Rittener Reflections featuring Robb Gordon who is a good friend and former colleague from Intel.  Rob and I worked together and often ran together when we were at the same place at the same time. In this episode I will reflect on two of my favorite topics: Trade and Running.
    In addition to describing some of our memorable running adventures we dive into some timely and important geopolitical topics including US/China relations, Taiwan, Intel and more.  I also offer some reflections on running marathons and provide a real time update on the iconic Boston Marathon.
    By way of introduction, Robb served as the Senior Advisor and Managing Counsel for the International Government Affairs Group at Intel. He joined Intel in 1999 as a lawyer, supporting various global business units. He contributes to U.S.-China thought leadership and speaks at industry panels. Currently, he is a consultant and Franklin Fellow at the U.S. State Department.  Robb has lived, worked, and studied in Hong Kong, Taiwan, and China, and speaks Mandarin. He now lives in Utah, enjoys outdoor activities and is an avid long-distance runner, having completed 12 marathons and 60 half marathons.
    You won’t want to miss this engaging and honest conversation.
