Community Manager Appreciation Day (#CMAD) is a 24 hour, live event taking place on Google Hangouts featuring panels focused on, you guessed it, community management. In 2015, the Why I Social podcast produced the first annual Why I Social #CMAD episode.

In 2016, the conversations with Community Managers are split up throughout the week. To kick-start this year's series, I chatted with the team behind this year's #CMAD.
