Hey James, let me clarify why I thought this might be related to ACF.

					<?php
						$post_object = get_field('film_session');

						if( $post_object ):

						// override $post
						$post = $post_object;
						setup_postdata( $post );
					?>

					<?php
						$cr3ativconfmeetingdate = get_post_meta($post->ID, 'cr3ativconfmeetingdate', $single = true);
						$confstarttime = get_post_meta($post->ID, 'cr3ativ_confstarttime', $single = true);
						$confendtime = get_post_meta($post->ID, 'cr3ativ_confendtime', $single = true);
						$confdisplaystarttime = get_post_meta($post->ID, 'cr3ativ_confdisplaystarttime', $single = true);
						$confdisplayendtime = get_post_meta($post->ID, 'cr3ativ_confdisplayendtime', $single = true);
						$cr3ativ_confspeakers = get_post_meta($post->ID, 'cr3ativ_confspeaker', $single = true); 
						/* ACF Fields Within Session */
						$ticket_link = get_field('ticket_link');
					?>

					<div class="speaker_list">
					<?php
					 $cr3ativ_confspeakers = get_post_meta($post->ID, 'cr3ativ_confspeaker', $single = true);
					?>
					<?php
						if ( $cr3ativ_confspeakers ) {

							foreach ( $cr3ativ_confspeakers as $cr3ativ_confspeaker ) :

								/* What I had to hack for this to somewhat wark, but title must match */
								$speaker = get_post($cr3ativ_confspeaker);
							 	echo'<div class="speaker_list_wrapper">';
								$speakerlink = sanitize_title_with_dashes($speaker->post_title);
								echo '<a href=' . '/speaker/' . $speakerlink . '>';
								echo get_the_post_thumbnail($speaker->ID). '<div class="redact redact__small">' . $speaker->post_title .'</div></a></div>';
								/*-- End workaround

								/* How it usually work on their templates 
								$speaker = get_post($cr3ativ_confspeaker);
	              $speakerlink = get_permalink( $speaker->ID ); // Permalink returning current page URL 
	              echo'<div class="speaker_list_wrapper">';
								echo '<a href="'. $speakerlink .'">';
		        		echo get_the_post_thumbnail($speaker->ID). '<div class="redact redact__small">' . $speaker->post_title .'</div></a></div>';
								*/

							endforeach;

					} ?>
					</div><!-- End of speaker list -->

					<?php wp_reset_postdata(); // IMPORTANT - reset the $post object so the rest of the page works correctly ?>
					<?php endif; ?>

I thought maybe I was ending the post object call wrong?

Everything else works for the speakers list (thumbnail, post_title) just not the permalink.
