Description

The weekly intelligence briefing that actually respects your time and brain cells. Marketing veterans Matthew Newell and Chris Stone deliver 10-minute episodes packed with what happened in marketing that didn't suck, AI developments that won't be obsolete by Thursday, and creative campaigns worth your attention. No fluff. No corporate speak. No hour-long "journeys." Just sharp insights from professionals who've survived enough industry disasters to separate breakthrough from BS. Whether you're running your first campaign or your thousandth rebrand, you'll finish each episode knowing something actionable - plus you'll probably chuckle. Perfect for day-1 and day-10,000 marketers who want concentrated weekly intelligence that moves the needle. Because great marketing isn't just science - it's art, instinct, and knowing which robots to trust. New episodes every week. Real perspective. Actual value.
