About the show

Seasoned marketers clinking their beer mugs, their eyes gleaming with mischief and their minds brimming with creative sparks. As the conversations flow as smoothly as the brews being enjoyed, we'll explore the depths of marketing brilliance, uncovering the highs, the lows, and everything in between. So, grab your favourite beverage, be it a hoppy IPA or a fine single malt, and prepare to tune in to a marketing podcast like no other. Views are strictly personal and don’t represent the views of my present employer (or affiliates) or the employer of any of my guests. Discretion advised.
