Anyone who watched #MadMen knew there were a lot of layers – #television, #advertising, the #1960s, gender, geography, age. #AnalyzingMadMen has some interesting insights about what it all means. Our review: http://the-agency-review.com/analyzing-mad-men @MadMen_AMC @McFarlandBooks #marketing
Anger, fear, curiousity, are all traits that make sense in terms of survival. But why do humans have a sense of humour? How does THAT help? Matt Coppola & I explore this question, with forays into Bob Newhart, Richard Pryor, & others. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/episode-29-matt-coppola/id1746606151?i=1000687133823 #humour #comedy #senseofhumor

Just finished judging a round of creative at the 47th annual Telly Awards. Some really exceptional stuff there that will inspire you to do great things. And also, admittedly, some not exceptional stuff that will inspire you to enter the show and win some hardware that will impress your mother.

Your call.

When you ask CD/Writer #DerekWalker a question be prepared for an answer that is smart, compelling, unnerving & right on the money. At least, that’s what happened when we asked him – as we asked #JimHarper in season 1 - why is #curiousity such an undervalued trait? https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/episode-28-derek-walker/id1746606151?i=1000687133982
Charles Duhigg breaks down how habits work, why they’re so powerful, what you can do about them and what they do to you – which is why #ThePowerofHabit is so valuable. Our review: http://the-agency-review.com/habit @cduhigg #habit @randomhouse #marketing #advertising #business
We strive for happiness and yet it always feels like the bad things resonate longer than the good things. Why is that? This is the question I asked Michaela Morgan in season 1 and which I posed to Creative Director Anthony Giaccone on episode 27 in season 2: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/episode-27-anthony-giaccone/id1746606151?i=1000687133981
