TRAILER

Trailer: AdMission

This podcast missed the mark. The premise is all wrong - backwards, even.People want to buy things that make them smarter, stronger, safer, sexier and rich. Nobody wants a podcast about the people behind the fantasies - brought to them by the biggest and the smallest names in this industry.People today want beautiful lies.Nobody wants a podcast about advertising. ‘AdMission’, with advertising guru Russel Howcroft and up-and-comer Freddie Young from ‘Good One Creative ', tells the uncensored story behind the world’s most talked about brands, ideas, marketing campaigns, advertising news and industry screw ups. Russel and Freddie are the ‘then’ and ‘now’ of advertising - Russel, with a life-time of knowledge and experience shaped in the free for all days of advertising, and Freddie, a millennial working in a fractured media landscape dominated by strict standards and Tik-Tok. This no spin podcast offers sharp insight to the world's biggest stories in advertising, media and business. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Fantastic podcast for marketing and advertising professionals. One question- where are the show notes located? I can’t find them on Apple Podcasts.
Love it!

I love listening to these two highly intelligent people at the top of their game, who clearly have a lot of respect for each other. I’ve been a long time fan of Gruen; I was a weird nerdy teenager who had the DVD box set and book and everything, now I’m 30 and still never miss an episode. In a shock to absolutely no one, I now work in marketing, so I love the insight and learning this podcast brings! I also love that you guys aren’t afraid to tackle a range of ads and share your opinions freely. I’m so glad the Shameless girls recommended you as I’m now in the process of bingeing every episode! My one gripe is the choice of ads the podcast provider plays throughout. They’re boring and for me, completely irrelevant (property management ads? Really?)! You have an audience of captivated ad people who are probably the only people on the planet who don’t rush to skip through podcast ads, and an opportunity to share with us the kind of exciting ads that Russel and Freddie love. It would be great to hear some of that creativity, and if you can’t be creative at least improve your targeting! Anyway thanks Russel and Freddie for this awesome pod, keep up the great work!

Fantastic podcast. I could listen to Rus talking about the phone book. I’m fast catching up on all the eps. Could never quite beat my #1 podcast Somehow Related. Sorry boys 🙂
