    Nir Eyal on how belief can transform your life & your brand

    Nir Eyal returns to the podcast to discuss his latest book, Beyond Belief, and the powerful role belief plays in shaping our behaviour, relationships, and decisions. From the difference between fact, faith, and belief to the surprising ways our perceptions influence what we see, Nir explains how beliefs can be consciously changed and why doing so can transform everything from personal performance to company culture. We also explore the role of belief in branding, including how companies like Liquid Death use anticipation to disrupt entire categories, and why the most successful brands don’t just sell products they shape what people believe.

    How to find inspiration with Kory Marchisotto

    Today, Jon and Kory explore a simple but often overlooked skill: how to actually find inspiration. From brands like Tony’s Chocolonely to supermarkets, subways, and even nature, they break down why the best ideas rarely come from inside your own company. Instead, inspiration comes from changing your environment, staying curious, and being open to unexpected moments. If you’re feeling stuck, this episode is a reminder that great ideas are everywhere, if you’re willing to look for them.

    Coke CMO’s lessons on advertising, innovation and surviving corporate politics - Walter Susini

    Walter Susini, former CMO of Coca-Cola Europe, joins us to share what it really takes to succeed inside one of the world’s most iconic brands. From the enduring power of “Holidays Are Coming” to the role of jingles and distinctive assets. We also dive into innovation at Coca-Cola, including the lessons from Coke Zero and the failed launch of Coke Energy, and where brands often get innovation wrong. But beyond marketing, Walter offers a candid look at the political reality of being a CMO, a theme he explores in his book Bullsh*t Inc., an unfiltered guide to how companies really operate behind the scenes. Drawing on decades of experience, he shares why performance alone isn’t enough, how decisions actually get made, and what it takes to survive and succeed inside large organisations.  Get Walter's book here:https://www.amazon.co.uk/BULLSH-INC-Unfiltered-Survival-Corporate/dp/B0G6PVDM11 Sign up to our live event, The Calling, on April 21st here:https://event.uncensoredcmo.com/events/uncensoredcmo/2044861 Subscribe to our newsletter, The One Thing:https://newsletter.uncensoredcmo.com/ Listen to our new podcast, Uncensored Renegades:Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/uncensored-renegades/id1868870960Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/7qnkqq0XSpgif9A5ZNgSpX?si=f181c3a0e9af480c Timestamps 00:00 - Start00:58 - Walter Susini’s career journey02:38 - Why Coke ran the holidays are coming ads for so long?05:51 - The power of distinctive assets for Coca Cola - especially jingles08:34 - Why Pepsi used Coke’s polar bear11:50 - What the data says about the Pepsi polar bear ad15:41 - Why Walter is a “Professor of Practice”18:10 - The failed launch of Coke Energy21:29 - Innovation in the drinks industry: launching Coke Zero23:32 - The sweet spot for innovation25:53 - The political reality of being a CMO34:00 - Why Walter’s book cover is yellow37:11 - Why Walter wrote a book on corporate politics40:29 - How to navigate the politics in a business42:27 - Why you can still be fired if your performance is great44:54 - Performance theatre beats actual theatre47:15 - Why decisions don’t get made in meetings47:57 - Why vulnerability and psychological safety are non-existent in business49:33 - Dealing with buzzword hyperfocus53:39 - How to survive the corporate jungle

    The price of leadership: the sacrifices every CMO has to make

    Leadership at the top level doesn't come free it costs time, energy, and often the comfort of a predictable life. In this episode, Kory and Jon get honest about what it really takes to lead as a CMO: the personal sacrifices, the travel, the pressure, and the constant balancing act between work and home. From managing time zones on the road to the surprisingly powerful concept of strategic laziness, this is a candid look at what high-performance leadership actually demands, and how to make it sustainable.

    Rory Sutherland & Rawdon Glover - How Jaguar pulled off a design & engineering miracle

    Last year, I sat down with Jaguar MD Rawdon Glover to unpack one of the most controversial rebrands in automotive history. Now, the car is real and I got a chance to ride around the test track in it. Joined by Rory Sutherland, we travelled to Jaguar’s HQ to experience the new car in prototype form. What followed was a conversation on whether this radical reinvention is genius or madness. We dive into the thinking behind the design, the disappearing trade-offs between performance and comfort, and why Jaguar is deliberately challenging convention. Rory brings his trademark perspective on behaviour and perception, including how to rethink “range anxiety” and what makes a product feel truly desirable. This is a rare look inside a brand attempting one of the boldest transformations in modern automotive history.
