    How Much Debt Is Your Brand Carrying? – #001

    Your product is good. How come your brand isn't resonating? Every market runs the same cycle. Product becomes commodity, brand becomes the moat, then lazy branding gets commoditised too. Examples include fashion, watches, and tech. Right now, most founders are building at exactly the moment their product advantage is about to stop being enough. This episode traces that cycle through Corteiz, Rolex, and Apple, and names the liability that accumulates every time brand clarity gets deferred: Brand Debt. You'll understand where your market is in the cycle, why a visual refresh won't solve it, and what a properly drawn ICA actually looks like when applied to brand decisions.

    #34 - Lazy Luxury: Why Fakes Are Winning, the AI Design Trap & the Return of Brand Virtue

    In this episode, we dissect the "Lazy Era" of modern fashion and why consumers are ditching high-end labels for factory-direct "dupes." We explore the shift from selling aesthetics to selling virtues, using the evolution of Corteiz as a blueprint for brand survival in the age of AI. Why has "Made in China" shifted from a sign of poor quality to a direct threat to luxury houses? How did Corteiz pivot from niche "anti-establishment" to a universal message of self-discipline? Why is the sports industry uniquely "immune" to the fake market? Where is the breaking point for loyal fans? Expect to learn why the "Fair Exchange" in fashion is broken, the mathematical formula for AI in design, why sports clubs are "taking the piss" with templated designs, the psychology of the "Alcatraz" brand ethos, the first steps to justifying a high-price point through transparency, and much, much more... - Get access to every episode for free on Spotify and Apple Podcasts.

    #29 - Graphic Design in 2026: is it dead?

    This episode addresses the inevitable question looming over the creative industries: Is graphic design dead in 2026? Jaden argues that the death of creativity is a myth, but AI is ruthlessly exposing a dangerous vulnerability: the outsourcing of original thought. In this episode, we explore the intentional design of a creative process that uses technology to supercharge ideas, not replace them. We also tackle why clients who try to replace designers with AI tools ultimately fail, producing nothing but "slop." What is the crucial distinction between the analogue "Ideation" phase and the digital "Execution" phase? How can creative professionals leverage AI as a research executive or a mock-up student while retaining their critical director role? Why will expertise always defeat quick-fix AI tools when clients try to shortcut the design process? Expect to learn the two core components of any creative work, the profound lesson of Austin Kleon’s analogue desk, the simple golden rule of delegation learned from a pub manager, how to avoid creating "AI Slop" in your final designs, the specific use cases for AI in high-speed research and concept mock-ups, and much, much more... - Get access to every episode for free on Spotify and Apple Podcasts.
