Creative Tangent is a podcast hosted by The Booth for people who create marketing for a living. We talk with marketers, founders, and creatives about what shapes great work: the constraints, trade-offs, side conversations, and “wait, are we sure?” moments that never show up in a case study. Each episode brings different vantage points into the same room to build a shared language across marketing, motion and creative. From brand storytelling to performance marketing, from first impression to final click. Because great work doesn’t happen in a straight line. It happens on a tangent.

    Langley Barth - Curiosity as a Career

    Langley Barth is a product marketer at Intuit who came to the role through a very different front door. Six years as a Naval officer, a design thinking framework borrowed from his wife, and a spreadsheet full of career conversations he ran like a hypothesis test. In this episode, he and Garus dig into what it actually means to listen to customers, not just run through a discussion guide, but follow the rabbit holes where the real insights live. Langley talks about building trust before going deep, recognizing patterns across dozens of conversations, and what he calls "unknown unknowns", the things customers reveal only when they stop performing and start talking. They also get into AI as a thought partner rather than a shortcut, code switching between product and marketing teams, "big swing hunting," and why the best insights usually live just past the edge of the agenda.  Creative Tangent: Where marketers put strategy in motion.

    Jason Faber - SEO in the Age of AI: Beyond the Keyword

    Jason Faber is an SEO and growth leader who left a senior role at Shopify to build his own fractional consulting practice. This conversation is a clear-eyed look at what SEO actually is in 2026. Jason digs into how search is being reshaped by AI and LLMs, why traffic going down doesn't always mean something's wrong, and how the discovery-to-conversion journey has quietly moved into a "dark funnel" that's hard to measure but impossible to ignore. Jason breaks down the difference between freelancers, agencies, and fractional SEO and makes a compelling case for why being embedded in a team changes everything. They also get into topic ownership, internal linking as a strategic tool, when startups are actually ready for SEO (and when they're not), and why quality still wins in a world that's scaling content faster than ever.

    Evelyn Cools - Build Trust Before Pipeline

    Evelyn Cools is a fractional marketing and growth advisor who helps early-stage B2B founders take marketing from zero to one. In this conversation, she breaks down exactly what that means in practice. She talks about what founders get wrong when hiring their first marketer, and why having the right foundations in place matters more than jumping straight into campaigns and also why paid ads are rarely the right first move, and why the line between B2B and B2C marketing is blurrier than most people think.  Creative Tangent: Where marketers put strategy in motion.

    Wesley Slover - Sound: The Invisible Brand Layer

    We sit down with Wesley Slover, founder of Sanctus Audio and the mind behind sounds you’ve probably heard through Discord, Asana, and Under Armour, without realizing it—to explore how audio shapes the way we experience products, brands, and everyday interactions.  Wesley shares how he designs sound for real-world contexts, collaborating with clients, and the often invisible role audio plays in shaping perception as well as how communication, not just craft, has become central to his work. From UX sounds in software and industrial machines to generative music in games, Garus and Wesley unpack the blurred line between music and sound design, and how audio can subtly guide behavior, enhance usability, and bring brand identity to life. —- Creative Tangent: Where marketers put strategy in motion.

    Elaine Kwok, marketing leader and co-owner of Go Banana Marketing, joins us on Creative Tangent to unpack how marketers can simplify complex products, make safer ideas more useful, and build messaging around what actually moves buyers.

In this episode, Elaine shares how she balances creativity with data, why safe messaging can sometimes become ineffective, and what she’s learning now about business ownership, sustainability, community, and the role of human judgment in an AI-shaped world. — Creative Tangent: Where marketers put strategy in motion.

    First Tangent: What This Show Is About

    Before we dive into the conversations, here’s a quick introduction to Creative Tangent. This show is about marketing, craft, and story, and the part nobody puts in the case study. The messy middle where ideas evolve, strategies shift, and great work slowly takes shape. In this short episode, host Garus Booth explains why the podcast exists, what you’ll hear in future episodes, and why sometimes the most interesting ideas come from following the tangent. —- Creative Tangent: Where marketers put strategy in motion.
