The Changing Times Podcast The Wunderlin Company

No, we will not give context for this episode’s title!! You’ll just have to listen to our joyful conversation with friend, client, and colleague Stephen Kertis. We talk about his beginnings at a PBS station in Western Kentucky, forming his creative agency, and spelunking with a living music legend. Stephen also generously shares the influence that grief, storytelling, and relationship-building have on his business.

Theatre Kids, unite! We sat down for a funny, engaging, slightly over-caffeinated conversation with Dr. Lisa Mitchell from The Disney Theatrical Group. We discuss what we learned to bring to in-person gatherings from virtual ones during the pandemic, what business leaders can learn about approaching change from theatre artists, and when the stories we tell can help or hinder; especially when we tell them to ourselves. Plus, Lisa defines “Intrapreneurship”, and Merrell reveals why she has all of The Grinch memorized.
Learn more about Disney Musicals in Schools, the work of Carol Dweck, and listen to “It Starts with a Dream” by Alan Menken.

What happens when 3 marketers record a podcast? In this episode recorded in August, we sit down with Google leader Steph Reddish Hoffman to discuss our mutual attraction to breadth of experience vs depth, the challenge of delegation when you lead, and not adding “too much value”.  And we ask the age-old question: Is all feedback a gift?  Steph also generously shares her experience working alongside grief and loss, when to take it off the shelf, and why we cried during the Barbie movie.
