Often times businesses and brands ponder on when to hire a PR professional, or an agency or firm. Is there a sweet spot? How do you know when you need to go to the next level? At some point, you just can't do it all by yourself. On the show we talk to Fletcher's Original Corny Dog heiress Amber Fletcher, who candidly discusses the moment when she had to press pause on "PR'ing" all by herself and enlist some professional help by way of our favorite PR guru, Cynthia Smoot of Gangway Advertising. Stay tuned as we discuss not only the history of the Fletcher's Corny Dog kingdom as to why they generated so much PR by themselves, and then the turnkey moment when Amber decided to kick their PR and marketing efforts up to the next level. Be sure to keep up with Fletchers by visiting fletcherscornydogs.com or on social media @fletcherscornydogs.

We're back for another #PRPetty episode as we discuss the latest in North Texas news involving a Black high school principal, Dr. James Whitfield, and the request by his school board to remove a picture of he and his Caucasian wife, Kerrie Whitfield, from his Facebook photo albums. The photos under fire are of him and his wife on the beach. The shoot was taken as an anniversary photoshoot and was done by a professional photographer. Was this racially motivated? Was the school board correct in requesting him to remove the photos?

Here in PR Land we know that all it takes is one slip of the tongue and a little bit of loose lip yappin' to get your brand canceled forever. The heat was felt in the kitchen these past few weeks for 29-year-old rapper DaBaby as he insinuated homophobic language and HIV/Aids misinformation targeted towards the LGBTQIA+ community.

This week on the PR Petty, we break it down -- if after multiple brand and future concert cancellations due to his offensive statements, if DaBaby's career can recover.

We welcome resident PR Petty co-host Chandra Gore of Chandra Gore Consulting back to the show to discuss as we debate whether #CancelCulture should give DaBaby a permanent pacifier forever.
