You’ve likely figured it out…I listen to podcasts. I also keenly listen to the ads on podcasts – not because I’m hoping for a service discount or need a dog bed, rather, I’m fascinated by the disconnect between the podcast content and the ads. A brain-focused podcast recommending a sugar and 100% artificial flavor confectionary? Odd. And fascinating (though perhaps not surprising) how an industry with a narrow revenue model (sponsored ads!), can cause even the strongest creators to veer via disjointed brand identity choices.
