My Life My Music with Dave Birss

The first few episodes were a bit scrappy and I couldn't fit in everything that I wanted. So I put the leftovers all together in this bonus podcast. It features Rory Sutherland, Mike Nutley and Billy Mawhinney. It's a delicious nugget to stick in your ears.

Future Of Advertising Podcast - BONUS EPISODE

Patrick Collister has had an incredible journey through the industry. From Creative Director of Ogilvy through the world of Direct Marketing to being the creative head of Google Zoo. He's amazingly knowledgeable, has lots of great advice and occasionally treats me to slap-up breakfasts in the Google canteen. Talking of which, I think I need to drop him an email to arrange another one of those!

Future of Advertising Podcast - Ep19 - Patrick Collister gets Googled

When I started in the industry, Tony Brignull was the top Creative Director in London. No wonder. He's the most awarded copywriter in the history of D&AD. I went to visit him in his lovely home in the countryside, drank tea, scoffed cake and talked about the industry. And you get to eavesdrop on it all.

Future of Advertising Podcast - Ep17 - Tony Brignull shares his words

Rosie was president of D&AD when I interviewed her. She's incredibly inspiring. The only place she's ever worked is BBH, where she rose to the top of the creative department. But she's about so much more than just advertising.

Future of Advertising Podcast - Ep18 - Rosie Arnold for president

Julian Vizard and Al Young are the Creative Directors of St Lukes. It was a revolutionary agency when it started out and has retained a real maverick spirit of not working the way the rest of the industry does. And they do it without being a**holes. Which is a bonus.

Future of Advertising Podcast - Ep16 - Two for the price of one

Jeff Stark was joint Creative Director at Saatchi & Saatchi with Paul Arden. And he's got some tales to tell. Which he shares right here in this slice of audio gold.

Future of Advertising Podcast - Ep15 - Some Stark advice

One of the reasons I got into advertising was the Orange Tango ad where the fat bloke gave a kid on the street a good slapping. That ad was done by HHCL, voted the agency of the decade in 2000. Steve Henry was founder and Creative Director of the agency. And I always wanted to work for him. But I never did. However, I get to hang out with him sometimes. And I reckon that's even better.

Future of Advertising Podcast - Ep14 - Steve Henry tells it like it is

Julian Hanford is a former creative director - and now a brilliant photographer and artist. We talked about his project, Assorted Nuts, where he did some brilliant conceptual portraits of advertising legends. Some of these folks will be featuring in the next few episodes that were done for D&AD's 50th anniversary.

Future of Advertising Podcast - Ep13 - Julian Hanford offers us Assorted Nuts

One of the great benefits of the podcast was that I got to hang out with amazing people. Like Sir John Hegarty. If you want to spend time with brilliant people like him, I highly recommend you start your own podcast.

Future of Advertising Podcast - Ep12 - Sir John Hegarty tells us advertising's dead

When you get time with George Lois, you make the most of it. The man has so much talent and wisdom. His generosity with his time gave me enough to fill these 3 episodes. And I even had to cut some stuff out. I've seen him a few times since. I'm a lucky man!

Future of Advertising Podcast - Ep11 - George Lois Finishes Kicking Some Ass

George Lois had so much to tell me during our afternoon together that I couldn't fit it all into one episode. Or even two! This is the middle show of a trilogy.

Future of Advertising Podcast - Ep10 - George Lois Kicks Even More Ass

George Lois is one of the true legends of advertising. He was part of the creative revolution in the late 50s. And went on to start the first ever agency to go public. I spent the afternoon with him at his apartment in downtown Manhattan. I was only expecting half an hour. He gave me half a day.

Future of Advertising Podcast - Ep9 - George Lois Kicks Some Ass

We start by announcing a partnership with the School of Communication Arts. And then chat to one of their mentors, the legendary Paul Brazier (big creative bloke at AMV BBDO). This podcast was responsible for several students attending the school. And that made me very happy!

Future of Advertising Podcast - Ep8 - We Announce Our Awesome New Sponsor!

I'm on a mission to demystify creativity.
