The Anti-AI Backlash Begins: Major Brands Say No to AI Marketing: EP 005

If you're tired of wading through hour-long marketing podcasts that treat every social post like a Nobel Prize achievement, this episode cuts straight to what actually matters.

Matthew & Chris dissect WPP's new AI self-service platform (yes, the company that started as Wire and Plastic Products), Dommmino's smart rebrand strategy when sales are up not down, and why major brands like Dove and Heineken are publicly rejecting AI in their creative.

Plus: Target doubles down on Hot Santa with a full cinematic universe, and Ukraine's elite military brigades are running recruitment campaigns that would make Madison Avenue jealous.

Two marketing veterans who've seen it all—from payola wheelbarrows to AI-generated Christmas ads—deliver sharp insights, zero fluff, and at least one good laugh in under 10 minutes.

Tune in now for the weekly marketing intelligence briefing that respects your time and doesn't insult your brain.
