Data analytics and metrics are the not so secret foundation of our digital marketing age. I have worked professionally and academically with the future of advertising and new media since the late 1980s. As an active digital marketers, this is my view of what is happening today, speaking with influencers, hands-on professionals, and every day marketers. The central thread is the world’s oldest management dictum: Measuring so you can manage.

Society
We live together in a society that is evolving, changing and while seeming to record everything the nuanced lessons from our past seem to disappear in the noise of modernity. I believe things are getting better, and often are better than what one might glean from the headlines. This podcast covers society in large strokes and while also spotlighting minor details.
Food Culture
Food isn’t just the scourge of my waistline It’s also my passion. Discussion and interviews with folks from around our global food culture. Chefs, owners, purveyors, bloggers and photographers.

Memes Monetization and Data Privacy
Targeting memes with personal data (i.e., Facebook reactions) has been suggested as Cambridge Analytica’s low cost “support strategy” for Donald Trump’s presidential campaign.
Brands can use the same or similar tools; in this episode I talk with researcher and personal data entrepreneur Paul Dehaye about data privacy, using memes to “collect” and “share” segments of consumers and the monetization of personal data.
