This extended guest episode was recorded as part of our season 2 finale. In this episode, we are joined by two titans of television and entertainment PR who are generally all-around nice guys. Sam Hodges and James MacLeod started their PR career at the BBC together working on shows such as Strictly Come Dancing. They have gone on to have top comms roles at ITV, BBC, Netflix, Channel 4 and Twitter between them. During our conversation, we talked about what it is really like being at the top, moving a headquarters outside London, making the decision to switch industries from TV to tech, failure, reality TV, Ofcom and the most important question of all, how do shows get picked for Gogglebox. At the time of recording the podcast, James MacLeod had stepped down as Communications Director at Channel 4, and remained as an advisor on the government's new consultation relating to the broadcaster's future ownership and its review of public service broadcasting. James started his career at the BBC as a publicist and then later joined ITV, leaving there as Head of Press, Broadcasting. Sam Hodges is a director at Aaqua. He has been the Head of Communications at the BBC , and Twitter, the Director of Content Comms at Netflix and a partner at the agency Freuds.

In this episode, we reflect on Channel 4's Black to Front. On September 10th, Channel 4 broadcast programming featuring Black presenters, actors, writers and experts, contributors, and programme-makers.

Research by Lloyds Banking has shown that although people over 65 make up 17.7% of the population they only feature in 6.2% of advertising, however when they do feature in advertising and marketing the narrative follows the line of stereotypes.

For our Season 1 finale, we bring you a special with Government Communications specialist David Pembroke, who also happens to be known to many in Rugby as ‘Pemby', the communications advisor and most trusted confidant to England Coach Eddie Jones. David has had a riveting career as a broadcaster, marketer, director of communications and now agency CEO. For 25 years, he has led, Contentgroup, one of Australia's top communications agencies specialising in government and public sector communications but with a range of corporate clients. Before setting up the Contentgroup, David was a journalist with ABC (Australian Broadcasting Corporation) and the Communications Director of Australian Rugby Union. He served as a communications advisor to the Australian Olympic Committee and served as an advisor to The Brumbies for several years. This is a conversation about more than sport or government communications. It is one about career longevity, the future of the communications professional, being a trusted advisor, failure, decision-making, and storytelling. In 2020, David set up the GovComms Institute and ran the inaugural GovComms Festival, a 24-hour communications conference with 170 speakers delivering over 100 hours of content to 1,569 attendees from 17 countries.

As PR, Communications and marketing pros, we need to be switched on, but we're also living through a pandemic that is affecting our minds and memory. For our 5 Minutes, we have a chat about brand banter (or “brandter”). In recent weeks, Aldi and M&S have had an interesting exchange on Twitter. But aren't the first. We've seen brands across every sector do it and about several issues. Sometimes, the jovial tone that brands use does cross the line, and there are dangers.

As a communicator, it's important to consider what equipment your spokespeople and leaders have when planning media events, town halls and live sessions.

At best society has a weird obsession with perfectionism as a trait for success, but not only is that notion unhealthy, there's a far darker side to it as a construct in society. We talk about how it can limit your career as well as your mental health. We take 5 minutes to share our thoughts on the erasure of ethnic minority talent in the Public Relations and Communications industry and why marketing and PR awards risk missing amazing work.
