With trillions spent on digital ads to capture consumer attention, is the most powerful and effective channel for product discovery the one your brand is overlooking?Agility requires brands to move beyond a digital-only mindset and recognize that the modern customer journey fluidly moves between online and offline moments. It means building the capabilities to engage and measure impact in the physical world with the same precision we've come to expect from digital.Today, we're going to talk about the next evolution of retail media and why the physical store, far from being obsolete, is becoming the next great frontier for data-rich, high-impact customer engagement. We'll explore how brands can bridge the gap between their digital strategies and in-store realities to not only drive discovery but create measurable, full-funnel marketing moments.To help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome, Matt Eichorn, CEO and Co-Founder and Dilini Fernando, CMO at Freeosk.About Matt EichornVisionary entrepreneur Matt Eichorn has been at the forefront of evolving brand and shopper marketing experiences for the better part of 20 years.

How much of your marketing technology budget is quietly underperforming, not because the software is flawed, but because your teams can't, or won't, fully adopt it?Because real agility was never about buying faster tools. It's about having an operating model that can actually turn a tool's potential into results, and keep doing it as the tools keep changing.Today we're digging into the phase that quietly decides whether any martech investment pays off: what happens after the contract is signed with things like implementation and adoption. We'll get into:- Why rollouts stall — and why the real cause is usually the operating model, not the tool.- What it takes to move a team from "trained" to genuinely changed.- How to measure real value without fooling yourself with usage metrics.- And what shifts once the platform starts doing some of the work itself.To help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome, Kate Dalbey, Chief Client Officer at Qualified Digital.About Kate DalbeyAs CCO, Kate leads client management and growth initiatives at Qualified Digital, bringing over 20 years of digital marketing experience from both client-side and agency-side roles. She's responsible for driving organic and net new growth by leading multi-disciplinary teams who turn light-bulb ideas into fantastic outcomes for the brands QD works with. Kate is guided by the client philosophy that "we grow because they grow." Kate has consistently delivered year-over-year growth in her portfolio within fast-paced, high-growth start-up environments. She passionately believes that digital experiences can change people's lives for the better and works diligently to see these outcomes arrive in real time. In her daily life at QD, Kate enjoys what she calls "the relentless pursuit of better business results" and takes pride in building the teams that can create them, from idea to strategy to plan to execution and measurement. Because what's next isn't enough, it's what's north that really gets her excited. Kate's career experience is deeply rooted in healthcare, across provider, payer, and life sciences. The client roster she's managed includes category powerhouses CVS Health, CommonSpirit Health, Mayo Clinic, Kaiser Permanente, Cigna, Aetna, Sunrise Senior Living, Gelesis, UNCH, Jefferson Health, Cedars-Sinai, Spaulding Rehabilitation, UHS, and Wedgewood Pharmacy. She's also led digital transformation for AmeriGas, Hitachi Vantara, Thomson Reuters, ScanSource, U of Pennsylvania, and the Am. Board of Internal Medicine. When Kate isn't delivering her unique brand of magic at QD, she's with her husband and 2 sons. She loves cheering on Philly sports teams, coaching youth soccer with her husband, and traveling with her family.Kate Dalbey on LinkedIn---------- Resources ---------- Qualified DigitalThe Agile Brand podcast is brought to you by TEKsystems.We're proud to be a media partner for #MAICON26 - Oct. 13-15!

What if the biggest barrier to scaling your retail media investment isn't technology, but a fundamental disagreement on what success even looks like?Agility requires not just adopting new tools, but also being willing to challenge the measurement frameworks we've grown accustomed to.Today, we're going to talk about the nuanced world of in-store retail media measurement and why the old rules no longer apply. Specifically, we'll cover:- Why the standard approach to measuring in-store media, often borrowed from digital, is creating friction and stalling budget growth.- How to create a unified measurement language that aligns brands, retailers, and agencies around a common definition of success.- Practical steps to move in-store media from experimental budgets to scalable, repeatable investments grounded in actual product movement.To help me discuss this topic and ISM and IAB's recent report, I'd like to welcome Paul Brenner, SVP, Global Retail Media and Partnerships at In-Store Marketplace (ISM) and Collin Colburn, Vice President, Commerce & Retail Media at IAB) and Collin Colburn, Vice President, Commerce & Retail Media at IAB.About Paul BrennerPaul Brenner is Senior Vice President of Retail Media and Partnerships with 25+ years of leadership in media, entertainment, and ad tech.

Klein took his kids back to school shopping and ended up getting kicked out of Old Navy for trying to disrobe a mannequin. Why he was in charge of the back to school shopping is beyond us. Ally renewed her passport and is incredibly proud of her new passport photo. She spent a lot of time taking it in her home and submitting it for approval. We compared it to her last passport photo and we're convinced it is NOT an upgrade, which is really saying something. For a visual, check out the YouTube livestream of our IG @kleinallyshow. We also spun the Wheel of Reveal to determine how we do Ally's gender reveal later this week, and we're pretty sure what it landed on will result in someone being seriously injured or killed. Yay! Plus we brought back MASHTAGS and challenged you to Send KROQ Back To School! Best submissions included Sum of 41, Thinkin Park, Straight A-F-I, and Offspring Break!

When a brand says it "used AI," that could mean anything from a tool speeding up a human's first draft to a system generating and shipping work on its own — and almost all of the real risk lives in the difference. So as AI moves deeper into creative work, which decisions are you certain still belong to a human?Real agility here isn't being quick with the latest tools. It's moving fast without losing the through-line that makes a brand recognizable — the ability to know exactly where human judgment stays non-negotiable.Today we're recording live at Ai4 2026 in Las Vegas at the Venetian, and we're going to talk about:- Drawing a clear line between where AI sharpens creative work and where it introduces unacceptable brand risk.- A practical look at how AI was used in a national campaign to improve the creative process, not just automate it.- The strategic shift as consumers move from traditional search engines to AI-powered platforms for discovery and research.To help me dig into this, I'd like to welcome Taryn Crouthers, CEO at Big Spaceship.About Taryn CrouthersTaryn Crouthers is the CEO of Big Spaceship, MSQ Partners' award-winning creative agency.

Don't be a bad host – grab some stolen squid legs and pull up a chair for the second instalment of our Size Doesn't Matter season! This week, we're hitting the Bong Joon-ho hard to discuss his 2006 South Korean movie masterpiece, The Host. Is it a monster movie? A family drama? A fearless satire on bureaucratic incompetence? It's all the above, plus a healthy dose of anarchic slapstick and a very critical look at international relations. We dive into the murky waters of the McFarland Incident, the real-life catalyst where the US military decided the Han River was a great place for a formaldehyde dump. Featuring the legendary Song Kang-ho as a borderline narcoleptic hero, the film brings together a dysfunctional family including Byun Hee-Bong, Park Hae-il, Bae Doona and Ko Ah-sung to fight a creature that was apparently named Steve Buscemi on set. It's a fearless juggling act of tones that will leave you wondering why American remakes always pull their punches. What to expect from this episode: We speculate whether the baby who played the sun from the Teletubbies is a Patreon subscriber. A look at the McFarland Incident, the real-life event that inspired The Host. We discuss why South Korean movies like The Chaser and I Saw the Devil respect the audience way more than western movies. Dan explains how Bong Joon-ho made him sympathise with a “CGI blob” and nudged him toward veganism. A fun coincidence involving Scott Wilson and a previous season. A critical look at the film's anarchic family dynamics and why a Molotov cocktail is a great sibling-bonding tool. We discuss the fearless social commentary regarding “Agent Yellow” and the anti-American sentiment. A terrifying warning about next week's film choice. This season has eight episodes, concluding September 21st Would you like to see the full lineup for season 16? The only place you can see it is on Patreon but you don't need to be a paying member.

Jose Martinez, Global Chief Data Officer at Coca-Cola FEMSA, says customers don't experience an AI system's mistake as a data problem — they experience it as a company that doesn't know them. Recorded live at Ai4 at the Venetian in Las Vegas, he and Greg Kihlström get into what has to be true underneath before AI systems can act on your data at all.A data foundation AI can act on is a different thing from one that produces reports. Martinez on what actually separates the two, and why a company can have working dashboards and still not have the foundation an automated decision requires.Across many markets and millions of points of sale, consistency is the constraint — not speed. Agility isn't really about moving faster; it's being able to change repeatedly without the company starting to contradict itself. Martinez on what keeps decisions consistent as more of them get automated.Foundational data work has to be justified without a campaign-shaped payoff. How to make the case internally when the return doesn't show up as a lift number, and what enterprise leaders can use instead.About Jose MartinezJose De Jesus Martinez Camara, MS, PMP, is an innovative executive currently serving as the Global Chief Data Officer at Coca-Cola FEMSA.

The King Lebron James has signed with the 76ERS and Rob Parker from Fox Sports had a hot take we couldn't ignore. Is Bron really a ring chaser or is he a ring creator? The boys run through their Champs and Chumps from the weekend, We start our week off with a Mic'd Up, and Kravitz is starting to break down all 32 NFL teams daily! Michael McCarthy from Front Office Sports joins Game On!

As we all know the king Lebron James has signed with the 76ERS and Rob Parker from Fox Sports had a hot take we couldn't ignore. Is Bron really a ring chaser or is he a ring creator?

Rob and Kelvin debate whether LeBron James should be ridiculed for trying to ring chase with the Philadelphia 76ers, tell us which team the Sixers should face during the NBA’s marquee Christmas Day showdown, and take a trip out to Shekel City for Rob’s nightly bets. Plus, NBA champion and FOX Sports Radio NBA analyst Antonio Daniels swings by to discuss LeBron’s decision to sign with Philly, whether the Sixers are the team to beat in the East, how the Warriors can pivot after missing out on The King, and much more!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

LeBron James shocked the NBA world by signing with the Philadelphia 76ers, and the Hoopsology Podcast crew jumped on an emergency episode of "In the Lab" to react in real time. Hosts Matt Thomas, Justin Goodrum, and Alan Muenzler break down everything from LeBron's surprising social media announcement to what this blockbuster move actually means for a Sixers roster that now features Joel Embiid, Jaylen Brown, Tyrese Maxey, and VJ Edgecombe. In this clip, the guys dig into the biggest questions surrounding the signing: Was LeBron really considering retirement, or was this the plan all along? How does a two-year, team-friendly deal change the power dynamics in the locker room? Can Nick Nurse manage a roster full of ball-dominant scorers the way he did with that championship Raptors squad? And what does joining a fourth franchise mean for LeBron's legacy as he chases one more ring? The crew also weighs in on fit concerns at power forward, the impact on Maxey and Edgecombe's development, lingering health question marks that have plagued Philly for a decade, and where this new-look Sixers team stacks up in an increasingly competitive Eastern Conference.

In the race to implement AI for operational efficiency, are we accidentally designing the essential human elements of creativity, judgment, and trust out of our organizations?Agility requires not just the rapid adoption of new technologies like AI, but the deliberate and human-centered redesign of the culture and processes that support them.Today, we're going to talk about:- Why AI adoption is less about the technology itself and more about a fundamental cultural paradigm shift within your organization.- Balancing AI-driven efficiency with the essential human elements of creativity, judgment, and empathy to create superior customer and employee experiences.- How complex industries like healthcare can serve as a model for using AI to democratize knowledge and empower consumers.To help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome, Stephanie Trunzo, Chief Executive Officer at MERGE.

Nick talks to Dr. Alok Trivedi (Dr. Rewire) to discuss the deep connection between genetics, neurology, and financial success, based on his book The 4 Brains of Money.  Moving past traditional "money mindsets," Dr. Trivedi explains how individual neurotransmitter profiles—split into four primary types: Chaser, Protector, Receiver, and Bridge Builder—dictate how we make, manage, and potentially self-sabotage our wealth.  By shifting from subjective beliefs to objective, DNA-based brain regulation, high achievers can learn how to prevent burnout, balance their nervous systems, and sustain long-term growth without crashing. KEY TAKEAWAYS Self-sabotage is often a biological crash: What many entrepreneurs label as "self-sabotage" is actually the nervous system trying to restore order after an overwhelming surge of dopamine and epinephrine. Your money behaviour is wired into your DNA: Our ability to handle risk, stress, and wealth growth is heavily influenced by inherited neurotransmitter profiles rather than just mindset. Mastery requires balancing all four brain types: True financial stability and personal well-being come from integrating the Chaser, Protector, Receiver, and Bridge Builder profiles rather than operating solely from one dominant state. Objective brain training beats subjective belief work: Lasting behavioural change comes from regulating the nervous system through vagal toning, balanced goal setting, and bio-individual lifestyle adjustments. BEST MOMENTS "Your beliefs are secondary to the neurotransmitters and the experiences you've had in the past based on your DNA." "It's not that there's self-sabotage happening... from a neurochemistry standpoint, you have epinephrine and norepinephrine balancing out this massive surge of dopamine that the body can't maintain anymore." "You're using a 20-year-old brain for a 50-year-old body... That's creating a gap, and the biology tells you that." "When do you stop doing this brain training? Never. When do you stop lifting weights? When do you stop optimising? Never." VALUABLE RESOURCES Want to grow and scale your business?

If a brand is no longer what a company says it is, but the sum of every experience a customer has, what does that mean for the marketing department's role in the organization?Agility requires more than just adapting to market changes; it demands a fundamental shift from broadcasting a message to engineering an experience. It requires a willingness to unlearn old definitions of brand and embrace a new reality where customer perception is the ultimate truth.Today, we're going to talk about what some are calling a "reformation" in branding. It's a move away from the traditional model of logos, slogans, and campaigns, and toward a new understanding where the brand is the cumulative effect of every single customer interaction. This shift has massive implications for organizational structure, strategy, and how we measure success.To help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome, Lou Carbone, Professor of Practice, Michigan State University & Founder/Chief Experience Officer at Experience Engineering.

This is a spoiler-filled review and discussion of Obsession (2026), directed by Curry Barker and starring Inde Navarrette and Michael Johnston, covering the film's themes, performances, and ending. Obsession is finally on digital — and Inde Navarrette's performance as Nikki is going to haunt you. Brian and John are joined by returning guest Jordan the Grey Witch to break down Curry Barker's indie horror hit that's outgrossing studio tentpoles on a fraction of the budget — including why Bear might have the most punchable face in horror this year. We cover why this "nice guy" is actually the real monster of the movie, the wish-stick logic and how it compares to Monkey's Paw-style horror, our favorite "holy sh*t" scenes, how Obsession stacks up against Twilight Zone's "The Chaser" and Tales from the Crypt, and why original horror is quietly beating the box office right now. Plus: our Letterboxd reviews segment — including a trivia-night warning you need to hear. No spoiler-free zone here — full spoilers ahead once we get past the setup, so watch or listen to the movie first if you're avoiding them.

What if the infinite shelf of e-commerce hasn't made customers more confident, but has instead created a new kind of friction: the paralysis of endless choice?Agility requires brands to shift their focus from simply providing more options to actively helping customers navigate them.Today, we're going to talk about:- Understanding the modern customer journey when discovery is no longer the primary problem.- Building value as a "decision layer" that sits on top of commerce, rather than competing with it.- Using AI not just for personalization, but for simplification and decision support.To help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome, Dan Bennett, CMO, and Alexandra Seaman, Co-Founder and SVP at Furniture.com.About Dan BennettDan Bennett is Chief Marketing Officer and founding team member at Furniture.com, where he's reshaping furniture retail through AI, data, and an open marketplace model.

How much of your marketing and CX investment is being undermined in the final mile by a sales conversation that goes off the rails?Agility requires our customer-facing teams do more than recite a script; they need the situational awareness to navigate complex conversations in real time. This capability isn't just a sales skill—it's a critical component of the overall customer experience.Today, we're talking about the gap between traditional sales training and real-world performance. Most reps forget the majority of what they learn, and classroom theory often fails to prepare them for the pressure and unpredictability of live buyer interactions. We'll explore how AI-powered simulation is moving beyond static role-play to create deliberate practice environments where teams can build the muscle memory needed for high-stakes conversations.To help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome, Sam Dorison, Co-founder and Chief Executive Officer at ReflexAI.

In a world of infinite entertainment choices, how does a sports franchise earn a fan's loyalty when the game isn't being played?Agility requires meeting fans where they are, with the right message at the right moment, whether they're on their couch or in their seat.

With every vendor claiming their platform is a revolutionary AI silver bullet, how do enterprise leaders distinguish between genuine innovation and what's essentially just marketing hype wrapped in a new algorithm?Agility requires a clear-eyed strategy for adopting new technologies, especially AI, focusing on practical outcomes over speculative promises.Today, we're going to talk about moving past the theoretical promise of AI and into its practical application for enterprise marketing. We'll discuss:- How to demystify AI for the broader marketing organization so your teams can actually use it.- Moving beyond theory to discuss tangible applications that drive efficiency and better customer experiences.- Why a solid data foundation isn't just important for AI, but is the absolute prerequisite for its success.To help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome, Daniella Harkins, SVP, Product GTM at LiveRamp.

It can feel lonely, frustrating, and even hopeless.In this episode, we're joined by marriage expert Dr. Lee Baucom, creator of the Save the Marriage System, to discuss one of the most common questions couples face:What do you do when you want to save the relationship, but your partner doesn't?Dr. Baucom shares why many couples unintentionally "hit pause" on their relationship while focusing on careers, parenting, finances, and life's endless responsibilities—and why that pause can slowly create distance and disconnection over time.Together, we explore:Why relationships don't stay still—they either grow or drift apartThe hidden dangers of the "pause button marriage"The difference between fault and responsibilityWhy one partner often recognizes relationship problems before the otherThe "Chaser, Spacer, and Pacer" dynamic and how it impacts connectionWhy forcing connection often pushes a partner further awayHow to become more invitational instead of reactiveThe role of self-management during relationship stressCommon misunderstandings around stonewalling, gaslighting, and emotional distanceHow to know when it's time to keep trying—and when it's time to let goWe also share personal stories from our own marriage, including how overwhelm, resentment, and parenting stress challenged our relationship and what helped us find our way back to each other.Whether you're feeling disconnected, discouraged, or simply wondering if your relationship can recover, this conversation offers practical guidance, hope, and a reminder that meaningful change often starts with one person choosing a different path.About Dr. Lee BaucomDr. Lee Baucom is the creator of the Save the Marriage System and a nationally recognized expert in relationship resilience and marital recovery.
