In this episode of OnBase, host Paul Gibson sits down with Callum Brodie to explore the evolution of content marketing in B2B and why every brand today needs “content with a pulse.” Drawing on his unique background in journalism, Callum explains how storytelling, empathy, and a genuine understanding of the audience's “why” can help brands build trust and long-term relationships.The conversation dives into the shift from promotional messaging to value-driven narratives, the importance of human stories in corporate content, and how to sustain momentum in audience-first marketing. Callum also discusses how AI is reshaping creative industries and how to balance automation with human creativity.Listeners will gain practical insights into building brand trust, uncovering authentic stories, and fostering a “drumbeat” approach to content that resonates with customers across every stage of the funnel.Key TakeawaysTrust is the foundation of engagement Before driving conversions, brands must earn audience trust through transparency, relevance, and empathy. Effective storytelling begins with understanding what truly keeps customers awake at night.From promotion to purpose B2B brands must move beyond slogans and focus on substance. The best content educates, informs, and inspires rather than sells.The power of human stories Even in B2B, emotion drives connection. Every product, service, or technology has a human benefit behind it, marketers just need to uncover and tell those stories.The “five whys” framework By continuously asking why, from the first content idea to campaign execution, marketers can reveal the root motivations and create more impactful storytelling.The drumbeat approach Consistency is critical. A steady rhythm of content distribution across channels sustains engagement and trust over time.AI as a creative partner, not a replacement AI can amplify productivity and ideation, but it will never replace human intuition or creativity. The key lies in using tools like ChatGPT strategically while maintaining editorial rigorQuotes“An effective piece of content marketing should leave the audience more informed and engaged. They may not be ready to buy, but you've taken that first step toward trust.”Resource RecommendationsBlog:Seth Godin's Daily Blog –  For concise, thought-provoking insights.Neil Patel's Blog – For SEO and digital strategy.Books:Powerful B2B Content by Gay Flashman – A guide to impactful storytelling in B2B marketing.Shout-outsGay Flashman, Founder, Formative and Author of Powerful B2B Content.Neil Patel, Digital Marketing Expert and Author.Aniket Mendaka, CMO at Firstsource Solutions.About the GuestCallum Brodie is a seasoned multimedia business journalist with extensive experience in the insurance industry.

Tucker Carlson continues to maintain a significant presence in conservative media and politics through various activities and appearances. On Tuesday, October 21st, 2025, Carlson appeared at Indiana University Auditorium as part of the Turning Point USA "This Is the Turning Point Tour." The event, which began at 6:30 PM with doors opening at 5:30 PM, drew significant attendance and was notable for being the first event of the tour following the death of Charlie Kirk, the organization's founder. Governor Mike Braun also appeared alongside Carlson at this event. All available tickets for the event were claimed in advance, leading organizers to establish standby lines for both students and the general public beginning at 4:30 PM on the day of the event.Carlson's ongoing media ventures continue to attract attention and investment. His partnership with Neil Patel on the Tucker Carlson Network has garnered backing from 1789 Capital, a venture capital firm. The network utilizes Twitter as a primary platform where Carlson posts videos including monologues, interviews, and documentaries. This digital-first approach represents a significant shift from traditional cable news formats.In February of this year, Fox Corporation acquired Red Seat Ventures, a digital media company that manages business concerns for independent news personalities including Carlson, along with other former Fox News figures like Megyn Kelly and Bill O'Reilly. This acquisition signals Fox's continued interest in maintaining relationships with content creators who have left traditional broadcast platforms.Carlson has recently become embroiled in a public dispute with fellow conservative media personality Mark Levin over foreign policy, specifically regarding Iran. The conflict escalated when Trump's special envoy to the Middle East, Steve Witkoff, criticized the "neocon element" for believing that war is the only solution to international problems. Levin took offense and suggested that the term "neocon" is a pejorative for Jewish people. Carlson responded by questioning this interpretation, noting that Witkoff himself is Jewish.The dispute intensified when Levin visited the White House lobbying for military action against Iran. Carlson shared a lengthy post criticizing Levin's position, arguing that claims about Iran being weeks away from building nuclear weapons are false and have been repeated since the 1990s without credible intelligence to support them. Carlson wrote that many Americans would die during a war with Iran and criticized those pushing for Iran to give up all uranium enrichment, knowing the country would never accept such demands. Carlson's post on this issue received over 5.4 million views, demonstrating his continued influence in shaping conservative opinion on foreign policy matters.In a more unusual development, Carlson recently conducted an interview with Elizabeth Lane, a pundit from the former Soviet republic of Georgia who has fewer than 20,000 followers on social media. The interview, conducted at Carlson's Maine cabin in early October, raised eyebrows among other conservative media figures who questioned why someone of Carlson's prominence would interview a relatively unknown personality. Lane, who has expressed admiration for Vladimir Putin, serves as chief operating officer of Unifyd TV, a new right-wing streaming platform. The interview helped boost Lane's profile significantly, with the video garnering over a quarter million views on YouTube. According to court records, Unifyd TV has received millions of dollars in funding from the promotion of a controversial device called the "Light System" or "EESystem," which supporters claim can cure various ailments, though these claims lack scientific validation.Reports have also emerged suggesting that Laura Loomer has been advising President Trump to distance himself from certain MAGA figures, including Carlson, though the specifics and impact of this advice remain unclear.Carlson's current net worth is estimated between 30 and 50 million dollars, built through decades in media, publishing, and investing. His income streams include TV and streaming contracts, subscription content and podcast revenue, book advances and royalties, speaking fees from live events, and various partnerships and advertising deals. He holds real estate properties across Maine, Florida, and Washington D.C., along with equity in the Tucker Carlson Network and various market investments.Thank you for tuning in to the Tucker Carlson News Tracker podcast.

In this episode, Eric breaks down the evolution of SEO beyond keywords and backlinks, revealing why “search everywhere optimization” is the new essential strategy.

Listeners, in the latest developments, Tucker Carlson has continued to stir headlines on multiple fronts, weaving together controversy, public statements, and fresh media ventures. Just this week, Carlson appeared on the “Culture Apothecary” podcast, where he leveled direct criticism at his former employer, Fox News, calling the network “anti-Christian.” During the conversation, he shared that his wife celebrated his firing from Fox, labeling the network's atmosphere as fundamentally opposed to Christian values. Carlson also argued that openly discussing the plight of Christians in the West Bank would be grounds for dismissal at Fox, reinforcing his broader claim about the network's culture.Meanwhile, on the live stage, Carlson is set to headline an event for Turning Point USA at Indiana University on October 21, with all available tickets already claimed—marking the strong demand for his ongoing public appearances. This event, part of a broader campus tour, positions him as a major figure on the conservative speaking circuit, where he continues to shape discourse among younger conservatives.On the digital front, Carlson's media operation remains a notable fixture within the emerging alternative conservative media landscape. His partnership with Neil Patel on the Tucker Carlson Network continues to attract attention and investment. One major backer is 1789 Capital, a venture capital firm with distinctly “anti-woke” and “America First” priorities, which counts Donald Trump Jr. among its newest partners. 1789 Capital reported over $860 million in assets this September and has publicly declared its commitment to building a parallel conservative economy, investing in technology, defense, and online platforms—including Carlson's network.Recently, investigative journalists from the Wall Street Journal have filed broad Freedom of Information Act requests concerning 1789 Capital, signaling that Carlson's business universe is attracting scrutiny at the highest levels, tied closely to questions about political influence and potential conflicts of interest during the Trump administration.As for his role in ongoing policy debates, Carlson has escalated a public feud with conservative media rival Mark Levin over US policy on Iran. Carlson criticized Levin's advocacy for a hardline, interventionist approach, accusing him of promoting another regime-change war and arguing forcefully—on his X profile recently seen by millions—that there is “zero credible intelligence” supporting claims that Iran is close to building a nuclear weapon. This posture has made Carlson a leader among right-wing voices opposing US military involvement abroad, in sharp contrast to longstanding neoconservative positions.Social media continues to be Carlson's primary vehicle for amplifying his views, whether he's critiquing US support for Ukraine or voicing skepticism about America's interventions in the Middle East. Recently, alongside Alex Jones, he decried Donald Trump's renewed support for Ukraine and Tomahawk missile shipments, while again casting Ukrainian President Zelensky as an “unelected dictator.” This evolving stance underscores Carlson's shift into an anti-war, populist lane distinct from pro-establishment conservative voices.Finally, reactions to Carlson's comments and activities remain highly polarized. Critics point to his close associations with figures like Alex Jones and his frequent alignment with Russian interests, while supporters see him as a vital check on establishment narratives, both in the media and in Washington. Ongoing debates continue about the extent of his influence on Republican policy, especially as new conservative influencers, many of whom oppose further US wars, rise to prominence.Thanks for listening to the Tucker Carlson News Tracker podcast.

How are they doing it? What makes one brand's YouTube presence a 24/7 salesperson while others struggle to stand out in the algorithm?According to Ian Garlic, a top video marketing strategist and creator of the “YouTube Closer” system, success stems from understanding how modern buyers make decisions long before they ever talk to sales.

Tucker Carlson has quickly emerged at the forefront of major conservative events this fall, especially as he steps in to replace Charlie Kirk for the upcoming Turning Point USA tour stop at Indiana University scheduled for October 21 at 6:30 p.m. This shift follows the shocking assassination of Kirk, which made national headlines and prompted Erika Kirk, Charlie's widow, to take over the organization as CEO and continue his campus tour legacy. With Carlson now joining the tour alongside figures like Megyn Kelly and Glenn Beck, his influence as a public speaker remains robust and highly visible.On the media front, Carlson continues to grow his post-Fox News enterprises. According to The Wall Street Journal, he and Neil Patel are actively raising significant capital—reportedly seeking hundreds of millions—to launch a new media company with a primary focus on subscription-based longer-form videos distributed via Twitter, now called X. This effort builds on the momentum of his show "Tucker on X," which has achieved substantial viewership. Episodes such as his interview with Andrew Tate have stirred continued debate, showing Carlson's willingness to engage with controversial guests and topics.His latest professional developments include launching "The Tucker Carlson Show" podcast in May, which quickly surged in popularity and ranked as the top political podcast on Spotify by July. Yet, his approach continues to attract intense scrutiny. For example, Carlson's September interview with Darryl Cooper, whose commentary included Holocaust denial and revisionist views, prompted swift backlash. White House officials and all Democratic Jewish members of Congress publicly condemned Carlson for providing a platform to such rhetoric, with Republican figures joining to denounce the segment and its historical distortions. These controversies underscore a persistent debate over Carlson's influence on political discourse, media standards, and misinformation—issues amplified by his choices of guests and topics.On the legal front, no major new lawsuits or settlements have surfaced tied to Carlson in recent days, though discussion persists about the professional ramifications of his Fox News departure, earlier legal entanglements, and responses from networks and advertisers. Meanwhile, public speculation remains about his income and net worth. Reliable estimates place his wealth between $30 and $50 million, a figure bolstered by old family money and media success but marked by increasing uncertainty since he left Fox News—the lack of transparency in his new media earnings continues to fuel rumors and debate.Interactions with other public figures have been highly significant. Carlson is set to appear with prominent conservative speakers, and his recent interviews have drawn commentary from figures like Elon Musk and White House spokespersons. His media ventures and public statements carry outsized weight in right-wing political circles and beyond, making him a lightning rod for both supporters and critics.Thank you for listening to the Tucker Carlson News Tracker podcast.

Tucker Carlson has been active in the news, making headlines for his bold commentary and involvement in a high-profile fundraiser. In a recent video message, Carlson did not hold back, criticizing what he calls the unchecked power of elite interests and government bureaucracy in America. He warned that multiculturalism, in his view, is a dangerous social experiment that threatens societal cohesion, and insisted that democracy is being undermined by forces beyond the control of ordinary citizens. His message—delivered without apology—emphasized that America is at risk unless these issues are addressed, stirring significant conversation across political circles.In other major news, Carlson and Neil Patel announced the creation of a fundraiser to support the family of Charlie Kirk, the political activist who was assassinated while speaking at Utah Valley University. Carlson and Patel personally seeded the fundraiser with $1 million from ALP Pouch, Tucker's nicotine product brand, and promoted the campaign widely on social media. While many praised this effort as a show of solidarity, others criticized Carlson for linking the fundraiser to his nicotine brand, calling it inappropriate or opportunistic. Amidst this, the FBI is continuing its investigation into Kirk's murder, circulating images of a person of interest and offering a $100,000 reward for information leading to an arrest.Carlson also appeared in a widely discussed interview with Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI. In a challenging exchange, Carlson pressed Altman about the suspicious death of former OpenAI researcher Suchir Balaji, questioning the official ruling of suicide and highlighting details from Balaji's family that suggest foul play. The interview sparked debate among tech insiders and the broader public on transparency and accountability in powerful technology companies, further amplifying Carlson's reputation as a hard-hitting interviewer unafraid to question authority.On the professional front, Carlson's media ventures continue to attract attention. His nicotine pouch company, ALP, was in the spotlight because of the Kirk fundraiser. Meanwhile, the Tucker Carlson Network remains active, with new shows and digital content continuing to draw significant viewership and spark debate on media influence and political partisanship. Industry watchers are also monitoring Carlson's role in shaping the direction of alternative media, especially as Fox News undergoes yet another revamp of its weekend programming and continues to adapt to his absence in the prime-time lineup.Discussions about Carlson's influence—both positive and controversial—continue. His recent statements and actions have been met with mixed reactions from the public, media colleagues, and political figures. Some see him as a whistleblower calling attention to uncomfortable truths; others argue his comments stoke division and alarmism. Carlson's interactions with other high-profile personalities, such as Sam Altman and Neil Patel, reinforce his position as a major force in conservative media and political commentary.Thanks for listening to the Tucker Carlson News Tracker podcast.

Tucker Carlson has dominated headlines over the past few days with multiple high-profile moves and provocative statements. Most recently, Carlson and Senator Ted Cruz engaged in a heated public exchange over whether the United States should support Israel in potential military strikes against Iran. Their clash, widely covered by CBS News, has highlighted growing disagreements within pro-Trump conservative circles about the future of American foreign policy, especially in the volatile Middle East.Carlson continues to generate attention with his Tucker Carlson Network, now bolstered by significant investment from the pro-Trump venture fund 1789 Capital. According to reporting from Fortune and Bilyonaryo, these funds have helped solidify the network as one of the central new-media outlets promoting conservative and pro-Trump content, aiming to redirect mainstream conversation and provide an alternative to conventional cable news. Carlson and his business partner have also been using the platform to launch new shows and paid content, which Carlson claims gives subscribers direct access to his “personal inbox” as part of building his own independent media ecosystem.In terms of his latest public appearances, Carlson has drawn global focus for his exclusive interviews with influential world leaders—including Vladimir Putin and the Prime Minister of Qatar. His interview with Putin triggered international debate after the Russian president used the opportunity to suggest renewed negotiations for the release of Wall Street Journal reporter Evan Gershkovich, who remains detained in Russia. The Qatari interview, meanwhile, featured the Prime Minister defending Qatar's role in Mideast ceasefire talks and pushing back against claims the country supports terrorism, effectively using Carlson's show as a platform to shape global narratives.Carlson has also just released a controversial five-part documentary series on the September 11 attacks. In the series, he directly challenges the official 9/11 commission narrative, describing it as a political cover-up designed to benefit neoconservative interests in the Bush administration. The series has already sparked outrage among critics who cite Carlson's own previous denunciations of 9/11 conspiracy theories. This shift has been widely discussed online, with social media users and commentators scrutinizing the documentary's assertions, particularly its suggestions of foreign government involvement and accusations of a broad cover-up. Video clips of the show have gone viral, further fueling debates about the boundaries between free inquiry, sensationalism, and disinformation in modern media.Outside of media content, Carlson has been in the public eye for philanthropic efforts following the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk. Working with Neil Patel, Carlson announced a $1 million fundraiser—partly funded by his nicotine brand ALP—to support Kirk's widow and two children. The move received an outpouring of support but also criticism, as some detractors accused Carlson of self-promotion by associating his product with the tragedy.These developments come amid ongoing debate about Carlson's influence on the American right and his efforts to shape a parallel conservative economy. With 1789 Capital and other new funding streams, Carlson is increasingly seen not just as a commentator but as a power player building long-term infrastructure for pro-Trump and anti-establishment media. At the same time, he remains a lightning rod for criticism from established media and some fellow conservatives, especially as he pushes the boundaries on controversial topics and takes on former allies.Thanks for listening to the Tucker Carlson News Tracker podcast.

Tucker Carlson continues to generate headlines in both media and political circles, with the past week seeing several noteworthy developments. According to the Wall Street Journal, Carlson and longtime business partner Neil Patel are actively raising funds for a new media company they hope will become a major player in the subscription-based video content space, with a core presence on Twitter, now X. The venture aims to provide both free short-form content and exclusive, longer episodes behind a paywall, building on the success of his Twitter-hosted show Tucker on Twitter, which has already featured interviews with public figures like Andrew Tate and drawn tens of millions of viewers.Reports indicate Carlson and Patel have been in talks with potential investors, targeting hundreds of millions in funding, and have held meetings with executives at Twitter itself to discuss the future of the platform and the integration of their media offerings. The new company is being structured to leverage multiple platforms, including dedicated websites and mobile apps, reflecting an ambition to capture audiences outside traditional cable news and social media silos. Fortune recently reported that the conservative venture fund 1789 Capital, whose noteworthy backers include Rebekah Mercer and Blake Masters, has invested in Tucker Carlson's company Last Country Inc., boosting both its financial backing and its credibility in the conservative media landscape.Carlson remains a lightning rod for commentary and analysis. A recent Fox News segment discussed his influence in shaping right-wing discourse, noting his transition from legacy cable to digital-first dominance. Conservative outlets continue to amplify his interviews and statements, while progressive critics scrutinize both his message and the broader media ecosystem he is shaping. While some detractors view his approach as polarizing, others argue that he has redefined what it means to be influential on the American right, directly reaching audiences without network gatekeepers.Legally and professionally, there have been no major controversies or lawsuits involving Carlson in the past week. His ongoing break with Fox News, after being ousted last year following a high-profile defamation lawsuit settlement, is often referenced as a turning point in the media and business arcs he is now pursuing. Also of note, his partnership with Neil Patel—who co-founded the Daily Caller with Carlson and has a longstanding reputation in conservative media—underscores Carlson's commitment to independently-owned platforms free from traditional network constraints.In political and cultural debates, Carlson's commentary continues to spark strong reactions, particularly among supporters of populist conservatism. He is frequently discussed at policy-oriented events like the National Conservatism Conference, where his views on immigration, free speech, and foreign policy are seen as influential among grassroots activists and emerging political leaders. At these conferences and in his public statements, Carlson has positioned himself as a leading critic of what he calls "mainstream media groupthink" and advocates policies drawing from nationalist and anti-globalist perspectives.Carlson also maintains high-profile public interactions with prominent figures on the right, from political strategists to legislators and commentators, drawing both admiration and criticism. No especially contentious exchanges or feuds have surfaced this week, with most coverage centering on his ambitious business plans, ongoing interviews, and his role as a defining voice in the evolving media-political environment.Thank you for listening to the Tucker Carlson News Tracker podcast, and don't forget to subscribe.

In this episode of the eCommerce Marketing Podcast, host Arlen Robinson chats with Jesse Kay, founder and CEO of ViberMedia, about the proven strategies behind building, scaling, and monetizing an email and SMS list to over 200,000 subscribers. Jesse shares how he launched his first podcast at 16, built his agency from the ground up, and now helps 8- and 9-figure brands achieve profitable digital growth. The conversation dives deep into common mistakes brands make with list-building, how to implement self-liquidating funnels, and a real-world case study where a welcome series alone drove over $400K in revenue. Key Episode Takeaways: Jesse Kay started his entrepreneurial journey by launching a podcast at 16 and now runs a successful performance marketing agency. Email and SMS remain highly profitable channels—especially when properly integrated. Many brands, even large ones, fail at basic setup steps like correct form integrations and automation triggers. Using a multi-step popup form can significantly increase opt-ins. Segmenting your list by engagement and product interest dramatically improves deliverability and conversions. Automations like welcome series, cart abandonment, and post-purchase flows can drive 40%+ of email revenue. Brands can build a 200K+ list cost-effectively without relying heavily on paid ads. Consistent email sends—especially to your most engaged subscribers—are critical for staying top-of-mind. SMS should be used in sync with email to create a cohesive customer experience. Jesse's case study: Grew a sporting goods brand's list to 146K subscribers and $400K+ in welcome flow revenue using Facebook lead ads and smart automations.

In this episode of the E-commerce Marketing Podcast, host Arlen Robinson speaks with Behdad Jamshidi, founder of C Jam Marketing, about the critical aspects of hiring marketing agencies. Behdad shares his journey from engineering to marketing matchmaking, emphasizing the importance of understanding agency backgrounds, identifying red flags, and assessing one's own marketing needs.

With revenue projected to exceed $1 million, Matthew attributes much of the company's success to a disciplined marketing approach, robust systems, and clearly defined processes. He also opens up about the realities of cash flow management, the importance of professional development, and the enduring value of mentorship in sustaining business growth. Why would you wait any longer to start living the lifestyle you signed up for? Balance your health, wealth, relationships and business growth. And focus your time and energy and make the most of this year. Let's get into it by clicking here. Troy delves into our guest's startup journey, their perception of success, industry reconsideration, and the pivotal stress point during business expansion. They discuss the joys of small business growth, vital entrepreneurial habits, and strategies for team building, encompassing wins, blunders, and invaluable advice. And a snapshot of the final five Grow A Small Business Questions: What do you think is the hardest thing in growing a small business? According to Matthew Whyatt, the hardest part of growing a small business is avoiding distractions and staying focused on what truly drives long-term success. He stresses the temptation of chasing "shiny objects"—the latest tools, trends, or business ideas—that can derail progress. Instead, he believes in the importance of discipline, consistency, and nurturing the core business strategy. Using the metaphor of letting the oak tree grow from the acorn you planted, he emphasizes the need to water, tend, and build structure and systems around the business rather than relying on short-term tactics or quick wins. What's your favorite business book that has helped you the most? Matthew Whyatt mentions several impactful business books, but one of his favorites that has helped him the most is The Greatest Salesman in the World by Og Mandino. He appreciates it for its powerful lessons wrapped in a fable format. He also highlights The Goal by Eliyahu Goldratt, which offers valuable insights into process thinking and business systems, and says that thinking of a business like a manufacturing process can significantly improve throughput and efficiency. These books have deeply influenced his approach to sales, systems, and business strategy. Are there any great podcasts or online learning resources you'd recommend to help grow a small business? Matthew Whyatt recommends several valuable podcasts and online learning resources for growing a small business. He highlights Dale Beaumont's Business Blueprint as particularly impactful, noting its structured, systems-focused approach and strong community of business owners. He also mentions learning a lot from thought leaders like Alex Hormozi and Neil Patel, especially around marketing and personal branding. In terms of podcasts, he recommends checking out Nathan Latka's podcast, which focuses on SaaS businesses and digs deep into financials and growth strategies—ideal for those in the tech and software space. What tool or resource would you recommend to grow a small business? Matthew Whyatt recommends your calendar as the most powerful tool for growing a small business. He emphasizes the importance of scheduling tasks with discipline and structure to maintain consistency and productivity. In addition, he suggests exploring AppSumo to find lifetime deals on useful business tools, helping reduce the burden of monthly subscriptions while still accessing high-quality software for marketing, automation, and operations. These resources, combined with disciplined execution, can significantly enhance small business growth. What advice would you give yourself on day one of starting out in business? Matthew Whyatt's advice to his younger self on day one of starting out in business would be: “It's all going to be okay.” This simple yet powerful message reflects his belief in trusting the journey, staying resilient through challenges, and focusing on long-term growth rather than immediate outcomes. It encapsulates the importance of patience, perspective, and perseverance in entrepreneurship. Book a 20-minute Growth Chat with Troy Trewin to see if you qualify for our upcoming course.
