Can you build Brand Advocacy in punchlines?John Thornton thinks so. Kind of.Verity sits down with Surreal's Senior Creative (and ex-Innocent wordsmith) to break down how brand voice becomes a business asset, how humour fuels loyalty, and why you should definitely check your QR codes before a campaign launch.This isn't another chat about tone of voice. It's a behind-the-scenes on…The truth about "funny" copy that drives action.What most brands misunderstand about distinctiveness.The forgotten value of comments, not campaigns.Why authenticity is less about saying the right thing, and more about knowing your place (and being flexible on your fonts).John shares the good, the bad, and the copy & collaborations that helped Surreal drive major awareness. Innocent, too. Whether you're a brand builder, copywriter or just here for the laughs, there's no fluff; just real talk from someone who knows how to make cereal & smoothies go viral.Turn it up to learn:How to Create Copy that Converts, Sans-Corporate Feel: When the tone's too polished, people scroll past.

Let's break down how to push boundaries without blowing up trust, or approval chains.Why People Love Brands that Hire the “Idiot on Twitter”: It's not about polish, it's about presence. John explains why fast, scrappy, weirdly human replies build more loyalty than a year's worth of branded templates.

Advocacy sticks around.

Paul Cornell (Doctor Who, Elementary) and Lizbeth Myles (Big Finish, Verity!), discuss the Science Fiction and Fantasy television made in the UK every year from 1953 to the present day. In this episode, we discuss two episodes of HG Wells' The Invisible Man (1958), as well as an entry from Armchair Theatre titled "I Can Destroy The Sun" (also 1958).
The last episode of season two has aired and been reviewed, which means it's time for the wrap-up episode! Kat, Liz, and Tansy have gathered to give their opinion on Ncuti's time as the Doctor, the wonderful companion Belinda Chandra, and create their wishlists for the future of Doctor Who. As for the future of Verity! the podcast is taking a break for now, but we'll let you know what's next as soon as we know. Lynne and Erika couldn't make the episode, but they've given their Doctor Who future wishlists: Erika's Wishlist: 1. I want MORE WRITERS! My favourite eps have been the non-RTD eps, and I would like more of those (preferably from a very diverse set of writers). 2. I want new blood at the helm -- someone who grew up on the modern series not the classic series. And for the love of Susan, not a white dude, please. 3. Speaking of Susan, I'd like Carole Ann Ford to get an actual, proper appearance that genuinely works and isn't weird nonsense. (Yes, I'm referring to both her onscreen appearances and the rumours of what was supposed to happen before the rewrites. I think it's all nonsense.) Lynne's Wishlist: 1. I wish that the BBC would openly recognize Doctor Who as a unique and wonderful thing that only the BBC could have created and be proud of it instead of treating it more often than not as something they grudgingly tolerate. 2. I wish for a sufficient number of well-crafted episodes to directly match up with the time and money that are available to create them. 3. I wish for more bold and inclusive storytelling. This season felt like Doctor Who was starting to find its groove again, and I would hate to lose that momentum. 4. BRING BACK RIVER SONG! Dearest listener, what does your wishlist for Doctor Who look like? What have we missed in our reviews? Leave us a comment or join the discussion on Instagram and Bluesky. Listen to Liz (and Paul's) podcast Telefantasy Time Jump! ^K
A lot has been happening since our last podcast, so let me catch you up a bit. First, our church, Grace City Church Tokyo, celebrated its 15th anniversary this past Sunday on Pentecost Sunday, June 8, 2025. We started weekly worship exactly 15 years ago, and it's been quite a journey since, which became real to all of us watching the presentation we made of pictures over the years and seeing my own children as little kids. Two of them are now in college. A lot of time has passed since this church started. And to just think about all the things that we've gone through over the past years. There was a lot of pain, but a lot of joy as well. And it was so exciting to celebrate that together with this community. We're so thankful for how God has blessed over these years. ...

Helen McNicoll was a Canadian painter who had a significant influence on the rise of Impressionism in that country. McNicoll, who lost her hearing in childhood, was quite successful as an artist, though her career and life were short.
