Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's relationship was still only a fresh rumor in 2023, when State Farm brought together Travis' mother, Donna Kelce, and Jake from State Farm at an NFL game.On a new episode of The Big Impression, State Farm's Patty Morris dives into how the company quickly capitalized on the opportunity despite being risk-averse.  Episode TranscriptPlease note, this transcript  may contain minor inconsistencies compared to the episode audio.Damian Fowler (00:00):I'm Damian Fowler.Ilyse Liffreing (00:01):And I'm Ilyse Liffreing,Damian Fowler (00:02):And welcome to this edition of The Big Impression.Ilyse Liffreing (00:09):Today we're diving into one of the most buzzworthy brand moments in recent memory when Jake from State Farm crashed the Taylor Swift NFL multiverse in a way only he could.Damian Fowler (00:20):Our guest is Patty Morris, head of brand at State Farm. Patty and her team turned a viral cultural moment into a strategic marketing win from the sidelines of an NFL game to the front lines of CTV social and beyond.Ilyse Liffreing (00:34):We're talking about that famous seat swap with Mama Kelsey, and then digging into why Jake keeps showing up in all the right places and how State Farm is rewriting the playbook on building a culturally fluent brand.Damian Fowler (00:47):So let's get into it. We're going to go back to the fall of 2023 when Taylor Swift shows up at a chiefs game and sits next to Mama Kelsey and days later, Jake from State Farm's. In that seat, could you take us behind the scenes and how the idea came together so quickly?Patty Morris (01:07):Okay. Well first let me just back us up a little bit. Okay. State Farm is 103 year old, brand 103, so we have certain ways of doing things,Ilyse Liffreing (01:19):A lot of legacy there right?Patty Morris (01:19):Yes. A lot of legacy we, I think, have been successful as marketers and done a lot of great things over the decades, but we have a way of doing things and you can imagine we're an insurance company, we're risk averse, all of those things. I would just say knowing that context, how do you get from that to an agency calling you on a Friday night and saying, we have this big idea and we think you need to execute it, and it's in about 40 hours. And also it's on probably one of the biggest stages there is, and you say yes to that of course, but how do you get from A to BI think is your question. How did you make that happen? And I would just say a couple of things. One, you have to set the right conditions so that you are part of the cultural Lex Conna in a way that those opportunities come to you. And I think we had done that over time with Jake from State Farm, being really methodical about that and getting him out there in a way that people want to see him and in a way that is a best representation of our brand and allows us to be in cultural places that we otherwise couldn't without that physical brand asset.Damian Fowler (02:30):I mean, everyone obviously wanted to be part of that moment, and it's interesting that you bring up the fact that State Farm is risk averse, and yet you made it in it into that moment. Why was your connection to the Kelsey family and Jake's cultural capital so critical to making it land?Patty Morris (02:47):Yeah, I mean, I think the other context in the background around a moment like that is we've spent a long time over a decade really working to be endemic in the football landscape. Whether it was our longstanding campaign with Aaron Rogers and now Patrick Mahomes, we had brought Travis Kelsey into our football creative for the season and he was part of that work. If you remember, the Mahomes and Otto commercial was the best bundle in the league.Damian Fowler (03:15):Oh yeah, yeah, I do remember.Patty Morris (03:16):So we had all of those things working together, plus all the work we had done to make Jake from State Farm who he is, and you get this lightning moment where you have the right to be there because you have Jake and people love him, and he's a physical manifestation of an intangible product that you can put in these environments. We've built a brand that's endemic in football and is recognized in that space and just I think hats off to the creative mindset at maximum effort for calling us and saying, we think this could be a really great joyful cultural moment. And not many people could go sit in that seat next to Mama Kelsey the week after, but we think fans will love this and risk averse or not. When you hear an idea like that and you are able to put your brand in a position like that, you say yes. And if there's anybody that understands maximizing a cultural moment and doing it in the right way, I think it's maximum effort. So you trust them in that moment to do that with you. And man, we did it very quickly.Ilyse Liffreing (04:23):Very cool. Yeah, no, I know. I was just going to say it was very fast. The timing was impeccable.Patty Morris (04:30):Yeah, I think a week later it wouldn't haveIlyse Liffreing (04:32):Landed. No,Patty Morris (04:33):I agree. It had to be that weekend and just the next cultural beat right after that, and I think it really surprised people and added value to what they were seeing and during the game and just a really joyful way.Ilyse Liffreing (04:46):How quickly did it come together after the idea came into,Patty Morris (04:50):They called us on a Friday night and after a long week, a busy week said, Hey, we have this idea, but we have to make it happen on Sunday, or we don't think it'll work. And we said, we agree, but oh my gosh, how are we going to make this happen by Sunday? And so of course their next call is Jake from State Farm, are you busy? Can you be there? Can you get to New York overnight? Basically. And the actor that plays Jake, Kevin Miles is such a great partner,(05:21):He gets that call and says, what's the idea? And we tell him and he is like, well, we have to do it, we have to do that. We think so too. And he's like, then yes, I'll get there. I'll be there. So Friday night to, I can't remember what time the game was on Sunday, but wow, it was very fast and we're not used to moving that fast. That was an effort for us, but a really important moment. And I think in tipping point where we started to build some muscle around being able to capitalize on those kind of moments.Ilyse Liffreing (05:50):How long would you say campaigns usually take to come together toPatty Morris (05:54):PrepareIlyse Liffreing (05:54):A little bit?Patty Morris (05:55):It depends, right? It depends. Sometimes you plan something out and you're building something big. You do that really methodically and strategically, and it takes a while. Sometimes you're doing something that is a smaller scale and you can do that faster. But these types of things are really, we call 'em lightning in a bottle moment when it has to be, the specific parameters have to be exactly right. The stars have to align, and you have to be able to do that quickly. And so we try to work with our teams to be doing the long-term things, but also have the capacity to be able to turn and burn on a great idea when we see it. And I think that's why we've been able to hop into these cultural moments and punch above our weight as a brand because they're not paid moments, they're cultural moments that get a lot of earned attention, and that can be really powerful. Very cool.Damian Fowler (06:44):So beyond that moment, then you've got that, you capture that lining moment, then what do you do and how do you make it, you channel the cultural impact of that moment across the different channels going forward to maximize it?Patty Morris (07:00):First thing you do is celebrate, right? You took a risk and it landed and it paid off. And it's important to celebrate that because it can be really scary, right? I'm sure we've got this really precious, iconic brand in our hands. We've got this really precious asset in Jake from State Farm that we've worked so hard to build. And you take a risk like that. I think it's just important to celebrate when you make the right decisions and you're able to do it quickly. But we talk a lot about an equation that we have at State Farm, and it's a shift that we've made. We of course care about how many impressions we get. We of course care about our cost pers, right? All the things that we marketers have to care about and do care about. We try to focus on putting things through a lens, especially things like this through the lens of reach times engagement equals attention.(07:50):So when you get this sort of lightning moment, it's just a cultural moment that everybody's already paying attention to and you sort of are able to insert yourself into it. We have a lot of great partners that we work with, media partners, and we endemic in that football space. We knew everybody was going to look at that moment. We didn't really have to do a lot. We just had to put Jake from State Farm in the seat and everybody's attention turned to it, and it created its own 360 moment in its own way. And so the earned potential you get from that, the attention, that attention metric, syndicated headlines, engagement in social, everybody talking about it on replays and highlights, it's priceless. It's priceless. So I would say a lot of things, we have to work really hard to spread it across channels and make it 360. This was really just a matter of setting up the moment and then letting it do its thing.Ilyse Liffreing (08:46):How do you think about where Jake will show up next?Patty Morris (08:50):We actually try to be really disciplined about this. He is that physical manifestation of the promise that we sell in insurance and the relationship that we sell. And so I think the first criteria is, is it authentic to the brand and how we want him to show up, and is it demonstrating relationship and connection in the right way, and is it true to our values wherever he's going to show up? The reality also is he is one human being, so we have to manage his calendar appropriately. And Jake's a busy guy, very busy guy. He is an influencer in his own right. He's got 1.4 million followers on TikTok. The TikTok job alone is a lot. So we're pretty choiceful about where and when he shows up. So it's got to be the right fit. It's got to be an opportunity for us to really demonstrate that physical connection and we got to work it into the calendar. Yeah,Ilyse Liffreing (09:45):That's funny. So I would love to then now dig into some of your takeaways from that campaign. Were there any results, like reactions that you saw from the mom and Kelsey moment maybe in terms of brand lift or broader cultural impact?Patty Morris (10:01):Yeah, I mean, I think part of what has catapulted this branded asset into the cultural space in a way that just honestly, it's hard to measure. So of course we look at individual campaign metrics. Do we see brand lift in the body of commercial work that we put out? But in a case like this, it's harder to measure. So I think we mentioned the earned and the billions of impressions that created the engagement and the chatter online and all of that. But it's really all of those metrics combined with some of the intangibles. It's like when it comes to Jake from State Farm or our brand, we're constantly testing those assets for familiarity. So recognition and relevance, and we do it two or three times a year. And so we can see where he plots on that compared to our competitors and compared to our rest of our assets, we've got six, seven really important assets that are really familiar and we've worked really hard to build. Most brands are happy and lucky to have one or two. We've got seven of them.Damian Fowler (11:04):SoPatty Morris (11:05):That's a metric that we look at too, to say is what we're doing collectively and in cases like the Mama Kelsey moment, pushing those assets into higher recognition and higher relevance and uniqueness for our brand. And those are the metrics that we're looking at.Damian Fowler (11:22):I also want to ask you, what did you learn about your audience after the appearance and the way they engaged with Jake in that moment?Patty Morris (11:31):It's such a phenomenon to me that this character can be in a lot of different cultural places and be accepted. So we didn't know if you go sit him next to Mama Kelsey after a Taylor Swift moment, people are going to love it or they're going to hate it. It's not one of those things that maybe no one will notice and we'll just see. It's a big swing.(11:57):So I think we learned from fans that he is welcome in those cultural moments, and so that got us to have a little more confidence routes around some of the decisions we've made since then. So when you see him at Bravocon, you see him at TwitchCon, you see him at Coachella, and we do an exclusive drop with Travis Scott. And the reaction to him in those places, whether it's online and in social and how people comment and engage about it or in real life, is actually overwhelming. So many people will come up to us or we'll approach Jake, who are my kids love you. My kids won't stop talking about you. And even young kids, Jake from State Farm, they want their picture with him. So I think we've learned over time that he does have this universal appeal, and he's welcome. He's loved in these places, and so you're able to add value to people's experiences and to some of this context in a way that you just wouldn't expect from an insurance company.Ilyse Liffreing (12:55):So Jake obviously has become much more than a spokesperson. He's a TV personality at this point, and he's a spokes influencer as well.Damian Fowler (13:05):Spokes spoke.Ilyse Liffreing (13:07):Spoke.Damian Fowler (13:08):IIlyse Liffreing (13:08):Liked it. Okay. Say that three times. We need to redo this.Damian Fowler (13:11):No, no, it was good. I think it was good, the interaction. That was good.Ilyse Liffreing (13:14):Okay. The spoke flu? Yes. If you'll, I think you coined that perhaps. Maybe we did. Maybe we did maybe. But he has permission to show up anywhere, basically. How did you build that kind of brand equity?Patty Morris (13:30):I think it's a thousand little things over a long period of time. Original Jake from State Farm, that commercial was in 2011, right? So you've got a long history of equity in 2019. We recast that role and we're very specific about how we wanted to bring that to life. So I think it's been many things over a long period of time. But also I would say especially in some of these more recent cultural things, we test in small places. We test smaller things, we build competence, and then we try the next thing and you can see the reception to it. And I would say the other thing that stands out to people are his clothes. So red and khaki and his kind of uniform that he wears has also become pretty recognizable, and people talk about that a lot. And we take a lot of care in how he dresses and how he shows up.(14:23):So naturally we talk a little bit about apparel and fashion places and could he be accepted in that area and we can connect with a totally different audience that otherwise again, would not be connecting with insurance maybe. And so we test into small places. You wouldn't say, let's have Jake show up at the Met Gala right out of the gate you would say, where can we try a couple of places? So we work with gq, we send him to Vogue World and just see how does it go? He does a whole behind the scenes content series around it. He shows up there and fans loved it. They're so excited for him. They feel like he's their friend and they're just excited to see how he's moving through the world and everybody's cheering for him, rooting for him. I think you try in small places and you test in small places, you build confidence so that you can say yes to the big swings and you can just kind of know in your gut when that's right.Damian Fowler (15:15):Are you able to connect that recognition, that brand equity to business outcomes? I know people say, oh, there's Jake, in terms of actual business impact.Patty Morris (15:25):Yeah, of course. We're looking at brand awareness, especially with younger audiences. And like I said, Jake is universally loved. We're working hard to make sure we're relatable and relevant with younger audiences, especially in these big cultural moments. And we see our awareness scores being at the top of our category. We see our consideration scores and the trend of improvement over the last five, six years as we've really put Jake forward in this way and become really consistent about it. And there's also sort of the offline pieces of that, and you look at how people are talking about him online and the conversation and the performance on his TikTok and the brand lift that comes from that. So absolutely, we wouldn't be doing this if we didn't think it had profound business value. And I think we cracked the code a little bit on how to do it in a way that isn't a caricature or a mascot. It's this in-between version of it can really have a personal connection with consumers either digitally or commercially or in real life. And I think that's special about it.Damian Fowler (16:28):We're talking about maximizing impact, especially around new channels. Are there any that you are looking at in particular? Like CTV?Patty Morris (16:35):Yeah, in CTV streaming, just the collapsing of the funnel is how we talk about it. Where in a lot of these streaming environments, you're really able to pull people through an experience in a way that you couldn't before. So the connected piece of that, the data that surrounds that and how you actually make that work from a customer experience perspective in a way that can pull people through, not just from seeing your ad, but actually considering you and able to take an action in that moment is really exciting. So we are experimenting with a lot of different things and a lot of different partners. We did some really great work last year with Amazon and Thursday night football. So that to me is a super exciting area and one that I think marketers are going to be able to show results from in a way that we just haven't before, all across the funnel, which is super exciting.Ilyse Liffreing (17:27):It's hard for a lot of brands, especially legacy brands, to be so nimble and quick with their brand spokesperson. What would you say to marketers who are hesitant to take those kind of risks?Patty Morris (17:40):I would say know the places where you have to be vigilant about your brand and know the places where you can turn over your pen a little bit. And I think that's especially true just with the rise of creators and creators and influencers as a very important media channel. We've been talking about that a lot this week here and can around how brands work with creators and the partnership that you have to have because it can feel really uncomfortable as a brand to turn over your very precious thing to creators, but they know their audiences bestIlyse Liffreing (18:16):AndPatty Morris (18:16):They know what's going to work. And so it can feel scary, but you kind of have to turn over the reins a little bit and let them work and create with your brand in a way that's going to be relevant to consumers and their audiences. And so I think that is true in this context as well.Damian Fowler (18:32):To pull off a move like this, a brand has to move fast. And I'm curious just to hear from inside as it were, what structures or ways of working at State Farm made you capable first off of pulling something like this off, and then maybe what have you learned from it as a company?Patty Morris (18:47):Yeah, again, being 103, it's hard. We've got set ways of working and we have legal and compliance teams, and those are very real parameters that as a marketer you have to pay attention to. But culture waits for no one. Culture just keeps on moving. And if you really are going to capitalize on these moments as they happen, you have to be nimble in new ways. And I think it's just have the discussions, get on the phone, talk through it, is it the right thing at the right time? And is it worth taking some calculated risk because the benefit to the brand and the business is going to be strong enough to outweigh the risk. And there's no way you can do that or know that without just rolling up your sleeves and hashing through it with your team and making the best decisions you can for your brand.(19:31):And if you get it right, it can be a gold mine. If you get it wrong, it can really be hard. So I think that it is difficult and it's stressful, but for us, mama Kelsey moment was probably a tipping point where we said we have to recognize and be able to act quickly and nimbly when that makes sense. Not all the time that would be chaos, but when it makes sense and do it in a way that's going to be acceptable to our organization and feel good about that, but also in a way that is going to allow us not just to react to moments, but be moment makers. So I think we've moved on from that moment to do that in different spaces, and it's been great for the brand. That'sIlyse Liffreing (20:11):Wonderful. That was great. Now we have some rapid fire questions forPatty Morris (20:14):You. Okay. Okay.Ilyse Liffreing (20:17):So first one is a question that is a popular one for this podcast. What are you obsessed with figuring out right now?Patty Morris (20:26):Oh, so many obsessions. My biggest one right now is organic search and really just understanding how that's going to move and change with AI and generative AI and what that means for brands and how you need to show up. That landscape is changing and it's so critical to adapt to what really is consumer behavior, adapting to the consumer behavior in a way that is going to make sure we're showing up in the right places in the right ways. And it's probably one of the biggest places that I can see right now that is changing rapidly and significantly. So we're really working hard to make sure we're on top of that.Ilyse Liffreing (21:04):Yeah. On that note, are there other ways you are already using AI or experimenting with that?Patty Morris (21:10):Yeah, I mean, it's such an exciting time to be a marketer and also a little bit unsettling. And so I think like many others, we're experimenting in certain places. We've been using AI through certain things for a while, but there are other areas where we're really just experimenting. So probably the biggest is content scaling. How do you responsibly use AI to create content at scale and do that in the right way, in a compliant way? Because the unlock there is just exponential connection with consumers and personalized connection with consumers, and it has the potential to free up capacity of teams and agencies to do other things, more things, different things, which is really exciting, but we're also very focused on doing that responsibly.Ilyse Liffreing (21:59):Would you use it with Jake since the schedule is so packed?Patty Morris (22:04):That's a good question. No, not yet. Not yet. Jake. The beauty of Jake is he's a real person, and that's one of the core tenets of what we all love about him. I think we'll keep it that way for now. That's a good answer.Damian Fowler (22:18):Okay. So next, what's missing from the market from your point of view?Patty Morris (22:24):This week has been so interesting and inspirational. For me personally, and this might be a little bit weird, but my biggest takeaway from this week is making sure we're asking ourselves what are we trying to make people feel? I think as a marketer, you can just get really wrapped up in a lot of quantity over quality, and if there's anything we see here in can, it is definitely quality work from all over the world, and it's actually quite humbling and inspiring at the same time. My big takeaway and what I think might be missing is making sure we're trying to make people feel something about our brand. It's the most powerful thing you could do, I think, to move someone towards your products. And I think the balance of let's get everything done and let's get everything out there with are we making something of quality that's really going to create a consumer emotion and connect is something I'll be taking back to my team and something that I think is missing from the market.Ilyse Liffreing (23:27):Amazing. If Jake from State Farm could pop up anywhere next with zero constraints, where would you send him?Patty Morris (23:35):I would send him to my family reunion. So they will stop asking to meet Jake from State Farm. I get the question all the time, and yeah, everybody wants to meet Jake, which I love. Or you know what? Maybe I would send her to the future so he could tell us how all this is going toIlyse Liffreing (23:54):ShakePatty Morris (23:54):Out. That'd be pretty cool. Very cool. That'd be awesome.Damian Fowler (24:00):And that's it for this edition of The Big Impression.Ilyse Liffreing (24:03):This show is produced by Molten Hart. Our theme is by love and caliber, and our associate producer is Sydney Cairns.Damian Fowler (24:09):And remember,Patty Morris (24:11):Reach times engagement equals attention. Culture waits for no one.Damian Fowler (24:16):I'm Damian and(24:18):We'll see you next time.

When your politics are so bankrupt that a jeans commercial becomes your battleground, you're not running a party — you're running a group therapy session for the perpetually aggrieved. The modern Left can't distinguish between oppression and inconvenience, which is why they keep melting down over commercials while ignoring real crises like inflation, crime, and an open border that under Biden looked more like a turnstile at Coachella.This isn't satire. It's strategy. When Democrats lose on facts, they shift the playing field to feelings. And since Sydney Sweeney didn't include a diversity checklist in her denim ad, she must be the problem.

Fernando Hernández Flores, mejor conocido como El Malilla, nos comparte su increíble historia de transformación desde Valle de Chalco hasta convertirse en el primer reggaetonero mexicano en tocar en Coachella.Desde los 13 años, la música se convirtió en su escape de una realidad marcada por la violencia normalizada, donde sus tíos y primos estaban involucrados en actividades delictivas. La escuela fue su refugio, el lugar donde podía alejarse de los problemas familiares y del contexto criminal que lo rodeaba.Con valentía y honestidad brutal, El Malilla relata cómo tuvo que vender teléfonos robados para pagar sus primeras grabaciones, manteniendo en secreto su pasión musical durante años. Su historia se vuelve aún más conmovedora cuando cuenta sobre los 8 años que su hermano pasó en prisión y cómo eso marcó su decisión de no seguir ese camino.Pero esta no es solo una historia de éxito individual. El Malilla ha creado un verdadero ecosistema de reinserción social, empleando a amigos del barrio, algunos ex-delincuentes, dándoles segundas oportunidades. Su proyecto más reciente: una escuela de box gratuita en Valle de Chalco para alejar a los jóvenes de la violencia.También abordamos los desafíos que enfrentan los artistas urbanos, incluyendo los problemas migratorios que vivió para llegar a Coachella, donde las autoridades estadounidenses lo investigaron por el tipo de música que hace, evidenciando la criminalización del género.Una conversación profunda sobre música, violencia, reinserción social y la importancia de no romantizar los sueños, sino trabajar incansablemente por ellos.Para ver episodios exclusivos, entra aquí: https://www.patreon.com/Penitencia_mx¿Quieres ver los episodios antes que nadie?

Post Malone BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Post Malone continues to dominate headlines at the intersection of pop and country, making waves this week with both high-profile music releases and a slew of public appearances. The biggest news is the buzzworthy live music video for "Losers" recorded with Jelly Roll during their Seattle show, a release that fans and industry watchers alike are calling a major moment, as reported August 1 by WKXA Country. This follows continued momentum for his F-1 Trillion album, which dropped earlier this summer and boasts chart-topping singles like the Morgan Wallen duet "I Had Some Help." That collaboration is currently marking several weeks atop the Billboard Hot 100, becoming one of the most successful cross-genre singles in years, according to AOL.The album itself remains a chart presence, edging close to twenty thousand in pure activity this week as reported by Hits Daily Double, and is fueled by other star-studded collaborations featuring Blake Shelton, HARDY, and Lainey Wilson—each performance and feature widening Malone's country cred. Post has been leaning heavily into the genre, with noted appearances at country-centric events: he recently performed at Dierks Bentley's concert at Utah First Amphitheater, surprising the crowd backstage and spurring viral moments on Instagram from August 1 and August 2. He has also been seen with fans and friends backstage at multiple venues, including smaller, more intimate gatherings, which are documented widely on social media with the expected outpouring of affection and hype.On the business front, the promotional machine is running hot. Following his intimate Bluebird Cafe set alongside Lainey Wilson and Ashley Gorley, Post has announced a high-demand stadium tour for 2025—kicking off in April with support from Jelly Roll and Sierra Ferrell—and is set to headline Coachella next year, performing both Sundays. These moves underscore his ever-widening appeal across musical boundaries, with PopFiltr highlighting his impact as a genre-bridging influencer.Meanwhile, video and photo content showing Malone interacting with fans, improvising backstage, and relaxing at shows like Dierks Bentley's amplify his approachable persona, with social accounts such as postydaze and others capturing candid moments to much engagement from fans. There's no major controversy or negative coverage; instead, the headlines tilt almost entirely positive, lauding him for rewriting what it means to be a crossover superstar and cementing this period as one of the most pivotal in his evolving career narrative.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOta

This week, we're talking to Ryu Yokoi, chief media and marketing capabilities officer for North America at Unilever, about Dove's “Hot Seats” campaign — a bold, culture-hacking activation that shows up where the sweat is real and the stakes are surprisingly high.  Episode TranscriptPlease note, this transcript  may contain minor inconsistencies compared to the episode audio.Damian Fowler (00:00):I'm Damian Fowler, and welcome to this edition of The Big Impression. Today we are talking about how Unilever is breaking taboos, opening up new kinds of conversations and connecting with consumers in some unexpected places. Our guest is Ryu Yokoi Chief Media and Marketing Capabilities Officer for North America at Unilever. We're going to dive into DO'S Hot Seats campaign. It's a bold effort to normalize conversations around full body freshness and engage people across both digital and real world spaces. We'll be talking about how this campaign's activating across concerts, social, retail, and digital platforms. So let's get into it.Ryu Yokoi (00:46):It always starts with understanding our audience and also try to make our products really relevant and desirable in that context. And so the hot seats are originated from social listening within the community. And in particular, one of our, actually her name's Dana Pucci, who leads our PR and influencer work on Dove for North America is a big Charlie XCX fan. And she noted that the Incredible Sweat tour, which was driving and kind of owning the culture last summer in the brat summer, that was(01:21):Unfortunately the Sweat tour smelled not great. And it turned out that Charlie and Troy Sivan were going to be performing in Los Angeles the week before the launch of our new whole body deodorant. We kind did a takeover putting our product in the bathrooms. We sent in creators to sort of experience what a show is like when you can make sweats smell great. And the results were kind of magic because we got just unbelievable. The UVC on this and the Delight with folks attending a concert that actually smelled great was really fascinating, just fantastic response. And that week we had a really great launch of the product, first hitting the digital shells on Amazon and doing great.Damian Fowler (02:02):That sounded like a very fast activation for a campaign.Ryu Yokoi (02:06):It happened literally within 10 days.Damian Fowler (02:08):What was the war room like for that 10 days? How did you strategize to get that done?Ryu Yokoi (02:14):We always emphasize we want to build worlds instead of chasing moments. So when you have an idea of what you're trying to build with the brand, how you show up, then it becomes a lot easier.Damian Fowler (02:25):And tell me a little bit about the tone. I mean, one of you mentioned the humor element of it. Why is that real talk, that humor so key to Dove campaigns?Ryu Yokoi (02:34):Well, I think there's a real authenticity that the brand has earned. We say, oh, it's an authentic, it's only authentic if people believe it. The brand is really comfortable in its own skin. We have a sharp understanding. I think that goes beyond a positioning statement to really understanding what this brand stands for, how it shows up in real life, what it would be like if you were to meet it and still be consistent in our building of that brand means to people.Damian Fowler (03:00):Yeah, I mean, I've got to say I live in New York and I've noticed the campaign on the New York, out of digital, out of home subway screens and it just totally cuts through and I noticed it. And of course you're standing on a New York City platform in terrible heat, humidity, and everyone's sweating. It's like a perfect placement.Ryu Yokoi (03:19):Well, I would say the subway work you've seen is really telegraphing that benefit, right? If you're blessed to be next to somebody who's wearing dove on the subway, then wow, this is a good ride. We've sponsored Charlie's spring tour and we're also showing up at other festivals like Lollapalooza, which have just provide another canvas for us to tell the story.Damian Fowler (03:38):Is it a case that once the campaign's out there in the wild, it builds its own momentum? Or are you actively trying to find new events, new points of pop culture? Kind of.Ryu Yokoi (03:47):That's exactly what we're trying to find, right, is we understand that if we're able to actually become part of the discourse, we're not just broadcasting ourselves in, but actively playing a role and helping people. And we had a similar case where the first weekend of Coachella people were again, lamenting unfortunately didn't smell great, and in this case somebody not us posted saying, well, I wish Dov would come and help here. We really had a lot of fun with it. We flew a plane over Coachella the second week saying, the cavalry's coming help is on the way we hear you need.Damian Fowler (04:24):That's good.Ryu Yokoi (04:25):Some help. And we're going to be there. We lined up folks around the entrances so that folks could kind of get freshen up on the way into the show or get freshened up, and more than a thousand people took advantage of that.Damian Fowler (04:35):Now, I wanted to ask you about some of the key signals or early reads on the campaign. I'm sure you're paying close attention as you evaluate the impact. What do you look for on your dashboard, as it were?Ryu Yokoi (04:47):Right. So I think first and foremost, you're right. Measurement is the most importantDamian Fowler (04:54):Thing.Ryu Yokoi (04:54):But first and foremost, we did this the week before we were launching the product. So the first signal was did we turn well? And weDamian Fowler (05:02):Did.Ryu Yokoi (05:02):And the ramp on the product was really terrific. But I think to your point, it's really important no matter what the channel that you're playing in, what are the leading indicators that we can correlate with performance? In this case, it was one where things happened so quickly and we knew there was literally nothing else happening when we did this, and so we were able to isolate that way.Damian Fowler (05:23):Are there other channels that you are kind of thinking about or could be targeted for the campaign?Ryu Yokoi (05:31):In principle, I want to be able to capture signal everywhere. For me it's just around understanding where are people discussing whatever it is that we're trying to get into the discussion on and being authentic there. So for us, Reddit is a channel we haven't used as much in the past. Certainly now I find it increasingly of relevance for us. So we're trying to build up a skillset there,Damian Fowler (05:55):EspeciallyRyu Yokoi (05:55):Given how important it is with ais. Right.Damian Fowler (05:58):What about audio? Is thatRyu Yokoi (06:00):Podcast? Absolutely podcast. So(06:03):I would say, again, this was highly before it became something that we were rolling out in real life. Oh my goodness, the word is spectator events. Before it became something we were doing in real life as spectator events, it was a highly music driven campaign because we had decided to reboot this classic hip hop song from a few decades ago. And so it was already sort of music oriented and had played that way. But yeah, so for us it's exactly to your point. If we're talking about something that we're doing that's focusing on music or spectators, obviously audio is going to have relevance. Where are Charlie's fans actually discussing this? It turned out it was happening on Reddit. We go there, where are they discussing their experience at the concerts? We were seeing a lot of chatter on TikTok around that. And so we moved there. So we try to be nimble and agile and really be where the discourse is happening.Damian Fowler (07:07):So we're going to zoom out a little bit and just look at the big picture of the landscape beyond the campaign. But as you think about where culture is heading, whether it's wellness, inclusivity, or body confidence, what does the campaign kind of tell us about where Unilever wants to go with its brands or its kind of messaging wants to put out into the marketplace?Ryu Yokoi (07:27):We're all about building desire for our brands at scale. So we want to engage with communities wherever they are. It's about having a deep understanding of who our shopper is, what is driving desire for them, who influences them, and how we can really engage with them and create a discourse where we can try to move towards many to many communication.Damian Fowler (07:49):One of the big challenges for Marcus is balancing the long-term brand building with the short-term sales results. And do you think that there's a tension there right now in a marketplace that's very much dialed into performance?Ryu Yokoi (08:01):Listen, I think that it's really important that you have the right measurement in place and that you can understand both the short-term and long-term effects of the investments that you're making. That's something we really pride ourselves on. We want to be the most outcome oriented advertiser in the marketplace. But the other thing I would say is that more and more data signals and shopability are making it so the funnel is collapsing and we're nearing places when it comes to QR or having true shopability in stream where even executions that in the past would've been considered the most upper funnel can actually drive a transaction in that moment. And I think a future of that's really exciting.Damian Fowler (08:40):So finally, we're going to get into some of these hot seat rapid fire questions here.Ryu Yokoi (08:44):Okay,Damian Fowler (08:44):So you ready?Ryu Yokoi (08:45):Yes, let's go.Damian Fowler (08:46):Alright. What's one thing you're obsessed with figuring out right now?Ryu Yokoi (08:50):We've been talking about how much we've built out resources in this area and all of the interconnections that the data allows us to make. That implies campaigns that become more and more complex and much more complicated to just flight even. And so one of the things that I'm obsessed with is how we simplify that. There's so much change happening to accommodate all of this stuff. So really my big focus right now is on how we make working in this digital landscape easier for everybody involved in it because the amount of choices that we have and the richest is never ending. And so just making that more sustainable.Damian Fowler (09:32):I love that. That's a great answer. What's missing from the media and marketing marketplace that you'd like to see?Ryu Yokoi (09:39):From a Unilever standpoint, we have a few direct to consumer brands that are able to sort of track the media journey all the way through to conversion, but in the bulk of what we sell in traditional, fast moving goods are moving through retail. So what's missing is some way to penetrate that clean from a data standpoint so that those of us brands that aren't doing DTC can have that all the way through. We manage that well today with leading indicators and fast signals, but there's I think even more richness out there for us if we're able to correct that.Damian Fowler (10:15):To bring this kind of full circle outside of CPG, is there a brand that you think is doing a great job connecting with culture right now?Ryu Yokoi (10:22):Yeah, so I would name two. One that we really admire is Lego. I just see the way that they have both made their products, both a vehicle for other brands to build their worlds while also building incredible worlds for themselves. So they've become kind of this almost currency within the way that so many other brands are trying to build their IP in the world. So whether it's like a Formula One drop a Star Wars drop a Harry Potter drop, these things each have so much hype around them and they've learned while doing that so that they're able to propel their own ip, which is really impressive to me. So the other, I would say we had a fantastic opportunity to work with this year as crumble cookie. They were dove soaps, deodorant, lotions that were fragranced inspired by crumble flavors. And so in partnering then we were able to build off of that and make our soaps, our body washes, our deodorants, one of the drops of the winter. We struggled to keep it on shelf. So I'm a big admirer of the work that they've done too.Damian Fowler (11:27):That sounds cool. And then final, final question here. So in Unilever kind of portfolio of brands Dove Ben and, and the goal has always been to spark conversations, that's how we started this conversation. I guess I'm wondering if you could share a moment that reminded you of the importance of that brand led cultural impact that you can have.Ryu Yokoi (11:51):Oh wow. There's so many, but I'll give Dove so that we can show the other side of the coin because we've been talking about a campaign as I was saying, that shows a more playful side, the humorous side of the brand, but one of the areas the brand has focused over the past few years, and we just celebrated 20 years of the Dove Self-Esteem program, and Dove is one of the leading providers of self-esteem education in the world. I think actually we give the most annually self-esteem workshops. And one of the areas we focused recently is body confidence in sport. And so we partnered with Nike a few years ago to do research on the topic of young women in sport. And what we discovered along with them was that young women as they reach their teen years, are dropping out of sports at an alarming rate relative to guys.(12:41):And the chief reason is body confidence is feeling comfortable in your own skin wearing the kinds of outfits that you're wearing when you're playing sports. And so we set out to, together with Nike, actually develop a curriculum for coaches, which is the Body Confidence Sport curriculum that literally teaches coaches how to talk to young women about their bodies in ways that are positive and not discouraging. And so we've now been leveraging almost Trojan Horse, our participation across the big game. Our role as a sponsor of March Madness, we activated it last year with em, Navarro at the US Open really across major sports temples. We've just signed our first kit sponsorship of Gotham FC in the New York, New Jersey area of the Women's Professional Soccer League. And we're partnering with them also where they have a program called Keep Her in the Game. That's all around keeping young women in the New York, New Jersey area, staying, playing soccer. And so all of this focused again on trying to create a platform where we can talk about this and encourage people to go and learn about this curriculum. And the most encouraging thing. A really long-winded answer to your question,Damian Fowler (13:58):That's great.Ryu Yokoi (13:58):What struck me was we were looking back at the research and our spots in the big game have generated really good discourse the past couple of years. Really positive response from folks who've been inspired, not just by the ads themselves, but also I think this year we were one of maybe only a handful of brands that delivered a purpose message in the game. The really encouraging is the group with whom it resonated the most was Girl Dads, right?Damian Fowler (14:26):Yeah.Ryu Yokoi (14:26):The very guys who are probably coaching on the weekend who probably need to know more about how to speak to these young women and keep them comfortable and inspired playing. So it's stuff like that that makes me see all the time. As I was saying earlier, for us it's around how can we show up, how can we add value? How can we actually help the community? And when we do that, then we build trust and then we can have different kinds of dialogues with people and they really know who we are.Damian Fowler (14:54):And that's it for this edition of The Big Impression. This show is produced by Molten Heart. Our theme is by Loving Caliber, and our associate producer is Sydney Cairns. And remember,Ryu Yokoi (15:03):I think there's a real authenticity that the brand has earned. We say, oh, it's an authentic, it's only authentic if people believe it.Damian Fowler (15:12):I'm Damian, and we'll see you next time.

Justin Bieber BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Justin Bieber is firmly back in the global spotlight after dropping his surprise seventh studio album, Swag, on July 11, 2025. The album, his first in over four years, has drawn major headlines for its raw and deeply personal themes, with collaborations from big names like Gunna, Sexyy Red, Cash Cobain, and gospel vocalist Marvin Winans. Swag is being celebrated as Bieber's most vulnerable and stripped-down work yet, a product of his newfound creative independence after parting ways with longtime manager Scooter Braun in 2023. People Magazine reports that Braun himself described the album as “beautiful” and “raw” and insiders say Hailey Bieber supported Justin every step of the way during its creation.Bieber's lyrics and recent social media posts echo ongoing struggles with mental health and public pressure, opening up about feeling “unworthy” and at times “broken.” This honest approach is resonating with fans old and new. The album release was accompanied by a family-centric European vacation—Justin shared intimate photos of himself with Hailey and their son Jack, who is about to celebrate his first birthday, on Instagram, giving fans a rare look inside their family life. While Hailey was working on her Rhode skincare pop-up in Mallorca, the couple seemed closer than ever, addressing—if indirectly—the persistent but unfounded breakup rumors swirling on social media. E! News picked up on Justin's own post declaring his devotion to Hailey, shutting down speculation with a simple four-word caption, “If it's not Hailey.”Swag's surprise release reignited speculation about a possible Coachella 2025 appearance following a viral Reddit thread and Pop Base tweet, but so far, festival organizers have offered no official confirmation. Skepticism remains due to last year's festival controversies and fan concerns about Bieber's health and stability after his much-publicized battle with Ramsay Hunt syndrome, which caused partial facial paralysis and led to the cancellation of his previous world tour.Businesswise, Bieber remains a powerhouse. His estimated net worth in 2025 is $200 million, fueled not just by music but by brand deals, fashion collaborations, and the lucrative sale of his music catalog to Hipgnosis for another $200 million. He's also been visible in new clips for the lifestyle brand Skylrk, with Extra Chill noting “he is indeed standing on business.” Media outlets in the US and Latin America are buzzing about the possibility of a new tour—sites like Rebel Music and Los 40 suggest shows in Los Angeles, New York, Miami, and Las Vegas—but no dates or official announcements have been made, and it remains unclear if Bieber will return to the road. What's clear is that Justin Bieber's new era—defined by creative control, vulnerability, and family focus—is making waves across both music charts and celebrity headlines.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOta

Justin Bieber BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Barely a week has passed since Justin Bieber reentered the public eye with one of his most significant career moves in years, the surprise release of his seventh studio album, Swag, on July 11. The album, loaded with 21 tracks and featuring names like Gunna, Sexyy Red, Cash Cobain, and gospel great Marvin Winans, has sparked headlines for its vulnerability and raw introspection, with Bieber openly exploring fatherhood, mental health, and the immense pressures of fame. Notably, on the track Therapy Session, the singer lays bare his struggles, an emotional honesty that's carried over into his social media, where he's admitted to feeling both unworthy and broken at times. This era marks his first full-length project in more than four years and his first since gaining full creative control after his high-profile split from longtime manager Scooter Braun, a move Rolling Stone reported Bieber has no regrets about. People magazine detailed how wife Hailey Bieber not only supported Justin throughout the process but also gave him the confidence to trust his artistic instincts and create the album he'd always wanted.Bieber and Hailey have taken Europe by storm this week, sharing intimate snapshots with fans on Instagram, including adorable photos of their son, Jack, ahead of his first birthday next month. Their family getaway dovetailed with Hailey's own business milestone—a Rhode skincare pop-up in Mallorca. According to People, Justin was there to support her, returning the encouragement she's given him through his creative rebirth.The news cycle also saw Justin and Scooter Braun settle their tour dispute, with reports from IQ Magazine that Bieber agreed to pay his former manager over 30 million dollars relating to the canceled Justice World Tour. Speculation of a new tour following the release of Swag has bubbled up in outlets like Los40 and Extra Chill, thanks to prominent album billboards and the artist's hints, but nothing official has been announced. Fan rumor about a Coachella 2025 appearance, stoked by Twitter chatter and a viral Reddit thread, remains unsubstantiated as neither Goldenvoice nor Bieber's team have confirmed any booking. Meanwhile, Bieber's past health issues, especially his battle with Ramsay Hunt syndrome and ongoing mental health advocacy, continue to shape the narrative. Bieber has been photographed energetically celebrating the album's release, and there's no shortage of commentary on his social media, where he recently reaffirmed his strong relationship with Hailey despite recurring breakup gossip.Swag's arrival signals not just a comeback, but a return on Bieber's own terms—marked by newfound independence, artistic risk, and a tightly knit family unit that continues to captivate both the music world and the ever-watchful celebrity press.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOta

Justin Bieber BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.In a week dominated by surprise, Justin Bieber has electrified both music and pop culture headlines with his return. On July 11, the singer dropped his long-awaited seventh studio album, Swag, under Def Jam—a move that nobody saw coming until billboards popped up in Reykjavik and Los Angeles and Bieber ignited his social media with cryptic teasers. The album immediately set the internet ablaze: fans on TikTok and X (formerly Twitter) revived “Bieber Fever” and group chats exploded, celebrating what many are calling his most personal and vulnerable project yet, according to the LA Times.Swag is Bieber's first full-length studio release in over four years, and marks a significant moment in his evolution as both an artist and a person. The 21-track album dives deep into topics like fatherhood with an emotional acknowledgment of his son Jack Blues Bieber, mental health struggles, and renewed commitment to his marriage with Hailey Bieber—all wrapped in a blend of R and B, pop, and gospel influences. The closing track, Forgiveness, even features gospel star Marvin Winans, underlining the album's spiritual undertones. People magazine reports Hailey was by Justin's side throughout the creative process, with sources noting this project was made entirely on his own terms after officially severing ties with his longtime manager, Scooter Braun. Braun, for his part, publicly praised Swag as “raw” and “beautiful.”Bieber's public appearances remain under the spotlight. In April, he made headlines for a brief but memorable cameo at Coachella 2025, dancing alongside Tems and Wizkid. However, fans and festival insiders remain cautious about his future live appearances. Extra Chill's festival wire details how his erratic on-site behavior and visible cannabis use raised concerns about his readiness for a main-stage comeback—igniting but not confirming rumors that he might headline Coachella 2025. At the moment, Goldenvoice has announced no formal booking.Bieber's business activities have quietly expanded alongside his artistic ventures. Vinyl Me Please and other industry insiders note he has launched a fashion brand, SKYLRK, and continues to profit from Drew House and his water startup, Generosity. Financially, he is thriving, with his net worth estimated between $200 and $300 million, bolstered by a $200 million sale of his music catalog to Hipgnosis in 2023 and impressive real estate investments, as reported by Fourth Wall Production and Celebrity Net Worth.On social media, Bieber has directly addressed rumors about his mental health, calling much of the speculation “gossip and lies,” but he's also embraced the chance to showcase honesty in both his music and public persona. As for tour plans, recent headlines suggest fans are eager but nothing official has been announced, especially as he continues to recover from previous health setbacks related to Ramsay Hunt Syndrome, as LOS40 reports. For now, Bieber's Swag is not just an album but a reset of his narrative—one marked by growth, independence, and the undimmed curiosity of the public.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOta

Justin Bieber BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Justin Bieber is firmly back in the spotlight after releasing his surprise seventh studio album Swag on July 11, 2025, under Def Jam. The album marks his first full-length release in over four years and features 21 tracks with a star-studded lineup, including Gunna, Sexyy Red, Cash Cobain, Druski, and Marvin Winans on the gospel-tinged closer Forgiveness, signaling a more mature and vulnerable direction. Swag's sudden arrival was teased by global billboards and a dramatic reveal of the tracklist in New York's Times Square, which sent fans and the music press into overdrive. The reception: the album debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 and its emotionally raw lyrics—touching on fatherhood, mental health challenges, and family life—have been widely praised as a new peak in Bieber's artistic evolution according to Coast1045 and confirmed by People.In tandem with the album drop, Bieber made headlines for his very public affection toward wife Hailey Bieber, reposting her bikini photos from Mallorca on his Instagram Stories with an over-the-top reaction and sparking a fresh wave of positive gossip about their marriage. The couple, who married in 2018 and welcomed their first child Jack in August 2024, spent the album release weekend celebrating together. According to People, Hailey played a major role in supporting Justin's creative freedom on Swag, especially since he parted ways with longtime manager Scooter Braun in 2023—a move that Rolling Stone reports allowed Bieber to finally work on his own terms.Speculation swirled on social media about a possible return to touring, with fans noticing hints in Bieber's posts and some outlets suggesting a potential world tour announcement. However, Los40 and Extra Chill clarify that nothing official has been announced, and sources close to Bieber suggest ongoing caution due to his past struggles with Ramsay Hunt syndrome and mental health issues that led to the cancellation of his previous Justice World Tour. Skepticism remains regarding any major festival appearances for 2025, with Coachella insiders pointing to organizers' preference for stability over headline drama.On the business front, Bieber's estimated net worth stands at $300 million as detailed by Fourth Wall Production, fueled not just by music but by his successful Drew House brand, the Generosity water startup, and strategic real estate investments from Beverly Hills to Europe. He's also expanded into the fashion world with his new line SKYLRK according to VinylMePlease, reinforcing his cultural reach well beyond music. Social media buzz remains intense. Bieber's Instagram brims with album promotion, candid snaps with Hailey, and playful nods to his personal life. He's also directly addressed rumors about his mental health, calling out “gossip” and affirming his commitment to his family and craft. In summary, Justin Bieber's week has been a masterclass in celebrity comeback, blending musical vulnerability, relationship affirmation, and business acumen, with every move scrutinized and celebrated by fans and media alike.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOta

An Irish language rap group has, improbably enough, become the focus of global media attention and political debate. Why? For describing Israel's actions in Gaza as a genocide and accusing the United States of complicity before an approving crowd at the music festival Coachella. In this episode, Naomi and Tim explain the origins of Kneecap in the movement for Irish language rights, the controversies about the band as its fame grew to ever greater heights, and why it now appears to be becoming a test case for the freedom of cultural figures to speak out about Palestine. A new bonus episode in which Naomi and Tim take questions from listeners about the Irish language and generational trauma is available on patreon.com/theirishpassport.
