Trailer—The Lead Balloon Podcast—PR, Marketing and Strategic Communications Stories
Description
Adweek's 2020 "Marketing Podcast of the Year."
Webby Award-nominated.
Profiled on Forbes.com.
On Lead Balloon, professional communicators share tales of the do-or-die situations that defined public relations and marketing careers--what went wrong, how unexpected obstacles were overcome, and what was learned in the process.
With immersive storytelling and a wry sense of humor, host Dusty Weis revisits epic PR disasters, intense communications scenarios, professional crises and half-baked marketing campaigns gone awry, and usually finds a reason to chuckle.
Because sometimes, there are important lessons to be learned from someone else's worst day. And sometimes, it's just more convenient than group therapy.
