ABOUT THIS PODCAST 🔗
ADDICTED is a cold shower of a podcast - sharing pivotal career moments and taking a glimpse into the lives of world class advertising directors. Containing bitable sizes of advice, anecdotes and tactics. Like commercials, we keep it short and to the point. That’s why each episode skips the dialogue and goes straight to the essence - answers only. Beyond that, it's a personal tribute to the golden age of advertising in a rapidly evolving media landscape. Visit: https://www.ad-dicted.com/
