  BONUS: The New Mainstream Podcast with Mario Carrasco

  Sep 16, 202645 min

  In preparation for Season 2, we're sharing conversations where host Neil Callanan takes the guest chair. This bonus episode comes from The New Mainstream Podcast with Mario Carrasco, Co-Founder of ThinkNow. Brands are under real pressure to say where they stand on social, political, and environmental issues, and the ground keeps moving underneath them. Consumer behavior has shifted, and so has what people expect from the companies they buy from. Neil and Mario get into what that means for purpose-driven brands trying to stay credible in a polarized moment, and how advocacy work holds up when the cultural context won't sit still.

  BONUS: Can Marketing Save the Planet with Michelle Carvill & Gemma Butler

  Sep 9, 20261h 1m

  In preparation for Season 2, we're sharing conversations where host Neil Callanan takes the guest chair. This one's from Can Marketing Save the Planet? Where Neil makes the case that values-led brands hold their impact work to a lower standard than their sales numbers—and that purpose and performance feed each other rather than compete. He walks through the GRASP Framework, which sorts content goals into discover, engage, and convert before anyone opens a dashboard (and away from misleading glamour metrics.)

  BONUS: The Business Case for Good with Lauren Scott (The Resilience Report)

  Aug 26, 202657 min

  As we prep Season 2, we're sharing conversations where host Neil Callanan took the guest chair. This episode comes from The Resilience Report, where Neil joins host Lauren Scott to dig into the gap between caring about impact and being able to prove it. He walks through what actually happens to most ESG reports: thousands of hours in, a collective exhale when it ships, and almost no one checking whether it worked—and makes the case for treating impact content as always-on storytelling rather than an annual sprint. Neil breaks down the two mistakes he sees most (too many data points, too many dashboards), why he pushes clients to demote views and page views in favor of consumption metrics, and how the HiPPO problem quietly pulls teams back toward big meaningless numbers. He also shares the "halo effect" study with a longtime client—tracking what a high-engagement values post does to the traditional post that follows it.

  Behind Measured Impact with Ronald Young Jr. and Neil Callanan

  Jul 30, 202650 minS1

  For our season 1 finale, the tables turn as host Neil Callanan steps into the guest seat to be interviewed by critically acclaimed host, Senior Producer, and CEO at ohitsBigRon Studios LLC, Ronald Young Jr. Neil shares the story behind LooseGrip, his 17+ year digital agency that evolved from general marketing services to a specialized focus on data storytelling for purpose-driven brands. He opens up about his personal journey, detailing how experiencing the profound personal tragedy of losing his four-year-old son, Shea, transformed not only his family and his world, but also how he leads his business, interacts with clients, and embraces authentic human connection. Neil and Ronald dive deep into everything from activism and data to how bold, progressive messaging and commercial performance aren’t mutually exclusive. The conversation concludes with a candid reflection on intentionality, grief, building strong teams, and the essential freedom to "f**k around" in pursuit of doing great work.

  Ep11. Breaking the Cocoa Mold with Belinda Borck

  Jul 9, 202638 minS1

  In this episode, host Neil Callanan is joined by Belinda Borck, the Global External Affairs and Reporting Lead at Tony's Chocolonely and Tony's Open Chain. Belinda shares the brand's 2005 origin story, when a Dutch journalist sued himself to expose child labor and tracking failures in the chocolate industry. Moving from a "lonely fight" to an industry-wide collaborative engine, she explains how they open-source their ethical framework, helping over 22 corporate allies eliminate exploitation across the cocoa sector. Neil and Belinda dive into the mechanics of turning dry supply chain KPIs into relatable human stories. Belinda also breaks down their five core sourcing principles, opening up about the real value of traceability, sticking to five-year commitments, and embracing radical transparency even when it brings tough headlines. It’s a candid look at how a profit-driven business can scale industry-wide change, shake up old market practices, and actually move the needle on global sustainability legislation.
