NO PROMO
Podcast Description
Spoiler: Just about everything ever has a dedicated strategy behind it. Ever wondered why lesbians drive Subarus? Or why vibrators were once used to treat "hysteria"? Welcome to No Promo—the show that unpacks the shocking, delightful, and horrifying marketing forces behind why a lot of things in pop culture are “just the way it is” today. From rainbow-washing Pride, to queering wedding traditions, we explore how branding, capitalism, and social norms have shaped the world we live in—especially for LGBTQ+ communities, through a queer lens. Hosted by Lisa Kribs & the team at TGW Studio (a.k.a. The World’s Gayest Marketing Agency), this podcast is where history, marketing, and culture collide.

In this episode, Lisa, CB, and Whitney talk about being OUT at work, how TGW Studio came to be the World's Gayest Marketing Agency, and the fact that only 1% of marketing agencies are women-owned (and why we need to change that – yesterday!!!).
