    The Beatlology Interviews: Producer Mark Hudson

Mark is a huge Beatles fan and collector - and has spent time with all four Beatles. He’s a great storyteller.

    Weight Loss Drug Ads: Good or Bad?

    Companies are spending big bucks advertising weight-loss drugs like Ozempic and Rybelsus. 

    This week, we’re dropping an episode of Brian Goldman’s White Coat, Black Art podcast into our feed.

    We thought you might find the topic interesting. In Canada, "reminder ads" can only give the medication's name, but they can’t tell you what the drug is for. They just tell people to ask their doctor for more information. 

    I join Dr. Goldman in this episode to talk about those ads.

    Are those ads good – or are they bad?

    The Beatlology Interviews: Yellow Submarine Animator Tom Halley
    Tom Halley was one of the brilliant animators on Yellow Submarine. The film is considered one of the most inventive animated films of all time. In this interview with the late animator, he tells us how he came to be involved, how they all managed to create this classic film in just 11 months. And much to our surprise, Tom tells us he was also an animator on the Beatles cartoon series.

    Marketing The Olympics

    With the Paris Olympics in motion, it is a good time to revisit this episode from our archives.

    From the first ad at the first Olympics in 1896, to the hundreds of millions spent on today's advertising contracts, sponsorship money has always been a contentious issue. The Olympics cost a fortune to stage, and sponsorship money makes it possible. But there's a price to pay when there's a price to pay. How marketing has evolved at the Olympics is a fascinating story.

    The Beatlology Interviews: David Sheff
    David Sheff conducted the last major interview with John Lennon. Just as Double Fantasy was being released, Sheff interviewed John & Yoko for Playboy magazine. It was the famous interview where Lennon went through the Beatles catalogue song-by-song - just before he died. The backstory of that interview is fascinating.

    A Tribute to Bob Newhart
    I did a lot of commercials with Bob Newhart in the late 90s. He was one-in-a-million, a joy to work with, and he will be missed. And I want to tell you a very funny story that happened as a result of those commercials.

    The Beatlology Interviews: Astrid Kirchherr
    Astrid Kirchherr holds a special place in the history of the Beatles. She took the famous Hamburg-era photos of the Beatles in their formative years, she inspired their “moptop” hairstyle, and she happened to fall in love with Stuart Sutcliffe, the fifth member of the Beatles. Her story is compelling, and her love of the Beatles, as friends, comes through in every word.
