  • Is Artificial Intelligence (AI) Making Us All Lazy? EP40
    Jul 9 2024

    Is AI making us all lazy?

    This episode of the Marketing Combat Podcast revolves around the question of whether AI is making us lazy. Chris argues that AI is fostering laziness because people increasingly rely on AI to do their work without truly understanding or processing the information. He cites an example of his son's school project where some group members used AI to complete their parts with minimal effort, highlighting a growing trend of dependency on technology.

    On the other hand, Jason explains that AI isn't making us lazy but rather providing valuable tools that enable faster learning and creation. He stresses that the impact of AI depends on its usage; while some may misuse it as a shortcut, others leverage AI to enhance their learning and productivity. Jason believes that AI, when used effectively, can be a powerful aid in personal and professional development.

  • Is the New Joe & the Juice Smoothie Ad Any Good? EP38
    Jul 5 2024

    Is the new Joe & the Juice smoothie ad any good or just directed to Gen Z?

    In this episode of the Marketing Combat Podcast, Jason and Chris drop into the new advertising campaign from Joe and the Juice, advertising spilled smoothies. Chris criticizes the campaign, arguing that it fails to create desire or trigger the all-important dopamine hit that makes ads memorable and effective. He believes that without these elements, the campaign misses the mark in capturing the audience's interest and driving consumer action.

    Jason, however, takes a different stance. He contends that the campaign's strength lies in its ability to disrupt viewer expectations and convey authenticity. This unexpected approach, he argues, enhances brand perception by standing out from typical advertising norms.

    Throughout their discussion, they debate the campaign's overall impact on Joe and the Juice's brand image and whether its primary goal is promotional or focused on long-term branding. The episode highlights the contrasting strategies in advertising and their potential effects on consumer engagement.
