Audio Branding

Keeping a consistent sound in how you present your company really is the “hidden gem” of marketing. But audio or sonic branding influences us in many different ways and in many different places within our lives. I’ll be exploring that in this podcast, both with my own observations and by interviewing knowledgeable professionals in the field of advertising, marketing, music and science.

Grown, A Podcast From the Moth

Grown is a podcast about the in-between: the nebulous, the liminal, the just plain weird time between those awkward teenage years and full-on adulthood. Grown is co-hosted by Aleeza Kazmi and Alfonso “Fonzo” Lacayo, two Moth storytellers and graduates of The Moth’s Education program who are on the cusp of adulthood themselves.

Together, they guide listeners through true stories that deal with the challenges and joys of growing up. Using their unique points of view, Aleeza and Fonzo discuss first crushes, culture, identity, secrets, and more. Grown is a podcast that reminds us that no matter how old we are, we’re never fully grown.
