NOW and NEXT LIVE from the PAAC Conference in Toronto

It's a NOW and NEXT first!

Our Comms and Strategy Team (C.A.S.T.) presented this edition of the podcast LIVE at the Public Affairs Association of Canada conference in Toronto. It was held in November at the waterfront campus of George Brown College.

We riffed on the emergence of podcasting a powerful weapon in the comms and stategy arsenal for brands and organizations in a day and age when "earned media" is increasingly more difficult to land.

We also talked about the political power of podcasting - particularly against the backdrop of the US Presidential election that gives Donald Trump another four years behind the Resolute Desk in the Oval Office.
