Jenny Wall ran marketing for HBO, Hulu, and Netflix, some of the most iconic media companies of our time. She’s a marketer, mom, and activist. She grew up in a conservative home in the mid-west, lost a parent at an early age, and came out as a lesbian at a time when coming out was shameful and isolating.
When I think of Jenny one word comes to mind. Strong.
In 2019 she helped Gimlet Media, a podcast network, sell to Spotify for $190 million.
In this episode, we talk about what it’s like to raise a son with two mom’s, grow a podcast business and the lessons she learned marketing HBO, Hulu, and Netflix.
We recorded this episode in the Gimlet Media studios in Brooklyn. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
Enjoy!
