SHOCKING: Was the Massive Counter-Protest Crowd Last Night Full of REAL Activists... or PAID ACTORS?
That was a huge crowd, no doubt! They are passionate, loud, and full of energy, but are they paid actors?
What really goes into creating buzz, influence, and public momentum?
In this episode, Do You Ever Wonder goes inside the world of organized influence and explores how crowd dynamics shape perception and power.
From corporate launches to advocacy movements, the art of influence management has become one of the most powerful tools in business and media.
On this episode of the Do You Ever Wonder podcast, host Mike Haltman sits down with Adam Swart, CEO of Crowds on Demand, to discuss:
• How organizations use events and crowds to amplify messages
• The role of public relations, perception, and storytelling in modern activism
• Ethical considerations of paid participation and advocacy
• The evolving relationship between authentic engagement and strategic influence
This isn’t about sides, Democrat vs. Republican — it’s about understanding how influence works in a connected world where attention is currency.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
