WEBVTT - Math & Magic Returns Thursday, February 29th

0:00:02.080 --> 0:00:02.559
<v Speaker 1>Hi there.

0:00:02.680 --> 0:00:06.600
<v Speaker 2>I'm Bob Pittman, Chairman and CEO of iHeartMedia. I'm excited

0:00:06.600 --> 0:00:10.200
<v Speaker 2>to announce a new season of my podcast Math and Magic,

0:00:10.400 --> 0:00:14.120
<v Speaker 2>Stories from the Frontiers and Marketing, coming February twenty ninth.

0:00:14.440 --> 0:00:17.479
<v Speaker 2>As we enter twenty twenty four, we find ourselves in

0:00:17.520 --> 0:00:20.880
<v Speaker 2>an uncharted era of technological advances, and we're going to

0:00:20.920 --> 0:00:23.200
<v Speaker 2>have to work harder than ever to embrace the changes

0:00:23.239 --> 0:00:27.400
<v Speaker 2>without hesitation. Our guest this season ground us in actionable

0:00:27.480 --> 0:00:33.879
<v Speaker 2>advice to navigate through these unprecedented times. Like Andrew Dureki,

0:00:33.960 --> 0:00:38.120
<v Speaker 2>Award winning filmmaker and creator of moviefone.

0:00:37.760 --> 0:00:40.800
<v Speaker 3>The studios didn't really control the theaters. The theaters didn't

0:00:40.800 --> 0:00:43.519
<v Speaker 3>control the studios, and I thought, well, there's a window

0:00:43.600 --> 0:00:46.159
<v Speaker 3>in here where I could make things easier for the

0:00:46.200 --> 0:00:50.239
<v Speaker 3>consumer and also make something that would be very useful

0:00:50.600 --> 0:00:51.480
<v Speaker 3>for the industry.

0:00:51.960 --> 0:00:55.520
<v Speaker 2>Kellen Kenny, chief Marketing and Growth Officer at AT and T,

0:00:55.960 --> 0:00:59.760
<v Speaker 2>who installed fibering customers' houses rather than leading from afar.

0:01:00.400 --> 0:01:04.120
<v Speaker 1>It is so crucial that you spend time with the customers,

0:01:04.360 --> 0:01:07.759
<v Speaker 1>that you spend time with frontline employees. That is the

0:01:07.800 --> 0:01:08.960
<v Speaker 1>best lesson.

0:01:09.680 --> 0:01:14.280
<v Speaker 2>Bob Riley, Global Chief Creative officer of WPP, who encourages

0:01:14.319 --> 0:01:17.640
<v Speaker 2>his team to write down every idea they have, especially

0:01:17.720 --> 0:01:21.360
<v Speaker 2>the wildest ones. I try to create environments where anybody

0:01:21.400 --> 0:01:24.720
<v Speaker 2>can say anything without any judgment. As always on the show,

0:01:24.720 --> 0:01:28.119
<v Speaker 2>we're here to mine our guest exceptional real world experiences

0:01:28.280 --> 0:01:31.560
<v Speaker 2>for pearls of wisdom. We're looking for that special and

0:01:31.720 --> 0:01:35.840
<v Speaker 2>rare combination of the math, the strategy and analytics, and

0:01:35.880 --> 0:01:40.319
<v Speaker 2>the magic, that elusive and creative spart that together can

0:01:40.360 --> 0:01:45.720
<v Speaker 2>pull any idea campaign or business venture into reality. Listen

0:01:45.760 --> 0:01:47.919
<v Speaker 2>to a brand new season of Math and Magic starting

0:01:47.960 --> 0:01:52.600
<v Speaker 2>February twenty ninth on our very own iHeartRadio, app, Apple podcast,

0:01:52.720 --> 0:02:04.360
