If you're a regulare listener to the DAILY BRIEF, you will know my daughter, Erin, and I produce abroad range of branded podcasts for companies, not-for-profits, thought leaders and educators. Check out the offering at storystudionetwork.com. In this episode of the Daily Brief, we step away from the "news of the day" to let you know how you can become your own newsroom. That could include creating, producing and distributing your own brand story in your own voice. We'll get back to the headlines tomorrow. We'll talk about the struggling brands of political parties in Canada and the United States. Is it realistic to have a "big tent" party in 2022? And we'll highlight the best comments on the Will Smith v. Chris Rock incident.
