2-4-6-8 — who do we appreciate? Mascots!
In this episode, we're diving headfirst into the world of brand mascots. From the psychology behind why they work, to which ones are boosting brands… and which ones might actually be holding them back (hot take: is Flo from Progressive past her prime?).
Who’s your favorite mascot of all time? Did they make our list?
We’re also playing a game called Mascot Confessionals, where we imagine what mascots would say if they could finally speak their truth.
And for the first time ever… Deanna didn’t do her homework (but don’t worry — Ashley's got it covered).
