Podcast Description
Does the world need another advertising podcast? Yep. AdVerve is Bill Green from Make The Logo Bigger along with Angela Natividad from AdRants (and Live & Uncensored). It’ll cover advertising topics that might make you laugh—or cringe. Each week will be different because we’re trying things out to keep the format loose and the conversation unscripted. It’s not a daily ad recap or haven for press releases. Sometimes we’ll have guests, sometimes not. Check it out.

Customer Reviews
The Avante Garde of Advertising
I obviously feel kindship with this show, since the hosts have been long-time guests of my own show. But that aside, they have really come up with a format that is interesting, engaging and unique. It's the living, breathing expression of what Make the Logo Bigger (Bill's blog) has always been about — looking at life through the lens of advertising. And that makes it something special among the ad podcasts. If you are a student of culture and the art of advertising, this is a must listen for you.
Not your typical dry marketing podcast
This isn't your mom's marketing podcast, its the good stuff. If you enjoy hearing about the latest marketing and ad trends with a little spunk this one is definitely for you. Check it out!
Not sure if it is over coffee, but it sure seems to be full of caffeinated energy
Angela and Bill provide some great commentary on the week's marketing with their occasional rants and unique opinions about what is going on in the industry. Even if I don't agree all the time, their perspectives make me think about my own thoughts on some creative or brand strategy. Keep up the great work.
