    437: The PR Strategy Keeping Las Vegas on Top with Molly Castano
    May 19 2026
    Adam Stoker sits down with Molly Castano, VP of Public Relations and Communications at the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority, for a candid conversation about what it takes to keep 150,000 hotel rooms full and the world's most-watched tourism brand on top. Molly shares how her team navigated a brutal summer news cycle, the unexpected strategy that flipped traditional media training on its head, and why Vegas treats every announcement — from the Michelin Guide to the Super Bowl — as a chance to outdo itself. The conversation also explores the rise of earned media in the AI era, why trust is moving from institutions to individuals, and the one piece of advice every PR pro should hear: be "clearer, not louder."

    436: Why Your Podcast Is No Longer Just a Podcast with Matt Henson
    May 12 2026
    The rules of owned content just flipped — short-form clips aren't driving traffic to your show anymore, they ARE the show. In this episode, Adam Stoker is joined by Brand Revolt's video and content lead Matt Henson to unpack why every podcast is really a "show" now, and how to structure episodes around five distinct interests instead of one long conversation. Matt also pulls back the curtain on Visit Myrtle Beach's new stakeholder series, Myrtle Moments: Faces and Places — including the "environmental audio" approach and why one episode now fuels weeks of social. Plus: AI in video production, the future of point-and-shoot, and Matt's move from Wrangell, Alaska to Utah. Subscribe to our ⁠⁠⁠⁠newsletter⁠⁠⁠⁠!

  • 435: AI Strategy and Meal Madness with Aaron Jumper

    435: AI Strategy and Meal Madness with Aaron Jumper
    May 5 2026
    In episode 435, host Adam Stoker explores the critical intersection of AI strategy and creative community activation with Aaron Jumper from Visit Cumberland Valley. The conversation begins with a deep dive into the 2026 AI landscape, specifically why providing deep "contextual intelligence" to tools like Claude is the defining factor in shifting from a marketing tactician to a true strategist. Aaron then reveals the blueprint behind "Meal Madness," a viral, bracket-style restaurant tournament that has transformed the local dining scene and provided a repeatable model for aggregating destination assets to capture maximum attention. Together, they discuss how these modern tools and tournament-style tactics allow DMOs to drive tangible results for local stakeholders, proving that in the attention economy, your only limit is your creativity.
