Whether you're a marketer trying to reach this elusive generation or a millennial just trying your best, this one's for you.

Ep 6: Did Gen X Pledge Allegiance to Functionality and Value?

jeudi 12 juin 2025 • Durée 26:31

Gen X gets left out of the generational discourse far too often—but what if they’ve been the ones quietly holding everything together this whole time?

In this episode, Aves dives into the lived experiences, cultural impact, and consumer behavior of Gen X. From latchkey kids and Riot Grrrls to menopause startups and R&D brilliance, we’re unpacking what makes this generation tick—and why brands need to stop ignoring them.

If you think Gen X is too chill to market to, you’re probably just doing it wrong.

Ep 10: Are You a Little Lad Who Loves Berries and Cream? Because I Am

jeudi 10 juillet 2025 • Durée 31:34

What do Michelangelo, Charlie XCX, and a candy-loving Victorian man-child have in common? A bold artistic vision—and a lesson in trusting it.

In this episode of Ad-Venturous, Aves dives deep into one of the weirdest and most iconic ads of all time: the Starburst “Berries and Cream” commercial.

You’ll learn:

🎨 Why the best ads are built on big creative risks

📉 Why failure is part of the process (and why that’s good)

👩‍🎨 How brands can be containers for real artistry

⚠️ What AI can’t replicate—and why that matters now more than ever

We go from the Sistine Chapel to Starburst, from performance artists to KPIs. And it all makes sense in the end. Mostly.

In this episode, Avery breaks down the message box: a dead-simple, wildly effective strategy tool used by political pros (and now, smart marketers) to craft campaigns that stick.

You’ll learn:

What the four quadrants of a message box are—and how to fill them in

Why “us vs. them” thinking still works (when used strategically)

jeudi 26 juin 2025 • Durée 43:17

In this episode of Ad-venturous, we dive into the messy, malleable identity of Gen Z through the lens of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s The Great Gatsby.

Spoiler alert: we’re all a little more Nick than Gatsby.
