Factory Settings – Details, episodes & analysis

Not every brand is a scam—but some are built on marketing magic. Factory Settings breaks down your favorite brands, how things are made, what goes wrong behind the scenes, and how to tell what’s worth buying… and what just looks good on social. Influencer-backed brands that rise overnight could turn out to be mass-produced catalog items with a fresh logo slapped on. Others call themselves “sustainable” while churning out goods made of questionable materials. The hosts hold brands accountable- including their own. This isn’t another "feel-good" founder podcast.
