THE FUEL PODCAST – DAVE DYE: SAME OLD SH*T

From BMP/DDB, AMV/BBDO and Mother to Campbell Doyle Dye, DHM and LOVE or FEAR, Dave Dye has been behind some of the world’s most amazing advertising campaigns in his 40-year career. A creative leader, Dave also runs one of the advertising industry’s most loved podcasts ‘Stuff from the Loft’ where it’s not unheard of to hear 2-3 hour long interviews with advertising royalty.

In this show, Dave discusses the art of leadership, using Tim Delaney and Alan Parker as examples. He urges the ad industry to get back to solving business problems, and why it’s important to explain the creative process to clients.

Dave’s favourite piece of work, the emotion of creativity, impostor syndrome, how D&ADs have changed, the fossil fuel addiction rabbit hole, keeping podcasting natural, Dave’s white whale, Dave Trott’s theory of jingles and new technology that works!

And Arsenal…Dave’s beloved Arsenal.

THE FUEL PODCAST – PETER SOUTER: A WAY WITH WORDS

Words have impact. Words have meaning. In your advertising, in your PR copy, in your emails, in your social media.

And here to explain his fascination with words is one of the advertising industry’s most famous creative directors, copywriter and agency leader and mentor, Peter Souter.

We caught up him in his last 2 months as TBWA London’s Chairman and CCO – before he retires to enjoy his days using the written word to create entertainment – and this show is full of words of wisdom accumulated over his stellar career.

Starting his career at Delaney Fletcher Delaney in the mid-80s, Souter joined AMV BBDO in 1991, quickly climbing the ranks to replace David Abbott – a creative mind Souter says he grew up “devoted” to – and becoming executive creative director in 1997. After 17 years he took four years out to follow his passion for screenwriting, returning to adland in 2012.

He’s also about to embark on an exciting new venture with comedy screenwriter Richard Curtis. We hear all about that and Peter passes on his learnings from a prolific 40-year career in advertising.
