King Radio was forged from silence. Prince Podcasting and all the other Regents that follow came into power because of what the original ruler established. To fully understand the future of the sound industry, we must reexamine the history of the landscape and the King’s 6 courtly laws he first established. Because through Radio’s first design, we can discover the future of this vast kingdom.
Ad Infinitum hired me to produce an episode on the history of radio and the future of the industry, and this is its ENCORE episode. Thank you to Oxford Road, Ad Infinitium, and Stew Redwine for letting me run this ENCORE and for hiring me to produce it in the first place.
The original episode can be found here.

Radio IDs, something few of us (me included) think of but have all experienced and cherished. They are those fun zingers, prompting a new radio show or DJ. They change for the holidays and for topical reference. They are the sounds of our past, present, and future, and the focus of this episode.
Twenty Thousand Hertz hired me to produce an episode on Radio IDs and now I’m sharing its ENCORE. Thank you to Twenty Thousand Hertz, Dallas Taylor, and Casey Emmerling for letting me run this ENCORE and for hiring me to produce it in the first place.

What if the signature sound for a sleek Scandinavian EV was inspired by a cat’s purr? Vinn hit the gas on that idea, while General Motors shifted into a full sound and driving ecosystem of experience. Which sound story will drive more vehicles off the lot?
Here are some links to episodes referenced or expanded upon within the episode.
- The State of Sonic Branding- We explore sonic branding's evolution, impact, and future. I interviewed everyone from audio logo inventors to current audio alchemists helping shape sonic strategies around the world:
- The Sound of General Motors- Part One and Two of my 1st interview with Jay. We go deep into the process of making sound for cars, both gasoline and electric vehicles.
Want more Sound In Marketing? I gotcha. Here are a few more episodes to get you started.
- Are Jingles Better Than Sonic Logos?- What’s the difference between a jingle and a sonic logo? Aren’t they the same thing?
- What Is Sensory Perception- part one and two- the importance of engagement and perspective.
- Chevy Silverado’s Walter The Cat- part one and two. Thoughtful music selection with a well-thought-out script made for a campaign that got this non-truck gal interested in trucks.
Thank you to Jay Kapadia and the team at General Motors for your wisdom and insights. Thank you also to Artlist.io for your supporting sounds and music. You never disappoint.
Let’s make this world of sound more intriguing, more unique, and more on brand.

POS sounds; what are we trying to say about our brand experience as our customers are literally checking out?
If the last thing a customer hears is an annoying beep, what does that say about the brand experience? In this episode, I challenge brands to explore the overlooked world of POS sounds. An on-brand transaction tone doesn’t just signal the end of a sale- it shapes future customer loyalty and long-term spending.
Referenced in the episode are:

- The World’s Loudest Chips Bag- SunChips made a completely compostable chip bag, which was great. But it was loud...too loud.
https://pod.link/1467112373/episode/3520335b9f34509c17173b38153555db
- Sound in the Shopping Experience- Interac, a Canadian debit card company, used sound to help their customers shop more mindfully.

Another big thanks to Sentient Decision Science for providing preliminary research on the subject of POS Sounds. I hope to see more and more studies to come.
Thank you also to Artlist.io and Pixabay for being such a great musical and sound effects resource. I also referenced an episode of the Inside Trader Joe’s podcast. A fun branded podcast to check out if you’re feeling Trader Joey.
