- A totally different show
I’ve listened to a bunch of different shows in the social impact space, but I keep coming back to this one. The first season was completely unique, where Eric gives away his entire playbook he uses with his clients for free — in detail!
Season 2 and onward Eric is joined by a cohost (Jonathan) who is an Executive Director at a nonprofit. The dynamic between the two and their different perspectives are great and they cover topics and ideas that no one else is really talking about in the space.

United Statesa year ago - Insightful, clear & inspiring
So glad I came across this podcast! I’m starting a new role as a Content Strategist for a social impact company and am finding these succinct, value-packed episodes so helpful. And the kind, straightforward approach of the host is really refreshing as a lot of what I tend to come across in the marketing space is edgy, hype-y or so full of jargon I can’t understand it. So thanks very much - your content is a real gift!

As a recent founder of a nonprofit in mental health with zero experience in corporate, marketing or digital design, it only took a couple of episodes to realise I need to completely rethink the way I’m doing this. Thank you for the perspective shift and critical information, while I’m still early on in the process!!
