Inside Situation

In the first episode of our Job Spotlight series, Peter, Michael and John sit down to discuss the Senior Designer position at Situation. You'll learn what we look for when hiring this role and how to stand out from the crowd if you apply.

Pull up a log and join us around the fire as we contemplate the future while staring into the last glowing ember of Inside Situation. Jordan, Kevin and Peter make s’mores while talking about endings and new beginnings, and we revive an old favorite; Things Not To Miss!

In an homage to The Daily, the amazing podcast from The New York Times, Peter does a series of one-on-one interviews with members of team Situation as we ramp up for the 2017 Tony Award Broadcast.

Lisa, Steph and Peter discuss the ethical implications of allowing algorithms to decide what prices we see online. We explore the gray areas of offering up choices based on consumer information and how that changes in marketing versus at the point of sale.

Sarah, Mollie, and Peter chat about fandom and how it plays a role in marketing live events. We also explore some of our own obsessions and ruminate on the rise of the fan influencer on social media.

Kev-heads rejoice! Kevin McAuley takes the reins this week and asks Mara, Mark, Nicole, Randi, Rian, Sarah and Steph how they deal with stress and the unknown during a particularly busy time of year for the agency. Share your coping strategies with us at [email protected]!

We revive a popular segment form the early days of the podcast, Things You Can’t Miss, but with self referential twist. Listen to Peter, Nick, Caolan, Dana, Rian, Katryn, Tori, Mark and Sarah talk about their favorite podcasts (that aren’t Inside Situation). Who knows? Maybe you’ll find your new audio obsession.

Kevin McAuley hits the ground again this year to bring back insights from TEDxBroadway 2017. We hear some of the speakers and facilitators who were part of the event (mere minutes after they were on stage) talk about the importance of dialogue in the arts and how to stay inspired in the face of adversity and artistic burn-out.

Jordan, Damian and Peter, fresh off the plane from South By Southwest 2017, sit down to recap some of the broader themes they heard at this year's interactive conference.  We discuss the growth of artificial intelligence, the continued focus on team diversification and the real challenges of sustainability in the workplace and how these topics will influence our industry in the months and years to come.

Is it lunch time yet? Peter chats with eight hungry members of our team about how they make smart choices around food at work. You’ll hear from Sarah, Caolan, Emily, Mark, Elizabeth, Adam, Jason and David about their food hacking strategies and their dietary kryptonite.
