PR/etty Average episodes

  • From newsrooms to newsfeeds, with Genevieve Brammall
    Lucinda Bayly is joined by Genevieve Brammall, the media strategist leading News Corp’s push to integrate influencers beyond traditional marketing — positioning them as powerful channels for education, advocacy, and audience engagement. With deep experience shaping how major news brands connect with creators, Gen shares how she built the business case to elevate influencer partnerships from side projects to strategic drivers. Gen unpacks the convergence of creator culture and traditional media, exploring why affinity now outweighs authority in building trust, and how this shift is reshaping opportunities for brands, publishers, and PR teams. She offers practical advice on overcoming internal resistance, crafting social-first tones of voice, and leveraging the credibility of established media to enhance influencer-led campaigns. The episode also dives into broader industry challenges — from the ongoing trust crisis facing traditional media to the rising expectations of digital audiences. Gen shares candid reflections on lessons learned from bridging these worlds, and what every PR professional should keep in mind when developing campaigns that combine the reach of creators with the reliability of mainstream media.Connect with Genevieve Brammall: https://www.linkedin.com/in/genevieve-brammall/

  • All the internet girlies are pop stars now

    This week on PR/etty Average, we’re joined by our Social Media & Content Executive, Teagan, for her podcast debut. Soph kicks things off with a classic round of blind Q&As—because what better way to welcome a new co-worker than with a little friendly interrogation? We also dive into our favourite cultural shift right now: the "internet girl to pop star" pipeline - think Addison Rae, Sabrina Carpenter, Olivia Rodrigo, and the wild, brilliant PR transformations that took them from so-called "cringe" internet personas to full-blown pop culture icons. Expect some laughs, a few lightbulb moments, and the usual rollercoaster of tangents. Just another classic week at BPR HQ.

  • The new rules of media with Gemma Acton
    In this episode of PR/etty Average, Lucinda Bayly is joined by Gemma Acton, one of Australia's most respected media and finance voices, for a wide-ranging and insightful conversation on the ever-changing landscape of journalism — and how PR professionals can meaningfully adapt. With a career spanning global finance, broadcast journalism, and newsroom leadership at Seven Network, Gemma shares her perspective on the digital-first shift, the rise of social platforms as story sources, and the increasing importance of relevance and timing in media pitching. She offers practical advice on how PRs can better understand newsroom demands, choose the right journalists for the right angles, and build enduring, respectful relationships in an era of shrinking newsrooms and non-stop cycles. The episode also explores deeper industry challenges — from the emotional toll of frontline reporting to the exodus of early-career journalists into comms roles. Gemma speaks candidly about the resilience and passion required to build a long-term career in journalism, and the growing value of community-first storytelling across platforms like podcasts and social media.

  • Are all frogs gay?

    In this episode of PR/etty Average, Lucinda and Lulu kick things off with their new (and deeply intellectual) segment “Riddle Me This”, where they unpack the big questions in life. Like… are frogs gay? Are toads homophobic? The science is inconclusive but the vibes are strong. They then shift gears into some fresh case studies and marketing deep dives. Lucinda dissects the clever chaos of Hailey Bieber’s Vogue cover, the hilarious clapbacks in her viral “what’s in my bag” video, and the art of turning haters into headline gold. Lucinda also explores The Ordinary’s NYC storefront campaign, including their very on-brand egg carton giveaway, and Lulu unpacks Stella Artois’ 2024 ‘Steal Artois’ campaign and what made it so successful. Smart, slightly unhinged, and packed with hot takes — it’s business as usual at PR/etty Average.

  • AFW vox pop: the roast session

    The PR/etty Average girls are back on the mics for another episode of absolute chaos. Lucinda and Lulu catch up on all the office goss (you know, the usual), and Lulu goes full meltdown mode over her group assignment dramas – no surprises there. Then, after a bit of Aussie Fashion Week backlash chat, the girls decide to pretend they’re red carpet interviewers… except instead of talking to actual celebs, they just roast each other’s Instagram and TikTok content for fun. It’s unfiltered, it’s a bit feral, and honestly, it’s probably the most unserious fashion commentary you’ll hear all week. Tune in for the laughs, the tea, and a healthy dose of self-deprecating humour.

  • Building a luxury brand on TikTok, with Leah O'Connor

    Home care brand founder and content creator, Leah O’Connor, joins Lucinda Bayly for a refreshingly honest conversation about what happens when you stop trying to perfect your brand image, and start putting an authentic face to it.

  • April Fools campaigns: the audit no-one asked for
    Edwina and Lulu sit down to share their unfiltered takes on this year’s April Fools’ campaigns — the good, the bad, and the ones that should’ve stayed in drafts. From brand stunts that actually landed to ones that sparked full-blown internet chaos, we've ranked them all. They also dive into the latest online controversies causing comment section meltdowns, and round things off with a petty (but valid) list of office icks that are giving them the ick in real time. If you love a good roast with your industry chat, this one’s for you.

  • Rebrands, PR stunts & a side of fries

    The PR/etty Average hosts are back, baby! Lucinda and Lulu are finally reunited in the studio, and if you think they won’t yap your ears off about all things PR, you’d be PRretty wrong.

    This episode serves up some major wins, some PR disasters, and, fair warning, way too much food talk (our apologies if you get hungry because McDonald's and Grill’d are both on the menu). The girls also couldn’t resist weighing in on the Pretty Little Thing rebrand discourse because, let’s be honest, everyone has an opinion.

    Grab a snack or don’t, at your own risk, and tune in!
