Finneran's Wake

What is Culture? | Marcus Collins


Listen Later

Marcus Collins is a marketer, cultural translator, professor, and an author. 


His first book, For the Culture: The power behind what we buy, what we do, and who we want to be is now available for purchase. I strongly recommend it! 


In this episode, Marcus and I discuss: 


The definition of “culture”; The difference between “fast” and “slow” culture; Is our culture good? Cultural Icons: Michael Jackson, Beyonce, et al; “Go Woke, Go Broke”--Is it true?; Multiculturalism; The University of Michigan; Business School; Songwriting; Fashion; Corporations espousing politics; Nike; The basic tenets of good advertising; Using social media to promote a brand…


And much more!
