I like when a brand is willing to tackle issues in their industry that aren’t just celebrating the things that are going great. That was the impetus for highlighting this branded company podcast:

Distribution Advocates Presents

They are a distributor of independent films and I listened to their episode “The Truth About Distribution” hosted by Avril Speaks. It was way spicier than I was expecting. They tell the story of filmmakers who were caught stranded after another company in the film distribution ecosystem went out of business. They use the compelling narrative to talk about how distribution works and the pitfalls that can befall filmmakers. It’s direct and it’s effective!
