Join us for a fascinating conversation with Darryl Campbell. Whether you see him as a marketer who does journalism or a journalist who does marketing, Darryl is a living example of how refusing to be defined by a single title can unlock new opportunities, drive innovation, and make you a more well-rounded professional.

Darryl seamlessly navigates these two seemingly disparate worlds, drawing on his experience at high-growth tech companies like Uber and Match Group to inform his compelling investigative reporting for outlets like GQ, Gawker, and The Verge.

In this episode, we'll explore how the analytical mindset of a marketer—obsessed with metrics and audience behavior—can uncover the hidden truths behind the headlines. We'll also discuss how the investigative rigor of journalism can make a marketer more impactful and astute. This is a story about the power of storytelling, the importance of data, and what happens when you combine them to create a career unlike any other.
