Did you know that Volkswagen makes sausages.

This week, we look at the staying power of Catalogues.

They’ve been around since the mid 1800s, and they helped build the country.

We’ll talk about how catalogues let retailers reach people in far-flung towns and villages.

How catalogues finally allowed rural folks to have access to the same goods as city dwellers.

And how Seinfeld’s J. Peterman became an owner of the actual J. Peterman catalogue.

In celebration of World Radio Day, we look back on some of the most creative radio advertising from around the world. It’s the toughest medium to write for – but it’s also the most creatively freeing. We’ll hear commercials for a hair removal product, a fast-food series created for these confusing times and a student audio idea that attracted Taylor Swift.
