• Alex Cooper has launched an ad agency. The Unwell Creative Agency will act “as a conduit for brands to reach Gen Z women through live events, original productions and the parent company’s podcast network.” The agency’s first deal is a multi-year partnership with Google.


• Alex Cooper was one of those present at SiriusXM Media’s “Built with Audio” advertising showcase in New York yesterday. “I am a CEO and I’m a podcaster”, she said, “but all of that wouldn’t be successful if I wasn’t a marketer. Every single day I’m thinking about, ‘How can I push my product?’, ‘How can I push my podcast?’, ‘How can I push my movies, television shows, consumer products?’. At the core of it all, none of it would be as successful if I wasn’t thinking with my marketing cap at all times.”


• In Spain, Isabel Coello has been announced as the recipient of the PodWoman Award for 2025.
