It's a double-header of ten-year anniversaries this week. Omar and Jeremy discuss Byron Sharp's recent Campaign interview, in which he criticised the "embarrassing arrogance" of marketers that would think people were interested in what they had to say about the coronavirus. Sharp's seminal marketing text How Brands Grow was published in 2010.
Sarah Frier, the Bloomberg News reporter, wrote the book on Instagram recently and reveals how the globally popular social media brand has evolved and how its founders struggled to retain control since being acquired by Facebook in 2012, just two years after launching in October 2010.
Omar and Jeremy then return to discuss some of this week's ads.
