In the episode, O'Dowd dives into a range of compelling topics, including:

• How the power of PR and influencer marketing can democratize product launches, opening the door for brands of all sizes to compete beyond traditional paid media.

• The impact of earned media and its growing influence on traditional platforms and the evolving landscape of content distribution.

• The story behind his first big win and how it set the stage for Dolphin's expansive growth.

From producing Nickelodeon hits like Zoey 101 to partnering with IMAX on "doc-buster" features like The Blue Angels, O'Dowd's perspective sheds light on how Dolphin evolved from a production company into a collective of culture creators and marketers. Today, Dolphin operates across three core divisions:

Dolphin Entertainment, the company's original production arm, continues to deliver premium content across television, digital platforms, and feature films.

Dolphin Marketing is a best-in-class collection of agencies-42West, The Door, Shore Fire, Elle Communications, The Digital Dept., Always Alpha, and Special Projects -that spans public relations, influencer marketing, brand strategy, celebrity booking, talent management and special events across sectors from entertainment and fashion to sports and tech.

Dolphin Ventures identifies and invests in culturally resonant consumer products, live events, and new technologies, including recent moves into the liquor, AI and beauty industries.

"This conversation was an opportunity to reflect on the journey and momentum we've built at Dolphin," said Bill O'Dowd. "Whether it's producing Emmy-nominated content, launching breakthrough campaigns for creators and brands, or supporting the next wave of innovation, we remain laser-focused on building and marketing culture."
