The latest episode of the Marketing Podcast Network’s MPN Meta Marketing Show features a smorgasbord of topics, ranging from the role of AI – yes, it can be used for good – and employee advocacy to marketing trends and the value of a niche; in this case, the niche is plant-based business. 

During the show, hosts Keith Smith and Debra Eckerling highlight some recent episodes of shows on the Marketing Podcast Network, and give their takes on these topics.

Straddling eight time zones – this one in particular is UK-heavy – they approach each ep with humor and hearty takeaways. It may be the most fun they have had all week; they hope the same is true for you! 

In the second episode Keith and Deb discuss: 

• Christy Smallwood’s Small Business Success Talk: AI, Cybersecurity & Tech Made Simple for Small Business | Jeff Chandler of ZJAK Technologies
• Gordon Glennister’s Influence Global Podcast: How Dell Leverages Its Employees As Ambassadors Ft. Anita Verma
• Ian Truscott & Robert Rose’s The Rose & The Rockstar: Content Marketing Institute B2B Marketing Trends
• Debra Eckerling’s GoalChat: Plant-Based Business with Marisa Baggett, Terri Freedman & Danny O’Malley

Or as Keith puts it:

• How to work with our new A.I. overlords
• How to get your staff to promote your business
• The latest from the 2026 B2B Content and Marketing Trends Report (that title’s completely on point)
• How a vegan diet makes your doctor smile
