S5E01 - How Marketing Created Rituals

In our first episode of 2016, we look at how the marketing industry created many of our everyday rituals. We don't think twice about having bacon & eggs for breakfast, or taking a coffee break, or using soap to wash our hands.

Join us as we explore how these and many more rituals began and how they influence your life. We know you want to listen to all the ads in this show.
