Summary

The podcast that asks the world's top advertising professionals how they got started in the business. Hosted by Tom Christmann, CCO of DiMassimo Goldstein, an inspiring action agency in New York City. They say you’re not in advertising until you’ve been fired. Droga5 ECD Matt Ian knows a little bit about that. He was fired from his first job in advertising. But did he give up? No sir. And look at him now! In this episode of The A-List, we reel in the years with Matt as he discusses his beginnings as an aimless youth in Connecticut and then takes us through jobs at BBH NY, Chiat NY and Deutsch LA. We also discuss why words are stupid. And if anybody wants to fund Tom & Matt’s Motorcycle Tour of South America, contact Matt on twitter at his “unfortunate handle” @saintdouchebag. The A-List is brought to you by Adhouse Advertising School. Advertising Age called Adhouse New York’s newest, smallest and arguably hippest ad school. Their philosophy?
