During his RM 15 podcast interview, Dr. Phil said, "I think this is a great podcast for everybody to listen to, not just people working in the specialized area of entertainment marketing. These days, where everybody's on digital and everybody has an image out there, people ought to listen to you guys, because you are the best of the best. I'll certainly be listening to your future podcasts!"

Naming their agency after the office suite they shared at CBS's TV City for over 23 years, van de Beek and Shefa are the creative duo behind many of network television and streaming's biggest hits, and are widely credited with the marketing campaigns that propelled CBS's rise to its position as America's most watched network.

For the RM 15 podcast, van de Beek and Shefa have assembled a "who's who" of entertainment industry guests, who will be interviewed by the duo about their careers, their successes (and failures), their paths to Hollywood, and their opinions about the future of the industry at large, specifically as it pertains to marketing. "Ever wonder why some movies and TV shows launch big while others are dead on day one? It's the marketing, stupid! We are true advocates for strong marketing - which is so much more than just hype," the duo said.

"We have been so incredibly fortunate to have crossed paths with so many top industry 'movers and shakers' during our careers, that we felt now would be a terrific time to interview those people on-air to discover what makes them 'tick' and to see what kind of advice they have for those of us who are always intrigued by a good success story!" van de Beek and Shefa add.
