  • Episode 9. The Cold War adds to Advertising's delay.
    Huge GDP growth across the world, Japan notably, coupled with low interest rates and that new massive military spending in the face of a Cold War, all fuelled a boom. The emerging ‘hippy’ generation through the 1960’s. The swinging sixties, Mary Quant, Carnaby Street, Acid and the Mamas and Papas. Peace. Make love not war. A raft of new housing (some newly ‘prefabricated’ as a concept) in new ‘suburbs’ brought conspicuous consumption on housing, clothing, furniture, automobiles and cosmetics. The new ‘white picket fenced’ houses, complete with Bendix automatic washing machines first seen in 1937, and fitted kitchens, became symbols of the time. Conspicuous consumption, keep up with the Jones’s. The 1948 ship which first brought people from the West Indies was called ‘Empire Windrush’. Hence, The ‘Windrush’ generation. Once the Second World War had ended, brands that had been ready and in place, so the more sophisticated Advertising Agencies, were re-awoken.

  • Episode 8 WW2 and Advertising get put on hold...again....
    The ‘Voice of America’, Tokyo Rose, Axis Sally (an American employed by the Nazis) and William Joyce ‘Lord Haw Haw’ (American born although often wrongly referred to as being Irish, because he lived there as a child and developed an accent) with his show “Germany calling”. As Goebbels, the chief Nazi propagandist noted;“It would not have been possible for us to take power or to use it in the ways we have without the radio...It is no exaggeration to say that the German revolution, at least in the form it took, would have been impossible without the airplane and the radio…Radio reached the entire nation, regardless of class, standing, or religion. That was primarily the result of the tight centralization, the strong reporting, and the up-to-date nature of the German radio.”The BBC ‘Home Service’ broadcast a radio diet of ‘inspiring’ programmes, and of course, secret messaging to underground supporters, such as The French Resistance. To signal the start of D-Day, a Paul Verlaine poem was broadcast by The BBC radio to key French Resistance saboteurs to begin attacks - Les sanglots longs Des violons De l'automne (When a sighing begins, in the violins, of the autumn song).Of course, wireless Radio navigation was also a critical part of World War Two, so investment was continually made during the war in the radio technology, the infrastructure. But advertising was again, on hold.Stuart Fogarty is a graduate of St. Columba’s College and UCD Dublin Ireland. He is a second-generation Adman, son of an Agency CEO.

  • Episode 7 World War One, Marconi the Wireless….WW1 and The Great Depression.
