The Ad Contrarian

Thanks to the lovely people at the AAFKC, I got to hear Bob Hoffman speak last night. Bob might be better known as The Ad Contrarian. He’s something of a high priest to chronically cynical people like myself. No one can call people out on their bullshit quite like this guy, and the ad business is packed tight with epic amounts of it.

This is such an crazy business that it’s really nice to be reminded by a guy like Bob that I might not actually be going insane. So if you’re an ad agency creative who is flirting with a nervous breakdown, you should really read his blog.
