In the latest episode of The Marketing Week Podcast, we’re looking back on the stories, moments and quotes that shaped marketing in 2025.  

From it being another 12 months of “more with less” for many brands and a summer of women’s sport, to our reporting on the reality of a career in marketing for working parents and the industry’s burnout crisis, it’s been a busy year.
