About Ben and Steph

Ben, founder of Human Digital, has spent two decades mastering the art of standout marketing from innovative startups to global brands. Steph, founder of Cue Marketing, brings boundless creative energy and sharp strategic thinking to every challenge.

But here's the best part: their genuine friendship shines through every episode. The banter is real, the laughs are infectious, and the insights come from years of learning, failing, and succeeding together in marketing. They prove that the best work happens when brilliant people genuinely enjoy working together.

The Origin Story

The idea for Canned Podcast was born over bubbles in Cannes, France, during the legendary Cannes Lions festival. Surrounded by the world's most creative minds and breakthrough campaigns, Ben and Steph realised they wanted to bottle that energy and share the transformative power of great marketing with everyone back home, and beyond.

Built for Kiwis, Aussies, and global marketers who believe marketing can change the world, one brilliant campaign at a time.

New episodes every week. Skills, laughs, and career-changing insights guaranteed.
