about marketing happy hour
Marketing Happy Hour began as a shared passion for marketing and, of course, happy hour!
Today, the podcast and brand are operated by Cassie Tucker and Ally Golden. This weekly podcast is more than just marketing tips—it’s a refreshing blend of career, leadership, and life insights, where listeners are invited to hang out and join the conversation, just like a traditional happy hour.
The original idea sparked for Marketing Happy Hour during a four-hour dinner in Tampa, FL, in 2020. Starting as a Clubhouse live show, blending marketing talk with a love for the food and wine industry, Marketing Happy Hour quickly evolved into a podcast to bring these inspiring conversations to a larger audience. Today, the podcast not only highlights guests from some of the world’s leading brands, but also fosters a thriving community of marketing pros and aims to be a premier resource for Millennial and Gen Z marketers and entrepreneurs navigating their industries.
