In the past two weeks, we’ve seen a handful of brands embracing publicity stunts. There’s mac-and-cheese ice cream from Kraft and Van Leeuwen, and soup-inspired swimsuits from Panera. On this episode of Yeah, That’s Probably an Ad, we’re joined by Peter Mountstevens, chief creative officer at U.K.-based agency Taylor Herring, to chat about the history of the publicity stunt, the art of getting it right, and some of the recent campaigns making headlines.
