About this episode
The episode discusses the intersection of culture and technology with insights from guest Lawrence Edmondson.
Culture keeps revealing new layers—especially when technology enters the mix. In this episode of The Culture Lane, we talk with Lawrence Edmondson, founder of Eat Big Digital and veteran of Barbarian, VaynerMedia, and Squarespace, about how companies often miss the mark at the intersection of culture and tech—and what that means for automakers, dealerships, agencies experimenting with AI, and anyone trying to find their lane in the space.
