Sidemen was eight years into their YouTube journey when Arcade Media stepped in to manage the operation. As if they weren't already, since then, the group has surpassed heights that most creators only dream of. In this episode, we're joined by Arcade co-founder and manager of Sidemen, Jordan Schwarzenberger, to find out how the magic happens. Expect to learn the number of staff working every day to ensure the boys don't get burnout, why Jordan's team sat down last year and agreed to put brand building before brand deals, and what Covid really did to the creator landscape - as the industry wrestles to catch up with the consequences. This is the side of Sidemen you don't hear about, and is a must-listen for anyone interested in influencer-dom.

Hosted by Eve from SocialChain, SocialMinds-A Social Media Marketing Podcast pulls back the curtain on how major brands actually operate online. It’s less about theory and more about the tangible strategies discussed directly with the people executing them. You’ll hear candid conversations with marketing leads from organisations like Ryanair, Formula 1, and Innocent Drinks, where they share what works, what doesn’t, and the lessons learned along the way. Alongside these in-depth interviews, the podcast delivers straightforward, no-nonsense breakdowns of the latest platform changes and algorithm updates that you need to know about. The aim is to demystify the daily realities of social media management, transforming overwhelming trends into practical steps you can apply. This approach has made it a top-rated resource for professionals who want to move beyond the hype. Tuning into this podcast feels like gaining a direct line to the industry’s inner circle, offering a blend of high-level case studies and essential news without the filter. It’s designed for marketers who prefer their insights actionable and their advice grounded in real-world campaigns, all delivered with a conversational tone that avoids jargon. If you’re looking to understand the mechanics behind memorable social campaigns, this series provides a consistent source of clarity and inspiration.
