130: 2024’s Social Media Icks: Our (Strong) Opinions on Shoddy Behaviour, Dodgy Trends & Crap Marketing

Social media – sometimes it just feels like the land of the icks. From shady MRR to banner posts that just don’t bloody make sense, we’re honestly sick of it all and used this episode as a good excuse for a rant. There’s so much we want to leave behind us in 2024, but also a few things that we’ve really enjoyed this year that we hope to see more of in 2025, so don’t worry, it’s not all doom and gloom. You’ll want to pop the kettle on and buckle in for this one!

In this episode, we’re chatting about:

Our top icks we’ve seen on social media in 2024 that we definitely don’t want to see in 2025
Going in on faceless marketers and why we hope the whole MRR thing dies a death
Getting on our high horses about banner posts
Speaking of horses – why we personally want to see more horses and alligators in 2025 🐴🐊 and how you can apply that to your content (no, we haven’t gone mad, promise)
…and so much more – there’s been a lot of icks this year!
