Skechers’ $9B Play, Apple and Bono (ugh), and the Vatican’s Brand Moment

Marketing isn't just logic — it's culture. The Meme Team podcast decodes both. Let's goooo!
- Apple Vision Pro and Bono (it's like they're trying to make 'fetch' happen)
- Skechers doubled down on this one audience segment — and got to a $9.4 billion valuation
- Final Destination's brilliant guerilla marketing (but if I see a truck with logs on the freeway, I am taking the next exit)
- Pope Leo XIV (is this America's big marketing opportunity?)
