'Best Brands on Earth' Kicks Off With MLS, Reveals First 5 Guests
The Clios' new podcast goes behind the scenes with movers and shakers shaping the culture
Best Brands on Earth from the Clios is officially here.
Announced earlier this year at the 2026 Clio Awards, Best Brands on Earth (BBOE) goes behind the scenes with the brands that have shaped culture and earned lasting relevance. The podcast reflects The Clios’ broader commitment to celebrating the people, ideas and work shaping culture today, alongside initiatives such as the inaugural Clios on Culture event this September and the newly launched Clio Creator Awards.
The podcast is co-hosted by marketing veteran Matt Kerbel and journalist-turned-actress Hayley Clover.
The first two episodes launch today, July 14. The first episode features Kerbel and Clover as they share what listeners can expect from their interviews with CMOs, creators, founders, creatives, celebrities and more. The second episode features Major League Soccer CMO Radhika Duggal, who shares her unique perspective as an industry “outsider” who transitioned to sports marketing after a successful career spanning finance, healthcare and consumer goods. Duggal touches on what it is like to scale a rapidly growing sports brand, marketing “optimism” and the goal to convert casual tournament viewers into long-term fans.
