About this listen

Anson Frericks, author of Last Call for Bud Light: The Fall and Future of America's Favorite Beer, discusses his time at Anheuser-Busch as a Bud Light executive and the years of missteps thcatastropheat led up to the Bud Light-Dylan Mulvaney fiasco of 2023, a corporate castastrophe that devastated the company's bottom line and from which the brand still yet to recover from even two years later. Frericks left a year before the ill-advised ad partnership, and describes the writing on the wall that made it clear the company was headed in the wrong direction, how such an ill-advised decision was made, a different partnership that the company passed on, which would've likely not stirred up a backlash, and some of the great Bud Light ad campaigns of years past -- like Dilly Dilly, Ted Ferguson: Bud Light Daredevil and Ladies Night.
