Jargonless Podcast: Episode One
In the inaugural episode of Jargonless, host Tom welcomes Ami Talley, Creative Director at rbb, for an unfiltered discussion about today’s design landscape. Together, they cut through the industry buzz to examine what’s genuinely transformative versus what’s merely trendy, offering decision-makers a clear path through the creative chaos.
This conversation tackles the questions that keep brand managers up at night: Does your company actually need a comprehensive design system, or will a focused visual identity do the job? How is AI reshaping creative workflows, and what does that mean for your team’s future? Ami brings real-world examples and hard-won insights to these debates, helping listeners distinguish between design that looks good and design that drives results.
From creative pet peeves to emerging opportunities, this episode delivers practical wisdom for anyone who needs to make smart decisions about design—whether you’re leading a brand, working with creative teams, or simply trying to understand what modern design can accomplish when it’s done right.
