This week, Jacki and Lyle are doing something they have never done before on The Rest Is PR. That's right - they are responding to some comments that you, the audience, have left on many of the most recent episodes! Jacki and Lyle discuss a comment recently left on the recent episode regarding Mark Davies, Head of Communications for the Post Office, and the evidence he gave at the Post Office Horizon IT Scandal inquiry, with one listener asking what the role of PR actually is and whether it is simply a case of defending those you work for. Jacki agrees with this particular audience member that more needs to be done to move away from the 'spin' element of PR, and that Davies himself should certainly have asked more questions and not defended Paula Vennells as much as he did, with Jacki later bemoaning the fact that Vennells was described as less of a CEO and 'more of a PR person', much to Lyle's dismay as well! Lyle responds to a particularly forthright comment on the episode involving the brilliant Amelia and Lydia Miller from Ivee regarding the gender pay gap, with this listener asking why more isn't being made of an apparent spending gap as well! Finally, Jacki and Lyle analyse the number of comments from apparent Reform UK voters that have been left on the recent episode on the UK General Election and the importance of visual PR, with one viewer mentioning that people could learn a thing or two about PR from Nigel Farage! A first-of-its-kind episode for the podcast, and one that will no doubt be repeated - keep those comments coming!
