Marc Groman (co-host) is an internationally recognized expert in privacy, technology, and cyber security. His past roles include Senior Advisor for Privacy in the Obama White House, Chief Privacy Officer of the Federal Trade Commission, and President and CEO of the Network Advertising Initiative. His vision and innovative approaches to tackling privacy and tech issues during the Obama Administration earned him the International Association of Privacy Professionals’ 2017 Leadership Award.

Marc does not shy away from controversy, having spent countless hours debating high profile and high-stakes issues around conference tables in the Pentagon, West Wing and White House Situation Room. But if you ask Marc, the most challenging privacy and security debates take place at his kitchen table, discussing screen time, inappropriate content, and gaming with his teenage son. Marc notes that members of the President’s Cabinet rarely argued, “But all the other Department Heads get to do it” or “That’s not fair!” When not consulting, serving on various boards, or teaching at Georgetown Law School, you’ll often find Marc explaining Snapchat, YouTube, smartphone privacy settings, and Fortnite to other dazed and confused parents.

With a career marked by a record of smashed sales expectations for some of the most successful podcast networks in the industry, Allyson brings a rare combination of deep industry experience and expertise along with vast monetization success to Lipstick & Vinyl.

Allyson has helped pioneer the Podcast industry 

Well before juggernauts like “Serial” introduced the medium to broader audiences, she and her colleagues had it figured out. While at Midroll, Allyson was instrumental in breaking new ground to define what have now become the industry standards for podcast advertising and monetization.

Allyson has generated over $90 million in radio and podcast advertising revenue over the course of her career.

Lipstick and Vinyl believes that content and sales teams must collaborate- working in formation to provide additive monetization solutions that benefit creators, listeners and brands.

Lipstick and Vinyl is devoted to respecting the intimate relationship between listener and podcaster. Podcast advertising transcends traditional media placements and invasive commercials in favor of authentic endorsements indistinguishable and inseparable from core content. 

As an advocate for underrepresented voices, Allyson crafts successful partnerships between brands and creators that are both authentic and performant advertising solutions.

Allyson and the team at Lipstick and Vinyl will walk through fire to ensure every show on their network has the monetary and creative resources to connect with listeners.
