Often it feels taboo, and something that people in the industry shy away from talking about. However, I believe an understanding of where we&#8217;ve come from and the motivations behind it helps to better inform our strategies and highlights a lot of important factors on how we approach our campaigns today. \u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>It was great fun discussing the history of link buying with Edd, what used to be acceptable and how far we&#8217;ve come, as well as debating ethics on the press, PBNs and exploiting your own mother. \u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Let me know what you think!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\n\n\u003Ch2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"what-is-outspeech\">What is OutSpeech?\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>OutSpeech is a monthly&nbsp;\u003Ca rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"\u002Fpr-social\u002Fdigital-pr\u002F\">digital PR\u003C\u002Fa>&nbsp;podcast which discusses and gives commentary on ongoing themes, topics, campaigns and beef (vegan options available) in the industry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>The podcast is hosted by&nbsp;\u003Ca rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"\u002Fabout\u002Four-team\u002Fjess-hawkes\u002F\">Jess Hawkes\u003C\u002Fa>, Digital PR Specialist at Impression, but we’re always looking for lovely guest speakers to take part.
