According to host (and New Media Guru) C.C. Chapman, Managing the Gray is a marketing podcast about new media, social marketing, no control PR and how to embrace the evolution and not be left behind as the world moves forward. It’s a mix of tips, insights and the occasional interview.

C.C. is Partner at The Advance Guard where he helps organizations successfully navigate the uncharted waters of social media.

On PodFinder 36, we listened to a handful of Podcasts that C.C. considers to be mandatory listening on the subject.

You can find his “New Media Must Listen” Channel and add it to your own collection at the following URL.

C.C. is an early adopter, and as such it’s no surprise that he was very early on the Podcasting scene and an original member of Adam Curry’s legendary “PodSquad.” In addition to MTG, C.C. continues to produce the wildly popular Accident Hash music Podcast, U-Turn Cafe (the best of mellow and acoustic coffeehouse-style music) and One Guy’s Thoughts, a Videoblog of clips, rants and (as C.C. describes it) “who knows what else.”
