Last year, Reckitt Benckiser (RB) launched something 'very important' for Air Wick – VIP, a pre-poop toilet spray that you use before you go to the bathroom, to trap odors in the bowl. At the time, Havas NY developed a campaign to celebrate the launch, featuring Very Important Poopers - including a Very Important Pilot and Very Important Pianist.

This year, the brand has generated the next iteration of bringing the product story to life – 'The Very Important Podcast: The Podcast That Doesn’t Stink.' Filmed and recorded in a real public bathroom with real people, our host Dru Johnson interviews experts about how not to stink at very important things like dating, self-defense, even balloon animals.

Developed and produced by creative agency Havas New York, 'The Very Important Podcast' recently dropped on iTunes, Spotify and YouTube.
