There’s Always Room at the Community Table: A Podcast for Producers, Creatives, and Industry Leaders

Hosted by Heather Elder of Heather Elder Represents and Kelly Montez of Apostrophe, Community Table brings together producers, creatives, and industry leaders for candid conversations about the work we do, the challenges we face, and the opportunities ahead.

If you’ve been in the business for a while, you might remember the original Community Table series that Heather co-hosted with Kate Chase from 2012 to 2017. It was a gathering place for open, honest conversations about the shifting dynamics of our industry.

Now, in 2025, that need for connection and conversation is greater than ever. With AI transforming creative workflows, client relationships evolving, and the ways we create, consume, and value content changing at lightning speed, there’s so much more to talk about.

That’s why Community Table is back, this time as a podcast. Each episode, Heather and Kelly dig into what’s happening behind the scenes:

          • How creative decisions are being made in today’s agencies and brands

          • What new tools and technologies are shaping the work

          • Where opportunities and challenges lie for people at every level of the business

Whether you’re a seasoned producer, a curious creative, or someone trying to figure out how to thrive in this new era, you’ll find practical insights, honest reflections, and inspiring conversations — all served up around a welcoming table.

Our upcoming episodes feature creatives from Ogilvy, Droga5 and Orchard. 

Pull up a chair. There’s always room at the table.
