No need to find the video, this podcast is about the history of Nike, of which Bill Bowerman was the cofounder. He wrote this book.

IDK if psyop is correct though, yes it benefitted Nike, but its ALSO great for you.

Watched a video once: jogging was a psyop from a shoe company to sell shoes. Forgot which video.
