The boys cover the ongoing Spotify/Joe Rogan saga, while Robert's new book title should be "Epic Marketing Rant." The continuing soap opera at Spotify calls into question the editorial control needs of a platform. And yes, platform also means media company. Buzzfeed outs the BAYC founders. Was this the right thing to do? And, really? Buzzfeed? More than 50 percent of all ad spending in 2022 will go to three companies. Joe thinks we need to start supporting small, niche content creators. And we have three company examples experimenting with the Metaverse. Well, not really. In rants and raves, Joe comments about the ability to create IP and NOT own an NFT, while Robert delivers an epic rant around marketing measurement. --------- Liked this show?

In this week's news, Microsoft buys Activision for $69 billion (are you kidding me?). Is this important and why should creators/marketers care? There is a new bill on the hill about data and advertising. The only thing we know for sure is that first-party data is more important than ever. Get those emails ready to go! Google/YouTube drops YouTube Originals. Can Google commit to anything? Was this a sound decision? Joe raves about a Web3 chart and reviews the online battle for Web3 between Prof G and Packy McCormick. Of course, both Joe and Robert have a take. Robert then raves about Edelman's new trust report. --------- Liked this show? SUBSCRIBE to this podcast on Spotify, Apple, Google and more.

The Information says media valuations are down except for paid subscription models. True? Well, not really. LinkedIn is going all newsroom. Will this finally be the move that vaults LinkedIn to B2B media king? Will their social audio feature help? Oh...and Jake Paul launches a sports drink while a reality star sells her farts as NFTs (you can't make this stuff up). In rants and raves, Joe comments on the Great Resignation and a big deal in NIL sports. Robert then goes old school with Harvard Business Review. --------- Liked this show?
