This Old Marketing

In this episode, Elon goes full Murdoch, trying to build Twitter into the next Fox News.

Advertising continues to plummet for media companies and creators. How long will this ad recession last?

There are rumors that Meta will announce a Twitter competitor any time now. Joe and Robert believe this is false news.

And TikTok sues Montana in the goofball move of the year (by Montana, not TikTok).

Rants and raves include the creator economy middle class and 71 percent of CMOs want more marketing tech budget.

The battle for AI continues...this time on the Hill. Sam Altman testified to Congress, doing his best Harrison Ford impression (you'll get the reference after listening).

The writers' strike continues, and now includes generative AI at the center.

And there is a new product coming out that could solve the copyright battle.

Podcasting ads are going gangbusters, while Google is about the change the face of search (maybe).

The next great online battle is that over trust.

We are seeing this play out in front of us, first with the news of Tucker Carlson moving from Fox to Twitter, then Elon's "trust nothing" decree, and then as millions flood to follow MrBeast.

Google and Microsoft go to battle over AI advertising products that aren't ready for market yet.

Rants and raves include Berkshire Hathaway's annual letter and Salesforce's pivot to AI.
