In this Marketecture Live session, Alex Boras (President of Bliss, part of T-Mobile Advertising) joins Crissi Cupak (Head of Product at PMG) to unpack how advertising is evolving in the era of consumer control. They explore why one-to-one targeting is fading, how agencies are building proprietary tech, and why data alone isn't enough without intelligence. From AI foundations to new measurement frameworks, this conversation dives into how marketers can balance precision, scale, and privacy while still driving real business outcomes. Takeaways Data is everywhere, but real value comes from turning it into actionable intelligence One-to-one targeting is evolving toward cohort-based strategies Strong data foundations are critical for effective AI models Agencies must invest in proprietary technology to stay competitive Measurement is shifting from last-touch attribution to broader brand and population signals Consumer control is reshaping how brands build relationships and use data Chapters 00:00 Introduction to Marketecture Live and session topic 00:40 Bliss and T-Mobile's omnichannel data strategy 01:12 The rise of product leadership inside agencies 03:15 Challenges of building AI models with messy data 05:04 Why intelligence matters more than raw data 06:20 Moving from individual IDs to cohort-based targeting 08:02 Consumer control and the shift in data dynamics 09:02 Building digital twins for audience planning 11:08 The decline of cookie-based attribution 12:18 New measurement models using brand signals 15:10 Is one-to-one identity dead? 17:31 Data collaboration and industry-wide intelligence 18:10 Creating meaningful value exchange with consumers 20:12 Key takeaway: the future beyond one-to-one Learn more about your ad choices.

Segunda parte de la charla que mantuve hace unos días con José Manuel Guerrero Casado, profesor e investigador del Departamento de Zoología de la Universidad de Córdoba y miembro del grupo de investigación Gesbio.Si no has escuchado la primera, vete al episodio anterior antes de continuar con este.José es biólogo, doctor en Recursos Naturales y Gestión Sostenible, y lleva años investigando la conservación de la fauna silvestre, los impactos de los sistemas agrarios sobre la biodiversidad, la fragmentación de hábitats y el papel de la ciencia ciudadana. Es autor de más de 60 publicaciones científicas y combina la investigación y la docencia universitaria con una clara vocación divulgadora.La conversación gira en torno a su nuevo libro, Las víboras no cuelgan de los árboles (Editorial Almuzara), una obra que pone el foco en uno de los grandes retos actuales de la conservación: la desinformación. A través de ejemplos reales y debates polémicos —depredadores, especies “conflictivas”, percepción social de la fauna— José explica cómo los datos científicos pueden y deben guiar las decisiones de gestión y conservación.Muchas gracias por escuchar el episodio y espero tus opiniones en los comentarios de tu app, puedes escribirme también en Telegramt.me/holaivanvega o al correo aquí holaivanvega@gmail.comAgradezco siempre tus opiniones.
Rob and Jeremy took some time from Wednesday's BBMS to discuss Scott Boras' glowing comments about the O's front office on Tuesday's Ryan Ripken Show. Considering how many Boras clients are Orioles, is it a good omen that he has a respect for the way the team does business?
The return of Max Scherzer to the Blue Jays fold leads off the discussion on Exit Philosophy, on a one-year $3M deal, plus incentives, depending on innings pitched. With what is normally a five-man rotation, the Jays are now dealing with seven active starters that deserve to be there, plus injured veteran and former Cy guy, Shane Bieber. Will Jose Berrios have to be traded? Mal and Griff discuss where Mad Max fits in with the Jays on this fury road back to the World Series. Grapefruit League games have begun in earnest and while the bullpen needs to sort itself out, so does the Jays outfield with eight names for five spots. What are the early impressions of the automatic ball-strike system and how it's working in the spring, heading towards regular season use for the first time?

How good is the trade for Louis Robert Jr? What more do the Yankees need after re-signing Bellinger? Mike Lupica says it seems clear that Boras could not get any other team to pay Cody Bellinger the money he was looking for. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
While Wild Card Weekend dominated the headlines, a major MLB bomb dropped in the background. The New York Yankees are now operating under the assumption that Cody Bellinger could sign elsewhere as contract talks stall over years, not dollars. Evan, Tiki, and Shaun break down the reported standoff with Scott Boras, why the Yankees are refusing to negotiate against themselves, and why this situation feels eerily similar to what the New York Mets dealt with last year. The conversation pivots to potential fallback options, including interest around Kyle Tucker, the realities of short term high AAV deals, and why teams like the Los Angeles Dodgers and Toronto Blue Jays loom large in the background. Plus, a deeper debate on free agency leverage, market reality, and why Yankee fans may want to stay calm as this staring contest plays out.
On this extended edition of Deals & Deadlines, Matt Chernoff and sports agent/lawyer Hadley Engelhardt connect the biggest sports business stories across college football, baseball, and the NFL — all through the lens of money, leverage, media rights, and power. The show opens with a deep dive into the College Football Playoff business model, including the $4 million payout per team and how conferences like the SEC and Big Ten are stacking massive revenue advantages. The conversation expands into playoff expansion, Notre Dame’s exclusion, Group of Five access, TV windows competing with the NFL, and whether the current system actually delivers the best teams — or just the most profitable ones. From there, Matt and Hadley examine the future of bowl games, opt-outs, ESPN’s potential revenue losses, legal exposure, and why the postseason exhibition model may be nearing its breaking point. The discussion then turns to a landmark moment in college athletics: private equity officially entering the space, highlighted by Utah’s reported equity partnership that could reach $500 million. What does shared ownership mean for control, branding, NIL, Olympic sports, and the long-term soul of college athletics? On the baseball side, the show covers MLB Winter Meetings, where Scott Boras has become a full-scale celebrity power broker, securing over $1.2 billion in contracts while reshaping how agents create leverage. The episode also explores how a looming MLB CBA expiration is shortening contracts and pushing teams toward less risk, plus ESPN’s shift away from Sunday Night Baseball toward a fractured, streaming-first model. Finally, the show wraps with the NFL and global sports media: – Philip Rivers potentially returning at age 44 and what that conversation looks like from an agent’s perspective – The sudden drop in Taylor Swift’s NFL TV exposure and whether it’s a branding reset – And World Cup format changes, hydration breaks, and why “player safety” may really mean more ad inventory Smart, candid, and brutally honest — this is Deals & Deadlines at its most comprehensive. #DealsAndDeadlines #SportsBusiness #CollegeFootballPlayoff #CFPExpansion #MediaRights #BusinessOfSports #PrivateEquity #NIL #CollegeAthletics #MLBWinterMeetings #ScottBoras #MLBContracts #NFLBusiness #PhilipRivers #TaylorSwift #SportsMedia #StreamingSports #WorldCup2026 #FIFA #SportsLaw #ESPN #TVRatings #FootballBusiness #BaseballBusiness #sportseconomicsSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

For the final episode of Season 6, we close out an incredible year with someone who has always brought her own rhythm, truth, and energy to the show—Raquel Boras. No longer in the mortgage industry yet more impactful than ever, Raquel steps in with a message that directly challenges how we connect, communicate, and lead.This episode centers around one powerful question:What does Gen Z really want from us?From her upcoming documentary "I Hear You Gen Z" to her experiences traveling across 13 states in an RV, Raquel shares a raw and revealing look into what young people are thinking, feeling, and expecting from the adults in their lives—and why so many professionals are missing the mark.It's the perfect way to end a season focused on adaptation, authenticity, and leadership.Standout MomentsA Gen Z teen telling Raquel: “Stop posting brain rot. We want real advice.”The emotional weight of watching early cuts of her documentary.Stories from her cross-country RV journey filming nearly 30 young adults.The reminder that authenticity is the actual brandHumor around honey diets, RV life, and who still does Gen X dance moves.About Raquel BorasRaquel is a storyteller, mentor, and filmmaker helping bridge the gap between generations. Her documentary I Hear You Gen Z explores what young people truly think—and what they want from the adults around them. Formerly in the mortgage space, she now leads with creativity, heart, and a commitment to authentic voices.Final ReflectionIf this season has taught us anything, it's that leadership isn't about knowing all the answers—it's about connecting with the people who need us most. And as Raquel reminds us, Gen Z isn't waiting for us to entertain them. They're waiting for us to lead them.Season 6 ends with clarity, conviction, and a challenge:Be the adult they can trust. Be the voice they want to hear.See you in Season 7.
BT & Sal dive into the hot rumor connecting the Mets to free agent Kyle Schwarber, immediately questioning whether the power-hitting DH is a replacement for Pete Alonso or an addition. Sal loves the idea of adding Schwarber's prodigious power while weakening the Phillies, but BT argues it makes little sense for a team emphasizing defense and versatility under David Stearns, given Schwarber's lack of position and high strikeout rate. The conversation pivots to the "hardball" the Mets are playing with Alonso, with sources indicating the team is holding firm at a three-year offer, far below what Pete and Boras are seeking. They debate whether moving on from Alonso to pursue Schwarber—and finally breaking up the core—is a smart business decision, even if it sacrifices a fan favorite. They agree the Mets have options, including a Bellinger-Pete combo, and must prioritize pitching, but the Alonso-Schwarber ultimatum is the most fascinating offensive negotiation.

Jerry Recco returns for an update—but only after the guys roast him for still having an actual antenna at home. They revisit Mike Kafka's comments about staying close with Brian Daboll, then react to Michael Penix Jr. surprisingly admitting he doesn't really have teammates to lean on during tough days. The Knicks drop their first home game of the season at MSG, Scott Boras delivers another alliteration-filled pitch on Pete Alonso's free agency, and the hour wraps with a preview of Packers/Giants featuring Drew Brees on the call alongside Adam Amin.

BT & Sal bring in Hoff to dissect the growing anxiety around Pete Alonso's contract situation, which they argue is becoming a massive distraction that "handcuffs" the Mets' entire offseason. The hosts rail against Scott Boras's perceived playbook, which they believe involves holding out Alonso to maintain leverage, even potentially blocking other Boras clients like Cody Bellinger from signing with the Mets. Sal pushes the Mets to "rewrite the rules" and set a hard deadline, demanding they either sign Alonso or move on quickly to "blow the whole thing up" and execute a smart, aggressive rebuild focused on pitching and reconfiguring the defense. The core question: Can the Mets navigate this drama and make the smart business decisions necessary to finally fix their flawed infrastructure?

Today, we embark on a journey to the heart of the Peruvian Amazon, focusing on the elusive Matses people, a tribe that stands apart from the more commonly visited Boras and Yaguas. Unlike those tribes, the Matses do not showcase staged performances; instead, they live a life deeply rooted in tradition, residing in a maloca—a communal longhouse devoid of modern amenities. We delve into their unique fishing methods, particularly their use of the barbasco plant to stun fish, bringing them to the surface for easy catch. This episode, guided by Hector Vezarian of Amazon Explorers, highlights the importance of experiencing authentic indigenous culture, where visitors can engage with the Matses' daily lives, traditional crafts, and ancient knowledge of jungle medicine. As we explore this remarkable way of life, we underscore the urgency of witnessing and preserving their culture before it fades away, making this not merely a trip, but a vital opportunity to connect with a world that is increasingly at risk of disappearing.Mentioned in this episode:Check out the new Smart Travel Podcast.This week's show is supported by the new Smart Travel Podcast.

Having himself an All-star season thus far, Jeremy Peña has raised his contract value drastically following the Astros' rebuilding stage here in Houston with the departure of a few veterans this past offseason. Batting at an average of .325 with an OBP of .380 and slugging at .495, has heightened the shortstops worth and have broached the conversation around $100M regarding contract negotiations. Breaking down the conversation and Boras' new signed client, Sean and Dan are joined by KPRC 's Ari Alexander discussing the possibilities of the Astros' signing Peña back and what may his future tend to look like if he sustains this level of great play.
Seth & Sean look at who has been petty recently. Kevin Durant has especially been petty as well. Later they revisit Jeremy Pena now being represented by infamous agent Scott Boras. Plus, they look at the NBA Champions OKC Thunder as that is the team the Rockets will try to dethrone.
In this week's fan-favorite, baseball agent Scott Boras explains what sets Juan Soto and Shohei Ohtani apart.

They share exclusive stories from their time at Boras Corporation and get to sit down with Juan Soto as a part of our Boras profile.
