Episode overview In this candid, tender conversation, Jen Oliver and Jen Aks discuss what it means to tell the truth and end a relationship—especially when it was seemingly “really good.” There was no villain and no tidy explanation that satisfies logic. Jen Aks shares the pivotal choice to leave her 20-year marriage, the internal cost of trusting her body when her mind demanded proof, and how truth-telling reshaped her relationships, parenting, identity, and purpose. The conversation moves from truth as concept to truth as embodied practice: the difference between heart and gut, why the body “knows” first, and is a practical pathway to clarity, calm, and confident action. What you'll hear in this episode The moment Jen Aks realized her body was whispering… then screaming (03:17–08:01) Why it's hard to leave when nothing is “wrong” and everything looks “perfect” from the outside (03:47–05:50) The cost count: kids, guilt, family, finances, and society's scripts (15:28–21:04) A powerful reframe: not just what you're “taking,” but what you're giving through truth (21:10–22:26) A relief valve for guilt: “This is their story now” + “hold people able” (23:38–26:58) The difference between heart vs gut, and why words aren't always required for truth (13:39–14:59; 10:04–11:41) A practical tool: using hands/gesture to invite discomfort in, release it, and return to clarity (30:09–35:39) “Yes, and…”—how doubt can coexist with knowing (43:14–43:42) After the truth: shedding, spiritual awakening, and a deeper sense of mission (37:45–40:31; 49:54–50:43) Key takeaways Truth isn't always logical. Sometimes there's no checklist explanation—only a bodily knowing. Your body may speak before your mind can translate. Physical signals (nausea, headaches, agitation, craving solitude) can be information. Not having the words doesn't invalidate the truth. “The feeling is enough.” Truth has costs—and also gifts. Especially with kids: the reframe is “What am I modeling for them?”  You don't need to villainize someone to leave. A relationship can be loving and still complete. Staying can be true, too. No shame—if you stay, the work is reclaiming yourself inside the choice. Embodied practices create clarity. Calm isn't the goal; calm is the path to clarity and confidence. It's never too late to tell the truth about how you handled the past. Repair and honesty can happen years later. Memorable concepts & frameworks mentioned Heart vs. gut: heart can be emotionally compelling; gut is a deeper “knowing” (13:39–14:59) Power of gesture: hands + nervous system + emotion processing (27:41–35:39) “Hold people able” from Susan Scott / Fierce Conversations (26:09–26:58) (also references Fierce Leadership) Relationship truth + dignity, referencing relationship mediator Staci Bartley (09:02–10:04) Jen Aks' book and her TEDxFolsom talk (11:41–12:09) About Jen Aks: Jen Aks is a TEDx speaker, author, and leadership coach who helps people reconnect with their body's wisdom to unlock powerful, authentic leadership. On August 16, 2025, she delivered her TEDx talk Your Body's Hidden Intelligence: From Mindset to Bodyset, introducing a revolutionary concept that challenges decades of mindset-focused approaches.

CTV advertising may come with its share of acronyms and moving parts, but about 70% of advertisers say they plan to increase their investment in it, according to the latest industry survey from Premion. Blake Hebert, Premion's Sr Dir. of Publisher Operations, isn't surprised by that momentum. But he also knows marketers still face challenges like complexity. In Ep. 49, he talks about where the medium stands today—and how Premion is helping simplify the path for local and mid-market advertisers. Blake, who just welcomed baby #2, returned to work to help introduce Premion's baby #4 — that latest CTV survey done with Advertiser Perceptions. And no one's crying about this one: only 1% of respondents said they expect to decrease their CTV budgets.  With a rare perspective from being hands on across the buy side and sell side, from agency life at RPA to roles at Hulu and SpotX/Magnite, Blake now has a front-row seat to what's coming from publishers and platforms. He shares those insights back with internal teams and advertisers to make the CTV landscape easier to navigate. And with us in this conversation. What advertisers are learning, and what Blake explains particularly well, is that success in CTV isn't just about shifting dollars into streaming. It's about understanding how consumers actually watch content today. He was spot on: “Consumers don’t decide to watch linear or stream; they just watch…. And they're not just in one place. I'll watch Amazon Prime and then flip back over to my Hulu app.” So, advertisers have to be spot on everywhere, too, which is exactly why marketers are increasingly planning around “total TV” or converged video strategies instead of separating traditional television and streaming into different buckets. Of course, this new world can feel like a maze. Fragmentation, walled gardens, and measurement challenges are still very real issues. Blake walks us through how platforms like Premion try to simplify that complexity by aggregating inventory across multiple streaming partners and layering in data that helps advertisers reach audiences efficiently. They’re especially focused on supporting local and mid-market advertisers who can now enjoy similar strategies and tactics as the big holding company agencies. Another takeaway is about targeting. In digital advertising, the instinct is often to target audiences down to the smallest possible segment. But Blake makes the case that hyper-targeting can sometimes backfire, or just lose some efficiency, especially in smaller geographic markets. His advice? Balance precision with scale. If you pile on too many audience filters, you may end up shrinking your available audience more than you intended. We also spend time talking about a topic that seems unavoidable in every media conversation right now: AI. Blake's view is pragmatic and optimistic, particularly for local advertisers who may not have access to large creative or analytics teams. So, he says: “The sooner you can embrace it and understand how to use it as a tool, the better you'll be in the long run.” In fact, he sees #AI helping smaller businesses build creative, optimize campaigns, and generate insights in ways that used to require a lot more resources. But, like taking on CTV, the world has changed! We also touch on a few trends that may shape the next phase of CTV advertising, like the growing importance of live sports in streaming environments to new opportunities emerging around gaming and smart TV engagement. The good news for me? Blake called in from his hometown of Austin, which is the home of SXSW.  Pair that with his work as president of the local Austin chapter of the American Advertising Federation and I may be very well connected for the GSD&M party and more! I know people who know people. And now we all know a little more about CTV. To keep up with the fast-changing world of TV advertising, get the insider scoop in 30 minutes flat on what's working in CTV right now and how Premion’s putting it to work.

#413 - Il Metodo dell'Uccello GiardiniereHo conosciuto un tipo che fa una cosa assurda per rimorchiare. Fa una specie di mini-mostra artistica nel suo giardino, creando un entrata strafichissima e le ragazze impazziscono. Ancora più incredibile è che gli oggetti della mostra sono in essenza cianfrusaglie e che sono tutte blu. E' l'uccello giardiniere. E la sua strategia per conquistare la femmina… non è cantare meglio, non è volare più in alto, non è fare il fenomeno. No. Lui fa mini-mostre di blu. Piume blu. Bacche blu. Fiori blu. Conchiglie blu. E anche… tappi di bottiglia blu, pezzi di plastica blu, cappucci di penne blu... e quando ci sono tanti blu insieme, le differenze tra i blu diventano visibili. E quello… è il segnale che le femmine cercano.Oggi ciò che è raro e che in pochi sanno fare, non è “dire una cosa nuova”. È riconoscere situazioni e problemi simili. Vedere connessioni. Saper mettere ordine. Così come il far emergere differenze reali dentro cose apparentemente simili. Perché così facendo emerge il tuo gusto, i tuoi criteri, il tuo modo di scegliere e decidere.Come si collega tutto ciò al metodo dell'uccello giardiniere?Quando metti insieme cose simili, non crei confusione. Crei un contesto che rende visibili le differenze. È come la degustazione di vino: se assaggi un rosso oggi, una birra domani, un succo d'arancia dopodomani… impari poco. Ma se assaggi cinque rossi simili, uno dopo l'altro… all'improvviso senti cose che prima non esistevano: tannini, acidità, corpo, finale.Cosa traggo da tutto ciò? La fiducia non nasce quando tu dici: “Fidati di me perché sono bravo”. La fiducia nasce quando tu fai una cosa più umile e più potente: quando aiuti gli altri a capire. Quando tu fai vedere che hai esplorato il territorio, che conosci le opzioni, che sai distinguere sfumature e trade-off, e che non stai cercando di vendere a tutti costi la tua soluzione.Morale della favola: Oggi, il modo più potente per dimostrare competenza non è dire:“Ho la soluzione definitiva”. È fare quello che fa l'uccello giardiniere: Mettere insieme cose simili evidenziando le differenze. Spiegare come ragioni, non solo cosa consigli.___________________________________________________Diventa il Punto di Riferimento nel Tuo SettorePercorso di affiancamento con Robin Good(Mar-Giu 2026)-> riempi questo modulo (3 domande)-> verrai ricontattato/a entro 24 ore-> https://forms.gle/s2erEDJMkYynEES4A__________________________________________________________________Info Utili• Sostieni questo podcast:Entra in contatto con me, ottieni feedback, ricevi consigli sul tuo progetto onlinehttps://Patreon.com/Robin_Good•  Musica di questa puntata:"Stay Gold" by Birocratic, disponibile su Bandcamp•  Nella foto di copertina:Immagine ideata da Robin Good e realizzata da ChatGPT 5.2. • Ascolta e condividi questo podcast:https://www.spreaker.com/show/dabrandafriend• Archivio del podcast organizzato per temi:https://start.me/p/kxENzk/da-brand-a-friend-archivio-podcast• Seguimi su Telegram:https://t.me/RobinGoodItalia• Newsletter in Italiano:https://robingooditalia.substack.comEssere riconosciuti come punti di riferimento fidati curando invece che creando.• Newsletter in Inglese:https://robingood.substack.comHow to be recognized as top trusted influencers by becoming top sector curators. . 

The lights go down, the bass hits, and we realize one screening won't be enough. We grab two nights of Stray Kids on the big screen, get our biases wrecked by Changbin's power and duality, and come away convinced: repetition doesn't dilute the moment, it deepens it. Between the close-up interviews, unit stages, and a set design that refuses to sit still, the film turns performance into a masterclass in craft and stamina.We start with something softer but equally charged: what a “final” wave of Arashi merch means when a group has soundtracked your life. Clear files, Uchiwa, and years of magazines aren't clutter; they're a living archive. That sparks a bigger idea—turn collections into a fan-led exhibit at a cafe or gallery, with donations supporting causes that align with the artists' values. Curation by the community, for the community.From there, we widen the lens. Trainee life and dorm pressure echo our own cramped roommate horror stories; proximity builds friction, but it also creates performance chemistry you can't fake. We look at how labels are stepping up legal action against malicious posts and how online “anonymous” doesn't hold in court. And when BTS's V has private messages surface as evidence without consent, we draw a line: public figures deserve boundaries, and consent still matters, even in headline season.We also track industry shifts that signal real change. BMSG moves toward a COO and a risk compliance office—proof that creativity scales best with structure. NUMBER_i taps WME for international growth, hinting at U.S. stages and maybe a tour circuit. And for KCON, we make the Boston case—great venues, easy transit, fans who show up—and map how regional stops can build lasting audiences beyond the usual LA and (once upon a time) NYC anchors.If you're here for fandom realities, tour talk, governance moves, and the thrill of getting your heart hijacked by a performance, you're in the right place. Hit play, feel the rush, and then tell us: which moment stole your breath, and where should the next tour stop land?

This is another solo episode recorded while I'm away from the live show. No Saturday night Sports Cards Live this week. No panel. No chat. Just me, the microphone, and a collecting idea that's been on my mind for a long time. In this episode, I step back and talk about how I think about value, meaning, and enjoyment in the hobby, and how those ideas have changed for me over the years. It's a personal reflection on collecting philosophy, not a rulebook, and not an attempt to tell anyone else how they should collect. This conversation touches on how collectors respond to scarcity, checklists, pricing, and external signals, and why different approaches resonate with different people.

What if the thing holding you back from building a public presence is exactly what would make you stand out?In this episode of Supra Insider, Marc Baselga and Ben Erez sit down with Mallory Contois, VP of Growth at Maven, to unpack why this is the perfect moment for product leaders to start sharing publicly—even if they don't feel polished, interesting, or like they have it all figured out. Mallory explains how we're leaving the era of glossy, aspirational influencer content and entering one where audiences crave authenticity, relatability, and actionable takeaways.They tackle the three biggest mindsets that hold people back: the “influencer hater” who rejects performative content, the person who doesn't think they're interesting enough, and the professional who believes their work should speak for itself. Mallory breaks down why good work alone isn't enough, why consistency beats virality, and how to find your authentic voice without trying to game algorithms or chase trends.If you're a product leader who's been holding back from sharing publicly, wondering whether anyone would find your perspective valuable, or questioning whether personal branding is worth the effort—this episode is for you.All episodes of the podcast are also available on Spotify, Apple and YouTube.New to the pod?

Speaking is one of our greatest powers as humans, it is also one of our greatest fears. Many of us, especially Women, are terrified to use our voices in all matter of situations after centuries of being told we're unworthy to do so. How can Women come to reclaim, embrace, and use their voices? My guest this week, Jen Oliver, has created a vibrant business around doing just that. Jen is a speaking and communications coach and podcaster - equipping women to speak with greater impact and presence. Her approach is highly connective, collaborative, and customized. She teaches Women how to communicate REAL – in a way that is Relational, Engaging, Authentic, and Life-Altering. Her coaching goes beyond the stage and accolades. She equips her clients with tools to speak with impact in any aspect of life.On this guest episode, Jen beautifully shares about helping women to speak from their truest voice, coaching them in all types of scenarios from big stages to having a voice in their own home. Together we share our love for speaking and sharing our voices (we're both podcast hots!) and discuss the life events that can cause reluctance to be heard. Jen explains how too many women suffer dis-ease when they remain silent, people please, sugar coat or just divert and get performative. Many of us were raised to do this - culturally or as a survival mechanism, and she was one of them. Jen tells us how her work as a speaking coach addresses helping people heal and build self confidence. Jen offers stories of how she has seen over and over - women who are liberated in their voices are happier, healthier, & more prosperous in their work life and enjoy richer relationships. Without fail. Bio Jen Oliver is a speaking and communications coach and podcaster - equipping women to speak with greater impact and presence. Whether you are speaking on stage, promoting your business, or voicing your needs in the bedroom - Jen helps women to dismantle old narratives and limiting beliefs as a gateway to speaking with self-trust and cultivating  connection with any audience.

The modes and methods of medical education have changed drastically in the past decade. Social media, podcasts (like this one), and other on-demand learning formats have fundamentally shifted how healthcare professionals stay up to date and advance their practice. So what's next?

Starting a webcomic in 2026 isn't about chasing algorithms or copying what's popular — it's about building something sustainable, creative, and yours. In this episode, Brad Guigar and Dave Kellett break down what new cartoonists actually need to focus on in their first years: writing first, consistency over hype, owning your work, and building an audience the right way.You'll learn why you don't need Webtoon or Tapas, why monetizing too early can derail your career, how social media really fits into comics growth today, and why a website and mailing list are non-negotiable. This is a marathon mindset episode for creators who want to do comics for the long haul — and do them for love.Getting off on the Right FootDon't try to “game” your readership. Write about what YOU like. Readers are drawn to a creator's passion. It doesn't work the other way around.Building readership takes time and consistency. Creating for love is essential in the early years.Focus on writing as the core of comic creation. They're called comics readers, not comics lookers. It's all about the writing.Focus on creating comics for the love of the craft. The first comics may only be seen by you; embrace the process.Mistakes in the early stages are recoverable. Stop fretting over them.Common copyright fears and how to approach themOwn and control your workBuilding an audienceYou do NOT need to be on Webtoon/Tapas. Look at the comics on the front pages of those sites? Does your comic look like those? Is your content similar? If not, you're not going to fare well there. It's pretty obvious.Social media presence is still important for comic creators. Today, we recommend Bluesky and Reddit. ComicLab has Collections that provide solid social-media strategies. They're free to members and available at a one-time fee for others.Be active on social media to build your audience. Follow the Four Cs — Creation, Curation, Commercial, and KindnessHow many updates? FCS — Frequent / Consistent / Significant — there are no magic numbers.Start building your mailing list NOW with a newsletter. This will be increasingly important when you turn to monetization in a few years. You should send every comic out in a newsletter post and you should also post a weekly newsletter of no longer than 500 words per update with BTS content (to the extent you're comfortable sharing).You need a website. This is not old or outdated — it's incredibly powerful, and you need to start planning for one now… even if it's a very bare-bones site. This is a non-negotiable.Consider The 2-2-1 Rule: Two social media platforms, two newsletters (including a free-membership tier on Patreon), one website. Then, use these together to funnel traffic inward towards the website. Later, when you've launched monetization, the funnel will direct towards that.Don't listen to your reader; listen to your readersDon't mistake social media followers for income.MonetizationDON'T START MONETIZING IN YOUR FIRST YEAR. Maybe not even the second. Everything you need to know about crowdfunding is in the name. First comes the crowd, THEN comes the funding. In the first few years, you need to focus on building that crowd. The only thing worse than having no Patreon backers is having ONE Patreon backer. Hundreds of new comic creators have become derailed by focusing on monetization too soon.Comic Cons: We don't recommend them. They don't build audience. They don't have great sales unless you have a lot of merch that *does well as in-person merch* (there's a difference!). And it's very hard to make profit unless you can religiously control costs. If you're making merch to go to the show, you're doing this all wrong. Psychologically, a lot of folks like to “play” professional cartoonist by exhitibiting.Accepted into show start making stuff to sell.Start planning now for print — hi-res (400+ dpi),  bigger than final size, cmyk, maintain layers, etc. Save in the native software.Marathon thinkingPersistence is key; it's a marathon, not a sprint. If you need a schedule to post regularly, set a schedule and stick to it.Develop your aesthetic by studying good comics.Seek honest feedback to improve your work.Reach out to other comics creators who are doing stuff that's similar to yours and build networks.

Find YouTube link to watch here:  https://youtu.be/uh99t38qgxw   Shownotes Welcome to the first Programmatic Digest episode of 2026 with Ellen Parker and Manuela Cortez. This is a quick check-in, plus a trader-friendly breakdown of the biggest 2025 shifts and what to watch in 2026. We cover five trends from 2025 (AI everywhere, privacy and cookieless reality, CTV growth, RMNs going more programmatic, and supply quality/transparency). Then we close with three 2026 predictions: curation becoming "default infrastructure," AI as a co-pilot (not autopilot), and multi-identity strategies becoming standard. This episode also includes the 2026 community focus: subscribe to YouTube + the newsletter, confirm your subscription, and reach out if you want to contribute (writing, audio, or guest spots).   Here's What You'll Learn What "AI everywhere" means for traders: less manual tuning, more strategy and interpretation Why privacy-first is still a day-to-day skill, even if cookies hang around longer than expected Why CTV is no longer "experimental" and how measurement expectations are changing Why more RMNs going programmatic changes how you think about signals and audiences What "supply quality + transparency" should actually include (fees, paths, reporting depth) 2026 prediction: curation becomes the baseline (SSP curation vs curation houses vs curation desks) 2026 prediction: AI moves from rules-based automation to agent-style workflows (co-pilot mindset) Why you still need foundations first (know how to do it manually before you let AI help) Subscribe to the Programmatic Digest Podcast on your favorite platform (including Spotify) https://www.heleneparker.com/programmatic-digest-podcast/  Subscribe to the Programmatic Digest YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@programmaticdigest  Join the newsletter and confirm your subscription: https://www.heleneparker.com/newsletter/ Access the Programmatic Training here: https://www.heleneparker.com/library/ No String Attached -

Kyle Wilkinson shares the extraordinary story of creating Haus of Thrills' first major popup exhibition, The Clinic, in just 90 days, building his own creative universe under extreme time and financial pressure with no client brief and no guaranteed outcome.He reveals the reality of watching his budget double, choosing 24-carat gold over fake materials, and creating an alternative to traditional gallery spaces where dopamine-fueled social commentary meets immersive experience. Kyle's insights on the beauty of naivety, the privilege of pressure, and why knowing too much can be creativity's greatest enemy offer a masterclass in building momentum through action rather than perfection.Key TakeawaysCreate urgency for yourself — The industry is full of ideas that never happen because there's no deadline. Setting constraints forces execution and prevents endless postponement.Sit in the unknown to grow — Like a plant in a crowded rainforest, you must be willing to exist in dark, uncomfortable spaces before breaking through to the light above.Choose your own problems — When you select your own constraints and challenges, you halve the stress because you're dealing with problems you've chosen rather than ones imposed on you.The beauty of naivety protects creation — Like Noel Gallagher writing "Don't Look Back in Anger," not knowing the enormity of what you're creating allows you to just do it without crushing pressure.Budget realism hits differently with your own money — Understanding what it's like when clients spend their money creates empathy, especially when materials like 24-carat gold cost significantly more than anticipated.Do it right or don't do it at all — The world doesn't need more mediocre work. If you're going to create something, commit to making it the best it can possibly be.Play at the level you want to reach — Using framers who work with Julian Opie and Bella Freud from day one means you're already operating at the standard you aspire to achieve.Pressure is a privilege — Being in a position where you can create a show in London under your own steam, doing exactly what you want, is an incredible situation despite the stress.If you know the answer at the start, you're doing it wrong — True creativity means not knowing the outcome. If you do, you're just replicating rather than creating something new.Create for yourself first, then apply strategy — You've got to want to pick up the guitar for yourself and sing the song before thinking about the broader audience or business implications.Build emotional resilience through pressure — The growth that comes from surviving extreme creative challenges prepares you for future projects with greater confidence and capability.

Sundance feature programmer Ania Trzebiatowska joins the show to talk about curation as craft, responsibility, and intuition. From her roots in Poland to running Krakow's Off Camera festival, working in acquisitions at Visit Films, and programming U.S. and world documentary features at Sundance, Ania reflects on how taste is formed and why being pleasantly surprised when viewing submissions still matters most.We discuss the realities filmmakers obsess over, including who you know, timing, marketplace “success,” and why Vimeo analytics do not tell the full story. Ania breaks down what actually happens behind the scenes at Sundance, how programmers balance limited slots with thousands of film submissions, and why being the right fit matters more than trends or agendas.She shares why festivals need balance between urgent, heavy films and work that is entertaining, humane, and emotionally alive. Drawing from examples like André Is an Idiot and Gleason, Ania explains how character-driven storytelling can carry even the most difficult subjects. Advice to filmmakers: do your research, be clear about what you are making, and remember that programmers are rooting for you, even when the answer might still be no.What Movies Are You Watching?

In this episode of the AdTechGod Pod, guests Aaron Goldman (Mediaocean), Tony Marlow (LG Ads), and Jackelyn Keller (Jackwell Partners) reflect on the past year in advertising, the impact of AI, and the trends shaping the future. The conversation covers everything from weird meetings in 2025 to the overhyped nature of AI and retail media. The guests share insights on the importance of understanding data, the challenges of attribution, and the need for creativity in marketing. The episode concludes with a rapid-fire round of questions, revealing personal opinions and humorous takes on the industry. Takeaways AI has significantly influenced all industries, not just advertising. Naming and branding can lead to intense discussions in meetings.

In this episode, I'm joined by Joe Rey (Founder & CCO), Oliver Fuselier (COO & CMO), Mykola Smorgun (CTO) from Popology Network.We talk about why curation might matter more than AI in a world of infinite content, how Popology uses a “meta search” to pull media from multiple platforms into curated popcasts, and how they aim to decentralize digital rights management by making users the curators and ledger operators.We also cover influencer-brand sponsorship selection, permissioned data ownership, and what they're raising to scale the platform.Key Timestamps[00:00:00] Intro: Popology's mission – redesigning the attention economy, curation, and decentralized DRM. [00:02:00] Joe + Oliver's background: Decades in film/music video production and why they moved into Web3. [00:07:00] Finding the CTO: Why they needed “30,000 ft” technical architecture to scale the vision. [00:10:00] Core product: Meta search + drag/drop curation into popcasts across multiple content platforms. [00:11:00] DRM angle: Users become the “operators” by curating and ledgering content. [00:14:00] “Pathologists”: Viewers earn tokens and become members by engaging and logging in. [00:18:00] Big debate: Swipe algorithms vs intentional curation (and how they gamify adoption).

Peter Jones, who heads up Revenue at Premion, returns to Insider Interviews (see Ep 38) to educate us on the shifts in local TV advertising in a streaming-first world -- and how small businesses can compete with national brands, with greater access to sports inventory, and why measurement actually matters! Learn what "context" really means for advertisers (spoiler: consumers don't experience media in silos), how the collapse of some Regional Sports Networks has created opportunities for local advertisers, and why "smart curation" is more than an industry buzzword. But it's not just the small business that needs to adapt: it's agencies and brands, too. Peter breaks down what full-funnel capabilities now available to SMBs—from maxing out brand awareness across Premion's 210 DMAs, to measurable sales transactions, tapping 1st and 3rd party data.  And, as we gear up for playoff sports, he reminds us how technology has leveled the playing field and that local advertisers can get in the game, too! So, sports puns are pervasive in Episode 44 since part of our conversation is about Premion's new(ish) programmatic options to enable more inventory for all in live sports. Talk about a “game changer...!” Understand how local car dealerships and furniture stores can now leverage the same targeting, data, and attribution tools that Fortune 500 companies use, all while reaching their specific communities with precision. But for everyone, it's key to understand the importance of creative in driving outcomes, and omnichannel strategies (because yes, we're all scrolling during halftime), and why advertisers need to embrace data-driven decisions over personal platform preferences. "The first thing to realize is that big tech has leveled the playing field for local advertisers..." Whether you're a media buyer, agency leader, or local business owner trying to navigate the CTV landscape, this conversation delivers practical guidance on inventory, data, and measurement—the three pillars every advertiser should evaluate when choosing a CTV partner. Bottom line? The local advertising opportunity in streaming TV has never been bigger—but only for those willing to adapt, measure outcomes over impressions, and follow consumers wherever they are. Key Highlights [01:15] CTV's double-digit growth, challenges and opportunities for advertisers [02:14] What Premion does – Nine years of helping local advertisers navigate CTV [03:33] Leveling the playing field – Educating SMBs on using the same tools as national brands [05:25] Challenges and Strategies for Outcomes in Omnichannel Advertising [08:26] Tools and tactics – First-party data, pixels, attribution, and what SMBs need to track [10:48] The role of creative – Sequential messaging, AI tools, and "message to market match" [12:52] How Premion's programmatic access to sports inventory is opening doors for local advertisers [15:39] Smart Curation Explained and Full Funnel Options in 200+ markets [20:22] The dynamic nature of live sports – Why planning can be tricky but opportunity is massive [21:45] What to look for in a CTV partner – Hint: Inventory, data, measurement (plus the TAG seal of approval!)

What hidden design choices make a 125,000-person festival feel effortless—and what happens when being off by just one foot throws everything into chaos? Why do some festivals become cultural icons while others collapse spectacularly? And how did one architect watching the Fyre Festival documentary suddenly realize, “I could do this a million times better”—and then actually go do it?In this episode, Reiko Wei, design production manager at Goldenvoice (the team behind Coachella & Stagecoach), pulls back the curtain on the invisible systems, political negotiations, spatial puzzles, and human-centered decisions that shape the world's most iconic music festivals. She reveals how a show built on 1200 acres needs precision down to a single foot, why the fire marshal has the ultimate power, how Gen Z is reshaping festival culture, and why physical spaces for real connection matter more than ever in a post-COVID world.If you've ever wondered how a “giant party” becomes a safe, seamless, deeply human experience—or why these events still matter—this conversation will change how you see every festival you attend.https://goldenvoice.com/https://www.coachella.com/https://www.stagecoachfestival.com/Chapters00:00 Understanding Coachella: The Festival Experience03:19 The Role of Logistics in Event Planning06:41 Reiko's Transition from Architecture to Event Planning10:10 Collaboration with Authorities and Stakeholders13:35 The Evolution of Coachella: Adapting to Change17:00 Designing for Experience: The Importance of Flow21:15 The Art of Curation in Festivals25:02 Shifting Audience Dynamics Post-COVID27:11 The Importance of In-Person Connections30:43 Navigating Loneliness and Community31:51 Reflections on the Current Era

Preview of the Sell-Side Foundations for Traders workshop sponsored by GDB!  Sign up to this FREE workshop: https://programmaticdigest14822.ac-page.com/sell-side-workshop    Summary:  A fast, practical deep dive into how GDB redefined programmatic curation  from their early roots as a DSP to becoming an SSP focused on "Curation as a Service." John Dittar and Felipe share how refining supply paths, removing low-quality inventory, and layering intelligence into deals leads to cleaner, smarter buying. They explain how curation powers stronger brand safety, reduces pre-fraud exposure, and replaces guesswork with predictable, high-performing inventory. This conversation moves beyond CTRs and surface metrics to show how curated deals create meaningful engagement, improved conversions, and simpler workflows for traders. Here's What You'll Learn Curation as a Service, explained: how GDB cleans, classifies, and enhances every impression in real time. DSP to SSP evolution: why GDB shifted its focus to smarter supply and what that means for buyers. Beyond CTR: how removing low-quality inventory leads to real engagement and conversion gains. Operational simplicity: how curated deals reduce manual work while improving transparency and brand safety. Trader takeaways: how to use curation and clean supply paths to optimize faster, layer insights into DSP workflows, and focus on performance that actually matters.

In this episode I join Charles Manson in Oxford, England to visit the Bodleian Library (Oxford University) where he is the specialist librarian for its Tibetan Collections. Charles leads us through the streets of Oxford to visit the old Bodleian Library, founded in 1602. Then we arrive at the Weston Library to explore its collection of Tibetan manuscripts. Charles guides us through gold lettered texts about Lamdre and expiation, describes the process of textual revelation known as “terma”, and shares a warning based on his own experiences of dark retreat. Charles explains the Tibetan doctrines of the afterlife while showing a rare copy of the Tibetan Book of the Dead, muses on Coleridge's advice for visiting a library, and reflects on why he believes converts to Tibetan Buddhism should attempt to learn the Tibetan language. Charles also details his working routine as a librarian and archivist, reflects on his own academic journey from SOAS to Harvard and Oxford, and considers the role his religious faith plays in his work with Tibetan texts. … Video version: https://www.guruviking.com/podcast/ep332-oxford-librarian-of-tibet-charles-manson Also available on Youtube, iTunes, & Spotify – search ‘Guru Viking Podcast'.

GDP Script/ Top Stories for November 6th Publish Date: November 6th PRE-ROLL: From the BG AD Group Studio Welcome to the Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast. Today is Thursday, November 6th and Happy birthday to Glen Frey I’m Peyton Spurlock and here are your top stories presented by KIA Mall of Georgia. Gwinnett stepping in to help as SNAP benefits partially cut Gwinnett passes latest round of E-SPLOST Democrats take rare statewide election wins Plus, Leah McGrath from Ingles Markets on milk All of this and more is coming up on the Gwinnett Daily Post podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen daily and subscribe! Break 1: Ingles Markets 2 STORY 1: Gwinnett stepping in to help as SNAP benefits partially cut Gwinnett County is stepping up—big time. With SNAP benefits slashed and the federal shutdown dragging on, officials announced $250,000 to help six local co-ops keep families afloat. “This is urgent,” said Chairwoman Nicole Love Hendrickson. “Over 90,000 Gwinnettians rely on SNAP, and federal employees are already going without pay. The need is only growing.” The funds, pulled from leftover summer lunch program money, will stock essentials like peanut butter, flour, and even dish detergent. The co-ops—Lawrenceville, Lilburn, Duluth, North Gwinnett, Southeast Gwinnett, and Neighborhood Cooperative Ministries—will divide the supplies and distribute them countywide. Meanwhile, the Sheriff’s Office is gearing up for its Thanksgiving food giveaway, expecting to serve 3,000 families. And on Veterans Day, the county’s Stand Down event will offer food, haircuts, and health screenings for veterans and their families. STORY 2: Gwinnett passes latest round of E-SPLOST  Gwinnett voters have spoken—again. On Tuesday, nearly 70% said “yes” to keeping the extra penny sales tax for schools, marking the seventh time since 1997 that E-SPLOST has passed. It’s never failed. “Thank you, Gwinnett voters, for putting students first,” said Interim Superintendent Al Taylor. The $1.5 billion raised will fund everything from new roofs and security upgrades to air-conditioned buses and updated Chromebooks. Not everyone’s thrilled, though. Critics like Laura Hunt argue the school board’s spending is out of control. Still, many parents, like Sara Gard, see it differently. “It’s hard to cheer for more taxes, but investing in our kids? That’s worth it.” STORY 3: Democrats take rare statewide election wins   In a rare shake-up, two Democrats flipped the script on Tuesday, breaking the GOP’s total hold on Georgia’s Public Service Commission. Alicia Johnson and Peter Hubbard ousted Republican incumbents Tim Echols and Fitz Johnson, riding a wave of frustration over rising utility bills and calls for cleaner energy. Their wins mark a rare statewide victory for Democrats, who haven’t seen much success here since Ossoff and Warnock’s Senate wins. The PSC, which regulates utilities, now has a 3-2 Republican majority—but Democrats now have a voice. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.874.3200 for more info. We’ll be right back Break 2: 07.14.22 KIA MOG STORY 4: AROUND TOWN: Snellville police named one of Georgia's top law enforcement agencies  Snellville’s police department just gave its residents another reason to brag—actually, make that two. The Governor’s Office of Highway Safety named the department one of Georgia’s best, awarding first place for Distracted Driving Enforcement and Education and second place overall for departments with 46-75 officers in this year’s Governor’s Challenge. “This reflects the hard work of every officer,” the department shared on Facebook. And this isn’t their first rodeo. Snellville PD has racked up awards over the years, including the Governor’s Cup in 2019, 2020, and 2022. Clearly, they’re doing something right. STORY 5: Travis, Harris defeat incumbents in Lawrenceville City Council races Lawrenceville voters shook things up Tuesday, ousting two sitting city council members in favor of fresh faces—including a retired investigative journalist. Randy Travis, a former FOX 5 Atlanta reporter, beat Councilman Austin Thompson by a wide margin: 1,062 to 527. Meanwhile, Gwinnett Sheriff’s Office Maj. Bryant Harris unseated Councilwoman Marlene Taylor Crawford, 1,021 to 562. This all comes as Lawrenceville faces big changes—like a vote to annex 19,000 residents.
