Zedge removed banners from an app with 721 million installs — half as a joke, to be consistent in a refresh-rate test. Impressions fell 38%. Revenue went up 1%. Their North Star metric rose 1.77%. Then they ran it in reverse to make sure, and got the same result. Banners might genuinely be dead.Felix Braberg goes solo for an ad-monetization interview with Ignas Danielius, Head of Ad Monetization at Zedge (the personalization company behind the 721M-install, 4.7-rated wallpaper and ringtone app, plus Emojipedia, GuruShots, and the new Dataseats AI-training-data business). They cover how ad-mon has evolved (from painful waterfalls to bidding and, ironically, back to user-value-segmented waterfalls), why banners went from Zedge's main revenue driver to a stale unit (the format is functionally unchanged since the late '90s while interstitials and rewarded have been through a conversion arms race; 5-second refresh rates kill advertiser value; misclicks and unfixable redirects), and the experiment itself: a refresh-rate test (15/20/30 seconds) with a "for a laugh" variant that removed banners entirely — run from December 8 through January, spanning the best and worst ad-ops months, with the no-banner group outperforming control for the entire duration. Ignas explains the mechanism (advertisers bid on the user, and a fast-refreshing banner is the cheapest impression to "buy" them on — remove it and later-session interstitials, numbers four through six, see fill rates explode), why the first interstitial didn't change, why Google likely drove the biggest effect, the conditions under which other publishers can reproduce it (top networks, up to 15 bidders on interstitials, low latency, a full format mix — and frequency of use matters)The takeaway: "the banner always contributes" was a status quo nobody tested. Zedge tested it. It didn't hold.⏱️ TIMESTAMPS00:00 Meet Ignas — ad monetization at Zedge05:15 How ad-mon evolved — and why waterfalls are back06:05 The banner's slow decline: a unit that never innovated09:55 5-second refreshes, misclicks & redirects — how banners kill themselves11:40 The experiment — refresh rates, and "for a laugh, remove it"14:50 The result — 38% fewer impressions, +1% revenue, +1.77% North Star17:10 Why it works — advertisers buy your user cheap on the banner21:40 Should you turn off banners?

NVIDIA GeForce DLSS 5 is officially here, and NBA 2K27 is the first title to take advantage of it! Following early leaks and initial controversy surrounding how the tech works, I had the chance to get hands-on experience both at Gamescom and at home on my RTX 5090 rig.In this segment, sponsored by NVIDIA GeForce, I break down how developer Visual Concepts actually implemented DLSS 5 into NBA 2K27 using 3D guided neural rendering. Learn how targeted, asset-specific application transforms player details, arena lighting, and crowd realism—plus my real-world performance benchmarks at 4K Ultra settings!Key Highlights: Addressing the Controversy: How DLSS 5 works when properly implemented per asset by developers rather than as a blanket filter.

PC Performance: Hands-on impressions playing at 4K resolution, ultra settings, and ray tracing on an RTX 5090 running at 160–180 FPS. NVIDIA Suite: Combining 3D guided neural rendering, multi-frame generation, and Reflex low latency for smooth gameplay. Check out actual 4K gameplay on the YouTube channel to see DLSS 5 in action!

Send us Fan MailA good comedy night doesn't have one “main course” it has a bunch of great bites, back to back, with a host who knows exactly when to move the spotlight. That's what we're serving here: a Cornucopia of Comedy sequel built from live stand-up clips, a left-field comedy song, classic impressions, and a high-energy musical closer pulled from the Laughs Unlimited universe.We kick things off with Ronnie Kenny, a true MC's MC, doing quick jokes about exercise, aging, and the strange logic people use to justify bad habits. From there we jump into a surreal fast-food parody song featuring Carlos Alazrqui (Reno 911), musician Chris Hobbs, and my longtime creative partner Bob Stobener on voiceover, proving that musical comedy can be just as punchy as a stand-up set.Then it's time for Kevin Pollak, a powerhouse impressionist and actor, with a set that taps into movie fandom and a Star Trek-inspired run of character voices that keeps escalating. We also drop into Laughs in the Park, recorded in front of a massive outdoor crowd, with ventriloquist Jay Johnson bringing that unique puppet-and-performer rhythm that made him a standout. Finally, we close with the theme music written by Robert Aguyo for our Live at Laughs TV days, with Bob Stobener on vocals, ending the show on a bright, classic-variety note.If you love a stand up comedy podcast packed with 80s and 90s comedy, live crowd energy, impressions, ventriloquism, and comedy music, hit subscribe, share this with a friend who needs a laugh, and leave a review so more listeners can find the show.Hosted by.

We go from one major gaming event to the next one as Tokyo Game Show 2026 is on the horizon, and we already have some showcase announcements to discuss for that, but first, we need to look back at some things around Gamescom 2026, including Rockstar finally showing off more of Grand Theft Auto VI to the world during the Netflix extended look. What do Sean and Marc think about what was shown and the news that has come out in previews since? 80 hours to complete, a huge map, relationship and body development mechanics, smarter police A.I. so much side stuff to do, and that's just touching the surface. XBOX has also finally unveiled the Disc to Digital feature and how it will work. It's actually already available for insiders now and soon to the entire gaming public. Does Marc think this is a good solution to at least keep the license? And does this mean for sure Project Helix will not include a disc drive? Plus, Marc's been playing Star Wars Zero Company and he has impressions, Project Helix could be a family of devices according to CEO Asha Sharma, Sony introduces PlayStation Live TV, we get info on Fable's length, could Double Fine actually make Brutal Legend 2? Delays, announcements, and more!You can also watch this episode in video form on the W2M Network Youtube Channel, please give us a like, comment on the episode, and give the channel a subscribe and follow as well: https://youtube.com/live/BlJbXa01KMA
Danny Peña and Parris Lilly return to Gamer Tag Radio to break down two unique indie titles that stood out during their playtime at Gamescom: ONTOS – From the developers behind SOMA, this sci-fi psychological horror mystery puts players in high-stakes environments filled with puzzles, branching paths, and tricky scenarios. Danny shares his hands-on experience solving the demo's puzzles, discovering new story paths, and pressing the devs on the game's mysterious art. Hello Sunshine – Parris gives a detailed breakdown of this survival-scavenging concept from Red Thread Games. Described as The Iron Giant meets Wall-E where the sun is trying to kill you, players must stay in the shade of a massive guardian robot, scavenge resources in extreme temperatures, manage heat and freeze risks, and navigate interactions with strangers in a desolate world.
Danny Peña and Parris Lilly break down their hands-on impressions and previews of three major upcoming titles from Gamescom: Chronos: Lazarus – First hands-on impressions with the new expansion! Danny and Parris discuss the faster pacing, new traversal and stealth mechanics (like short-range teleporting and invisibility), difficulty tweaks, and Bloober Team's evolution of the series. Chronicles Medieval – A detailed look at Raw Power Games' historical RTS hybrid. Blending Civilization and Age of Empires elements with a third-person camera option, real-time tactical commander combat, troop morale mechanics, and massive battles featuring up to 2,000 units.

We've hit another high point in the gaming year with the industry centered in Cologne, Germany for Gamescom 2026, and the kickoff to that each year is Opening Night Live hosted by Geoff Keighley with games both big and small appearing on the almost three-hour showcase. What did Sean and Marc think of what was shown? Any favorite games or surprises? Also, Rockstar is once again in the news, not for their upcoming Netflix showcase of Grand Theft Auto VI but because of a leaker that has leaked quite a bit of the game out to the public and although Take Two Interactive has done takedowns and even subpoenaed both Microsoft and Discord to try to find the culprit, so far he remains at large. Does this hurt the game? Plus, Sean has been playing Mexican Ninja and DuskFade while Marc has been playing Mortal Shell 2 and Beast of Reincarnation. Dave Bautista has officially been named Kratos; Horizon: Hunters Gathering is getting rebooted, Konami has a new Castlevania in development, and more!You can also watch this episode in video form on the W2M Network Youtube Channel, please give us a like, comment on the episode, and give the channel a subscribe and follow as well: https://youtube.com/live/Y1omGV9ZBrA

What does it really mean to be authentic in voiceover? In this first conversation of the new Truth in the Booth series, Anne Ganguzza welcomes voice actor and coach Tim Powers to explore why authentic voiceover is about much more than simply sounding natural. They dive into subtext, storytelling, emotional connection, predictable performances, character motivation, and the acting skills required to take someone else's words and make them feel genuinely true. Whether you're working in commercial, corporate narration, animation, or another area of voiceover, the same question remains: What are you really trying to make the listener feel? Anne and Tim also discuss why animation requires emotional truth, why imitation alone isn't enough, how practice builds authentic performance, and why the human ability to interpret and connect with a story remains at the heart of voiceover.

Check out Cam's latest novel / audio drama here! The Odyssey is almost too massive and influential to discuss in one podcast, but we're gonna do our best. In this overstuffed episode, we are breaking down all the spectacle, substance, and surprises of this gut-punch of a movie. Topics include: the effect of format across IMAX / 70mm / D-BOX, the relationship between runtime and pacing, Ludwig Göransson's electric score, an analysis of the Trojan Horse through the frame of GRRM's Red Wedding, echoes between Homer and Tolkien, an argument that Homer invented almost every subgenre of horror, Nolan's powerfully indirect approach to creature design, an avalanche of comparisons to Oppenheimer, and a very special segment with Tristan where we go deep on the tricky art of adaptation.
