Ari Paparo sits down with Sergio Serra, PM Lead for RTB Fabric at AWS, to explore how Amazon is transforming the foundations of programmatic advertising. They break down how RTB Fabric eliminates data egress costs, improves latency through deterministic routing, and introduces a per-billion transaction model built specifically for ad tech. Recorded at Marketecture, this conversation reveals how AWS is creating purpose-built infrastructure for SSPs and DSPs, the power of modular services like real-time throttling and OpenRTB filtering, and why Fabric might redefine the economics of ad exchanges. Takeaways RTB Fabric removes the dual tax of data egress and load balancing costs. Deterministic availability zone routing cuts latency and boosts reliability. Built-in modules add rate limiting, filtering, and error masking without extra cost. The pricing model aligns with ad tech's transaction-based economics. AWS is opening Fabric beyond its own backbone, allowing external connectivity.

Chris Perkins is the President of Model B, an independent growth marketing agency that leverages a unique blend of internal and external talent to deliver innovative solutions for clients. Under Chris' leadership, Model B has built a network of over 60 vetted agency partners worldwide and achieved significant momentum, helping brands achieve superior marketing results through a flexible, collaborative model. Chris brings decades of experience from top agencies like Ogilvy, Hal Riney, and Publicis, and was the first CMO of Brand USA, where he led a $200 million global tourism campaign delivering a 20:1 ROI. In this episode… The traditional agency model is crumbling under the weight of modern work. With teams scattered across time zones and top talent opting for freelance freedom, agencies are being forced to rethink what it means to deliver value. How do you build world-class campaigns when your best people might never meet in person? According to Chris Perkins, the answer lies in embracing flexibility instead of fighting it. Drawing from decades of experience at global agencies like Ogilvy, Hal Riney, and Publicis, Chris believes the future of marketing depends on blending small, highly focused internal teams with curated networks of external experts. His Partner Collective approach allows agencies to scale up or down instantly while maintaining top-tier quality — something that traditional hierarchies struggle to achieve. By pairing management consulting principles with this cloud-based collaboration model, Chris argues that agencies can finally align talent, technology, and client needs in a way that works for the modern era. Tune in to this episode of the Smart Business Revolution Podcast as John Corcoran interviews Chris Perkins, President of Model B, to discuss how agencies can evolve for a world of remote work and on-demand talent. They talk about what Chris learned from the heyday of big ad firms, how Model B's Partner Collective bridges global expertise, and why smaller, focused teams often outperform large ones. Chris also shares insights on designing agency systems that thrive in the post-office world.

Creating with purpose in a changing digital world, behind-the-scenes of running Ambitious Kitchen for 14 years, and managing burnout with Monique Volz. ----- Welcome to episode 544 of The Food Blogger Pro Podcast! This week on the podcast, Bjork interviews Monique Volz from Ambitious Kitchen. Monique Volz On Reinventing Ambitious Kitchen Over 14 Years Monique launched Ambitious Kitchen in 2011 as a passion project and now it has grown into her full-time business (with several employees) and a New York Times bestselling cookbook (and another cookbook on the way). In this interview, Monique shares how she has adapted to all of the changes in the food creator landscape over the last 14 years, how her priorties and definition of success have changed, and the different "eras" of her business. Due in part to an incredible season of growth during the pandemic, by 2022, Monique was burned-out. The pressure of keeping up with constant content demands — especially in the age of TikTok and Reels — prompted her to take a step back and refocus. She shifted away from the pursuit of virality, re-centered her creative goals, and leaned into the process of writing her first cookbook. In recent years, Monique has downsized her team so that she can focus on creating content (as opposed to managing a team) and returned to what she loves most: creating from a place of joy. Three episode takeaways: Building a brand takes time and adaptability — Monique spent years balancing her blog with a full-time job before taking her site full-time. In this interview, she chats about the combination of hustle, constant learning, and "right time right place" that led to the success of Ambitious Kitchen. Burnout is real, even when you're doing what you love — The constant pressure to create high-performing content eventually led Monique to reevaluate her approach and change her relationship with social media. Reinvention is essential in a changing industry — By reducing her team size, walking away from YouTube, and refocusing on meaningful content (like her cookbooks!), Monique is embracing a new chapter that aligns more closely with her values.

Nik Sharma, CEO, Sharma Brands, and James Borow, VP, Product & Engineering, Comcast, explore how direct-to-consumer performance tactics are transforming traditional TV advertising. Recorded at Marketecture Live, they discuss the rise of real-time measurement, the merging of walled gardens and open web ecosystems, and how Universal Ads is making TV as accessible and data-driven as social platforms. The conversation highlights creative testing, AI's growing role in production, and what marketers need to unlearn to thrive in the next phase of connected TV. Takeaways Direct-to-consumer brands are driving a shift toward more measurable, performance-focused TV advertising. The creative process for TV is moving closer to social media's rapid testing and iteration model. Lower production barriers and ad tech integration are making TV more accessible to smaller brands. Incrementality and third-party measurement are replacing outdated metrics and first-party trust. Creative quality and adaptability now matter more than expensive, polished production. TV's role is increasingly about amplifying social campaigns and driving results on mobile. AI is unlocking faster creative workflows, but still requires human direction and testing. CMOs need to think like measurement product managers, balancing creativity with data literacy. The future of TV advertising lies in accessibility, automation, and integration with digital platforms.

In this episode of Cloud Wars Live, Bob Evans speaks with T.K. Anand, Executive Vice President at Oracle, during Oracle AI World in Las Vegas. The discussion centers on Oracle's new AI Data Platform, a major initiative designed to help customers harness their own data to drive AI transformation. Anand outlines how Oracle's open, unified approach to managing enterprise data enables organizations to bring AI directly to their business processes, while also citing breakthrough developments in industry-specific applications.Reinventing with AIThe Big Themes:Data + AI = Business Reinvention: Enterprises cannot simply adopt AI as a bolt‑on; they must combine their private business data — workflows, applications, processes — with advanced models if they hope to reinvent themselves ahead of disruption. Anand notes that many AI/LLMs have been trained on public domain data and thus “know nothing about our customers' private data.” The AI Data Platform is designed to enable that union.Pre‑integrated with SaaS Applications: For customers of Oracle's large SaaS portfolio (e.g., Fusion, NetSuite, industry apps) the AI Data Platform offers tailored variants that are pre‑integrated with the application's data models and semantics. This means organizations get out‑of‑the-box predictive models, analytics, and agents aligned to their workflows, but still have the full platform underneath to extend or customize. This helps reduce time‑to‑value for companies using those applications.Full Stack Advantage: Oracle positions its differentiator as owning and integrating the full stack: cloud infrastructure (OCI including autonomous database), data and analytics platform, applications (SaaS) and now AI/agents. This end‑to‑end control enables closer integration between data assets, applications, and AI use cases. For example, having application workflow knowledge baked into the data platform allows faster mapping from business process to predictive agent.The Big Quote: “The AI Platform is all about helping our customers achieve AI transformation through the power of their own data."More from T.K.

This week, I talk with Mark Manson—best known for The Subtle Art of Not Giving a Fuck—about what success really costs and why it often leaves us wanting more. Mark and I go deeper than I've heard him go before: we explore his upbringing, the complex role faith and community have played in his life, and how he's learned to follow his internal compass—even when it meant walking away from huge opportunities.

This conversation is about more than career moves—it's about identity, meaning, and the choices that define a thoughtful life.

Rather than chasing after “golden eggs” of success, become the kind of person who can generate them consistently. Mark's father taught him that real security and fulfillment come from developing your own capacity to create value again and again—not from trying to protect or hoard what you've already made. Choose depth over status when building community. Mark reflects on how true community—like that found in religious, family, or workplace settings—is built on commitment and shared legacy. Recreational groups and hobbies, while enjoyable, often lack the deeper sense of belonging. If you're feeling lonely or disconnected, consider what you're willing to commit to. Build a life that prioritizes fun over status. After years of high-profile projects and burnout, Mark realized that chasing prestige wasn't worth the cost. His new rule: if it's not fun, he doesn't do it. With success comes more invitations to chase status—but the most fulfilled people are those who stay grounded in what brings them joy and meaning. Don't confuse cultural clout with real impact. Despite already having a massive online audience, Mark admits being drawn to traditional media for its perceived prestige. He ultimately found that building directly with his audience—via his creator business and YouTube—was more rewarding and impactful. Recognition is nice, but it shouldn't dictate your creative choices. The best relationships are honest, non-transactional, and earned through time. Deep friendships grow through vulnerability, shared values, and a willingness to say the hard thing. In a world increasingly shaped by status, the relationships that matter most are built on trust, not utility. Get full show notes and links at https://GoodWorkShow.com.

On a quiet afternoon in the Shenandoah Valley, Valley Today host Janet Michael and co-host Kary Haun from Shenandoah County Tourism found themselves tucked away at Flour and Water, a Woodstock favorite, for a special Tourism Tuesday episode. Their guest, Jefferson Burgess, founder and creative force behind BoBirdie Magazine, joins them for a candid conversation about golf, storytelling, and the vibrant community that inspires his work. From Reluctant Golfer to Magazine Founder Jefferson's journey into golf was anything but typical. He confesses that he didn't grow up playing the sport; instead, he was nudged onto the green by colleagues at the Virginia Mennonite Retirement Community, where he worked in marketing and sales for two decades. Initially, golf was simply a way to connect with residents and their families. However, this new hobby soon sparked a bigger idea: a golf magazine. Although Jefferson and a friend produced a first issue, life intervened, and the project was shelved. Years later, after retiring, Jefferson revisited the concept, only to find the media landscape had changed dramatically. Print magazines had faded, digital platforms had risen, and the audience's expectations had evolved. Reinventing the Golf Magazine Recognizing these shifts, Jefferson transformed BoBirdie from a traditional print publication into a dynamic, multi-platform lifestyle magazine. No longer just about improving one's golf game, BoBirdie now celebrates the broader culture surrounding golf—food, travel, art, and the unique stories of the Shenandoah Valley. Kary and Janet note that BoBirdie's appeal extends far beyond golfers. The magazine's stunning photography, engaging storytelling, and focus on local experiences make it a must-read for anyone interested in the Valley's vibrant life. Jefferson emphasizes that the magazine's success comes from collaboration and community input, not just his own vision. Telling Stories Beyond the Green BoBirdie's content reflects the diversity of its audience. For example, one feature highlights a local photographer who rides along on the golf course, not to play, but to capture images of birds. Another article pairs the Valley's best golf courses with its culinary gems, offering readers a taste of the region's hospitality. Jefferson explains that BoBirdie doesn't review courses or critique their conditions. Instead, the magazine focuses on the experience—what it feels like to spend a day in the Valley, enjoying its landscapes, people, and flavors. Community, Collaboration, and Giving Back Throughout the conversation, Jefferson credits the magazine's growth to the support of local organizations and individuals. From tourism boards to small business owners, many contribute ideas and resources, helping BoBirdie thrive. The magazine also gives back, featuring non-profits like First Tee, Habitat for Humanity, and the Veterans Golfers Association. Recently, BoBirdie collaborated with local personality Noah Shenandoah on a creative video project, further blending storytelling, humor, and community spirit. The team's willingness to experiment and embrace new media has only strengthened their connection to the Valley. Where to Find Bo Birdie BoBirdie Magazine is available both in print and online, with distribution at over 200 locations throughout the Valley, including every golf course, select restaurants, and hotels. Readers can also access stories, photography, and back issues on the magazine's website and social media channels. Jefferson encourages anyone with a story to tell or a photo to share to reach out and contribute. As he puts it, BoBirdie is a collective effort, shaped by the Valley's people and their passions. Looking Ahead As the conversation wraps up, Janet and Kary praised the magazine's quality and impact. Jefferson, ever humble, acknowledged the ongoing process of learning and improving with each issue. Ultimately, BoBirdie stands as a testament to the power of community, creativity, and the enduring appeal of a good story—on or off the golf course.

Email us: Will@faithfulpoliticspodcast.comIn this episode of Faithful Politics, hosts Will Wright and Pastor Josh Burtram speak with Dr. Brandon Bloch, historian and assistant professor at the University of Wisconsin–Madison, about his groundbreaking book Reinventing Protestant Germany: The Religious Nationalists and the Contest for Post-Nazi Democracy (Harvard University Press).Dr. Bloch explores how German Protestants grappled with complicity, guilt, and renewal after World War II, tracing how theology, nationalism, and moral reconstruction intertwined in the decades following Hitler's rise. The discussion connects these historical lessons to modern America—especially the resurgence of Christian nationalism and the uneasy dance between faith and political identity.Listeners will come away with a deeper understanding of how religion can both sustain democracy and undermine it, depending on how believers interpret power, patriotism, and divine authority.Guest Bio – Dr. Brandon BlochDr. Brandon Bloch is an Assistant Professor of History at the University of Wisconsin–Madison, specializing in modern European history, political theology, and human rights. His research focuses on how religion, nationalism, and democracy intersected in 20th-century Germany. His book, Reinventing Protestant Germany: The Religious Nationalists and the Contest for Post-Nazi Democracy (Harvard University Press), examines how German Protestants rebuilt faith and moral authority in the wake of Nazism.Dr. Bloch's work has been featured in academic and public forums for its insight into how religious identity can both challenge and reinforce authoritarian power.

In this episode of The Brave Enough Show, Dr. Sasha Shillcutt and Cy Wakeman discuss:  The power of re-remembering  Finding your voice in your 50s  Reinventing yourself and leaving past versions behind   "At some point I started to realize I had lived a dream life. I am just not sure it was my dream." - Cy Wakeman    Cy Wakeman: Drama Researcher, NY-Times Bestselling Author and Leadership Consultant   I am a drama researcher, a career I discovered accidentally and have since quantified how much drama there is in the workplace. Our research has shown that the average employee spends nearly 2.5 hours per day in drama – gossiping, tattling, withholding buy-in, resisting change and stepping down from accountability.  Drama is emotional waste – any unproductive thought or behavior – and like any other waste in the workplace, I believe drama can be eliminated through great mental processes. My work is focused on giving leaders tools to recapture that emotional waste and upcycle it into results.  I started Reality-Based Leadership in order to teach leaders and individual contributors ways to lead in reality that diffuses drama in the workplace. We have formed that into an organization that does leadership development, speaking and training, and publishes unconventional tools and leadership programs to use to diffuse drama in the workplace.     Join our online community!
