Why tracking everything your affiliates do matters more now than ever before (and what conversion protection tells us about lost revenue)If your affiliate program isn't tracking properly, you could be losing millions without realising it. Adam Ross, CEO of Awin and 21-year industry veteran, reveals exactly how AI-powered search is fragmenting the customer journey, why deterministic tracking alone won't survive the next five years, and how Awin's Conversion Protection Initiative has already recovered over $250 million in previously untracked revenue. Lee-Ann and Adam discuss his leadership approach, why probabilistic tracking methods are becoming essential, and what the convergence of influencer and affiliate marketing means for program growth.Talking Points Include:The seismic shift happening in content attribution – how LLMs are citing publisher content to answer consumer queries, why this value currently goes unrewarded, and the new tracking signals needed to expose itWhy different traffic deserves different tracking methods – different traffic has different value and possibly needs different tracking methods and different reward mechanisms, ending the era of treating all affiliate partnerships equallyThe conversion protection wake-up call – how forcing tracking upgrades revealed $16 million in additional commission and what this tells us about invisible program valueListen to Find Out More About:Why Awin does quarterly seasonal product releases to bring meaningful improvements to advertiser and publisher experiences, with the winter release focused on simplifying what is still an incredibly complex channel to help everyone get much more value out of the spaceHow the new platform aims to get smaller advertisers to money-making partnerships as quickly as possible without needing account management support, using 25 years of data to know which partnerships work, what rates to pay, and how to increase active partnershipsWhy Adam is extremely bullish about affiliate's future, noting that while this disruption is probably going to be much bigger than past changes, affiliate is a wonderful monetisation infrastructure that can be quite agnostic about how end user experiences evolveThe exciting new influx of AI startups connecting at scale with multiple brands looking for ways to monetise, where the CPA model works very well for AI recommendations based on personalisationWhy the convergence of influencer and affiliate marketing continues accelerating and why people will always want to buy from other people, even when using AI for researchWhat it means that there's got to be an acceptance that in a lot of cases, the old ways of tracking from a technical perspective are no longer going to work, whilst deterministic tracking remains super important as the baseKey Segments of This Podcast and Where You Can Tune In to Go Direct:[01:15] The unlikely journey from dentistry student to affiliate marketing through a recruiter who saw potential beyond experience[18:55] Why different affiliate traffic has different value and needs different tracking methods and reward mechanisms[27:00] How Awin's seasonal product releases bring quarterly improvements and what the winter release means for platform simplificationCall to ActionMaster the tracking evolution that's reshaping affiliate marketing success. Adam's insights into probabilistic measurement, AI disruption, and conversion protection reveal exactly why upgrading your technical infrastructure isn't optional anymore.

Our newsroom can reveal Parliament's Speaker's been filing incorrect property declarations for the past two decades. Gerry Brownlee last year amended 15 of his 19 pecuniary interests declarations, dating to 2005. But some changes still appear to be incorrect. The inconsistencies stemmed from failing to declare a property entirely - and even declaring one he didn't own. Newstalk ZB senior political correspondent Barry Soper explained further, and revealed whether Kiwis should be concerned. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Andrew Weil spent almost 20 years with the Landmarks Association of St. Louis before he resigned as executive director at the end of last year. His long career included projects to protect Sugarloaf Mound and the city's historic water towers. In his first post-resignation interview, Weil reflects on those cases and other examples of how preservationists have tried, and sometimes failed, to save St. Louis' physical heritage over the past two decades. In addition to a discussion of the success and setbacks of preservation, Weil also talked about the long pattern of “catastrophic fires” that pose particular danger to the city's historic churches.

It's 2006. Tony Blair is the Prime Minister, George W. Bush the US President, the existence of global warming is still up for debate, and a couple of new websites come out of early test versions to open their doors to the world: YouTube and Facebook. Amid all this, in an office on London's South Bank, Mark Hedges takes a new job: Editor of Country Life magazine.Two decades later, Mark has passed an astonishing milestone: he has edited 1,000 issues of the weekly magazine, the only perfect-bound, weekly glossy magazine in Britain. That's 20 years of magnificent architecture, beautiful houses, exquisite gardens, breathtaking nature, pithy columnists, and lots and lots of dogs — to name but a small selection.It seemed only fitting, then, that we invite the boss back on to the Country Life Podcast. Mark speaks to James Fisher about his unusual route in to the world of magazines, the unflinching war veteran who taught him the hard way how to polish a headline, the incomparable experience of working alongside HM King Charles, Queen Camilla, The Princess Royal and Sir David Beckham on guest-edited issues of Country Life, and how magazines — and journalism in general — will still have a part to play in an AI-driven future. It's a fascinating episode which lifts the lid on what it's like to spend decades on a magazine that's become a national institution. We hope you enjoy it.EPISODE CREDITSHost: James FisherGuest: Mark HedgesEditor and producer: Toby KeelMusic: JuliusH via Pixabay Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

On episode 1 of Doing Well with Diabetes Season 2 Rob opens with a global nutritionist panel featuring three voices from three continents—Ravi Subramanian (India/Australia), Sally Anne Shirto (Zimbabwe/South Africa), and Marina Cavalin (Brazil). Each shares how diabetes shaped their lives, their careers, and the way they support others in their communities. The episode tracks the realities of type 1 and type 2 diabetes across vastly different health systems, highlighting gaps in education, access to insulin and supplies, food insecurity, misinformation, cultural nutrition challenges, and the emotional and physical toll of the condition worldwide. Through personal stories—from childhood polo matches with royalty to managing a teen's diabetes in an under-resourced setting—the conversation reinforces a central theme: education, movement, and community support remain the strongest levers for improving global health and wellbeing for people with diabetes.

Over the past 20 years, Bravo has secured a firm grasp on the reality TV landscape—but it's not just a one-way screen. It's a mirror, too.

Together, they explore how two decades of experience — and a world of new technology (along with nearly 20 years of MusicalTalk!) — have transformed Nick's process as a composer and writer. From song ideas that have stayed with him since his student days to the tools that now bring them to life, it's a warm and insightful look at artistic growth and rediscovery. Plus, listeners will get to hear three of Nick's original demo recordings from the show, offering a rare glimpse into his creative evolution.

With only her second novel The Inheritance of Loss, Kiran Desai won the 2006 Booker Prize, the leading literary prize in the global Anglosphere, becoming - at the time - the youngest person ever to do so.

Will Desai win it again?LISTEN AD-FREE:

Bolivians have elected a center-right candidate, Rodrigo Paz, as their new president, ending 20 years of leftist political leadership. Paz's victory puts the 12-million-strong nation on a notably uncertain path as he attempts to implement significant changes for the first time since 2005. Also, authoritarian governments are increasingly using ‘foreign agent' laws to intimidate and silence civil society groups and journalists. And, a new study reports that cancer rates in Lebanon are rising faster than anywhere else in the world. Plus, Hindus worldwide are celebrating Diwali today. The festival of lights involves oil lamps, fireworks ... and a bit of friendly gambling.Listen to today's Music Heard on Air. Learn about your ad choices: dovetail.prx.org/ad-choices

Quote:“When this all started (generative AI for the masses), the fear was ‘this is cheating.' Now we're flipping the conversation and saying, no — this is actually a skill set you need to develop.”-Madeline LaurenoIn this episode I welcome Madeline Laurano, Founder of Aptitude Research and one of the most trusted voices in HR and TA technology.With more than 20 years of research and advisory experience, Madeline's body of work has has tracked the evolution of all things mixing hiring, business, and tech.We have known one another for a long time and are quite simpatico in our thoughts on talent acquisition, assessment, and skills based hiring.And we prove it in this show - as we discuss the ins and outs of these crazy times for HR tech, hiring, and of course- AI.So listen in and take a look into the crystal ball while staying grounded in the truth!Topics discussed and wisdom dropped include:1. Why ATS Are Going to Become ExtinctMadeline explained that ATS systems in their current form are not built for the way talent acquisition is evolving. Recruiters are frustrated because ATSs don't support the workflows or user experience they need, and they will eventually be replaced by more dynamic, integrated platforms that actually match how hiring happens today. Hello AI!2. What Her Research Says About Skills-Based HiringMadeline points out that skills-based hiring is more aspirational than real for most organizations. Aptitude Research has found that companies often treat skills like the old competency models — static, outdated, and resource-intensive — or via an over reliance on AI. Both make it hard to translate into practice without validated frameworks and clean, usable data. The path fwd requires a commitment to strategy, clarity, and validation.3. How the Fast-Moving Nature of AI Impacts HR Tech BuyingMadeline notes that AI has changed how companies buy HR tech because the market is moving so quickly. In the past, companies would take years to build strategies before investing in technology, but now AI allows them to start much faster — sometimes adopting before they fully understand how to implement, which creates both opportunity and risk. Beware of AI FOMO!4. Agentic AI and Hiring — What Will the Impact Be?She described “agentic AI” as a coming wave where AI systems won't just provide insights but will take autonomous actions. In hiring, this could mean systems that source, screen, and even interact with candidates automatically — raising big questions about oversight, fairness, and how much decision-making organizations are comfortable handing off to machines. Get ready because the rise of autonomous hiring agents is upon us.5. The Impact of AI on Candidate ExperienceMadeline stresses that AI can either improve or damage the candidate experience depending on how it's implemented. Candidates expect personalization, transparency, and fairness, and if AI-driven processes feel opaque or impersonal, trust will erode quickly — but if designed well, AI can actually enhance communication and responsiveness. We must not villainize AI for this- there is a lot we can do enhance candidate experience and it can actually include the use of AI if done thougthfully.6. What Will This Look Like 20 Years From Now?Looking ahead, Madeline predicts that hiring will look radically different in 20 years, with skills-based approaches fully realized and AI deeply embedded into every step of the talent lifecycle. The key difference will be that technology will finally deliver on the vision of matching people to opportunities more accurately, quickly, and fairly at scale.AMEN- let's just make sure that people remain in charge!Check out the episode and learn about the trends from two of the best!& do yourself a favor and visit Aptitude Research's website where you can find free access to all of their amazing research!

Psychiatrist Muhamad Aly Rifai discusses his article "A psychiatrist's 20-year journey with ketamine." Aly recounts his first encounters with ketamine at the National Institute of Mental Health, where its rapid impact on despair reshaped his understanding of depression treatment. He explains the neurobiologic mechanisms, the shift from research to real-world practice, and the FDA's evolving stance on esketamine and off-label IV ketamine. Aly emphasizes the importance of pairing ketamine with psychotherapy, screening patients carefully, and honoring both the power and limitations of this intervention. He also highlights access challenges, safety concerns, and the need for clinicians to build structured protocols. Listeners will take away a nuanced view of ketamine not as a miracle cure but as a catalyst for healing when embedded in comprehensive, patient-centered care.

This week on Holly Randall Unfiltered, I sit down with one of the most fascinating performers I've ever met. Best known in the adult world as gay performer Reese Rideout, this industry chameleon is now stepping into a new persona: Dom Cruise. Dom has been in the business for over 20 years, and he takes me through his wild ride: from being scouted at a bodybuilding competition, to shooting with Playgirl back in the days of film, to navigating the slippery slope of gay-for-pay as a straight man. We talk about the homophobia that plagued the industry back then, how he learned to “thrust to pop,” and why twinks were always easier than bears. Dom doesn't hold anything back—yes, we even get into his supplement obsession and the science behind his microscope-tested loads.We also cover the stigma around masculinity, the mental gymnastics it took to perform scenes outside his comfort zone, and how the gay side of porn often paid better than the straight side. Dom shares how OnlyFans changed the game, why he's stepping into straight scenes now, and how his wife supports him while helping manage his career. On top of that, he's building a mainstream acting career with upcoming films like Crystal and Apophis 2029, plus a campy blood-soaked thriller called Killer Clown Girls (which, yes, lets me admit my angry clown fetish on air). This episode is part porn history, part confessional, and part insane Hollywood tale—exactly why I love doing this show.Support our show by supporting our sponsors!
