The Washington Post announces that they are going to distribute every article they have directly on Facebook, and Twitter shocks the world by getting rid of tweet counts. Rants and raves include who's going to save advertising and a new solution for print newspapers. This week's TOM example: Thomas Edison.

In this episode number 98, Joe and Robert continue to explore the world of ad blocking. Are Apple, Google and Facebook all in this together, or are they conspiring against each other? Could there be a world in the future with all digital ads as content? In other news, Google launches mass a Gmail retargeting program to an inbox near you. Facebook launches 360 video, while Facebook Signal goes for the Twitter death march. Rants and raves include content strategy salaries and a great example of native advertising. This week's #ThisOldMarketing example: The House of Mewar (India).

In this episode number 97, Joe and Robert discuss the launch of Apple's IOS9 update and what it means for publishers and brands as it pertains to advertising and content blockers. Following on that, the boys discuss the future of digital advertising, in particular native advertising, where Joe and Robert analyze a number of charts on the present situation with native. Twitter and Bloomberg partner on a key data deal, and Facebook announces the "dislike" button (or something like it). Rants and raves include content marketing measurement and the content marketing hype cycle. This week's #ThisOldMarketing example: Burger Chef.

In this post-Content Marketing World episode of #ThisOldMarketing, Joe and Robert discuss how content is moving to the middle, and investments in content marketing technology top the $1 billion mark. Just 17% can follow the buyer's journey and GroupM announce a deal with Buzzfeed that may or may not be big news. On the paper front, Uber announces a new "in car" magazine, which is printed...on real paper. Rants and raves include Beth Comstock of GE and John Cleese.

In this pre-Content Marketing World podcast number 95, Joe and Robert talk about Newscred's $42 million dollar round and what it means for the content marketing industry. Google pushes hard on native ads inside Gmail, and what's wrong with content calendars (hint: you'll find out)? Rumors swirl around Apple launching original programming, and a CMO survey says content development tops the budget charts for 2016. Rants and raves include an "ode to Joe" and a publishing crisis.

In this episode of #ThisOldMarketing, Joe and Robert discuss an article about social media marketing being dead. Well, is it dead, or are most brands just using it wrong (the latter)? Podcasting is bigger and better than ever, and native advertising is NOT content marketing (let's say that together, shall we?). Rants and raves include experiences and a clear lack of strategy. This week's TOM example of the week: White Castle.

In this episode of #ThisOldMarketing, Joe and Robert discuss the big $48 million dollar purchase of content agency King Content, followed by a discussion around more M&A to come in 2016. Oracle buys Maxymiser for further proof. The boys then discuss, in detail, the F&W model that all brands can learn from, and, Facebook now draws more news traffic than Google (or do they?). Raves include the New York Times email newsletters and the opportunity for local publishers. This week's TOM example of the week: Sherwin Williams.

In this episode of #ThisOldMarketing, Joe and Robert talk briefly about Google, or should we say, Alphabet, before moving on to a critical issue for publishers: Online Display Advertising and its demise. Then, the boys discuss the hi-jacking of the term "content marketing" and are journalists really content marketers after all. More content marketing research as well. Raves include Target and Nike's video program. TOM Example of the Week: Aldus Pagemaker.

In this episode of PNR's #ThisOldMarketing, Robert and Joe discuss the future of content, and why so many brands and agencies are looking more at advertising opportunities than owning their own platforms. Facebook launches a new live video program for celebrities (at least for now) and the Uber of Agencies is coming to a town near you. Rants and raves include a MillerCoors video series and how some people get content marketing all wrong. This week's TOM example of the week: Arch Shaw.

In this episode of #ThisOldMarketing, Joe and Robert discuss the craziness around the Hubspot scandal (and why these things seem to happen in Boston ;). Then the boys go in-depth into a series of articles about the media landscape. Will media companies just turn into wire service companies? Who really owns the audience? Where is this all going? After a short chat about podcasting, rants include Cecil the Lion and YouTube. This week's TOM example of the week: American Bee Journal.

In this episode number 89, Joe and Robert discuss LinkedIn and Google news this week. LinkedIn limits your right to download contacts and, alas, Google+ is no more (we think). In other news, AOL releases some new content marketing research that may not be about content marketing and we find out that the inbound marketing economy really has nothing to do with inbound marketing. Rants and raves include a McKinsey report and deals from Univision and HBO. This week's #ThisOldMarketing example of the week: Flight Centre.

In this episode number 88 of #ThisOldMarketing, Joe and Robert discuss how more and more how-to videos are being pumped into YouTube, and what marketers need to do about it. Then the boys chat about major research surrounding trust and culture, both of which need sound content marketing strategies. To cap it all off, our trusty podcasters outline what the top 200 advertisers spent last year, and how content marketing is still such a small thing when it comes to paid media. Raves include Mark Zuckerberg and Comic-con. This week's TOM example of the week: Disney.

In this episode number 87, Joe and Robert discuss the new Upworthy business model in detail, and what businesses and marketers can learn from it. In addition, the boys discuss what, when and why marketers should outsource content marketing, and follow that with a disturbing article about branded content and advertising. Rants and raves include an HBR article that truly bothered Robert, and an amazing story around the autism education movement from Joe. This week's TOM example of the week: Kraft Music Hall.

In this venerable episode number 86, Joe and Robert discuss why CNN is seeing backlash for their native advertising launch. After that, the boys explain why print is really the future of digital (stop laughing). In addition, the New York Times sees amazing results leveraging Facebook for their subscription funnel, and Manifest is the latest content marketing agency merger/launch.

In this episode of #ThisOldMarketing, we saw a flurry of new content-based agencies afoot, including a deal with Daily Mail/WPP/SnapChat, a new content division from the BBC, and the Washington Post launches a freelance network. CBRE launches a new content brand/mini-magazine, while the boys discuss the end, or the beginning, of what might be called television. Rants and raves include Cannes and more Cannes.

In this episode number 84 of #ThisOldMarketing, Joe and Robert discuss two major association initiatives - one in Germany and one in Asia - around content marketing. Both associations have also taken the name "content marketing", which Joe thinks is a pretty big deal. In addition, Article Bunny launches and the boys talk about new research around the practice of native advertising. And finally, Facebook changes its algorithm again...this time around TTR or total time reading. Rants and raves include a bit of politics and a lession from media business models.

In this episode number 83 of #ThisOldMarketing, Joe and Robert discuss Twitter's CEO leaving the nest, and the opportunities that remain with Twitter as a broadcasting platform. After discussing digital's "third wave," the boys chat about the Brad Pitt/Netflix deal and why content marketing is in its golden age. In addition, Medium's recent announcement made Joe and Robert obsess about email all over again. Rants and raves include hating on content marketing and patience in publishing.
