Big news this week as PENN sells Barstool Sports back to David Portnoy and (in an obvious move) partners with ESPN to create ESPN-branded sportsbooks around the country. Could this be the end of civilization as we know it? In other news, the "Apple buying Disney" frenzy continues. Joe and Robert argue about it for 10 minutes and both thinks they won the argument. Spotify and NPR are killing off podcasts. Is the a good business move or a lack of long-term thinking? And Kai Cenat creates a mob in New York City. Should Kai have known better?

This week Joe and Robert discuss how every piece of content created has "at least" a little bit of AI in it. Meta blocks news links in Canada.

Disney CEO Bob Iger received an extension to stay as CEO until the end of 2026. Joe believes this is just enough time to sell the company to Apple (of course). Robert and Joe discuss what it will take to make that happen. Threads starts laying out advertising guidelines, but should they even do it? Joe says no and Robert says wait. Finally, the Morning Brew talks about what makes media success, but most of all, the advantages for content marketing are clear.

The big news of the week is Meta's launch of Twitter-competitor Threads in the United States. Is this finally the Twitter killer we were looking for, or just another also ran?

Could it be that the future of the US will get their news from TikTok? Robert and Joe discuss how this can go down a dark, lonely path for many. Google News announces (yet again) that it will launch soon (very soon!). And the creator-friendly site known as Twitter is opening up a flawed advertising model for a handful of people that will pay pennies on the dollar.

In this episode of #ThisOldMarketing, Joe and Robert talk about the 22-word statement from the creators of AI. Simply put, we are in big trouble. WPP launches a content engine with Nvidia that will make the production of ads quicker and easier because of AI. I know...everything we always wanted. Elon continues to push Twitter over the edge, including a big middle-finger to the EU's Disinformation Code of Practice, and the formal outsourcing of their ad unit. And finally, does purpose-driven content have a place with "everybody" brands today? Rants and raves include a fan moment at the Indy 500 and the hope that Peloton has righted the ship.

In this episode, Elon goes full Murdoch, trying to build Twitter into the next Fox News. Advertising continues to plummet for media companies and creators. How long will this ad recession last? There are rumors that Meta will announce a Twitter competitor any time now. Joe and Robert believe this is false news. And TikTok sues Montana in the goofball move of the year (by Montana, not TikTok). Rants and raves include the creator economy middle class and 71 percent of CMOs want more marketing tech budget.

The battle for AI continues...this time on the Hill. Sam Altman testified to Congress, doing his best Harrison Ford impression (you'll get the reference after listening). The writers' strike continues, and now includes generative AI at the center. And there is a new product coming out that could solve the copyright battle. Podcasting ads are going gangbusters, while Google is about the change the face of search (maybe). Rants and raves include the Daily Dracula and a lesson about advertising from Dotdash Meredith.

The next great online battle is that over trust. We are seeing this play out in front of us, first with the news of Tucker Carlson moving from Fox to Twitter, then Elon's "trust nothing" decree, and then as millions flood to follow MrBeast.

Joe and Robert discuss the impact of AI parodies from music to text (and what we should expect). Spotify goes non-exclusive with Gimlet. Was this a planned or surprise move?

Bytedance, the owner of TikTok, puts big money behind their Instagram/Pinterest clone called Lemon8. Pushing for a May launch in the states, Lemon8 is going directly after Instagram (and perhaps the US government). Will it succeed in an already crowded social media field? Bud Light gets hate mail from Kid Rock. Is that a good or bad thing? And AI continues to be the leading story in the world of marketing. When will the hurting stop? In rants and raves, Joe raves about a Lin-Manuel Miranda clip, while Robert rants about Twitter (again). This week's sponsor is Streamyard.

This week, the boys analyze the surprise announcement from Substack about how they want their customers to also be investors. Is this an innovative or inclusionary move, or a sign that the Substack business model is suffering? Some big hitters move against the proliferation of AI. Good move or too late? Twitter and Meta are both going full-out "verified" and want money from their creators. Is this a necessary evil or something we should ignore?

Oh boy is TikTok in the news this week. Now more than 150 million Americans use TikTok on a regular basis. The US government believes this is a security risk for multiple reasons. But most people aren't talking about the #1 reason (we discuss this). Streaming is down from its lofty levels. Will it continue to dip? We think it might. Is there a new streaming model on the way? And social media is going the way of the DM. What does this mean for marketers? In rants and raves, Joe raves about Rand Fishkin's ChatGPT rant while Robert rants (again) about zero-party data.

This week, TikTok is back in the news with an ultimatum from Biden's camp. The SVB collapse takes center stage, and Joe and Robert go into the weeds discussing it. Will Meta be the next AOL? We think the news is overblown. ChatGPT-4 is released and the world turns on its axis. And then there is Ryan Reynolds, who sells Mint Mobile for $1.3 billion, an entirely marketing-driven feet. How did he do it? Let's discuss. In rants and raves, Joe comments about content creation and patience while Robert raves about HBO's "The Last of Us."

TikTok is all over the news again. This time, a bipartisan committee has come up with a bill for Biden to ban TikTok. But not just that. It will give executive powers to ban pretty much anything that they "deem" a security risk. Joe and Robert believe this bill goes too far. In other news, Medium makes a "meh" announcement about Mastodon, while this week just about every major tech company launched an AI product. Oh...and tech pub Wired wrote a manifesto for using AI.

With Joe on another sabbatical, Robert hosts the amazing Paul Roetzer, the world's foremost expert on marketing and AI content. Robert asks Paul the following: 1. How do you think the development of AI-based search affects brands willingness to make content available to search engines? Will people start putting more of their content behind a gate? 2. From a content and marketing perspective – where are you most BULLISH, and where are you most CONCERNED about the impact AI is likely to have in the short and medium term? 3. I'm going to come back to the question that I asked at MarketingProfs, which is – do you think MarketingAI becomes an OS in the Marketing Department? In other words you Buy Microsoft AI or Amazon AI and it powers your email analytics, headline writing, copywriting, and first-party data pattern matching… OR… Do you think that suite solutions are more likely to just include whatever flavor of AI they buuild into their applications? 4. What are some of the developments in Marketing Artificial Intelligence that we're NOT talking about? You posted a very interesting thing on Social Media on the assembly and creation of video (https://research.runwayml.com/gen1)- Talk a bit about this development and what ELSE are we NOT talking about that we should be.

In this episode, Time and Taboola team up (is that Timeboola?) for a new eCommerce experiment. Is eCommerce the new sponsorship for publishers? The disinformation war is over. Disinformation won. And AI content is changing the business model for creators and the fight for search. Does this open a real opportunity for those who have audiences? Is AI content just a race to the bottom?
