4.3 out of 5 stars from 40 ratings
  • Ads that almost caused me to turn off the podcast because I don't want to listen to this trash

    Came over to give you 1 star JUST BECAUSE of that ad. You should be ashamed.

    Sounds like they’re trying to kill RSS now. Not good.

    Revised: this show is platforming / championing people who dangerously attack and harass vulnerable people online.

    Also, they are “influencing” the industry to aggressively blur ad content with editorial content, as they themselves do. This is unethical and shortsighted.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Ad Infinitum S4E07: What Are You So Afraid Of? with Bethany Dwyer on Fear & Advertising
Q: How can someone break free from fear?
Dwyer suggests focusing on the product's real benefits and reconsidering advertising that relies on making people feel they lack something others have.
Ad Infinitum S4E07: What Are You So Afraid Of? with Bethany Dwyer on Fear & Advertising
Q: So did you ever see the Netflix documentary Jonah Hill, I think it was Jonah Hill did, called Stuts about his therapist?
Dwyer had not seen it. Redwine describes the documentary as practical, then reflects that personal insight eventually needs to lead to action.
Ad Overload: How to Reverse the Radioification of Podcasting
Q: Can you just talk through the pod load guidance that we provided? Can you share some of the principles and practices?
Martin describes the Oxford Clock recommendation for scheduled ad breaks and a cap on total ad time, with host-read inventory maintained and produced ad time limited to help protect audience retention and advertising performance.
Ad Overload: How to Reverse the Radioification of Podcasting
Q: What do you anticipate is the impact on the outcomes from a campaign when there are acceptable ad loads versus unacceptable ad loads?
Martin says performance declines as ad load rises, while additional dynamically inserted ads are generally less resonant than host-read ads. Repeated ads, disruptive cutoffs and unsuitable placements can further harm the listening experience and increase ad skipping.
Serious Business: Dan Granger and Bryan Barletta on Where Podcasting Goes Next
Q: YouTube, Spotify, and other platforms are playing a larger role in discovery and money. How much power should creators and publishers be comfortable giving these platforms, and what should they make sure they still own?
Bryan Barletta recommends treating video as a social and discovery tool, while Dan Granger urges creators to build a direct audience relationship through their own database and contact channels rather than relying entirely on platforms.
