  • What’s with the giggling?

    I love the Digiday content. Depending on my circumstances, I am subscribed or not. But when I listen to the podcast, while the content is right up my street, I find the banter and giggling most annoying. The current episode on Meta Superintelligence, NYT Amazon deal was one I was keen to listen to but gave up after 10 mins.

  • Need some old magic back

    Have been a big fan of this podcast for a long time but finding the new hosts don't have the same insight and sparkle as Brian Morrissey. Needs a tune up to maintain its greatness.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The Netflix playbook: JBPs, programmatic power, and the future of the upfront deal
Q: Sam, given the upside of JBPs and the Ad Suite, do you think Netflix will eventually go fully self-serve with its own DSP, or will it continue to rely on third-party DSPs?
The blending approach seems most likely for now: Netflix has built a robust in-house ad tech stack (Ad Suite) to unlock broader inventory, while still maintaining compatibility with major DSPs to preserve reach. A fully own DSP could happen later if they secure enough unique inventory and demand-side control, but for the moment the hybrid model enables scale and flexibility.
OpenAI's ad push begins, and The Knot is co-piloting
