#522 - Barry Dan & Danny Weisman | On Making Media Better


Listen Later

In this combo episode, we sit down with Barry Dan and Danny Weisman, co-founders of Obsessed Media, to unpack what’s actually broken in modern media buying. From trivia-fueled debates on CPMs and upfronts to a deep dive on principal-based buying, transparency, and why so many brands are over-investing in the wrong channels, this conversation pulls back the curtain on how media really works today. Barry and Danny share why context matters more than hyper-targeting, how challenger brands can escape being “imprisoned by the algorithm,” and what it takes to build a modern media agency built around trust, attention, and impact.More from Breaking and Entering Media:💼 Follow on LinkedIn⁠   / ⁠  📖 Read our Publications⁠ https://www.breaking-entering.com/blog⁠💬 Join our Unlocked GroupMe⁠ https://groupme.com/join_group/102437...✉️ Subscribe to The Vault⁠ https://breakingandenteringadv.substa...📹 Subscribe to our :60 Advertising News Videos⁠ https://breakingandentering.beehiiv.c...🏆 Check out the Crowbar Awards to break into advertising⁠ https://www.crowbarawards.com/⁠🤝 Work With Us - Email: ⁠[email protected]
