B2Bsides – Episode 4: Burn the Playbook

This one is all about ditching the formulas and fake frameworks. Forget the so-called proven playbooks. What actually works in marketing is curiosity, courage, and doing the work.

Inside:

• Why chasing playbooks keeps marketers stuck

• Katie Srinivasan on adaptability over age

• Adam Singer on why AI will not save broken marketing

• Book and music picks to keep your edge sharp

• A quick rant on what should not be on LinkedIn

👉 If you are tired of cookie-cutter advice, this episode is for you.

🎙️ B2Bsides, Episode 3: Post the Draft

What do Dua Lipa at Wembley, AI headshots, and a half-finished blog post have in common?

This week, Jason breaks down:

• Why the obsession with polish is killing your best ideas

• How a real moment at a stadium show reminded him what presence actually feels like

• The rise of AI-generated personal brands (and the predictable backlash that’s coming)

• What LinkedIn’s own editorial team says about “good content” — and why we should probably listen

• Plus: a spotlight on Anne-Laure Le Cunff’s “lab notebook” approach, and the case for publishing before you're ready

And in this week’s rant: why sharing your marketing strategy and Q3 budget on LinkedIn might be the worst flex of the year.

If you’ve been sitting on an idea, a rough video, or a half-written post — this one’s for you.
Post the draft.

Episode 2: Built to Clash
What do JJ French, The Clash, and B2B marketing have in common? In this episode, Jason unpacks why combining your passions with your work isn’t fluff — it’s your competitive edge. From photo pits to pitch decks, this is how to stand out in a world flooded with AI sludge.

Segments include:
🎸 What's in My Feed – The Hailey Bieber backlash and comment-farming chaos
🔥 The Big Idea – Combinatorial play, Einstein, and why your weird mix is uncopyable
📚 The Bookshelf – Careless People by Sarah Wynn-Williams
🤘 Music Picks – Chloe Kesha and Swedish Sunset Strip revivalists
🙈 Shouldn't Be on LinkedIn – The Liam Neeson-style SDR meltdown

Weird wins. Bring your whole self — and maybe a band tee — to work.

In the debut episode of B2Bsides, I dig into a few posts that actually made me stop scrolling—Kaylee Edmondson on the chaos of demand gen, Brendan Hufford on the slow death of content marketing, and why “data-driven” isn’t the brag it used to be.

Then: a look at why weird ideas matter, featuring a Minecraft villain who bans creativity, a fake old-school marketer named Cap Capperson, and a death metal Lenovo ad that actually worked.

Also:
– The post you definitely shouldn’t put on LinkedIn
– Udi Ledergor’s book (which is way too good)
– A music rec worth blasting
– And the best live photo I’ve taken in years

No frameworks. No funnel hacks. Just one marketer sharing stories, instincts, and a bit of noise.

Full show notes:

🎙️ B2Bsides – Episode 1: Weird on Purpose

Welcome to the debut episode of B2Bsides—where brand, creativity, and marketing collide in a slightly weird, hopefully insightful way.

This week:

• Why demand gen is misunderstood (and not just by your CFO)

• Why being “data-driven” is starting to feel like a red flag

• The slow death of content marketing (and what’s replacing it)

• A Minecraft villain who hates creativity, and why I’ve worked at her company

• Lenovo’s death metal ad, Tim Washer’s Cisco soap opera, the IBM one that never got approved, and the one character LinkedIn killed before he ever launched

• Plus: one post that probably shouldn’t be on LinkedIn, one book that’s too good to ignore, and two music recs—one metal, one Freddie Mercury reincarnated

• Kaylee Edmondson on the pressure cooker that is demand gen

• Brendan Hufford on the credibility collapse in B2B content

• A LinkedIn Pope meme that broke my brain

• Venom Inc. – the band that helped invent black metal (and a photo I’m genuinely proud of)

• Spencer Sutherland – like Queen got reincarnated in a disco ball

• Chloe Wilder – 18, from Nashville, and writing songs like she’s already heartbroken in her 40s

• Courageous Marketing by Udi Ledergor – basically a cheat code for brand builders who still believe in taking risks.
