The first ever This Old Marketing where both Robert and Joe are NOT recording at the same time. If anything, you'll get a kick out of this episode for that reason.

TikTok is in the news again. Does the impending ban and their emergency motion mean anything at all?

Ad giant Omnicom merges with Interpublic in a $13 billion dollar deal.

And OpenAI releases Sora, increasing the fight over generative AI video.

Winners and losers include print catalogs and the Starbucks origin story.

Rants and raves include an article from The Australian and the idea of change in content marketing.
