What Happens In Adops

This week I chat with Todd Garland the CEO of Buysellads. Todd goes anti-adtech and I try to figure out where it all went wrong. We discuss audience targeting, Facebook, and the IAB. And I'm not gonna lie Todd's drink of choice is... well it's weird.

This week I talk to Andrew Casale (Index Exchange) and Matthew Scott Goldstein, aka MSG. We talk about a lot of macro industry trends. From SSP/DSP consolidation, to the worst kept secret in ad tech M&A, to the future of the PMP.

This week I do a dumb thing. I also talk to Ari Paparo, CEO of Beeswax. We discuss the 'drilling on my land for oil' problem, the tragedy of the commons problem, and what game theory says about infinite repeated games. And that's just the first 5 minutes.

I talk to Jarrod Dicker the Head of Commercial Product & Technology for The Washington Post. We dig into how publishers (even stodgy legacy ones) can innovate, what he thinks about programmatic native, and who's yearly letter no one in adtech should miss.

I talk to Rob Beeler the chairman of AdMonsters and Founder of Beeler.Tech about managing your team and how to keep new hires motivated.

I also speak with Ben Kneen (@adopsinsider) about auction dynamics, adblocking, and other nerdy adtech topics.
