On this episode, we sit down with Jessica McGorgan, VP of Growth at The Trade Desk, to talk about how channels like CTV and retail media are changing from pure awareness plays into full-funnel drivers, why connected campaigns are more effective (and less fatiguing), and how bringing data and teams together leads to smarter, more cohesive customer experiences.

Stephen Jenkins, Founder and Managing Director at Too Many Dreams, joins us to talk about why product alone is no longer enough for B2B tech companies to stand out.

Richard Reeves, CEO at the Association of Online Publishers, joins us to talk about the evolving role of premium publishers in a fragmented, AI-driven media landscape.

Sarah Robertson, Chief Product Officer at Experian UK, joins us to unpack what’s really changing in AI-driven marketing—and what’s just hype.
