35 years in ad tech, one crazy opinion: if we stopped lying, we'd have more fun. | Karsten Weide27 Apr 202600:35:47

Karsten Weide has spent 35 years inside the advertising machine. Journalist at Ziff Davis during the PC era. Built Yahoo Germany from an empty room with one phone on the floor. Sixteen years as a senior analyst at IDC modeling the digital advertising business. Now independent, and finally saying out loud what everyone in ad tech thinks but won't post on LinkedIn: the industry is lying, everybody knows it's lying, and if we all just stopped, we'd have more fun.In this episode of the ADOTAT Show, Pesach Lattin sits down with Karsten for one of the most honest conversations we've ever recorded about the state of advertising technology, AI in advertising, programmatic, brand safety, LLM content theft, and why the junior ad tech jobs are about to disappear.What we cover:Whether AI agents in advertising are the real deal or the next metaverse. Why media planners, coordinators, and junior ad ops roles are going away, not being "augmented." The PubMatic fully automated campaign and what it actually means. AI washing in ad tech press releases and why it's burying the real work. How LLM companies are destroying small publishers that can't afford to fight back. The New York Times vs. OpenAI, and why the mom-and-pop blogs are the ones getting eaten. The Google antitrust verdict and what it tells us about business ethics in tech. LinkedIn performance culture and conference enthusiasm theater. The Santa Cruz radio caller story that explains the entire value exchange in 90 seconds. The industry's greatest lies rated live: brand safety, programmatic efficiency, incremental lift, consumer-first positioning, and the universal vendor slogan that Karsten calls flat-out untrue. The one person in ad tech Karsten thinks is actually telling the truth. The empty-room origin story of Yahoo Europe. The Dragon Lady, Heather Killen, and the nine-word management philosophy every executive should tattoo somewhere visible. The HD video study where the data refused to give the client what they paid for. The ugly ad research that contradicts every Cannes trophy ever handed out. Karsten's desert island pick and why it's a dead video game developer, not a colleague.About Karsten Weide:Karsten Weide is an independent media and technology analyst with 35 years of experience across journalism, operations, and industry research. He was the founding product leader at Yahoo Germany and helped build Yahoo Europe during the Web 1.0 era. He spent 16 years at IDC as a senior analyst covering the advertising, media, and entertainment sectors. He now writes and consults independently.About the ADOTAT Show:The ADOTAT Show is the podcast for people who work in advertising technology and are tired of being lied to. Hosted by Pesach Lattin, founder of ADOTAT, we interview the operators, analysts, and executives shaping the digital ad business. No vendor fluff. No conference theater. Just the conversations people are having in the hallway but won't post on LinkedIn.

He Milked Cows Before He Milked Data — Tim Armstrong on Why AI Can't Fix Stupid | ADOTAT Show04 Mar 202600:45:23

116 views Feb 26, 2026 #AI #audio #podcasting

Tim Armstrong went from a dairy farm in rural New Zealand to leading digital transformation at Mangrove Digital in Australia. Somewhere between herding 200 cows through lightning storms at 5 a.m. and optimizing programmatic supply paths, he picked up a take so hot it might melt your entire AI strategy: People still matter more than your algorithm. Yeah. We said it. In this episode of the ADOTAT Show, Pesach Lattin sits down with Tim to talk about why 53% of marketers think their AI is underwhelming (they're being generous), why companies are firing humans based on vibes and pitch decks, why soft skills are the actual hard part, why audio advertising is the dark horse nobody's betting on, and why the ad tech industry has an "artificial complexity" problem that Tim is absolutely done tolerating. Also: desert islands, Dave Grohl on driftwood guitar, Elon Musk building coconut blockchains, and why Tim's three-year-old thinks dad just "goes to work." If you've ever sat in a meeting where someone said "let's leverage AI to synergize our pipeline" and wanted to scream — this episode is for you. Stay Bold. Stay Curious. Know More Than You Did Yesterday. #adtech #AI #programmatic #digitaladvertising #podcasting #audio #adotat

Frazer Locke has 34 years of retail and ad tech scars.

Programmatic Is Just Capitalism at Its Worst | Liz DeAngelis on Attribution Theater, Performance CTV17 Feb 202600:31:40

Liz DeAngelis from Brainlabs joins Pesach Lattin on the ADOTAT Show to tear apart everything the ad tech industry pretends is working. From programmatic advertising's broken incentives to why attribution is theater, why video completion rate is an emotional support KPI, and why cheap never actually means efficient, this conversation pulls no punches. Liz has seen it all. Mobile app marketing. The Ad Council's COVID-19 vaccine campaign. Growth at Monks. And now leading programmatic strategy at Brainlabs where she's asking the questions nobody wants to answer: does any of this actually drive business impact or are we just funding a swamp? We get into the Pinterest CTV Scientific acquisition and what it means for intent-based TV buying, why "performance CTV" is a branded concept and not a real capability, why Google can't reconcile its own platforms, why display advertising destroyed itself through measurement, why agencies can't figure out which team owns new channels, and what actually breaks first when growth outpaces maturity. Plus: hustle culture is dead, founder intuition is bullshit, and the opinion Liz softens in public but holds privately is that advertising has ruined a lot of the internet.

Gaming's $200 Billion Blind Spot with Itamar Benedy of Anzu.io | Why Brands Are FINALLY Waking Up09 Feb 202600:29:18

Gaming is the single largest media channel on the planet. Bigger than streaming. Bigger than social media. Bigger than CTV. 3.5 billion people play at least one game every month — that's 90% of everyone connected to the internet. And yet the advertising industry has spent the last two decades pretending gaming doesn't exist. In this interview, I sit down with Itamar Benedy, the founder and CEO of Anzu, the company pioneering programmatic in-game advertising with native 3D ad placements inside video games. After eight years building Anzu, Itamar says they haven't even hit 1% of the journey — and explains why that's both the most honest and the most terrifying thing a founder can admit. We dig into why "the year of gaming advertising" has been promised every single January since the Blackberry era and never delivered. Why brands are finally moving budget into gaming — some because the performance arbitrage is undeniable, others because every other channel is collapsing under them. And some just because McKinsey told them to. We break down the infamous Netflix campaign disaster — when Netflix ran ads inside games telling players to stop playing and go watch Netflix — and why that's the perfect case study for everything brands get wrong about gaming audiences. The irony? Netflix is now a gaming company with an ad-supported tier as its fastest-growing revenue line. Itamar explains why lumping 3.5 billion people into one category called "gamers" is the laziest move in media buying, why in-game advertising is essentially digital out-of-home but with actual measurement and targeting, and why the gaming industry sabotaged its own advertising potential for years by going to war with the companies that make advertising work. This conversation is essential viewing for CMOs, media buyers, brand strategists, ad tech professionals, and anyone trying to understand where attention is actually going in 2025 and beyond. ABOUT ITAMAR BENEDY: Itamar Benedy is the founder and CEO of Anzu, a leading in-game advertising platform that delivers programmatic, brand-safe ad placements rendered natively in 3D within video game environments. Anzu works with major brands and game publishers to bridge the gap between where audiences spend their time and where advertising dollars actually go.

Sam Bloom, Head of Partnerships at PMG, returns to the ADOTAT Show for round two. Either that's heroic or deeply concerning.

We also dive deep into CTV's graduation from high school (still figuring out laundry), why attention metrics are overrated, the coming tsunami of AI slop hitting connected TV, and how retail media is becoming identity infrastructure for a post-cookie world.
