This week. I do a dumb thing. I also talk to Ari Paparo the 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.

This week I chat with Jay Glogovsky, director of rev ops at Vice. We talk about the importance of publishers owning their own data stack, how Vice can be the WaPo of data, and what's the hipster drink of choice at Vice.

This week I chat with Chris Kane, the founder of Jounce Media. We get a bit nerdy this week and dig in on the "header bidding shit layer cake", how the buy side steals publisher data (for free), and why buyers shouldn't try to be the next netflix.
