Allbirds is now an AI company, Anomaly get's a new office, and NBCUniversal calls out Nielsent

We kicked today off with the top story: Apple has been quietly making advertising moves, and we reveal what they’ve been up to and why.

Then we dove into the world-famous 2-minute drill. We started by taking a look at the ever-controversial Sydney Sweeney; American Eagle doubled down and released a new spot featuring her. Then, we looked at Dua Lipa in a brand-new Nespresso spot. Jack and Geno went full "Heated Rivalry" and explored Peloton’s collaboration with Hudson Williams. In one of the weirder stories we’ve covered, Allbirds is now an AI company? We stayed on the AI train and closed the drill by looking at a viral Runway AI ad.

Carl Johnson, Founding Partner & Executive Chairman at Anomaly, joined the show to discuss Anomaly’s brand-new Paris office. He told us why he picked that location, how Anomaly can leverage its new presence, and what marketers can learn from the decision.

Then, Patrick Coffee, Reporter at The Wall Street Journal, came on to talk about the recent call-out of Nielsen by NBCUniversal. Patrick reported that, “NBCUniversal [has alleged that] Nielsen publishes inaccurate numbers that damage the valuations of media companies.”

Finally, to round out the show, Co-Founder & Partner at Cousin Labs Paul Marvucic joined to talk about how Cousin Labs is changing brand marketing on social media. They have created “fan accounts” that drive organic social content unlike anything else on the market.
