    Super Bowl 2026: AI ads everywhere + big tech earnings: Amazon & Google

    The Super Bowl isn’t just football—it’s the biggest advertising marketplace in American TV. Kate Scott-Dawkins (live from Levi’s Stadium) joins Jeff Foster and Nidhi Shah to break down Super Bowl commercials, the cost of Super Bowl ads, and why brands still pay for the last truly mass, shared TV moment. They also unpack a major earnings week—Amazon, Alphabet (Google/YouTube), Uber, Disney, and Fox—and the theme cutting across everything: AI investment and rising capex, plus what it means for retail media, streaming ads, and sports rights economics. Topics include: Super Bowl ad “hacks” (prediction markets and skywriting), the “AI Super Bowl” creative playbook, Amazon advertising and Prime Video, Google search growth and retail ad spend, Uber’s $2B ads run-rate and AV data partnerships, Disney’s shifting profit mix, Fox/Tubi growth, and why sports rights keep squeezing margins. 0:00 – Intro: inside Levi’s Stadium vs the “advertising Super Bowl” at home 01:22 – Watching the game + what commercial breaks feel like in-stadium 02:34 – Prediction markets ad ban: Kalshi skywriting and “hacking” the Super Bowl 04:00 – San Francisco OOH: why every billboard says “AI” 04:39 – Super Bowl creative takeaways: Gemini, Alexa, celebrities 05:53 – Halftime show moments and cultural impact 07:05 – Early ratings chatter + why this reach is hard to replicate 08:17 – The reach math: what it would cost to match Super Bowl scale elsewhere 09:23 – Retail/commerce media: Walmart’s milestone and resilient growth 10:31 – Amazon results: ads, Prime Video, and audience scale 11:31 – AI capex surge: 2025 vs 2026 spending acceleration 12:07 – Alphabet/Google: $400B year, search growth, YouTube signals, CapEx jump 16:13 – Uber: $2B ads run-rate, AV strategy, Nvidia partnership, expansion 20:01 – Disney: earnings, streaming economics, and CEO succession signals 25:18 – Fox: sports rights pressure, Tubi growth, and ad category strength 29:44 – Europe: AI adoption in marketing/sales and budget implications 32:25 – Wrap-up + what to watch next (Snap note)

    Meta’s Singapore billing surprise, LinkedIn growth, & NBCU’s big month

    Meta’s ad engine keeps accelerating—even as legal and regulatory pressure builds. Kate Scott-Dawkins is joined by Jeff Foster and Nidhi Shah to break down a packed earnings week and the theme they see everywhere right now: concentration and consolidation—of ad spend, audience attention, and especially AI investment. They unpack Meta’s surprisingly strong growth and a striking geographic disclosure (why Singapore suddenly shows up as a top billing market), Microsoft’s mixed ad signals across Search and LinkedIn (including rapid growth in paid video ads), and what Comcast/NBCU’s results say about the economics of streaming—where sports can lift subscribers and advertisers, but also widen losses. Plus: what luxury earnings reveal about an uneven recovery (China stabilizing, other markets shifting) and why jewelry looks more resilient than other categories. We explore: Meta earnings: strong growth, the “billing address vs. user geography” disconnect, and why Singapore stood out.AI capex arms race: Meta’s major 2026 investment plans vs. Microsoft’s narrative challenge linking AI to ad growth.Microsoft ads + LinkedIn: Search/news resilience, marketing solutions, and the surge in paid video ads.Comcast/NBCU: mostly flat ad trends, tough comps, and the coming change as Versant assets roll out of reporting.Peacock: subscriber lift, NBA-driven advertiser gains, and what bigger sports bets mean for profitability.Luxury: uneven normalization, China’s importance, broader growth pockets, and LVMH’s lower ad/promo spend.Chapters: 00:00 – Intro: Super Bowl, Olympics, and the week’s earnings theme 02:23 – Meta: growth stays strong 03:30 – Meta disclosure: why Singapore appears as a top billing market 06:22 – AI capex: Meta’s 2026 ramp and monetization paths (ads + subs) 07:17 – Market reaction: why Meta and Microsoft were read differently 10:30 – Meta headwinds: lawsuits and platform pressure vs. advertiser momentum 12:08 – Comcast/NBCU: Q4 ads, tough comps, and scale questions 14:01 – Peacock: subs, ad growth, NBA impact, and widening losses 15:58 – Microsoft: Search/news ads, LinkedIn momentum, and video growth 19:20 – Advertiser takeaways: efficiency, AI, and consolidation 21:17 – Luxury: uneven recovery, jewelry strength, and ad spend trends 24:13 – Tech preview: Apple/Samsung notes and what to watch next 26:45 – Closing

    Netflix’s $3B ads plan, TikTok’s US ownership shift, OpenAI tests ads

    Netflix says ads are booming—but are viewers actually watching more? Kate Scott-Dawkins and Jeff Foster dig into Netflix’s latest earnings: ~$3B in projected ad revenue for 2026, 325M paid memberships, and a surprisingly modest lift in hours watched. We unpack what that gap could mean for advertisers, why big IP (including Warner Bros. Discovery/WBD) suddenly looks even more valuable, and where Netflix may go next on content and sports.
