Last week we talked about why most crypto events are a total waste of money (but not our upcoming fiesta in Mexico City!).

We also got into how DAOs solved the agency scaling problem that's been plaguing marketing for decades, and a chat with an NBA Slam Dunk Champion turned AI marketing overlord.
