The end will not come with a bang, they say, but with a TikTok post featuring a fake incel bragging about his prolific sex life. We’re paraphrasing slightly, but somehow, we don’t think the folks behind Do Not Expect Too Much From the End of the World will mind — this is a movie that gleefully blends highbrow references and dick jokes while bending reality to its breaking point. The latest satire from Romanian filmmaker Radu Jude, this provocation takes aim at a host of subjects: social media, the mainstream media,...

PodRoll unveiled Dynamic Feed Drops, an industry-first solution designed to overcome the limitations of traditional podcast feed drops. Enabled by dynamic insertion, this innovative technology allows podcasters to leverage the audience acquisition power of feed drops with efficiency, control, and targeting.
Dynamic Feed Drops are promotional episodes inserted across PodRoll’s ecosystem of more than 30 podcast networks. The episode is added as the second most recent episode in a feed and works across all major podcast listening platforms. Once the host podcast publishes a new episode, the recommended episode is automatically removed from the feed, requiring no additional work from either podcaster. This innovative approach facilitates simple, standardized, and effective cross-promotion and converts recurring listeners with a direct link to follow the podcast in Spotify and Apple Podcasts.
Unlike traditional feed drops, PodRoll's Dynamic Feed Drops leverage technology to simplify running feed drops at scale, helping every promotional campaign reach its goal.

A new partnership is bringing together a pair of consumer tech companies. TikTok has struck a deal with Redbox that will bring its short-form videos to 3,000 rental kiosks across the United States.
The machines participating in the partnership include about one-third of the 34,000 Redbox kiosks that are currently in operation. The featured TikToks will provide more context for the available rentals at each of those locations. The Hollywood Reporter cited the example of The Super Mario Bros. Movie: A prospective renter could check out the film’s TikTok presence before deciding to watch it for themselves.
Brands will also benefit from TikTok’s Redbox deal. Thanks to Crackle Connex, advertisers will be able to buy space next to the available TikTok videos. Crackle Connex is owned by Chicken Soup for the Soul Entertainment, which is also the parent company of Redbox.

New Delhi, April 20 (Ians) In shocking news to the global media industry, the Pulitzer Prize-winning news arm of BuzzFeed.com is being shut down, CEO Jonah Peretti announced on Thursday.
The media outlet said that it is reducing the workforce by approximately 15 per cent across business, content, tech and admin teams, and beginning the process of closing BuzzFeed News.
“Additionally, we are proposing headcount reductions in some international markets,” Peretti said in a memo to staff.

New Delhi, Oct 20 (Ians) The All India Federation (Aiff) announced on Thursday that Trevor Kettle has joined the federation as Chief Refereeing Officer (Cro) and will oversee all refereeing matters.
The implementation of the Elite Refereeing Development Plan (Erdp), developing and identifying refereeing talent from the grassroots, and professionalising those operating at the elite level will fall within Kettle’s remit. This will require close collaboration with many stakeholders across the country and he will work in conjunction with the newly-elected Aiff Referees Committee.

Advertisers across sectors have seen a positive return on their audio advertising investment placed on the web, mobile, and other online content. “With such high listen-through rates, it is no surprise that advertisers are returning to this medium,” said Oren Fadloun, Founder & CEO of Mars Media Group (Mmg).
Mars Media Group’s latest data shows significant return for app-owners and publishers who have attributed high engagement and improved listen-through rates to the shift in advertising budgets towards in-game audio. Working together with advertisers, publishers have reported a 25 increase in revenue, showing incredible performance of an over 85 listen-through rate (Ltr).
Audio advertising has been around for generations but has been flat over the last number of years as visual ads fill the online space. As American adults spend an average of 28.5 hours a week on their devices (7.5 hours/day for teens ages 15-18), visual advertisements are viewed by consumers as creating on-screen clutter.
