Without advertising, there would be no capitalism, and, if you\\u2019re not constantly afraid of the DoJ knocking at your door, you\\u2019re probably doing it wrong. Those are two whacky theories about advertising and antitrust, at least. With Matt Ray on vacation, Brandon and Cot\\xe9 talk about The Attention Merchants and the recent Google EU antitrust ruling. We also discuss several other books, and how to talk to non-tech people at parties. Surprisingly, no container talk!
