One Amazon to Rule Them All

In 2025's inaugural Ad Infinitum episode, Stew gathers an all-star panel to dissect Amazon's multi-million-dollar podcast advertising strategy. Joined by Amelia Coomber, CMO at Podscribe; Adam McNeil, SVP of Client Services at Adopter Media; Paul Riismandel, President of Signal Hill Insights; and Arielle Nissenblatt, founder of Earbuds and podcasting advocate, the group dives deep into a series of Amazon audio ads and doesn't pull any punches.From candid critiques to constructive insights, this episode gives several podcast professionals' POVs on how Amazon shows up in audio across its vast portfolio—including Audible, Whole Foods, Amazon Prime, and more; concluding with a challenge to the creative teams rooted in the resonant words: "With great power comes great responsibility."Support the showAd Infinitum is Presented by Oxford Road and Produced by Caitlyn Spring & Ezra Fox, MFA, written & hosted by Stew Redwine, and sound designed by John Mattaliano, with audio production by Zach Hahn.Hosted on Ausha.
