Brand Safety Not a Concern for 97% of Shows #519

Todd Cochrane, Founder of Blubrry Podcasting, and Rob Greenlee, VP of Content and Partnerships at Libsyn, talk about all hubbub surrounding brand safety. Todd argues that brand safety is not a concern for 97% of the shows being created today. While Rob says it’s the only thing advertising groups are talking about. Todd wonders if it’s more about wanting to target listeners more accurately. It’s likely a little of both. Some companies are upending their business models to look at brand safety for advertisers in a small percentage of shows that will ever need it.
