Meta just crossed a line many advertisers never thought possible: it officially surpassed Google in ad revenue.

In this weeks episode we break down why marketers are shifting budgets away from traditional search and toward platforms built for discovery, storytelling, and AI-powered targeting. We discuss Meta’s evolving ad ecosystem, the future of digital advertising, and what the shift means for brands, creators, and businesses trying to win attention online.
