In this episode of #ThisOldMarketing, Joe and Robert discuss the very funny South Park episode all about sponsored content and native advertising.  Yahoo! experiments with actually blocking ad blockers, and Google Plus gets a makeover, but it is worth it to take a second look?  Rants and raves include Seth Godin and Alibaba buying a media company.  This week's TOM example: The Chicken Whisperer.
