This week on Notorious B2B, Tim and Tas unpack the most chaotic headlines in B2B right now. Here’s what we get into: – Builder.ai raised $445M… then imploded. The signs were there. No one looked. – ZoomInfo backed out of a live data showdown (allegedly). It got awkward. – Duolingo posted a fake kidnapping skit and wiped their socials. We have… questions. – Another day, another layoff blamed on AI. But is that the whole story? ...

In this episode of Notorious B2B, Tim and Tas break down the mess behind 11X’s rise and fall. Fake customer logos, inflated ARR and the promise of (or lack of) AI SDRs

They also get into:

• How startups stretch the truth to land funding

• If influencers should promote tools and tech they don’t use

• Why buyers don’t believe comparison pages anymore

• A Reddit post where someone bought 100 leads on Fiverr

Welcome to another chaotic episode of Notorious B2B.

This week, we cover:

• Chris Walker’s new “inner peace” company and why his logo might not be as original as his mission

• A Deel subway ad that might be real… or might be the best AI prank we’ve seen

• Comment-gating is evolving: it’s now in your DMs

• The Fiverr CEO’s 12:58 AM (likely) email 

• And a full-on LinkedIn identity theft case, complete with a cloned website, job ...

This might be our spiciest episode yet. Tim and Tas are joined by Brendan Hufford to tear into the tactics and trends breaking (and embarrassing) B2B. What’s inside: • The truth behind 8,000-comment LinkedIn posts (and who’s really getting the asset) • Comment gating, fake pipeline claims, and why the numbers don’t add up • A deep dive into Exit Five’s invite-only event drama and ICP filtering • Why Pavilion’s CEO went full rant m...

B2B espionage, fake job postings, influencer chaos — yep, we’re covering it all this week on Notorious B2B. What’s inside: • Spy games escalate: The full story behind Deel vs Rippling (toilet phone and all) • Apollo’s CEO finally responds—and says absolutely nothing • Seamless still silent, and people are gaming the system for followers • The Reddit marketing “growth hack” that crossed the line • Fake job posts, shady Chrome exten...

• The “Inbox Karen” drama and the limits of provocative content
• The Exit Five’s application process to attend their event
• The truth about RB2B’s CRM data collection
• Why every website visitor tool is lying to you in a slightly different way
• And the shad...

We covered a lot of ground in this one - from spiritual awakenings to burner phones.

In this episode:

• Chris Walker goes full guru mode (and we kind of love it?)
• TACK shuts down and the Mark + Nick split has us speculating
• Apollo continues its quiet unraveling with key team exits
• Deel’s spy drama somehow esc...

This one had range.

We circled back on the rise and fall of “comment for the asset” LinkedIn posts (spoiler: people are still mad), and then covered everything from:

• The “weird LinkedIn” trend
• RB2B’s spyware accusation and why marketers are suddenly reading terms of service
• Air’s campaign backlash and why we’re still defending it

We had a docket. We couldn't finish it all. Who knew B2B had so much drama? 

Here's what we did cover: 

• Air’s wild anti-Dropbox ad featuring an actual adult film star (and why we kind of loved it)

• The difference between a teardown and a public roast (with a special guest appearance: Tas getting publicly roasted)

• What happens when LinkedIn shuts down your entire company page (Seamless.ai and Apollo, this one’s for you)

• T...
