Most of what B2B marketers call research wouldn’t clear the lowest bar in academia or industry R&D. Tanaaz Khan, a freelance content strategist who came to marketing from infection biology, makes the case that grabbing two reports and the most agreeable stat is quietly wrecking your credibility, right as AI makes fake data and made-up quotes easy to produce.She lays out what actually separates research from fact-checking, why the synthesis step matters more than the data you collect, and why being just 10% more rigorous than everyone else compounds into an obvious edge within a year.

In this episode, Jimmy is on to talk about his recent post, We are worth more than our .md files. Right? Right?!. Katie Parrott called Claude skills the new currency of thought leadership on LinkedIn, and Jimmy Daly is not sure he wants to spend his. The skills he's been building in Claude Code are doing real work for him at Miro, and they're also the closest thing he has to a portable record of what makes him good at his job. Jimmy Daly and Eric Doty work through whether sharing those .md files is generosity or giving away the car keys, and what the Lightroom preset market in photography can tell us about where this might land.

ChatGPT has about 90% of the LLM market, but LLMs are still only around 15% of total search. Gordon Meagher of uSERP has been doing SEO for 14 years, and his read on AI search is more grounded than the panic cycle on LinkedIn would have you believe. Alex sits down with Gordon to talk about how link building actually works in the LLM era, why a brand mention on a third-party citing source can matter more than the link itself, and what real user behavior looks like once people start shortlisting in ChatGPT and validating on Google.

An okay blog post now takes 30 seconds and one click. That has changed the argument content marketers have to make to leadership, from defending whether content should exist to defending how many hours it's worth spending to make something genuinely good.
