Update: 2025-07-25
Description
In Ep. 18 of Notorious B2B, Tas and Tim are back after a short break and so is the drama. From LinkedIn threats and AI-fueled phishing sites to a fake landing page targeting competitors, this episode might set off a few C&Ds.
What’s inside:
• Coldplay frontman accidentally exposes a B2B CEO’s affair on a jumbotron
• Lovable raises a $200M Series A at a $1.8B valuation — maybe the biggest ever
• Meta poaches an Apple engineer with a $200M package
• Windsurf employees get left behind after the CEO sells out
• Companies are now sending 2¢ via PayPal as a marketing hack (yes, really)
• The founder of TitanX threatens a marketer… and buys a fake domain to troll a competitor
