Episode 21: Astronomer’s PR Stunt and a Legal AI Startup Fires the Wrong Person
Update: 2025-08-06
Description
In Episode 21 of Notorious B2B, Tim and Tas have a pretty light week in B2B...or did we?
First up: Astronomer’s viral Gwyneth Paltrow video. Is it a brilliant crisis PR pivot… or a tone-deaf distraction from a scandal? Then we dive into the loudest voices in B2B attribution and ask the big question: If your software actually solved the problem, wouldn’t every marketer be raving about it?
In this episode:
• HockeyStack’s cold call metrics — legit or LinkedIn theater?
• A jaw-dropping antisemitic comment at a legal AI startup that got the wrong person fired
• “Babe, wanna invest?” – the worst cold DM in LinkedIn history
• Astronomer’s viral ad campaign (and PR backlash)
• Parasocial content, and why it might be the brand strategy you’ve needed
• A founder who says wanting work-life balance is a red flag
