John Rosso, CEO of Triton Digital and President of iHeartMedia's Technology Solutions Group, joins Pesach Lattin to break down the $230 million acquisition, why broadcast radio just shipped an identity solution connected TV has spent six years failing to build, and which audio inventory tiers are mispriced going into 2026. This is the season eight finale of the ADOTAT Show. Season nine returns Monday, June 1, 2026. WHAT WE COVER The plumbing thesis and why infrastructure matters more than content. The Andomedia origin story and how classical music became the first server-side audio ad. What $230 million actually bought when iHeart acquired Triton in 2021.
