"We're running out of people on the internet" -- Meta CMO gets brutally honest about the future

Meta has 3 billion users and they're still not satisfied. I sat down with Alex Schultz, CMO of Meta, to find out what their endgame actually looks like — and his answers were more candid than I expected. We get into why Americans still aren't using WhatsApp (and how Meta plans to change that), the real reason you have to demo the AI glasses in person, what Meta actually thinks about your kids on social media, and why he's more excited about AI in 2025 than anything else he's seen in years. Oh — and he admitted they're basically running out of humans on the internet. So now they want you using five of their products instead of one.

The CEO who inherited a $4.3 Billion Storm. Then Built an Empire

Richard Teng took over Binance after a $4.3 billion US government settlement, a departing founder, and a wave of public skepticism. Two years later, the platform has gone from 170 million to nearly 300 million users and it's just getting started. In this episode, Teng breaks down how he rebuilt trust from the inside out, why compliance is Binance's secret weapon, what Trump's crypto agenda means for the global financial order, and why the next billion users are closer than you think. This isn't a story about surviving a scandal. It's a masterclass in leading through chaos and coming out bigger on the other side.
