I wasn’t able to record the Affiliate Thing show this week, so my trusty co-host Lisa Picarille soldiered on with guest co-host Scott Jangro, super affiliate and president of MechMedia.

The covered the latest in the advertising tax saga with media depicting Amazon vs. the states, as well as winners of the LinkShare Golden Link Awards, a tender moment between Mr. Jangro and Joan Rivers, Affiliate Convention, and CJ going green.

Also, they covered the death of Michael Jackson, and how Scott apparently likes to dress up as the gloved one from time to time.

And a special tribute to Billy Mays at the end.
