Well, it's official: Facebook has officially changed its corporate name to Meta to reflect its growing focus on the metaverse. On this episode of Yeah, That’s Probably an Ad, we discuss the name change, our thoughts on Meta's newfound mission, and the future of virtual communities.

Immediately following the conversation is the first episode of Adweek's Metaverse Marketing podcast hosted by Cathy Hackl, which takes listeners on a journey into the future and prepares marketers to master the metaverse.
