Michael Erickson is the CEO of Ad Badger, easily the best podcast that is dedicated to Amazon PPC. I've listened to them test real case studies, doing things to prove them so to speak. When Amazon misleads or doesn't transparently share how things work, these guys know how to cut through the thick of it and figure it out.
