このコンテンツについて
In this episode of Discussing Stupid, Virgil sits down with High Monkey’s Senior Developer, Chad Heinle, to break down one of the most debated choices in modern digital strategy: headless vs traditional CMS.
While flashy features and buzzwords like “omnichannel” dominate vendor pitches, the real decision comes down to your organization’s resources, structure, and long-term goals. Chad and Virgil dive into the practical realities of each approach, helping you cut through the hype and avoid the biggest mistakes teams make when choosing a CMS.
They also explore:
- Why your internal team structure matters more than the CMS features
- The rise (and reality) of content hubs and static site generators
- What “freedom” really means in a headless setup
- How traditional and headless CMSs are merging in unexpected ways
- Why reuse and omnichannel content sound good—but rarely happen
Whether you’re in IT, marketing, or somewhere in between, this episode will help you make smarter, more grounded tech decisions.
