The secondary school teachers union is confident its members will take its advice and reject the Government's latest agreement offer. It almost doubles the pay increase included in their last offer, but the union says it's unevenly spread across the teaching workforce and sits below inflation. PPTA President Chris Abercrombie says teachers can vote any way they want, but the National Executive's recommending sending the offer back. "The conversations I have this year with teachers and continue to have is that this doesn't meet what they need - what they see happening every single day in schools."

Drawing from his experience at Tommy Hilfiger, and working with brands like Abercrombie & Fitch and Adidas, Ben explains why traditional tactics no longer cut it, and how legacy brands can pivot, if they're willing to evolve. He and Dave cover everything from Gen Z's distrust of institutions and the power of peer-driven content to finding the right creators and letting go of control.

James Abercrombie breaks down the modern Acronis stack and the future of MSP enablement at GTIA ChannelCon “You don't know what you don't know—just test it.” — James Abercrombie, Software Vendor Technology Evangelist, Acronis At GTIA ChannelCon 2025, James Abercrombie of Acronis joined Technology Reseller News Publisher Doug Green to set the record straight: Acronis is no longer just a backup company. It's a full-featured platform designed to help MSPs grow, secure, and streamline their businesses—without patching together solutions from multiple vendors. “Acronis today means one console, one agent, one protection plan,” Abercrombie explained. In addition to backup and disaster recovery, the platform now includes remote monitoring and management (RMM), professional services automation (PSA), security, scripting, and deep integrations—all in one native environment. This integrated approach, he argues, allows MSPs to improve technician efficiency, reduce overhead, and deliver seamless customer experiences. For new customer onboarding, Acronis even eliminates reboot requirements—allowing services to be deployed faster and revenue to be recognized sooner. Abercrombie, a 20-year channel veteran and GTIA mentor, also discussed his work to support the next generation of MSPs through the Acronis Academy and MSP Academy. These programs provide real-world training to help MSPs break past growth plateaus and optimize marketing, support, and operations. “It's not just about being an MSP—it's about becoming a better MSP,” he said. From solo sysadmins-turned-business-owners to enterprise providers seeking scalable security, Abercrombie's message was clear: if you haven't seen Acronis lately, it's time to take another look.

Zach Warring and Lisa Martin take on June Retail Sales. Zach cautions around just looking at one month's data to get a market picture. Lisa says the report shows “higher prices aren't hurting spending – yet.” She thinks demand is still pulled forward because of tariff fears and that consumers are still in good shape. Zach, who is watching stocks like Lululemon (LULU) and Abercrombie & Fitch (ANF), thinks that the market has priced in a harder 2H25 when tariff impacts hit. Because multiples have fallen, he thinks investing in his favorites is practically “risk free.”======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

It's Baton Rouge: Out to Lunch

Depending on your disposition for integrating technology into your work day, you believe AI is either a tool for increased efficiency and productivity. Or it presents challenges such as job displacement, the potential for bias and misinformation, and other ethical concerns. By the way, AI wrote that, which might foretell the end of my career as a writer and radio host. My two lunch guests today potentially worry about the future of their jobs too. Taylor Bennett is the founder & CEO of Mesh, an integrated advertising agency specializing in brand strategy, creative, web and digital marketing. For more than 20 years, Mesh has worked with local businesses such as Baton Rouge General and Visit Baton Rouge, as well as providing pro bono work for the Manship Theatre, Louisiana Wildlife and Fisheries Foundation, Ducks Unlimited and Jefferson United Methodist Church. In 2021, Mesh received the Best in Show Overall at the annual American Advertising Awards, also known as the Addy Awards. Max Zoghbi launched his career in cinematography with a daring adventure: together with his two best friends, Max traveled the entire 2,300 miles of the Mississippi River over 61 days in a kayak, documenting the journey through photos and video. After returning home, Max began picking up small video gigs—weddings, a commercial for a friend’s dad’s business—while working to break into the film and commercial industry. In 2011, Max founded Loupe Theory, providing direct production and agency work for Tostitos, Keller Williams, Cisco, NBA, Smoothie King, Lamar, Abercrombie & Fitch among others. Not since the introduction of the personal computer has technology influenced the workplace like AI seems poised to do. Whether you believe AI is an existential threat to the creative class or makes design work more efficient, it’s fair to say AI is here to stay. Max Zoghbi and Taylor Bennett are business people working in creative fields, both navigating a rapidly changing workplace. Yet, as with any business, flexibility, adaptation, and innovation have and will be the markers of their continued success. Out to Lunch is recorded live over lunch at Mansurs on the Boulevard.

This week on Horror Hour with the Hanna's, we're rewinding to 1997 to revisit I Know What You Did Last Summer, the glossy teen slasher that rode the post-Scream wave straight into pop culture history. With a stacked cast of '90s icons—Jennifer Love Hewitt, Sarah Michelle Gellar, Freddie Prinze Jr., and Ryan Phillippe—the film delivers coastal paranoia, hook-handed horror, and one of the most screamed lines in horror history: “What are you waiting for?!” We dig into how the movie adapted Lois Duncan's novel into something bloodier and more self-aware, and whether its stylish scares and twisty whodunit hold up today. Is the Fisherman killer iconic or forgettable? Did this movie define a generation of slashers—or just dress them up in Abercrombie? Tune in as we chase shadows through seaside towns, dissect teen guilt and trauma, and try to figure out… what they did last summer—and why we still care.   Follow Us on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠TikTok⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠: @horrorhourwiththehannas   Music by Aries Beats - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DPpnxLYrzVA⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

In this Season 10 finale of The Remarkable Retail Podcast, Steve interviews Vuori CEO & Founder Joe Kudla live on-stage during the closing keynote of the CommerceNext Growth Show in New York. Steve and Michael also are on-stage for a session gleaning the top retail trends of the year so far and set the stage for what's most important to focus on the balance of the year.Instead of covering the week's headlines, Michael and Steve zoom out to examine the trends that have defined the year thus far. Tariff turbulence remains the dominant storyline, with the July 9th extension deadline looming and limited trade progress made—raising uncertainty about supply chains, pricing, and margins. Retailers are already grappling with rising costs and making difficult decisions about whether to absorb the impact through vendor, consumer, or margin adjustments.They spotlight a troubling acceleration in store closures, forecasting 2025 as a record year for retail contraction, particularly in drugstore and department store categories. Meanwhile, growth continues to concentrate, with Amazon, Walmart, and Costco accounting for over half of all incremental retail gains. Smaller out-performers, such as Vuori and Abercrombie, stand out, but the middle is collapsing through a combination of unremarkable business designs and lackluster execution.The hosts also analyze the contrasting fortunes of Walmart's soaring apparel success versus Target's continued slump and reflect on emerging disruption from agentic AI—potentially reshaping how consumers search, shop, and connect with brands. With luxury contraction predicted for the first time in 15 years and labor dynamics in flux, retailers face a complex and volatile landscape.Then, it's over to an on-stage interview with Vuori CEO & Founder Joe Kudla, who joins Steve live for the closing keynote at the CommerceNext Growth Show in New York City for a candid and inspirational conversation about scaling a lifestyle brand with purpose. Joe shares how Vuori—rooted in the beachside town of Encinitas, California—pivoted from a near-collapse to a $5.5 billion valuation last year, thanks to an obsessive focus on product quality, fabric innovation, and deep community connection.Kudla walks listeners through Vuori's growth strategy: starting with DTC success, expanding to wholesale, and now operating over 80 physical stores—each serving as a local brand hub. He discusses how in-person retail drives stronger omni-channel customers and why authenticity in influencer partnerships is more important than ever in a crowded media landscape.As Vuori expands globally with new stores in London, Shanghai, and Seoul, Joe remains grounded in his role as the brand's chief product evangelist and men's fit model. His leadership lesson? Stay vulnerable, stay curious, and always lead with great products.
