The Savannah Bananas have created a whole new sport. It's baseball, but it's not. It's fast-paced, exciting, and incredibly entertaining. For example, if you're batting, and you step out of the batter's box... it's a strike. If you bunt, you're out. If a fan catches a foul ball… you're also out. Games are capped at two hours with no exceptions. It's sacrilegious to traditional baseball fans everywhere. But it's hard to argue with their numbers: they have 3.2 million fans on a waiting list to see them and have been selling out 80,000-seat football stadiums over the past few months!Today, we sit down with Jesse Cole, founder of the Savannah Bananas and creator of Banana Ball. We unpack the whole story, staring with a failing college summer league team, an air mattress, and a $30 weekly grocery budget. But these days... it's safe to say that Jesse and his wife don't have to sleep on an air mattress anymore! And they have built the business in their own way, fully under their control, and uniquely “fans first”. They have a unique all-in ticketing model, where your game ticket gets you full access to food along with your seat. There are no ads or sponsorships. There are no ticket fees or middlemen. And in fact, Jesse and crew will even pay the sales tax on your ticket for you! Jesse is just totally obsessed with delighting fans, controlling the end-to-end experience, and thinking long term… even if it means leaving (a lot) of money on the table today.This may be our most fun ACQ2 (or Acquired!) episode ever. Enjoy!Sponsors:Plaid: https://plaid.com

In this newscast, I look at the recent locally acquired malaria cases reported in North Queensland, Australia.

Clare County Council is being urged to set about acquiring a disused piece of land in Ennis with a view to turning it into a playground or leisure area. Fianna Fáil Councillor Pat Daly has identified an overgrown vacant site located behind St Joseph's Hospital in the centre of the Crescent estate. Ennis Municipal District says the site in question isn't in Council ownership but it can "investigate the ownership issue further with a view to legally acquiring" it if there is sufficient interest. Councillor Daly says there's scope for an amenity that would be of great benefit to residents.

On this week's Modern Retail Podcast, senior reporters Melissa Daniels and Gabriela Barkho discuss the acquisition of sanitizer brand Touchland. The startup was bought by Church & Dwight, the personal care group that owns Nair and Arm & Hammer, in an $880 million deal. The staff also discusses the rise and fall of Target in the past couple of years, with the retailer marred by pullback in consumer spending and boycotts. In this episode, Daniels and Barkho also welcome Michelle Gabe (18:40), the director of marketing and partnerships at IFG, the parent company of King's Hawaiian, Grillo's Pickles, and Killer Brownie. Gabe joins the show to discuss what goes into brands' collaborations with entertainment franchises and other pop culture moments, especially in film and television. The trend was kicked into high gear during 2023's summer of “Barbie,” when brands of all sizes went pink. Last year, a similar wave was brought on by the “Wicked” movie. Even prestige TV series are getting in on product tie-ins through brand collaborations, as this past season of “White Lotus” showed. During her previous role at truffle sauce startup Truff, Gabe helped bring these types of partnerships to life, such as a collectibles collaboration with the “Super Mario Bros. Movie,” which garnered a waitlist of 20,000. Here is what she had to say about the best way to approach major IP tie-ins.

In this episode, Ricardo reflects on the end of Skype's cycle. Created in 2003 in Estonia, the application revolutionized online communication, allowing free voice calls and being essential for families, companies, and project managers. Acquired by eBay in 2005 and by Microsoft in 2011, Skype lost ground to more modern solutions such as Zoom, WhatsApp, and Teams. Ricardo highlights that the end of a project or product does not mean failure. Everything has a cycle: beginning, middle, and end. Recognizing when to end something responsibly is an essential skill in project management. Success lies in fulfilling its purpose, not in lasting forever. The end can also be a sign of success.
