Podcasts about Alderton

When The NY Times named Alderton's GOOD MATERIAL one of the best 10 books of 2024, Kimberly knew it was time to dig in. Listen as she deepens your understanding of the male narrative voice, the excellent figurative language, the supposed "double ending" and Alderton's CRUCIAL SUBVERSION of the marriage plot. Tune in to Kimberly's argument for why this (anti)-rom-com (?!) BELONGS in the company of literary heavyweights like Miranda July's ALL FOURS, Percival Everett's JAMES and Álvaro Enrigue's YOU DREAMED OF EMPIRES. Finally, DO NOT MISS Kimberly's hottest of hot takes!

Following our Top 10 Books of 2024 episode, we are re-running our book club discussion about one of the novels on our year-end list: "Good Material."How to explain the British writer Dolly Alderton to an American audience? It might be best to let her work speak for itself — it certainly does! — but Alderton is such a cultural phenomenon in her native England that some context is probably helpful: “Like Nora Ephron, With a British Twist” is the way The New York Times Book Review put it when we reviewed her latest novel, “Good Material,” earlier this year.“Good Material” tells the story of a down-on-his-luck stand-up comic dealing with a broken heart, and it has won Alderton enthusiastic fans in America. In this episode, the Book Review's MJ Franklin discusses the book with his colleagues Emily Eakin and Leah Greenblatt.  Unlock full access to New York Times podcasts and explore everything from politics to pop culture.

Tapping into the Northern Hemisphere trends around business adaptability.

Learn powerful strategies for maintaining a positive mindset in the face of major life changes and challenges. In this powerful discussion, Matt O'Neill shares how he navigated massive losses in his real estate business to emerge stronger than before through resilience and a growth mindset. Author and speaker Rich Alderton also reveals simple yet impactful techniques for developing "adaptability intelligence" to thrive in times of change. Here are some power takeaways from today's conversation:  Matt faces biggest career challenge with loss of half company revenue Adaptability as a learnable intelligence Tips for managing fear and anxiety about uncertainty Using mindfulness to overcome negativity bias Inspiring story of replacing lost business volume in one week [08:09] Adaptability as a Learnable Intelligence Adaptability is a learnable skill. While people develop technical and soft skills, those skills are only useful in stable environments. Adaptability is the most important skill since it allows people to apply other skills during challenges and uncertainty. It unlocks one's full potential to perform their best regardless of adversities. [12:29] Why People Resist Change People resist change due to evolutionary instincts to avoid threats to security and survival. Humans feel fear and anxiety towards alterations as changes posed risks historically. However, this response today can be counterproductive and prevent embracing opportunities from change. [15:09] How Change Creates Opportunities to Make a Positive Difference Challenging times allow people to rise to the occasion and make an impact by embracing change. It provides opportunities to help oneself and others – and explore one's capabilities. Status quo, on the other hand, does not offer growth because it only reinforces past behaviors without learning or progressing. Change provides opportunities to make a difference by pushing us out of routines, and compelling creativity to address challenges in new ways that can help others or solve problems innovatively. [25:45] Resistance vs. Adaptability Resilience is about bouncing back to the previous state, while adaptability is about bouncing forward to a better state. Resilience focuses on recovering from difficulties, but adaptability enables growth by learning from challenges and finding new opportunities for improvement. An adaptable mindset empowers individuals to not only withstand disruptions but also to thrive in the face of change. Notable quotes: [08:42] If you can only be the best that you can be when the waters are calm, then you're not really going to be of very much use to yourself or society. [08:52] [13:47] We've got to change the way that we perceive change. [13:51] [15:33] The status quo is only ever going to tell you that what you did yesterday, you can do tomorrow, and you already know that. So you've learned nothing, you've achieved nothing. What's the point of life? [15:43] [25:45] Resilience is about the ability to bounce back. Adaptability is about the ability to bounce higher.

Rob speaks to fitness influencer Jay Alderton at an industry summit. They discuss how to build personal brands and email lists to future-proof your business against social media algorithm changes. Jay shares fitness industry insights while Rob provides tactical tips on becoming indispensable through consistency, creating accountability, and monetizing social media followers. Learn why you should focus on value creation, detach from rejection, and keep hustling no matter how comfortable life gets. With insightful questions from audience members, humorous banter, and loads of actionable business and mindset advice, you'll walk away from this episode motivated and bursting with ideas. KEY TAKEAWAYS Build your email list to own your audience - social media channels can delete you anytime, but your list is portable. Convert followers through consistent value and pitches. Create accountability to drive results - get uncomfortable! Sign up for a big charity boxing match or other public goal. Discomfort and accountability breed motivation. Monetize social media followers - give value first, then make the ask. Just 1 sale a day = over £100k revenue yearly. Don't worry about seeming “salesy." Detach from rejection - it's never personal. People judge you based on their own biases. Don't pin your self-worth on other's snap judgements. Transcend others' judgments, especially around money. Getting rich doesn't make you a bad person - money is a neutral tool. Use it for good. Keep hustling and creating value - getting too comfortable is dangerous. Shake things up and make yourself indispensable. BEST MOMENTS "If I can get 5 per cent of them on rob.team, that's a fuck ton of people."  "People will judge you anyway. So you might as well be fucking rich and be judged."  "Rejection is never personal, it's always about them."  "You have to be uncomfortable.

“I believe networking is an inclusive activity. So, the more networking you do, the more opportunities you're going to create for yourself. So never think of networking as I should only ever do one and give that everything. Because what you're doing is you're limiting the opportunities that you can bring into that that particular room of people, you want to create opportunities for people in the room, that's your role in the networking room. And everybody's thinking that way, everyone's creating opportunities for each other. So, the more networking we do, the more opportunities we can create for other people.”Matt Alderton's Top Five Tips For Growing Your Business Exponentially  1. Networking is a marketing activity 2.

In this weeks episode we are joined by Jay Alderton, one of the world's most renowned body transformation coaches, and the author of 'Mindset With Muscle' and 'Meltdown: How To Turn Your Hardship Into Happiness'. In less than four years Jay went from a redundant contract worker to one of the most influential voices in the fitness industry because he refused to follow the masses.  Jay has always been ahead of his time with a forward-thinking approach. In the episode, we talk frankly about his time in the military and the lessons he took from his time there, and his perspective on what it really means to go above and beyond in search of greatness.  KEY TAKEAWAYS The role of a body transformation coach is one that's always active. It doesn't end when the hour is up. You are always on call and always ready to help. Skills, knowledge and experience mainly come from making mistakes and suffering through failures. The reason that many aren't where they need to be, is that they have taken the shortcuts that pass these invaluable lessons by. Social media is what you make it. If you're trying to promote a sense of positivity and engagement, then it does no good to follow those who seek to fill the world with fear and negativity. You never make the important gains by taking the easy route. Push yourself to do the things you don't want to do each day - this will build a resilient mindset and give you the gains you're looking for. BEST MOMENTS 'A PT worries about the hour that you're with them. I worry about the other 23' 'Preserving the emotional energy is equally as important as the nutrition and exercise' 'People will always forget what you said, but they'll never forget the way you made them feel' 'If you want to be the best at something, you need to go above and beyond'  VALUABLE RESOURCES On A Mission - https://omny.fm/shows/on-a-mission   Jay Alderton Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/jayalderton/?hl=en Jay Alderton Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/JayAldertonOfficial/  Jay Alderton LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/mwlite/in/jay-alderton-1b14a932 Jay Alderton YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCOKOB4Eb1s-MSA9TRistZcQ ABOUT THE HOST Not so long ago, life was barely recognisable for Ellie McKay, raising three children under five, battling post-natal depression, facing redundancy and walking into the job centre to claim benefits with a double pram, no confidence, and wracked with insecurities. Fast forward to today, and life looks very different. Ellie committed to turning her life around for herself and her family. Following this commitment, she got to work and has now built multiple successful companies, as well as having created a multimillion-pound property portfolio from a standing start. Ellie is now on a mission to make a positive impact and add value to others through her podcast which has attracted phenomenal guests worldwide. The show is specifically to help those trying to reach their full potential through its inspirational and motivational content, as well as challenging conventional wisdom to discuss all the “hot topics” in a relentless pursuit of the truth.

Skogmo began his media career working as a casting intern for big budget films such as Batman Begins and then worked for the creator of Judge Judy in the mailroom, where he sorted through audience-submitted VHS tapes (the “old-school” way of sourcing content). Now the premiere, fast channel enterprise, Jukin Media wasn’t always an empire. It began as a start-up in Skogmo’s apartment, where his entrepreneurial spirit led him to license and monetize video clips. However, Skogmo made his fortune in obtaining the IP for video clips and selling them to broadcast channels. Jukin Media developed into an international company with offices in London, Los Angeles, New York, and New Delhi, becoming the ultimate generated content curator when it comes to video channels. Thus establishing Skogmo as one of the most successful and innovative content curators in tech history. Jukin Media owns and programs fast channels such as People are Awesome, Fail Army, Pet Collective, and Weather Spy. Jukin also owns the licensing and rights to over 100,000 videos clips, including the viral sensations “Chewbacca Mom,” “Pizza Rat,” and “Tori Burns Her Hair.” Skogmo shares his experience in producing more than two hundred hours of TV programming for networks such as MTV, Discovery, Fox, and TruTV and divulges his predictions for how media and technology will either clash or converge for network channels. ----------- This episode is presented by: Stubbs, Alderton & Markiles.

Christy Haubegger, the Executive Vice President, Communications, and Chief Enterprise Inclusion Officer of Warner Media, joins Richard to discuss the process of programming content for a global audience. One of the biggest challenges for a company like Warner Media is ensuring they are catering to an audience on the international scale, rather than solely American media. Christie’s goal is to ensure content reflects the interests and culture of their audience by bringing the level of rigor and and analytics to the idea of equity and inclusion. What she has found is that diverse casts in films have incremental audience opportunities. Christie is spearheading ways in which diversity and equity are reflected in movies, because movies shape our culture and how we view the world. As content streaming services diversify and evolve, the ways in which media networks measure success changes. Rather than basing performance off of metrics such as ratings, media companies use demographic such as specific regions and different age groups. They are also tasked with obtaining loyalty from their consumer base - something that is growing exponentially more difficult as streaming platforms emerge and transform. In this episode, Christy and Richard discuss: How Warner Media has moved from a wholesaler to a retailer with HBOMAX and upcoming CNN+ The wealth of IP that is part of Warner Media How Christy used and uses Data Science to prove that movies with a diverse cast do better How anyone can become a storyteller with just their phone What 3 movies caused Christy to move her entire life to LA to be in the film business And why Salma Hayek takes Christy's call and not Richard's ----------- This episode is presented by: Stubbs, Alderton & Markiles.

Brock Pierce shares his incredible life stories and lessons he’s learned, from being a former child-actor, becoming a crypto-billionaire, running in the 2020 U.S. Presidential election, and currently running in the 2022 Vermont Senate Race. Pierce grew up in the entertainment field, but after seeing how the future was being shaped by new technology and the internet, he pivoted to gaming, an industry that was booming in the early 2000s. Eventually, Pierce launched a business which created a market for the digital current and digital goods that existed in multiplayer games, generating almost a hundred million dollars a year in revenue. According to Pierce, these experiences shaped his basic training to support the development of the crypto and blockchain industries. In fact, Pierce was one of the first people to mine Bitcoin in 2012. He shares the transformation of cryptocurrency over the years, and the wins and losses that came with being an early mover of these new technologies. He posits that these technologies bring accountability back into a world that sorely needs it and serve as one of the biggest wealth transfers to people who previously did not have access to the monetary system. He breaks the down cryptocurrency, Bitcoin, Blockchains, and ICO tokens, noting the advantages these technologies will bring to our world. He explains the different approaches of Bitcoin and Ethereum, and tackles the questions of how cryptocurrencies should address scarcity and inflation. Next, he shares his predictions of the future of NFTs, and how the emergence of them has shaped a new creator economy in the digital space. Pierce also shares his reasoning for his “exploratory” run in the US Presidential election - he believes that legislators should understand how technology is advancing and shaping the present and future of our country. Although he did not expect to win, he was motivated by his concern for our collective future and his moral obligation to ensure our country is here for generations to come. Because he sees a dire need for a non-partisan, neutral member of the Senate, he is currently running in the Vermont Senate Race as an independent ----------- This episode is presented by: Stubbs, Alderton & Markiles.

Mellody started at Ariel Investments as a college intern while at Princeton, and is now Co-CEO. She discusses why she has spent 31 years at Ariel, and how her relationship with Ariel founder John Rogers shaped her college choice, her career, and her outlook on business. She also shares how her husband, George Lucas, has helped shape her understanding of entertainment and film, from spending time at Skywalker Ranch, becoming Yoda’s stepmom, and witnessing Lucas’ creative process. When Hobson was in her 30s, she joined the Starbucks Board. Then, she was approached by Howard Schultz, who told Steven Spielberg, Jeffrey Katzenberg and David Gethin that Hobson was a prime candidate to be on the board of Dreamworks. Hobson jumped on the chance, joining a board which she describes as “Moguls ‘R Us.” She discusses her experience on the board for 10+ years, beginning as a “pipsqueak” in the room to later becoming Chairman and acting as chief negotiator during the Comcast acquisition. According to Hobson, the key to success for modern media companies lies in the refusal to stay in the past. She cites examples of Comcast, Disney, and Netflix as companies who evolve with advancement of technology and changing the demand of consumers. Hobson also predicts that streaming services will soon be re-bundled and streamlined, as unbundling is more costly and poses more technological challenges to consumers than traditional cable. Later, Wolpert and Hobson delve into the issues of race, gender, and mental health in America today. Hobson is the only Black woman who is the chairwoman of a Fortune 500 Company, which signals that there is still much progress to be made. She addresses the shortcomings of the corporate world when it comes to diversity in both race and gender, and how diversity initiatives oftentimes mask and perpetuate underrepresentation ----------- This episode is presented by: Stubbs, Alderton & Markiles.

This week’s special guest is music visionary and executive Marc Geiger: co-founder of Lollapalooza, founder and CEO of Artist Direct, head of World Wide Music for William Morris for 20 years, and current CEO and Chairman of SaveLive. As someone who has been named one of the most important people in music and has worked closely with legends such as Trent Reznor and the Rolling Stones, Geiger is the go-to expert for the current state and future of the music industry. Geiger discusses his predictions for the comeback of the music industry. Regardless of when live events fully return, Geiger predicts the market will be healthy and robust. Although, a new era of the music industry is coming to fruition called the “Creator’s Era,” which is changing the ways in which artists monetize themselves and connect to their audiences. Geiger predicts NFTs will converge with the music industry by acting as a decentralized way for musicians to do commerce and connect to audiences. As for the future of NFTs, Geiger posits that they will operate as a digital boarding pass in your phone. It will take on many functions, which can range from being a certificate of authenticity, a shopping cart, or a way to transfer funds. Lately, a point of contention in the music industry is the amount of money artists make from streaming services. According to Geiger, the model for streaming rates isn’t necessarily wrong. In fact, it will improve as streaming platforms increase the amount they charge consumers. Because streaming services such as Spotify are in their teenage years, they will continue to grow and create new mechanisms for artists to make money. The current models we see in streaming are merely “base layers” that will continue to evolve. Stick around to hear Geiger’s experience signing the Rolling Stones as his first artist while at Artist Direct, and how he pioneered e-commerce with Mick Jagger. ----------- This episode is presented by: Stubbs, Alderton & Markiles.
