In this episode, I break down a YouTube comment that perfectly captures why I started Jimbo's Detailing in the first place. “Why haven't the big brands already come up with stuff like this?” That one question says it all. Most detailing brands just repackage the same old formulas with new labels—but I wanted to do something different. I'm not here to clutter your shelves with hype. I'm here to create purpose-built products that save you time, simplify your process, and actually work. I'll share why big brands can't innovate, why I refuse to settle for “good enough,” and how I'm building every product in the Jimbo's line to make your detailing life easier—not more complicated. If you've ever wished for a better product, I want to hear about it. Because chances are… I just might go build it. Thanks again for all the support and patience — it truly means a lot!

In this episode of What The Field?!, we sit down with Bastien Sachet, CEO of Earthworm, to dig into whether big businesses are actually walking the talk on regenerative agriculture—or just riding the sustainability wave. Earthworm is an impact-driven global non-profit working on the ground to create scalable solutions for nature and people to thrive. It started with Nestlé's no-deforestation pledge, proving that when corporations commit, real change can happen.A key takeaway: It's Not the Company, It's the PeopleBastien reminds us that businesses don't change—people inside them do. Often, corporate sustainability efforts start with one determined person pushing for better practices.While companies love to talk about soil health, only a few back it up with real action. Farmers need financial support, long-term security, and better tools to measure progress—things most corporate commitments still lack. Many companies only adopt sustainability policies after public pressure, legal risks, or supply chain disruptions (e.g., Nestlé's palm oil scandal with Greenpeace).Why Soil Health is the Next Big ThingBeyond carbon footprints, regenerative agriculture could revolutionise food quality. Healthier soils may lead to more nutrient-rich crops—giving businesses a powerful new reason to invest in soil regeneration.Ready to find out if the world's biggest brands are really getting their hands dirty? Tune in to the latest episode of What The Field?! and hear Bastien break it all down!Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/crowd_farming/ Blog: https://www.crowdfarming.com/blog/en/

You’d be hard pressed to find a Seinfeld fan who doesn’t know what “shrinkage” is. But in real-life shrinkage is a phenomenon that’s happening all around us and it means, companies are secretly selling us less product for the exact same price or even, at an increased price! In fact, one in three supermarket products have stealthily, shrunk over the past 4 years. And that means, we’re all getting much less product but actually paying more! Really, no really! Edgar Dworsky who is known as “Mr. Consumer” has been a consumer advocate for over 45 years, and he joins Jason and Peter to expose selling scams, and to explain and reveal how many companies rely on and use “shrinkflation" and "skimpflation". *** IN THIS EPISODE: Shrinkflation is legal, so consumer beware. Where have all the local consumer reporters gone? When salad dressings replace oil …for water! The hidden shrinkflation inside dollar stores. How “Party Size” and “New and Improved” trick customers. Toilet paper rolls have 90% less sheets than they had in the 1960’s. Shrinkflation isn’t isolated to your supermarket. What triggers someone to become a consumer advocate?

Today's episode was actually inspired by an event that occurred in the past week. I'm trying to update/upgrade my wardrobe and for real this time because I know I've been saying that for the ENTIRETY of this podcast, but we got our stuff figured out so we're doing it this time. Anyways, I went to Loft Outlet which is basically a store with last season's/last year's clothing items from the actual Loft store. I was looking around and looking at some items and then I stumbled upon the petite section. So I'm looking at this like okay….where is the tall section???Crickets. Nowhere to be found. And that's the issue with many brands. They will have the standard sizes of course but sometimes, they'll have a petite section in stores. And no tall section, which makes ZERO sense to me because it's like if you're gonna cater to one end of the height spectrum, why not cater to the other end as well? Anyways, the big question here is why don't big brands make clothing for tall women? In this episode, I do a deep dive into this question and so much more. Make sure to tune in!

In this episode of the Beginner Photography Podcast, I chat with Nate Crawford, a vibrant food photographer who turned his passion into a thriving career. Nate outlines the essence of connecting with brands, stressing the importance of a strong portfolio and personalized follow-ups. He also delves into the technicalities and emotional aspects of food photography, sharing invaluable tips on capturing images that resonate with warmth and authenticity. As you listen, I encourage you to apply Nate's lessons by experimenting with different settings on your camera, prioritizing the story behind each photo, and refining your approach to engaging with potential clients. Always remember, each shot is a step towards mastery.The Big Ideas:Embrace Persistent Selling: Consistently following up with potential clients can dramatically increase your success rate. Persistence pays off in this competitive field.Respect and Professionalism: Ensuring your interactions with brands are respectful and professional can make or break future opportunities. Your reputation precedes you.Harness the Power of Storytelling in Food Photography: Your images should tell a story, more than just showcasing a dish, they should evoke emotions and tell tales.Understand the Impact of Equipment Mastery: Learning the technical nuances of your camera elevates your ability to capture compelling images. Know your tools intimately.Photography Action PlanMaster Lighting Basics: Begin by observing the natural light during different times of the day and notice how it affects the mood and texture of your photos. Use a simple reflector (even a piece of white cardboard) to manipulate light and fill in shadows when shooting under harsh sunlight.Practice Food Photography: Set up a mini home studio with a basic backdrop (a large sheet or plain wall) and natural light from a nearby window. Style your food using simple props like utensils or raw ingredients to add authenticity and appeal to your shots.Develop a Portfolio: Start gathering your best work in a digital portfolio that can be easily shared or updated. Focus on including varied subjects and styles to show your versatility and ability to handle different photography challenges.Engage with Other Photographers: Join local or online photography groups to connect with peers. Participate in discussions, ask for feedback on your work, and attend group shoots or workshops to expand your network and skills.Embrace the Business Side: Educate yourself on basic business practices relevant to photography like drafting contracts, setting pricing strategies, and managing client relationships.
