Seventeen estuvo muy presente entre sus carats mexicanos y para hablar de ellos tuvimos a Oppa Kim en cabina. También les trajimos todo el chismecito cinéfilo de la semana como que habrá una secuela de una película de Tarantino, pero que no va a dirigir Tarantino o el anuncio de las cuatro películas de Los Beetles que se estrenarán el mismo día en 2028 o que Keanu Reeves regresará como John Wick en John Wick 5. Y obviamente les tenemos los estrenos que no se pueden perder en la pantalla grande.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Buying advertising is a lot like buying diamonds.Allow me to explain.Anyone who talks to a jeweler will be told that diamonds are graded according to the 4 C's: Color, Clarity, Carat weight, and Cut.Customers ask the jeweler, “Which of the 4 Cs is most important?”This seems like a perfectly reasonable question, but the truth is that the 4 C's cannot be compared to one another. There is no rubric, no metric, no algorithm that can equate them. The 4 C's are distinctly separate from one another. They are not interchangeable.Advertising is like that. Each of the characteristics of highly effective advertising are distinctly separate from one another. They are not interchangeable.Natural diamonds can be an infinite number of shades of yellow, grey, brown, green, blue, red, or a mixture thereof. Diamonds can also be colorless.The only thing more valuable than a colorless diamond is an extremely colorful one.Color is a measurement of rarity, not beauty.Clarity is another measurement of rarity, not beauty.“Flawless” clarity refers to a diamond which is free of inclusions under 10x magnification. But under 40x magnification every flawless diamond is swimming with inclusions that cannot be seen under 10x. So get this idea of “flawless” out of your head, okay? It is a myth.Seven clarity grades below flawless is another clarity known as SI2, which looks flawless to the naked eye. Not even a jeweler can tell the difference without 10x magnification. But there is a huge difference in price between flawless and SI2 because Clarity is a measurement of rarity, not beauty, remember?Carat weight is how the size of a diamond is measured. We'll come back to this in a minute.Cut does not refer to the shape of the diamond, but to the ability of the diamond to gather light, bounce it between the facets, and then shine it upward toward the eyes. When diamonds are cut perfectly, they do not leak light out of the bottom of the diamond. A perfectly cut diamond returns 100% of internalized light upward and outward in a wild spectacle of sparkles.You want sparkles, but you also want carat weight.When you cut a diamond crystal perfectly, you lose more than half of that diamond's Carat weight. But if you cheat the cut a little, the diamond won't sparkle as much but it will weigh more and sell for more money.If you cut the diamond with a thick girdle and a deep pavilion, the diamond will be dull because its internal mirrors will be misaligned, but it will be much heavier than if it were cut properly.A Carat is a unit of weight. There are 141.748 Carats in an ounce. This means that a small pouch of 1-Carat diamonds worth just $4,000 each will cost you $567,000 an ounce.Pure gold is less than $3,000 an ounce.Are you beginning to understand why diamond cutters are loath to grind away precious carat weight in the quest for maximum sparkle?Your logical mind tells you that it should be possible to create a diamond algorithm that says, “one colorgrade = 0.05 carats = 0.78 of a clarity grade = 2.13% excess weight above the projected carat weight for a perfectly cut diamond of this diameter.”Your logical mind tells you this because you continue to believe that dissimilar properties such as color, clarity, carat weight, and cut can be quantified, codified, and reconciled.In truth, they cannot.Buying advertising is even more complicated than buying diamonds.The rubric used to calculate the Gross Rating Points achieved in media schedules makes perfect sense until you realize it equates dissimilar properties and treats them as though they are...

47eme épisode de SCRATCH. Pour la première fois depuis le début de ce podcast, nous allons prendre notre DeLorean pour aller dans les années 90, époque où les mixtapes (les vraies) étaient confectionnées par les DJ et dont ils étaient les vedettes. Et qui de mieux que l'un des DJ français les plus connus de l'histoire pour parler d'une époque que peu connaisse (dont votre humble animateur) ? Nous allons donc parler du 3eme volet des « Hip-Hop Soul Party », sorti en 1996, par DJ Cut Killer. Animé par Golgoseize, et en invitée du jour : Sanaa (33 Carats Magazine)   Erratum : ce n'est pas Brother Ali pour le morceau avec Dee Nasty mais Big Brother Hakim, sorti en 1996.

Since REAL WORSHIP must be measured by a RADICAL WALK, put FEET to your FAITH!

Le Bleu de France. Voilà des années qu'il le cherche. Paul Miette, un as du cambriolage, se penche au-dessus du précieux trésor. Le souffle de son haleine fétide recouvre la pierre d'une légère buée. D'un bleu étincelant, elle l'hypnotise à l'instant même où il pose ses yeux sur elle. C'est l'effet qu'elle procure à quiconque à l'audace de l'approcher, et ce, depuis un peu plus d'un siècle. Celle qui fût arrachée au front d'une déesse, revendue à prix d'or au Roi-Soleil en personne, ne cesse depuis de crier vengeance. Ceux qui ont l'occasion d'effleurer du doigt sa magnifique composition ne le font jamais par hasard. C'est elle qui les choisit. N'allez surtout pas croire que Miette se trouve là par hasard ! Alors que la Révolution française bat son plein et que la guillotine sera bientôt actionnée à tour de bras, il vient de forcer les portes du Garde-Meuble royal, au cœur de Paris. Au nez et à la barbe de tous les soldats révolutionnaires qui se pressent sur la place de la Révolution toute proche. Lui et sa bande de complices ressemblent à l'équipage de Barbe-Noire après une bataille menée contre les soldats de sa Majesté le roi d'Angleterre. Les bottes pleines de boue, le bandit édenté reste planté au beau milieu de la caverne d'Ali Baba. Lentement, il ouvre le sac qu'il porte en bandoulière, se saisit délicatement du joyau, et vient le fourrer au fond. Il n'y pas un seul garde pour surveiller cet endroit qui contient tant de richesses. Le Bleu de France ne sera pas le seul à disparaître ce soir. Oh non, toutes les autres célèbres pierres vont suivre. Le Régent, le Sancy, le Miroir du Portugal, le Pitt… Toutes vont s'évaporer dans la froide nuit de fin d'été. Nous sommes le 11 septembre 1792, il pleut sur Paris. Il est 22h45 et c'est l'heure H de mon histoire. Merci pour votre écoute Retrouvez l'ensemble des épisodes de l'Heure H sur notre plateforme Auvio.be : https://auvio.rtbf.be/emission/22750 Et si vous avez apprécié ce podcast, n'hésitez pas à nous donner des étoiles ou des commentaires, cela nous aide à le faire connaître plus largement.

CBS Radio Mystery Theater was a multi-genre anthology. It aired over the CBS network almost daily from 1974 to 1982 and included 1,399 episodes. Episodes shared a time slot with the top-of-the-hour news summary. After subtracting the news and commercials, CBSRMT was left with a 45-minute format. The series was hosted, for the most part, by the late E.G. Marshall. The series creator and producer Himan Brown oversaw scripts and, though the daily format restricted the depth of sound effects, each show averaged 45 minutes. The writing was intelligent and the stories were thought-provoking. CBSRMT presented a bit of everything—science fiction, historical drama, ghost stories, horror—but the majority of episodes were murder mysteries, often with a supernatural bent. Because of the enormous volume of episodes, this archive could take up a LOT of time, to the detriment of other areas of this site. Therefore, I've decided to limit the archive to shows which best fit into the Plot Spot's chosen venue of sci-fi, horror, etc.

John and Coleman have a basic show for you! Sounds exciting right? It simply involves some random banter, a little music, and a bit of news! As they record in the woods at the park, there were kids running all around them with metal detectors. They discuss a bit about their encounters with homeless people, … Continue reading 171.

CLAP it up for a second serving of boy groups! It was PRETTY U-nanimous as we decided to take a pause and CHANGE UP our routine. As this pod is self produced, it was only natural for us to check out the self producing idol group known as SEVENTEEN. Releasing an EP entitled "Semicolon," their aim was to send a message of perseverance and support to all their CARATs. Is this release a HOME;RUN? Let's find out! Hallyu Can Eat The blind leading the blind With Allen Mark being able to access memories and Stephen being able to hear them, how was Chuck's token going to come into play? For his symbol was different from theirs. Staring intently he realized that it was in the shape of an eye. He put in over his right eye but saw nothing. Hopeful, he tried it with the other eye but no luck either. Thinking perhaps the token was meant to give sight rather than aid an eye that can already see; he made a wink, placed the token over his closed eyelid, and began to see.

This week is another guest episode with our most excellent friend Drewbie. She is talking with us about the Hope diamond, a great big fat blue diamond (the one that the Titanic diamond was based on) which carries a strange history.  Hundreds of years of stories surround it, from when it was acquired by a traveling trader, wielded by French royalty, tossed about English society and eventually re-homed to Washington D.C. No shortage of spooky stories followed it, and it was said to be cursed up and down. The story about that diamond you kinda think you might of heard of, here on Goose Chase.

Andrew and Josh also dive into the listener mailbag AND debut an original song recorded by their side project band, the Carats.

Episode 39 features a fascinating conversation with Anna Costa, one half of the Santa Barbara-based husband-and-wife team of Michael and Anna Costa Photography. Their extraordinary work is featured on the first page of “Carats & Cake,” as seen below. Anna speaks with great passion — and poetry — about the emotional and artistic gratification she feels after capturing exquisite moments that will become cherished memories on their wedding day.  Anna was quite poetic about it, in fact: she speaks of “photos as a daydream” she and Michael are able to catch,  and everything the bride and groom felt, in just the right light. Our conversation covers so much: the difference between L.A. and N.Y. weddings, the intrinsic beauty of Santa Barbara, which is known as “the American Riviera,” the wedding as a seedling to grow a new family, Henri Cartier-Bresson and his “decisive moment,” the critical importance of lighting, film vs. digital, “elopement photos,” the challenge of being a professional photographer in the era of the iPhone, as well as the wicked sense of humor behind heat lamps, the beauty and simplicity of the “First Look,” when a bride and groom see each other for the first time. It is in that fleeting slice of time that Anna particularly loves recording the groom’s beautiful expression. Join our spirited and warm conversation. Enjoy! –Doug

Carats! Its time we get to know our Leader. This episode is dedicated the one, the only, S.Coups. We go over the basics, fun facts and where to see this Strong Boy absolutely shine! And for you veteran carats, we celebrate some important wins our boys had these past two weeks.

Welcome to Episode One of the Screaming Room (aka Sixteen)! A show where we try to help new and old Carats alike piece their lives back together, but mostly just end up weeping instead. In this first session, we introduce our 13 sons to our listeners. We host a little crash course on Kpop culture and terminology. We hope you’re as excited as we are for this wild ride!

This week in the Yukon is Discovery Day, which celebrates(?) the Klondike Gold Rush - so we listen to two Christmas songs that have that gold fever! "Silver & Gold" by Burl Ives is a delightful classic, but a little unclear in its values -- while Kelly Clarkson's Santa-Baby-meets-surf-pop tune "4 Carats" knows exactly what it is about.

There's no doubting that Seventeen's "Don't Wanna Cry" channels the essence of Chainsmokers' "Closer," but does it resonate with Carats and kpop fans?

Brand differentiation is not something that comes naturally when you re in a crowded space. It requires a lot of thought and literal soul-searching to discover what makes your product or service different from your competition. Jess Levin Conroy and her business, Carats and Cakes are great examples of what that looks like when done right. Jess is a native of Laguna Beach, California and attended the University of Pennsylvania. After graduation, she began her career at Burch Creative Capital where she helped manage investments and brand development for a portfolio that includes C. Wonder and Tory Burch, LLC. After earning her MBA at NYU’s Stern School of Business Jess saw an opportunity in the wedding space to help empower the businesses at the top end of the market. That s when she founded Carats & Cake in 2013 from her office in New York City. Her journey to building and refining what made her brand special is the subject of the conversation on this episode of Converge. In the digital space, everyone can promote their stuff. That s the problem you ve got to overcome. All it takes to know that you ve got an uphill climb to success in your particular niche is to do a simple google search for companies within your area of expertise. You re going to find that the competition is pretty stiff and everyone is talking about what they do. In order to make a difference and in order to make a profit, you ve got to differentiate yourself from everyone else in a meaningful way. But what does that mean and how can you accomplish it? Jess Levin Conroy chats with Dane on this episode of Converge about how she s been able to reach a point of brand identity that has set her business apart. You re going to get some great insights from this conversation. Discovering what differentiates your brand is what will set you apart. But making that discovery is not as easy as you might think. As Jess Levin Conroy explains, every entrepreneur who starts a business doesn t really know what they are doing. They may have the business plan, they may clearly see the need they are aiming to meet, they may even know who their target market is, but they don t know what brand differentiation really means for them in the early stages. It s very much a discovery process, a trial and error path that they have to walk down. But if they will be committed to the process and patient with the time it takes, the payoff will be huge. You can hear how Jess advises both product based and service based business owners to go about figuring out their unique brand identity, on this episode. Soul-searching is at the heart of brand differentiation. And that takes time. Jess Levin Conroy admits that when she first started Carats and Cakes she didn t know what she was doing. She was in the wedding space because she loved weddings. She even saw the particular problems that professionals in the industry were experiencing and knew how she could help them. But what she didn t know was how her particular viewpoint and gifts enabled her to help in a way that could make her stand apart from all the other wedding professionals vying for business. But Jess knew that she had to take the time to figure that out because THAT was what would make her business stand out and attract the kind of clients she needed. The rest is a beautiful story of what happens when you differentiate your brand successfully. You owe it to yourself to take the time to listen to this story. What do you bring to the table that nobody else does? THAT is your magic. If there is one consistent thing about the brands that differentiate themselves in meaningful ways, it s this: they are authentic. What they do and more importantly, why they do it is true to who they are as the people behind the brand. That s a great place to start when you re trying to discover your own brand differentiation. Who are you? Why are YOU in the space you re in? What do you bring to the solutions you re providing that nobody else does? If you can answer those questions successfully and begin to communicate it effectively, you ve found your magic. And it s that magic that will fuel your success and growth.
