On the Friday sports edition of 'Will Cain Country,' Will is joined by “The Film Guy,” Brooks Austin to dive into the upcoming college football season, starting with the biggest name of them all: Arch Manning. Brooks says Arch has the poise, arm talent, and command of Steve Sarkisian's offense to be special, easily a better upgrade over Quinn Ewers.  They also run through the national QB landscape: why LaNorris Sellers might be the best quarterback in the country, how LSU's Garrett Nussmeier could break out, and why Oklahoma may be in trouble despite bringing in a big-name coordinator. Brooks offers his playoff picks in addition to his surprise teams to watch. Also, can James Franklin finally win a big one at Penn State? Don't bet on it. Will then talks with Cody Campbell, Texas Tech Chairman of the Board of Regents, member of the President's Council on Sports, Fitness, & Nutrition, and Co-Founder & Co-CEO of Double Eagle Energy Holdings, about how to fix college sports. Campbell warns that without serious reform, NIL and over-professionalization will kill Olympic and women's sports. But with the right leadership and cooperation, he's confident college athletics can be saved, and Texas Tech, he hints, is just getting started.

I had the pleasure of sitting down with James Reynolds, Co-CEO and Co-founder of Coco5, and what a conversation it was.  From the South Side of Chicago to Wall Street to the beverage aisle, James's journey is packed with powerful lessons on grit, reinvention, and staying true to your purpose. He opened up about a pivotal moment in college that transformed his life — when he walked away from basketball to pursue academics — and how that same clarity of purpose led him to fall in love with a product called Coco5. What started as a health-conscious investment turned into a mission-driven beverage brand that's redefining coconut water. James and his team, including NBA stars like Devin Booker and D'Angelo Russell, took a product they genuinely loved and scaled it into a clean hydration brand backed by real athletes — and more importantly, beloved by moms and kids. Here are some key takeaways from this episode: * James shares the moment he "stopped playing small" and took charge of his future — a life-altering decision that still fuels his discipline today.   * How a chance encounter with Coco5 led him from investment banking to CPG founder, driven by a passion for health and hydration.   * The surprising truth about their core customer: it's not just athletes — it's health-conscious moms buying for their kids.   * Why saying “no” to 2,000+ Walmart stores helped them win — and how going narrow and deep created long-term success.   * The secret behind their flavor-first strategy: “Kids don't care if it's good for them — it has to taste amazing.”   Join me, Ramon Vela, as I listen to this episode — it's a powerful story of reinvention, discipline, and building a brand with lasting impact. If you've ever wondered what it takes to succeed in CPG without experience, this is a must-listen.   For more on Coco5, visit: https://coco5.com/ If you enjoyed this episode, please leave The Story of a Brand Show a rating and review.  Plus, don't forget to follow us on Apple and Spotify.  Your support helps us bring you more content like this! * Today's Sponsors: Color More Lines: https://www.colormorelines.com/get-started Color More Lines is a team of ex-Amazonians and e-commerce operators who help brands grow faster on Amazon and Walmart.

 “This episode contains explicit language and may not be suitable for all audiences.” The journey from developer to co-CEO of a global payments provider isn't for the faint of heart. Monika Liikamaa knows this firsthand. As the co-founder of Enfuce, she's built a company that processes cards for 24 million cardholders worldwide, pioneering cloud-native solutions when the industry thought it impossible.Monika's story begins in northern Sweden, where Finnish parents raised a future engineer who would transform multiple industries. After cutting her teeth in telco during Finland's Nokia boom and subsequent crash, she found herself building a bank from scratch as a consultant. This experience sparked a revelation – she was a builder at heart, drawn to challenges others deemed too difficult. When offered the chance to create a financial institution capable of handling three countries, three currencies, two time zones and revolving credit, she couldn't resist.What makes Monika's leadership philosophy stand out is its refreshing directness. "Openness, honesty and trust," she explains, form the bedrock of effective leadership. She advocates for diversity not as a checkbox exercise but as a competitive advantage. With approximately 50% male and female employees representing over 20 nationalities, Enfuce harnesses diverse perspectives to create more effective payment solutions. This approach acknowledges a simple reality in payment design: women make the majority of household payment decisions, yet have historically been underrepresented in designing those very systems.Perhaps most revealing is Monika's response to crisis. When UNICEF needed relief cards for Ukrainian refugees, her team delivered in days what normally takes months. This experience crystallized what drives her – solving meaningful problems that make a tangible difference in people's lives. It's the same spirit behind the "Fortitude Pledge" she launched, challenging payment industry players to combat human trafficking and financial crime.For those looking to enter the payments industry, Monica offers practical wisdom: understand problems deeply, gain perspective from different sides of the table, and remember that no company has been built exactly like yours before.

When I think of a product worth buying and a brand worth supporting, Avocado Mattress is at the top of my list.   In this episode, I sat down with Vy Nguyen, Co-CEO of Avocado Mattress, to discuss what it truly takes to build a mission-driven, vertically integrated company in a category dominated by commodity players.  Vy's story is rooted in deep gratitude for his family's immigrant journey, and he brings that same heart and intention to everything he does—from sourcing organic materials to creating calm, customer-first retail spaces. We discussed the early days of Avocado, the team's commitment to vertical integration, and how their transparency and dedication to sustainability earned them B Corp certification and customer trust. What stood out most was Vy's belief that consumers want to buy from brands doing the hard work, and his team is doing just that. Key highlights from this episode:   * How Vy's family journey from Vietnam inspired his values and entrepreneurial mindset.   * Why Avocado chose to own their manufacturing, from latex factories to inner springs.   * What makes an organic mattress truly organic—and why it's hard to fake.   * The impact of COVID and tariffs on their business (and how they adapted).   * How Avocado brings its story to life through experience centers and retail partnerships.   Join me, Ramon Vela, as I listen to this thoughtful and inspiring episode as we explore how one brand is raising the bar in an industry that's long overdue for change. If you care about clean products, radical transparency, and companies that do things the right way, this is an episode you won't want to miss.

Find part 1 of this episode here.In April 2025, some organizations and health centers receiving Title X funding were given sudden notice by the current administration that critical funding would be withheld. This action by the federal government threatens roughly $65.8 million in Title X funds and implicates an estimated 846,000 patients. It has resulted in massive layoffs, stopped contracts, mental strain, and confusion for both employees and patients. As patients are not receiving the care they need due to a stop in funding, possible results could include rising rates of unintended pregnancies, rising rates of STIs, poorer maternal health outcomes, and later diagnoses of breast and cervical cancers.  We sit down with CEOs and executive directors of some of these impacted organizations, including: Stephanie McDowell, Executive Director of Bridgercare in MontanaAyana Bradshaw, President and CEO of AccessMatters in PennsylvaniaAmy Moy, Co-CEO with Essential Access Health in California and HawaiiSupport the showFollow Us on Social: Twitter: @rePROsFightBack Instagram: @reprosfbFacebook: rePROs Fight Back Bluesky: @reprosfightback.bsky.social Email us: jennie@reprosfightback.comRate and Review on Apple PodcastThanks for listening & keep fighting back!

Daniel Brady is the Co-CEO of Orita, a software company that improves email deliverability. As a neuroscientist turned data scientist, he has helped leading e-commerce brands organize their data sets. Daniel has also worked with CEOs, CTOs, and other leaders to build eCommerce companies. In this episode… Email marketing promises big returns, but many brands unknowingly sabotage their success. They blast generic campaigns, over-segment based on recency, and trigger inbox fatigue that leads to declining engagement, retention, and revenue. How can e-commerce brands rebuild trust, retain overlooked buyers, and turn emails from a cost center into a compounding asset? Neuroscientist turned machine learning strategist Daniel Brady has developed a behavior-driven approach to email marketing. By analyzing long-term customer behavior beyond recent clicks, brands can use intelligent segmentation to both reduce email volume and boost conversions. Daniel recommends recategorizing inactive subscribers, validating leads before sending campaigns, and treating email engagement as a dynamic two-way relationship. He also emphasizes the importance of rethinking post-signup flows, preventing deliverability spirals, and aligning marketing cadence with buyer behavior. Join William Harris in today's episode of the Up Arrow Podcast as he chats with Daniel Brady, Co-CEO of Orita, about turning email marketing into a scalable, intelligent revenue driver. He explains how neuroscience informs strategic audience segmentation, the impact of acquisition on retention, and how to adapt as you scale.

How can you find a mentor?   For this Women of Color Rise episode, I speak with Veronica Conforme, Co-Founder and Co-CEO of Greenhouse E3, a national nonprofit developing diverse pipelines of future education leaders. Veronica describes herself as a rebel—she turned down her father's advice to become an accountant and instead set out to change the world. Her career includes serving as COO of the NYC Department of Education, leading UP Education Network in Massachusetts, and serving as Chancellor of the Education Achievement Authority of Michigan.    Veronica credits mentorship as a key to her success—but not as luck. It came through clarity, purpose, and values-aligned work. “You have to be really clear about what you're trying to achieve,” she says. “I grew up in the South Bronx, saw inequity firsthand, and knew I wanted to disrupt systems and change outcomes for communities like mine.”   Because she led with purpose, mentors found her through the work. “I wasn't from the education sector, but when I helped principals rethink how to use their budgets to serve their communities, people noticed. They'd say, ‘Come work with us.' That's where mentorship happened—in the work, through shared values.”   Veronica offers this advice for finding a mentor: Get clear on your mission. What change do you want to make in the world? Be open. Stay open to help, new relationships, and new perspectives—even if they come from unexpected places. Do the work. Lead with your values, show what you're about, and opportunities will follow. Make it mutual.

Interview with writer, director, producer and Co-CEO of DC Studios, James Gunn regarding his new anticipated movie SUPERMAN.

When Steven first joined us in 2019, GYG was already making noise—130 stores, a cult-like customer base, and a founder who was across every detail of the business from avocado sourcing to store design. That episode became one of our most replayed for good reason: it was raw, passionate, and incredibly insightful.But so much has changed since then. GYG has nearlydoubled its footprint, gone public, entered the U.S., scaled a drive-thru model, launched a new app, and pushed network sales past the billion-dollar mark. The team's changed. The scale is bigger. But what about the founder?This episode is about going deep on that next chapter—what's changed, what hasn't, and what Steven's learned along the way. It's a candid look at what it takes to lead through hypergrowth without losing the heart of the brand. As always, please reach out if you have any feedback or comments, and for more insights on a whole range of topics the new TDM website is a great resource for investors and operators alike.

Hello and welcome to the Enchanted Ears Podcast, where we discuss anything and everything Disney. This week Disney announced the opening date for the new Test Track and gave us an update on the new Disney Starlight parade coming to the Magic Kingdom. Bob Iger is retiring in 2026, which means Disney needs a new CEO. Instead of picking someone from within the Company, what if they picked an outsider? Maybe even a pair of Disney loving podcast hosts? Well this week, we are officially throwing our hats in the ring for the title of Walt Disney CEO. And we come with a vision to revitalize the Company and set it up for years to come. From retooling the streaming strategy to battling AI to a splashy acquisition that every good CEO needs, we lay out a strong position (at least we think so

Send us a textIn this long-awaited episode of The Wall Street Skinny, we're breaking down Real Estate Private Equity with Lauren Hochfelder, Managing Director and Co-CEO of Morgan Stanley Real Estate Investing. If you've ever wondered what real estate investing looks like at the institutional level—beyond flipping houses or buying rental properties—this is your 101 primer. We cover everything from the structure of closed-end and open-ended funds to how real estate portfolios are modeled, valued, and financed. Lauren walks us through the different strategies institutional investors deploy—from building multifamily and senior housing developments to capitalizing on mega trends like e-commerce and onshoring—and explains why real estate is such a powerful combination of income, appreciation, and inflation protection.We also dive into the nuances that make this asset class unique. Real estate is both macro and hyper-local, driven by long-term demographic shifts and on-the-ground intel from developers and market specialists. Lauren explains how Morgan Stanley's team sources and sizes deals, the types of capital they deploy, how risk is priced, and why leverage—when used responsibly—is such a core feature of real estate investing. We also discuss how the career path differs from traditional private equity, what backgrounds are valued in the industry, and how this corner of the investing world offers a surprisingly diverse and dynamic mix of personalities and perspectives.For anyone curious about commercial real estate trends, we cover everything from the evolving role of the office post-COVID to how lease structures and regional supply chains affect asset valuations. Lauren also addresses the shift away from private equity firms buying up single-family homes, how purpose-built rental communities are gaining traction, and why she believes housing affordability is one of the defining issues of our time. Whether you're a student, young professional, or investor looking to understand a foundational but often overlooked part of the market, this is a conversation you won't want to miss.Before we get into it, we also touch on a few big finance headlines from the week: the Fed's decision to hold rates steady, Millennium's $14 billion valuation and what it means to buy into a pod shop, and the record-breaking $10 billion sale of a majority stake in the LA Lakers. From hedge fund structures to sports investing comps, we offer a quick download on the stories that caught our attention—and set the stage for deeper dives in future episodes.Our Investment Banking and Private Equity Foundations course is LIVEnow with our M&A course included!

I think that's worth a lot."  – Fede de la Balze   Topics Covered: 01:41 – What is Pacific Lake Partners and how search funds differ from traditional private equity 04:15 – The story that sparked the need for pricing bootcamps in the search fund world 06:33 – Why pricing isn't just about changing numbers - it's about market segmentation and value delivery 08:20 – Who owns pricing in small and mid-sized businesses 09:49 – How pricing power became a key criteria in Fede's business search process 13:22 – The reality of being a searcher - "like floating in midair" with binary outcomes 17:16 – Why the search fund industry is becoming oversaturated with email outreach 18:42 – The three types of knowledge every new CEO must master 21:02 – Dealing with legacy pricing decisions and constraints as a new business owner   Key Takeaways: "If you don't think there's a pricing opportunity, it's probably not a good business to buy. Not because you're going to depend on pricing to grow the business necessarily, but because if you don't think there's a pricing opportunity, there's probably not enough value differentiation." – Fede de la Balze "The CEO needs to think and understand that this is their calling. No one's going to figure this out other than them." – Fede de la Balze "Pricing is not a one-time event. It's how you think about how you're adding value and you should continually be thinking and tweaking your pricing model as you go to align with value." – Fede de la Balze   Resources and People Mentioned: Pacific Lake Partners: https://www.pacificlake.com/ Staff Schedule Care: https://www.staffschedulecare.com/ Impact Pricing Bootcamps: https://impactpricing.com/value-optimization-bootcamp/   Connect with Fede de la Balze: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/federico-de-la-balze-7387a42a/    Connect with Mark Stiving: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stiving/ Email: mark@impactpricing.com  

Monty Moran is the former Co-CEO of Chipotle. He joined them when they had 8 stores and left after they had over 2,500 and their valuation grew from a few million to $23 billion over his decade with the company. This isn't a podcast about business though. I had Monty on the show because he cites his main key to the success from having one-on-one conversations with Chipotle employees, connecting the company mission to theirs. He did this 20,000 times. It sounds altruistic, but look at Chipotle's ridiculous success. I'm looking at this personally. You may work at something that you feel is your direct mission. Your purpose. Or you may work at something that is primarily for the purpose of making money so you can exist. If it is the latter, can you attach it to what you really care about? This is what Monty is an expert at and it's the focus of his book, “Love Is Free, Guac Is Extra.” Monty and I have spent time together out here in Colorado and I just appreciate his differing perspectives on life, and the connections we can have.

What if “just buying the market” isn't the end of the story? In this episode, we are joined by Gerard O'Reilly, Co-CEO and Co-CIO of Dimensional Fund Advisors, for a deep dive into what really drives net investment returns. Gerard returns to the Rational Reminder podcast to explain the key principles that differentiate Dimensional's approach from traditional indexing—and why implementation, flexibility, and detail matter so much more than investors might think. We explore the concept of hidden costs in index investing, how index reconstitution and trading frictions erode returns, and the nuanced decisions that shape a market portfolio: defining the market, excluding low-returning stocks, optimizing tax efficiency, and more. Gerard breaks down how Dimensional's rules-based, evidence-backed process improves outcomes through smart exclusions (like IPOs and high asset-growth firms), precise trading, securities lending, and better handling of corporate actions. From the dangers of chasing low fees to the surprising benefits of thoughtful execution, this conversation is a masterclass in next-level investing.   Key Points From This Episode:   (0:01:07) Why Gerard was invited back: Dimensional's approach to hidden costs and net returns.
