Podcasts about coca cola classic

Coca-Cola was approaching its 100th birthday on 23rd April, 1985, when it unveiled a new beverage at New York City's Lincoln Center: the ‘smoother, rounder, bolder' flavour of ‘New Coke'. The success of Diet Coke had fragmented the market, and, in response to Pepsi's aggressive marketing campaigns targeting younger consumers, Coke had sought to introduce a sweeter formula. But, instead of offering the new formula alongside the original, they made the catastrophic decision to discontinue their classic recipe, known as Merchandise 7X.  The company had conducted extensive taste tests involving 190,000 consumers, which indicated a preference for the new formula. However, these tests overlooked the deep emotional connection many had with the original Coke. Protest groups like the Society for the Preservation of the Real Thing and Old Cola Drinkers of America, founded by Gay Mullins, emerged, reflecting the public's dissatisfaction, and, just 79 days after the launch, on July 11th, 1985, Coca-Cola held a press conference to announce the return of the original formula - now branded as "Coca-Cola Classic."  In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly reveal those hardcore cola fans who stockpiled soda like it was gold; uncover the psychiatrist's opinion that Coke's most committed customers were behaving as if they'd experienced a bereavement; and consider the conspiracy theories that suggest Coca-Cola engineered the whole debacle deliberately… Further Reading:  • ‘Coke, The Taste That Distresses' (The Washington Post, 1985): https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/lifestyle/1985/06/07/coke-the-taste-that-distresses/1f0758dd-98a2-4a9d-ae1c-c188c2228354/ • ‘New Coke Didn't Fail.

Am 10. Juli 1985 kam in den USA «Coca-Cola Classic» in den Verkauf. Es war nichts anderes, als die ursprüngliche Formel des beliebten Erfrischungsgetränks. Vorausgegangen war einer der grössten Marketing-Flops in der Geschichte des Unternehmens. 

The most sought-after article for The Year Of The Opposite has been "How did you lose all the weight!?" So, let's dive right in, shall we? In just one year of living oppositely, I shed a whopping 37lbs, but that's only part of the story. Since hitting my peak weight in 2018, I've lost a grand total of 62lbs. Now, I can almost hear your thoughts: "Losing 40lbs in one year isn't healthy! He must've used weight loss drugs or surgery, lost a ton of muscle mass, and it's probably unsustainable." Trust me, I'd be thinking the exact same thing.Allow me to address those concerns. My weight loss journey has been focused on achieving the healthiest possible results. By most standards, I'm currently in the best shape of my life. At 42, I can run faster and farther than I could at 16. (Although, let's be honest, that doesn't say much about my teenage athleticism. But I digress.)The driving force behind my health transformation was the desire to break free from the medications I'd been taking for various lifestyle-induced ailments. Don't get me wrong, I have immense respect for the wonders of modern medicine. However, after relying on daily medications for seven long years, I was increasingly uneasy about the prospect of continuing that regimen for the rest of my life. Even the safest medications come with side effects. Everything does. So, I was determined to escape the unsettling dependence on pills for my well-being.Given my goal to ditch prescription medications, it should be clear (but I'll say it explicitly, just in case): I did not resort to weight loss drugs or surgeries. My approach was as natural as possible, as my primary objectives are longevity and healthspan. I want to live a long, healthy life and, in the end, go out swiftly. That's my motto: "Live long and die quickly."I want to clarify that I'm not against weight loss drugs. In fact, quite the contrary. I've actually invested in Novo Nordisk, the company behind Semaglutide, Wegovy, and Ozempic. I'll admit, this investment has yielded a significant profit for me. Semaglutide is a GLP-1 receptor agonist, which means it mimics the action of human incretin glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1). This increases insulin secretion, enhances blood sugar disposal, and improves glycemic control. So, what does Semaglutide do? It suppresses hunger and promotes a feeling of fullness. It also helps your body regulate blood sugar levels more effectively. By reducing hunger, you consume less food. The outcomes have been remarkable, with people losing 10-20% of their body weight in just 12-20 weeks. Some experts are already saying that these revolutionary weight loss drugs are experiencing the fastest growth since Viagra. Rumor has it that many individuals in the entertainment industry and Los Angeles are using it, leading to a shortage of the drug.But let me reel myself back from that Semaglutide endorsement and clear up any confusion. No, I didn't use any weight loss drugs to shed the pounds. That doesn't mean I'm against them; it's just that they didn't align with my personal objectives. My goal is to live as long as possible, preferably with minimal reliance on medication.What about muscle mass? It appears that I may have lost some, although I don't have any entirely accurate measurements. My Renpho scale indicates that I've lost 5lbs of muscle mass over the past year and 15lbs since 2018. This is disappointing, but it could be a measurement issue. Despite these numbers, I've been strength training and am now stronger than when I began. I've consistently increased the weight on exercises like overhead presses, seated leg presses, bicep curls, lateral pulldowns, and lateral raises. My scale may say I've lost muscle, but my strength has undeniably improved. It might be a case of measurement error.Is this sustainable? That's undoubtedly the most critical question, and I honestly don't know. I wish I could predict the future. I do experience significant slip-ups; for instance, I gained 10lbs in just one week around Thanksgiving. However, I believe I've cultivated lifelong habits, not just a temporary weight loss strategy. This ties back to my previous post, which offers actionable tips for building lasting habits.Why am I sharing all this? I believe that if you're considering embarking on a weight loss journey, it's essential to start with a solid foundation. Establish your goals from the outset, ensure your chosen strategy is sustainable and aligns with your objectives, and consistently track your progress. Remember, my plan doesn't have to be your plan; I'm simply sharing what worked for me.How did I achieve my weight loss?* I ate less food.* I ate less often.* I opted for less processed food.* I increased my protein intake and reduced carbs.* I stopped drinking calories, cutting out soda and alcohol.* I began exercising daily.* I monitored my weight, blood pressure, VO2 Max, and heart rate on a daily or weekly basis.Nothing extraordinary here, but let me share the strategies I used to create new habits that made this weight loss journey work for me.I Ate Less Food:A significant portion of my eating habits was driven by routine. For example, I would automatically supersize my fast food orders or always have a Coca-Cola Classic with dinner. If food was on my plate, I felt compelled to finish it. To eat less, I needed to break these habits.I decided not to drink my calories, which meant giving up Coca-Cola with dinner. I also made a conscious effort to reduce portion sizes and not force myself to finish every meal. Additionally, I started paying attention to calorie counts, realizing that even "healthy" options like salads could be deceptively high in calories. Sometimes the salad that I thought was healthy actually had more calories than the cookie I was avoiding (not that the cookie is healthy; it's just shocking to me how many calories can be packed into a salad).I aimed for a daily intake of 2,000 calories, but I wasn't obsessive about it. I didn't track every single food that I ate in My Fitness Pal, as I had done before because I found it tedious and annoying. Instead, I used calories as a way to compare food items. For instance, if I was at a restaurant and the salad had 1,200 calories while the grilled chicken meal had 400 calories, I would opt for the chicken. The value here wasn't in making a detailed log calculating how many calories I ate all day; rather, it was learning what low-calorie meals looked like. Just because it looks healthy or sounds healthy doesn't mean it is.The most significant change came from applying the principles in the book "Atomic Habits." I used "The Four Laws of Behavior Change" to create new habits: make it obvious, make it attractive, make it easy, and make it satisfying. Instead of surrounding myself with Chex Mix, Coca-Cola, and Miller Lite, I opted for mixed nuts, decaffeinated tea, and San Pellegrino.To resist unhealthy temptations, I applied the "Inversion of the Four Laws": make it invisible, make it unattractive, make it difficult, and make it unsatisfying. We eliminated all the sweets and junk food we used to have around the house.This was, by far, the most significant and easiest change. It's quite simple: if you want to eat less unhealthy food, don't keep it around. If you want to eat better, make nutritious options readily available and enjoyable.I Ate Less OftenFor the most part I switched from 3 meals a day to 2 or 1 meal.  There is a saying that I love. “Abs aren't made in the gym, they are made in the kitchen.” The saying is based on the idea that it's easier to gain calories than to burn them through exercise. For instance, eating a couple of pieces of pizza can take in the same amount of calories as an hour of swimming. It's much more practical to reduce your daily caloric intake by 400-600 calories than to exercise for an hour to create the same calorie deficit. Now with that being said, I still don't have abs. So what do I know. One of the biggest mistakes I would make when I was trying to lose weight in the past was that I would immediately adopt a rigorous workout routine. This would cause me to be hungrier and I would in turn eat more food.  At best I would maintain the same weight, but in many cases, I would actually gain weight! This would make me quite depressed as I thought I was doing everything right but I was actually performing the most common mistake in weight loss.  Remember: Abs are made in the kitchen. That means if you're trying to fix your weight, it's imperative that you focus on how much you eat, how often you eat, and what you eat. As a part of eating less often, I followed Dr. Andrew Huberman's tips. (* Don't eat anything within 1 hour of waking. * Don't eat anything or drink any calories within 2-3 hours of sleep. * Have an 8-hour feeding window. Your ideal time for meals should be between 11am and 7pm if you follow a normal sleeping schedule. This will do a bunch of positive things. You'll get caloric restriction without having to count calories, you'll get better sleep, and some studies have shown that just this action will have a small reduction in blood pressure. Fasting, or eating less often, has benefits well beyond weight loss.  * Fasting can improve your memory https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8470960/ * Fasting can help with metabolic disorders like type 2 diabetes https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6521152/* Fasting can help you lose weight https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7021351/ * Fasting helps your heart and can lower your blood pressure and lower your resting heart rate https://academic.oup.com/ehjopen/article/1/2/oeab026/6363797?login=falseI eat less processed foods and more whole foods. Nothing revolutionary here. We've all been told it a million times but it certainly works. I eat less processed foods and more fruits, vegetables, and a lot of meat. I define processed foods as things that have been altered with preservatives, sweeteners, flavors or colors. Whole foods are just foods that don't have any of that stuff. Research has consistently shown that consuming whole foods is better than consuming processed foods. For example, a study published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition found that people who ate a diet high in whole, unprocessed foods had a lower risk of developing type 2 diabetes than those who ate a diet high in processed foods. Another study published in the Journal of Nutrition found that people who ate more whole foods had a lower risk of developing heart disease than those who ate more processed foods.The studies: * American Journal of Clinical Nutrition study on whole foods and type 2 diabetes: https://academic.oup.com/ajcn/article/87/4/1081/4633373 * Journal of Nutrition study on whole foods and heart disease: https://academic.oup.com/jn/article/143/9/1445/4571691* Journal of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics study on whole foods and nutrient intake: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S2212267213005145I increased my protein intake and reduced carbs.This is a controversial subject as everything in weight loss is.  There are definitely studies that show people that eat a vegetarian diet live longer and lose weight.  But for me personally, a diet high in protein and reduced carbohydrates seems to work best.  For me, eating a lot of protein can be really helpful for weight loss. I find that protein makes me feel full and less hungry, so I end up eating less overall. Plus, protein requires a lot of energy for my body to digest, which means that I burn more calories just by eating it. Eating enough protein also helps keep my muscles healthy and strong, which is really important for my overall health. Some studies even suggest that eating more protein might help me burn more calories throughout the day. Eating a diet high in protein really worked for me. Here are the studies: * A study published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition found that a high protein diet can help reduce body weight and fat mass when compared to a lower protein diet. The study also found that high protein diets can help preserve lean body mass during weight loss. https://academic.oup.com/ajcn/article/87/5/1558S/4650426* Another study published in the Journal of Nutrition found that a high protein diet can lead to greater weight loss and fat loss compared to a lower protein diet. The study also found that a high protein diet can help reduce hunger and increase feelings of fullness. https://academic.oup.com/jn/article/133/2/411S/4817941* A meta-analysis published in the International Journal of Obesity found that a high protein diet can result in greater weight loss and fat loss compared to a low protein diet. The study also found that a high protein diet can help improve several markers of cardiovascular health, including blood pressure and cholesterol levels. https://www.nature.com/articles/0803692I stopped drinking calories, cutting out soda and alcohol.I used to drink a ton of calories without even realizing it. I would drink one or two Coca-Colas with lunch and dinner, and I would also drink quite a bit of delicious beer. I didn't realize that there were so many calories in these drinks. But after learning about the dangers of drinking calories, I decided to make a change. Drinking sugary drinks like soda or beer can cause weight gain and increase the risk of developing health problems like diabetes and heart disease. Plus, they don't fill you up like food does, so you can consume a lot of calories without even feeling full. I decided to switch to water, unsweetened tea, decaffeinated hot tea, San Pellegrino (Bubble water as Lane calls it), or coffee sometimes. This easily cut 300 to 400 calories out of my day with one change. I also learned a trick. Every time I felt myself getting “hungry” I would consume a lot of water, tea, or bubble water.  It turned out that in 95% of the cases, drinking a lot of water would cure my hunger.  I'm not sure why this worked so well but it did.  And to cure my night cravings, I started drinking hot tea before bed.  This gave me a little bit of flavor without any calories. This was a huge win for me.  It stopped me from binge eating before bed but still gave me a little mental satisfaction of getting some flavor and the routine of consuming something. I highly recommend trying this. The compounding effects of drinking alcohol and weight gain. The compounding effects of drinking alcohol and weight gain can be significant. I learned this the hard way when I noticed that indulging in occasional alcoholic drinks had a compounding effect on my weight. Not only was I consuming empty calories in the drink itself, but it also had two other major impacts on my weight. Firstly, it interfered with my sleep, which in turn can lead to weight gain. However, the second factor was even more significant. After drinking, I would consume a large amount of unhealthy food. Sometimes it would be an entire large pizza, or every single bag of chips in the house. It was a gluttonous habit that impressed even me. However, I soon realized that by cutting down on drinking, I was able to control my food intake much better.I started exercising every day. While I'm not an expert on the topic, I found a routine that worked for me. I realized the main reason my previous attempts at working out had failed was due to a lack of consistency. I always found an excuse not to exercise, whether it was not having enough time, not having the right equipment, or not being in the mood. So, my first goal was to eliminate all my excuses.I decided to do a 7-minute HIIT workout on my Apple Watch. It's quick, so I never had the excuse of not having enough time. The only thing I needed was my watch and my own body weight, so I could do it anywhere at any time. It's also not a very strenuous workout, so I don't break out in a sweat and need to change my clothes. I've even done this workout in dress clothes! It doesn't require me to go to the gym, so I never have that excuse. I've done this workout in hotels, basements, outside, in living rooms, and at the gym. It's incredibly versatile.This may not be the best workout, but that wasn't my goal. I was focused on building the habit of exercising every day. Every. Single. Day. I didn't miss a single day in 365 days. I did it at 5 am and 11 pm. I did it in Lansing and in Vegas.I never pushed myself too hard during the workout. If I was tired and couldn't do push-ups, I would do them on my knees. If I was feeling lazy, I wouldn't do full lunges. But I always did the workout. Most days, I pushed myself, but even on the tough days, I never let my lack of motivation hold me back from going through the motions. I always did the workout.I monitored my weight, blood pressure, VO2 Max, and heart rate on a daily or weekly basis.The old saying goes you can't fix what you don't measure.  Or something like that.  Everyone knows I'm a data nerd. This process was no different. Here are the tools I used: * Apple Watch Ultra: The Apple Watch Ultra is a wearable device that tracks various health metrics, including heart rate, blood oxygen levels, sleep patterns, and physical activity. It can also monitor and analyze data related to different types of workouts, such as running, cycling, and swimming.* Renpho Digital Scale: The Renpho Digital Scale is a smart scale that measures various health metrics, including weight, BMI, body fat percentage, muscle mass, and more. It syncs with the Renpho app, which provides a detailed analysis of the data and tracks progress over time.* iHealth Blood Pressure Monitor: The iHealth Blood Pressure Monitor is a device that measures blood pressure and heart rate. It connects to a smartphone app, which stores the data and provides personalized recommendations to help manage hypertension.* Apple Health app: The Apple Health app is a central hub that integrates data from various health tracking devices and apps, including the Apple Watch, Renpho Digital Scale, and iHealth Blood Pressure Monitor. It tracks a wide range of health metrics, such as heart rate, sleep patterns, nutrition, and more, and provides personalized insights and recommendations based on the data.I also tracked my habits on Way Of Life the app. And I started journaling about my day every night.  These two things were very important for helping keep track of my progress.  I plan to do an entire article on the importance of journaling. So that's it.  Nothing world changing here. But it worked. I transformed my life by adopting this straightforward method in March 2022, and it genuinely made a significant impact on my health. Within six months, my ASCVD risk estimator (risk of having a heart attack in the next 10 years) improved from 16% to 2%, and my doctors officially cleared me of all medical conditions, including high blood pressure, high cholesterol, high triglycerides, and impaired fasting glucose. My cardiac fitness VO2 Max also improved, showing how these changes may have saved my life.Thank you so much for being a subscriber.

Mike, Kenny, and special guest, Stephan Stansfield, conduct in-the-moment research to decide what the GOAT coke actually is. They conduct a taste test of Coca-Cola Classic, Diet Coke, Cherry Coke, Vanilla Coke, Cherry-Vanilla Coke, and, of course, Pepsi Mango.

Remember when “New Coke” was introduced in 1985? Consumers were so outraged that within 77 days Coca-Cola Classic was reintroduced. Today, there are a lot of new ways to invest money compared to previous generations. Mike answers a few questions many are wondering: Should investors stick with what they know? Or investigate some of the newer options available like bitcoin, meme stocks and NFT's? Plus, he shares his outlook for wall street for the rest of 2021 and explains why preparing for the unknown should start now. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In April of 1985, the world was introduced to New Coke. A corporate faux pas that would go down in history as one of the greatest marketing flops of all time; a what-not-to-do case study taught in business schools across the country. As the tale is told, the Coca-Cola leadership team was nervous about losing market share to competitors. This anxiety was amplified by the PepsiCo marketing campaign – The Pepsi Challenge, a blind taste test that concluded consumers preferred Pepsi to Coke. The powers at be at Coca-Cola wanted to innovate, and they wanted to give the customer what Coca-Cola thought they wanted – New Coke, a sweeter flavor, a more Pepsi-like beverage. It was no more than three months later that the company, Coca-Cola, reintroduced their classic flavor re-branding it with the “Coca-Cola Classic” moniker. This soft drink story is the perfect example of the collateral damage caused by misleading benchmarks. Today we will talk about how benchmarking in investing can sometimes lead to similar woes.

This is an Everything 80s Rewind, and we're looking back at my episode all about the history of the infamous New Coke. New Coke was released on the 100th anniversary of Coca-Cola—but it almost ended up destroying them. This is a look back on why they released New Coke, the public backlash, and the return—and newfound appreciation—of Coca-Cola Classic. The big question is: why did they ever attempt something so risky—but was this part of their plan all along...? Show Notes: New Coke Support the Show: Patreon.com/80s

I remember it well. It was April 1985. Coca-Cola, which had been sagging in soft drink sales, unveiled a product everyone was anxious to try: New Coke. New Coke was new, but it was not good. New Coke bombed, leaving Coca-Cola scrambling to crank out the original cola formula, which it branded as Coca-Cola Classic....

At the mouth of Mobile Bay in Alabama sat three forts, Fort Gaines, Fort Powell and Fort Morgan. Fort Powell no longer exists, but both Fort Morgan and Fort Gaines are still here. All of the forts saw action in the Battle of Mobile Bay during the Civil War. Fort Morgan and Fort Gaines would also see action in the Spanish American War and both World Wars. Many people died at these forts and that has lead to stories of apparitions and other paranormal activity. Fort Morgan is considered one of the most haunted locations in Alabama. Today, the forts are historic sites that can be toured and there is even a creepy escape room for adventurous souls. Join us as we explore the history and hauntings of the forts of Mobile Bay!

New Coke was born.  But long-time Coca-Cola drinkers didn’t appreciate the change to a more Pepsi-like taste.  They wanted the classic taste back.  Seventy-nine days later, Coke announced the original formula would return under the name Coca-Cola Classic and would exist alongside the new Coke (which would carry the Coke name).  Eventually, demand (?) for New Coke waned enough to stop making it altogether — until now.   With the highly anticipated release of Stranger Things 3 coming to Netflix on July 4th, The Coca-Cola Company decided to rerelease New Coke for a limited run to coincide with the new season’s setting in 1985.  Coca-Cola produced 500,000 cans of New Coke which has been available for the past three weeks, and shazbazzar and JediShua have gotten their hands on some.  It’s time for a taste test, EarBuds.  Can you guess the results?  (Video available on YouTube.)   Vinyl Scratchback What did you do in the ‘80s when you had trouble going to sleep in a quiet room?  Lie down and listen to stand-up comedy, of course!  JediShua and shazbazzar (with input from EarBuds) remember some comedy albums they heard when they were younger.  George Carlin, Robin Williams, Justin Wilson, Laurel & Hardy, Howie Mandel, Eddie Murphy, Sam Kinison, Gallagher, Cheech & Chong, and Steve Martin all make the list as we remember comedy on vinyl.   Thanks for tuning in to TechnoRetro Dads, EarBuds!  Go online for more TechnoRetro Dads on iTunes, Apple Podcasts, Stitcher, RetroZap.com, or TechnoRetroDads.libsyn.com.  Pick up your TechnoRetro Dads merchandise at TeePublic.  Don’t forget to rate and review TechnoRetro Dads on iTunes, share us and with us on social media, get TechnoRetro merchandise at TeePublic, and join discussions on Discord about toys, cereal, games, movies and/or shows from the ‘70s and ‘80s by giving the ‘Dads your feedback via voice mail at (209) 878-7323 or sending us your mp3dback via electronic-M to podcast@TechnoRetroDads.com.

“Comparison is the death of joy,” according to Mark Twain. And this is just one of the possibly misquoted quotes we’re bringing to you as we play the comparison game. This week, we’re talking about how we compare ourselves to other, how it feels, and the crazy things competition drives us to do.

Branding expert Robin Teets joins Tim to discuss the time Coca-Cola decided to change its highly successful 99-year old formula to a new one and the chain of events that took place after that. Robin and Tim talk about why the company decided to make the move, what it did right, and how it could get it so wrong. Marketing lessons that are still taught in MBA classes today. https://traffic.libsyn.com/shapingopinion/The_New_Coke_Fiasco_-_Episode_30_-_auphonic.mp3   On April 23rd, 1985, Coca-Cola announced it would discontinue its beloved Coca-Cola formula for a new one. This marked the first formula change to the product in 99 years. At that time, the company said it was changing the formula for modern tastes. Coke and Pepsi were in the middle of fierce competition. This was when colas dominated the non-alcoholic beverage marketplace, and the battle between the two companies was called the Cola Wars. The branding that made Pepsi so successful was its appeal to youth, building its marketing around a new generation. Pepsi was also sweeter and more sugary than Coke. Some experts have believed Coke was inadvertently following Pepsi’s lead by trying to make the product sweeter and more appealing to young people. Late Night comics weighed in. David Letterman made the comment, “Coke’s decided to make their formula sweeter, they’re going to mix it with Pepsi.” For its part, Coca-Cola said its share lead over Pepsi was slipping for 15 years. The company said the cola category in general was lethargic. Consumer research had told Coca-Cola that consumer preference for Coke was dipping, and so was awareness. Coke’s Consumer Research Coke conducted taste tests for a new formulation with nearly 200,000 consumers. They said the test results (based only on taste) favored “New Coke.” What they didn’t measure was the emotional bond consumers may have felt with the original Coca-Cola brand.  Reports are that Coke spent $4 million on development of the new product. Much of this was spent on consumer research. Backlash Shortly after the announcement, a groundswell erupted among consumers. Consumers sent letters to the company. They called the company, and that was just the beginning. The company was getting 1,500 calls a day on a company hotline. Overall, they received about 400,000 angry calls and letters. People started to hoard what cases of old product they could find. Protests started. One man became the face of the protests. Gay Mullins of Seattle, launched a lawsuit, and he loaned $120,000 to create a group he called Old Cola Drinkers of America. He said he got 60,000 calls a day in support of his effort. The group circulated petitions, created a brand of its own featuring the New Coke logo crossed out. They staged media events. The message was unanimous. America wanted their original Coke back. Corrective Action In July of 1985, the company decide to bring back original Coke, but it was done gradually.  They introduced something called Coca-Cola Classic, but still they continued to offer New Coke under different names. “Coke II” was one of them. Finally, the company stopped making the alternative in 2002, 17 years later. Once Coca-Cola Classic was reintroduced, sales actually went up over time and brand loyalty for a large number of base consumers was strengthened. Lessons In the long run, the question is did the controversy help or hurt the brand? According to research and sales results: 75% of those surveyed said they’d by New Coke again. New Coke sales were on a par with original Coke sales. The main thing was people did not like the idea of not having the option for the original Coke. People did not like not having a say. Still, it doesn’t appear the change helped Pepsi. Pepsi’s sales were down from 1984 to 1985. Even New Coke outperformed Pepsi. Coca-Cola also introduced sweeter Cherry Coke in 1985 and that seemed to do as much for the Coke bra...

New Coke was the unofficial name for the reformulation of Coca-Cola introduced in April 1985 by The Coca-Cola Company to replace the original formula of its flagship soft drink, Coca-Cola (also called Coke). New Coke originally had no separate name of its own but was simply known as "the new taste of Coca-Cola" until 1992, when it was officially renamed Coke II. Coca-Cola's market share had been steadily losing ground to diet soft drinks and non-cola beverages for many years. Meanwhile, consumers who were purchasing regular colas seemed to prefer the sweeter taste of rival Pepsi-Cola, as Coca-Cola learned in conducting blind taste tests. However, the American public's reaction to the change was negative, even hostile, and the new cola was a major failure. The subsequent, rapid reintroduction of Coke's original formula (which was re-branded as "Coca-Cola Classic" and put back into market within three months of New Coke's debut) resulted in a significant gain in sales. This led to speculation that the introduction of the New Coke formula was just a marketing ploy; however, the company has always maintained it was a genuine attempt to replace the original product.[1] New Coke remains influential as a cautionary tale against tampering too extensively with a well-established and successful brand. It was officially discontinued in July 2002. --- Our theme song was written and performed by Anna Bosnick.

The Relatively Speaking Podcast is back with the force of 1,000 suns. Is that a good or a bad thing? There is only a singular way to find out, and that involves you allowing your ears to consume what is arguably the single greatest podcast with hosts named Jared and Joseph. This edition's episode opens with basketball Twitter opening up its arms to help a cause. While some may disagree with what is being advocated for (or against), it is nice to see people using their -- even if only limited -- celebrity to help causes they believe in. Bad Tweets is back and better than ever. We were going to simply embed both bad tweets this week, but one of the geniuses realized his tweet was so awful that he has since deleted it. No worries, however, as Jared was smart enough to save the tweet so we can all point and laught. Royal Rumble hot-takes become a part of this episode thanks to one of the Bad Tweets. Joseph argues that if you hate something so much, you know, maybe you should no longer consume it. Would you like to see a boxer fistfight an MMA fighter in a boxing match? This question appears to be all the rage om combat sports circles, and while both hosts believe the fight will never actually happen, they would be more than happy to watch. Absurd Questions is rather absurd this week. Find out what the guys would give each person for free (Jared cheats, by the way). Also find out if Jared likes Coca Cola Classic. Spoiler: He doesn't, so that makes him a commie.

Marc Bluestein, Founder and CEO of Aquarius Sports and Entertainment, shares his passion for sports and marketing with Our Town host Andy Ockershausen in this all new episode of Our Town podcast. He is originally from Philadelphia, but grew up in Our Town, and as Andy tells him "is a big part of Our Town". Marc Bluestein, also known as "Blue", grew up playing baseball and always dreamed of playing college ball. After high school he attended the University of Tampa and successfully “walked on” to the university’s baseball team. He realized after a short time that he couldn’t compete in Division 2 baseball in Tampa, and ended up transferring to the University of South Florida to concentrate on his studies. While at USF, Marc interned with the Tampa Bay Lightning after they joined the NHL in the 1992-93. He came back to Our Town after college, but is quick to say that Tampa holds a special place in his heart. Blue began his career in Our Town with W.B. Doner Advertising in Baltimore. He eventually moved close to Doner’s offices in Baltimore and lived with three roommates. His starting salary was $18,000 and rent was $195 month. Marc would spend weekends with his then girlfriend in DC. Marc Bluestein’s Doner accounts included FILA, marketing tennis as well as ski and snowboarding, as well as MidAtlantic Milk Marketing Association and First National Bank of Maryland, which later became All First and then M&T. These accounts not only involved media planning and buying but they all used sports sponsorships and sports media buys as part of their communications platform. For instance, FILA’s first big deal signed was with Sammy Sousa as endorser. Marc had become the sports marketing expert and was made Sports Marketing Manager at 23. He used this opportunity to build his own foundation for his career in sports marketing. After a few years, Blue packed a U-Haul and moved to Manhattan, where he had always dreamed of working. At 26, Marc Bluestein went to NY to work for DMB&B and then Mediavest. Blue’s client list was impressive and he was able to grow his sports marketing experience further. For example, he worked with Coca-Cola Classic expanding their NFL & NASCAR programs. He also worked with Norelco who worked with MLB, X-Games and Gravity Games. One of the Norelco promotions was the 21 day challenge which involved ESPN radio’s Mike and Mike and Jim Rome. Blue took advantage of an opportunity to move to Sports Illustrated. He drew upon his sports sponsorship experience to help them grow from selling print ads to offering sponsorship opportunities. SI wanted to take their brand and grow their two franchises with sponsorship opportunities. Marc Bluestein recalls the details of two incredible SI promotions that involved Miller Beer and Pontiac, respectively. You will want to listen in to the interesting stories of behind these promotions. Marc and his wife decided to move to Washington DC, so Marc finished up in New York at Sports Illustrated and they came back to Our Town where he worked at Home Team Sports, now Comcast Sportsnet. The offer to come back was attractive, in part, because he would be working with all the sports teams he loved. Andy compliments Marc on the work he did at Comcast Sportsnet. He was a star and brought a touch of New York advertising with him, which benefitted his new employer. Looking to advance, grow and figure it all out, Marc started looking at relocating but ended up accepting advice and guidance from a former client, Rick DiBella and, his boss, Jeff Parsigian. They suggested that he start his own business. So. . .9 years ago during the Thanksgiving holiday he downloaded an online template and completed a 15 page business plan, which was the impetus for his new company, Aquarius Sports Group. Andy and Marc discuss the very personal nature of the name Aquarius, and what prompted Marc to take the risk to start his own business.

The guys are back in Episode 32 to do a little remembering about New Coke, candy from the seventies and give a little love advice.  While we fully acknowledge that nostalgia for the 90's is the territory of the Partial Recall Podcast, we felt that we were safe to slide back into the seventies and eighties for a bit of "membering". A previous episode featured the story of a faulty Coke machine in the jr. high field house which if someone was willing to get shocked, would continue to feed out free Coke's.  Ty and Heavy seemed to remember that it was a "New Coke" machine so that prompted us to discuss the disastrous change from the traditional Coke recipe to the New Coke  and the subsequent backlash that led to Coca-Cola Classic, with New Coke eventually fading out of existence. They Even Got Cosby to Shill for New Coke Of course we discuss why Coca-Cola management felt the need to monkey with a good thing.  A major factor was the Pepsi Challenge.  Ty lays out why the Pepsi Challenge was successful and why ultimately, it was deceptive to the Coca-Cola management. Gabe Kaplan of Welcome Back Mr. Kotter Conducting the Pepsi Challenge All of this talk about soft drinks leads the crew to remember magical moments when an ice cold Dr. Pepper or Coke was the best thing in the world.  Then the conversation turns to each member's favorite candy back in the olden times.  Gustav brings up some long gone candies like the Marathon Bar or Reggie Bar while Ty and Heavy just stare blankly at him. Patrick Wayne (son of John Wayne} in a Marthon Bar Commercial Turning from nostalgia to their mission statement to help their listeners, the guys put on their Dear Abby wigs and answer an email from Pretty Little Nurse  on how to catch a guy that she has been on a couple of dates with.  After delivering some remarkably sound advice, Gustav tells how Mrs. Gustav put him through a long interview process before she finally gave into his questionable charms.

They represented a country that considered them second class citizens and competed in a country that rolled out the red carpet in spite of an undercurrent of Aryan superiority and anti-Semitism.

Tuesday, August 18, 2015.  Thirty years ago this month, the original (well, almost the original) formula of Coca-cola came back to store shelves as Coca-cola Classic.  I take a look at the real reason behind one of the greatest marketing failures of the 20th century, as well as noting how the company's choice in branding the return of "Old Coke" has had a surprising influence on our language.
