Chef, author, and fashion icon Marcus Samuelsson joins Jaymee to talk about identity, style, and the journey that took him from Ethiopia to Sweden to New York. Marcus shares how his grandmother's handmade clothes and early sneaker love shaped his look, why Harlem feels like home, and the global experiences (France, Switzerland, Japan, Singapore) that taught him to mix discipline with street-food soul. Then it's competition time as Marcus previews his rare turn from judge to gladiator on Alex vs. America: Alex vs. Chopped Judges, facing Alex Guarnaschelli alongside Maneet Chauhan and Scott Conant. He breaks down how judging thousands of dishes informed his strategy under the clock, what people underestimate about Alex, and the camaraderie among long-time Chopped colleagues. Marcus also reflects on Bobby's Triple Threat, why competing keeps him sharp, and shares rapid-fire favorites… from bucket hats to a cocktail that blends sake, aquavit, champagne, and honey.

With over 30 years in wireless—from helping pioneer intercarrier SMS to running mobile identity operations across Americas and Asia Pacific — Eddie DeCurtis saw what others missed: 967 of 1,000 global mobile network operators lack the infrastructure to monetize CPNI data while protecting customers from fraud. The technical challenge isn't building APIs. It's that operators spent billions on 5G infrastructure and now lack capital, internal expertise, and operational frameworks to launch authentication services. In 18 months, Shush went from PowerPoint to 30 employees, supporting 47 network APIs with full GSMA Open Gateway compliance. Eddie shares how understanding regulatory frameworks by jurisdiction, not just deploying technology, became their competitive moat—and why hiring the executive who built T-Mobile USA's authentication platform gave them credibility no competitor could match. Topics Discussed: Why operators repeatedly said "we want to do it, we have no idea how, we have no money, we don't have a platform" Validating the thesis with former AT&T Communications CEO John Donovan before launching Securing a POC with a major operator pre-incorporation—with only a PowerPoint deck The three-legged stool: technology, network integration, and business operations (where competitors fail) Why knowing privacy regulations for CPNI data sharing by country became a deal-closer Reducing network integration from dozens of touchpoints to three specific network elements Supporting 8 Linux Foundation Camara APIs and TS.43 GBA AKA authentication standard Going from 3 to 30 employees and launching at Mobile World Congress on a $75/night Airbnb budget GTM Lessons For B2B Founders: Validate with the person most likely to kill your idea: Eddie deliberately chose John Donovan—former CEO of AT&T Communications, board member at Lockheed and Palo Alto Networks—specifically because "he's going to be rough, he's going to totally ask the really hard questions." When Donovan's response was "go raise $40 million and own this space...you're not going to be alone for long," the validation carried weight because it came from someone incentivized to find fatal flaws. Most founders validate with friendly audiences or investors looking for deals. Find the battle-tested executive who has nothing to gain from being kind. Convert pre-product conviction into design partner commitments: Eddie secured a POC agreement with a major operator before Shush incorporated. "I had nothing. I didn't have software. We had an idea, we had a PowerPoint presentation." This only works when you've spent decades building domain expertise and relationships. The lesson isn't "sell vaporware"—it's that deep industry knowledge lets you articulate problem-solution fit so precisely that sophisticated buyers commit before seeing code. Infrastructure founders with 10+ years in-market can accelerate 12-18 months of product-market fit by converting expertise into early design partnerships. The enterprise moat is operational knowledge, not technical capability: Eddie's thesis: "Anybody can come up with the technology. You walk down the street in the Bay Area, 10 developers will develop it for you." Shush differentiated by answering questions competitors couldn't: How do you price SIM swap detection per query? What are CPNI data sharing regulations in Indonesia versus Brazil? How do you navigate internal stakeholder alignment across legal, privacy, and regulatory teams at a tier-one operator? When Eddie told an operator "here's the privacy rules for your country" after they admitted "I have no idea," he closed a knowledge gap that pure technology vendors can't fill. In regulated infrastructure markets, execution expertise beats technical superiority. Target the ambition-capability gap in capital-constrained buyers: Operators told Eddie the same story: eager to launch authentication services, zero clarity on execution, budgets decimated by 5G spending. This created perfect conditions for a full-stack solution. "Mid-market is hard because you have a buyer with problems that are not basic anymore, but they lack the ability to execute." Shush didn't sell point solutions—they delivered technology, integration, and business operations as a turnkey package. Identify buyers with sophisticated needs, strong intent, and constrained internal resources. That's where full-stack platforms win over point tools. Hire the operator who ran your exact use case at scale: Eddie cold-called John Morrowton, who "built this actual product and service offering at T-Mobile USA, from its inception to its execution and ran it for four years." His pitch: "I'm Eddie DeCurtis, how are you? You want a job? You're Chief Product Officer." Hiring someone who'd operationalized authentication services at a tier-one carrier gave Shush instant credibility with operator buyers and compressed years of trial-and-error into institutional knowledge. In infrastructure sales, hiring executives from reference customers eliminates "can you actually do this" objections before they surface. Minimize integration surface area to accelerate deployment: Mobile operators run highly secure networks with limited external access points. Shush "narrowed it down to three network elements that we can communicate with to provide all 47 APIs." Fewer integration points means faster deployment, lower implementation risk, and reduced operator IT overhead. This architectural decision became a sales accelerator. Infrastructure founders: identify the minimal viable integration that unlocks maximum API coverage, then make that your differentiated deployment story.   //   Sponsors: Front Lines — We help B2B tech companies launch, manage, and grow podcasts that drive demand, awareness, and thought leadership. www.FrontLines.io The Global Talent Co. — We help tech startups find, vet, hire, pay, and retain amazing marketing talent that costs 50-70% less than the US & Europe. www.GlobalTalent.co // Don't Miss: New Podcast Series — How I Hire Senior GTM leaders share the tactical hiring frameworks they use to build winning revenue teams.

How do you professionalize an unregulated industry across a vast country? Erika Godwin and Morag Wilcox share why they launched Canadian Pet Care Professionals, a membership built by and for Canada's pet care providers. They explain the “Verified Pro” approach, Canada-specific education (HR, legal, CRA), and a public directory designed to build trust with pet parents. We discuss shifting the mindset from “pet care is a luxury” to “professional care is a necessity,” and why turning competitors into colleagues helps everyone win. The conversation closes with how in-person events and a shared code of ethics can elevate standards from coast to coast. Main topics: Why a Canada-first organization Verified Pro directory & badge HR, legal, CRA education Competitors into collaborative colleagues In-person events & advocacy Main takeaway: “If we work together to raise the standard in the industry, it's better for all of us.” — Morag This is the heartbeat of professional pet care in Canada. When we collaborate, share resources, and uphold clear standards, pet parents get safer, more consistent care—and our businesses grow stronger. Verified credentials and Canada-specific education help build real trust with clients. Let's replace turf wars with teamwork and make “professional” the norm from coast to coast. About our guests: Erika Godwin — Co-founder of Canadian Pet Care Professionals; long-time industry supporter on the tech and marketing side. She builds websites and growth systems for pet businesses and co-founded ProPet Software, serving kennels, daycare, grooming, and training operations. Morag Wilcox — Co-founder of Canadian Pet Care Professionals and owner of York Professional Pet Sitting & Dog Walking in Newmarket, Ontario.

Two service pros, same service, same price, same city… so why does AI recommend them and not you? Here's the truth. AI doesn't guess. It chooses the clearer, safer, more repeated name. This is where answer engine optimization (AEO) meets your daily reality as a service pro. In 2025, SEO alone won't save you. Generative engine optimization, AI discovery, and digital networking are now the trails that decide who gets chosen. In this episode of the Branding Momentum podcast, you'll learn how AI makes the tie-break between you and a competitor: • How to make your niche and specialty crystal clear so both AI search and humans know exactly what you do • Why consistency across LinkedIn, your website, podcasts, and transcripts teaches AI to connect the dots• Where to show up through digital networking—guest podcasts, collaborations, newsletters, articles, and communities—so your name travels further • Why one collaboration multiplies your visibility across feeds, YouTube clips, blogs, and transcripts faster than twenty solo posts in your own bubble If you've been visible but not chosen, this is the missing piece. I'm Veronica Di Polo, a marketing strategist based in Moraira, Spain, helping service-based business owners get leads with words that sell. _______________________  

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1161: Today we're talking about the end of the EV lease credit frenzy and how dealers and OEMs are adjusting. We'll also hit Hertz's big push into e-commerce with Tom Brady, and OpenAI's bold play to challenge TikTok with AI video.With the $7,500 EV lease credit gone, September's sales rush gave way to a new normal. Dealers say volume could dip at first, but manufacturers are adjusting incentives, production, and lease programs while retailers recalibrate inventory and ordering strategies.Ford CEO Jim Farley said he “wouldn't be surprised” if EV sales fall by half without the federal incentive.Like we covered a couple of days ago, GM and Ford are extending the lease credit through creative captive finance workarounds, while Hyundai is offering a $7,500 cash incentive on the 2025 Ioniq 5 and plans to cut 2026 model prices by up to $9,800.Dealer Andy Guelcher says “It was time for this to go away, and I think that [EVs] can stand on their own,” but he expects some near-term demand bumps.“Nobody wants to be in a position where we're stuck with a lot of inventory that's not moving,” said Dealer Ken Ganley.Hertz is going all-in on digital retail, launching a new e-commerce platform that lets customers browse, finance, and purchase used cars entirely online, positioning retail as its primary sales channel, according to CEO Gil West.The new HertzCarSales.com site has evolved from a catalog into a full-service e-commerce platform.The move builds on Hertz's August partnership with Amazon Autos, now covering all 45 Hertz Car Sales locations.Hertz has also expanded its Rent2Buy program to more than 100 cities, giving shoppers extended test drives before committing.A national campaign with Tom Brady debuts this week, promoting the simplicity of buying a Hertz vehicle.CEO Gil West called it “a major step forward in modernizing how we serve our customers.”OpenAI is betting AI-powered video can win the race for user attention, announcing Sora 2, a new social-media app for its AI video generator. Sora 2 lets users create HD video clips with audio from text prompts and upload themselves into AI-generated worlds.The TikTok competitor will include vertical feeds, algorithm-driven recommendations, and safeguards against endless doomscrolling.0:00 Looking back at the history of More Than Cars2:00 Intro with Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier2:30 The Big More Than Cars Launch5:33 Upcoming ASOTU Edge Webinar with Uber For Business6:22 How Dealers and OEMs are Responding To The End of the EV Tax Credit10:01 Hertz Goes All In On Digital Car Sales12:Join Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

Is she right or is she crossing a line? Your calls. 1 - Lt. Colonel Allen B. West rejoins us today as Secretary of War, Pete Hegseth, made bold declarations yesterday as to what direction he is taking the military. Would Allen have conveyed that message in the same way as Hegseth? Has the standard for the military gone so far down that we need a rejuvenation like this? Should there be only one fitness standard for the military? Where will Allen be soon? 120 - More polling on the New Jersey gubernatorial race. Your calls. 130 - Senate President Pro Tempore Kim Ward joins us this hour. Is Matt Bradford really secretly running the state? Can we get a budget passed? Are schools being hurt or helped by the state's education initiatives? How good has Stacy Garrity been on the budget? Could a lot of this be resolved if the Governor's office opened better dialogue with the Treasurer's office? As a breast cancer survivor, how proud is she of this cancer-related bill going through legislation right now? How does Kim Ward feel about Philadelphia flying a Chinese flag at City Hall? 2 - Congressman Jeff Van Drew joins us to kick off the final hour. The conversation starts with a discussion on the Chinese influence in the US, as New Jersey toll roads are being sold to the Chinese and Philadelphia flies the Chinese flag at City Hall. Where has the country's moral compass gone? What is happening with the government shutdown? What does the Republican Party need to realize as it moves forward in its legislative duties? What does Jeff think about the murder on the light rail in Charlotte, as he has been outspoken on curtailing public violence? 215 - Dom's Money Melody! 230 - Humppa! 240 - Hanoi Jane speaks up about the lack of effort in Democrat politicians and how she is creating a PAC of Hollywood personalities to demand change through cash. 250 - The Lightning Round!

In the face of rising competition from new brands, more demanding consumers and ever present cost pressures, it's not easy to run a successful brand.Thus it's not surprising that more brands are losing momentum or are stuck in slump that isn't being solved by changing creative directors, altering their DNA or adding new lines.In many cases, that's actually made things worse.To get a better understanding of what where brands are going wrong - and were a few are getting it right - I reached out to Glenn McMahon, a C-suite apparel industry executive who helps brands establish clear creative vision while driving  EBITDA growth and margin expansion.In this episode he shares where brands have gone wrong - and what leadership might do to get them back on track.  Glenn also talks about what he sees as a game-changing AI development that the industry can't afford to overlook.Visit A Seat at The Table's website at https://seat.fm

Arun Sundaram joins Morning Movers to preview Costco (COST) earnings which report after Thursday's close. He doesn't expect any surprises on revenue, but is looking for a membership fee revenue beat after the wholesaler increased its fees. Arun believes operating expenses will be the big wildcard after Costco extended the 1-hour early opening back in July for its Executive Members. He says investors could be wary of the company's valuation as it hovers below $1000 per share.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Burt Flickinger believes Costco (COST) has a much wider moat compared to peers like Walmart (WMT) and Target (TGT). He adds that the company's cost-cutting measures will help levy tariff costs he expects Costco to pass onto vendors.

Achondroplasia is the most common form of dwarfism. Beyond short stature, people living with achondroplasia can experience serious health complications, including compression of the brainstem and upper spinal cord due to impaired development of the skull. Tyra Biosciences is developing a next-generation medicine to precisely target FGFR3, an overactive growth factor that causes achondroplasia. We spoke to Todd Harris, CEO of Tyra Biosciences, about the company's experimental once-daily, oral medicine for achondroplasia; what's known about it from studies conducted to date, and why he believes it will offer competitive advantages over existing therapies.

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1154: Ford gets creative to close Q3 with a subprime rate push on F-150s. New Jersey locks in fair pay for techs doing recall work. And Chick-fil-A jumps into the specialty drink race with a fresh new concept.Show Notes with links:Ford is making a bold push to close Q3 strong by offering promotional interest rates to subprime borrowers—an unusual but calculated move that underscores growing affordability challenges in the new vehicle market.The deal, ending this month, allows buyers with credit scores below 620 to access the same low rates typically reserved for prime borrowers.Ford is targeting this incentive to move more F-150 pickups, which now range from $39K to nearly $80K.With average monthly payments nearing $750 and interest rates at 6.4%, the brand sees affordability as a top barrier to closing deals.Extended terms of 72–84 months are increasingly common, and Ford's finance arm says only 3–4% of its 2024 loans qualify as “higher risk.”“We wanted to provide the opportunity to those with credit ratings that may not be perfect,” a Ford spokesperson said. “This could help offset rising monthly payments.”New legislation in New Jersey is giving dealership service departments a major boost—ensuring fair pay for recall and warranty work while holding automakers more accountable.The “Motor Vehicle Open Recall Notice and Fair Compensation Act” takes effect April 2026.Manufacturers must reimburse at retail labor rates, not discounted warranty rates.Automakers must also pay 1.5% monthly of book value for any “stop sale” or “do not drive” recall units sitting on lots.Illinois saw an annual $249M increase in warranty payouts after passing similar legislation.“This legislation represents a critical step forward… and ensures that automakers fairly compensate those who fix their mistakes,” said NJ CAR President Laura Perrotta.Chick-fil-A is entering the specialty drink wars with a new concept called Daybright, a standalone beverage-focused brand launching near Atlanta later this fall.Daybright will feature smoothies, cold-pressed juices, and specialty coffees—no chicken sandwiches here.Operated by Chick-fil-A's innovation arm, Red Wagon Ventures, the concept joins earlier spin-offs like Little Blue Menu and Pennycake.The new brand enters a booming beverage space already being chased by McDonald's, Taco Bell, and Wendy's.Competitors like 7 Brew and Dutch Bros have seen triple-digit growth as Gen Z flocks to drink-first concepts.0:00 Intro with Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier1:07 Huge Launch Announcement at MoreThanCars.com2:20 ASOTU Edge Webinar TODAY at 2PM on Cost-Cutting3:10 Ford Offers Low Rates To Sub-Prime Buyers5:29 New Jersey MandJoin Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

Whatagraph has evolved from a bootstrap marketing reporting tool to a comprehensive marketing intelligence platform processing data from 12+ sources for marketing teams globally. With over $10 million in funding and a decade of iteration, the Lithuania-based company recently launched "Whatagraph 3.0"—a fundamental shift from pure sales-led to hybrid PLG motion. In this episode of Category Visionaries, Justas Malinauskas shares the technical and strategic decisions behind their transformation from agency tool to enterprise marketing intelligence platform, including their multi-agentic AI implementation and the SEO strategy that generates 500+ MQLs monthly. Topics Discussed: Technical architecture evolution from reporting automation to full-stack marketing intelligence Strategic pivot from sales-led to hybrid PLG/sales-led motion triggered by mission misalignment Advanced SEO methodology using competitor pain point analysis and search behavior reverse engineering AI implementation using multi-agentic systems rather than simple LLM integration Lithuania's bootstrap-first ecosystem and knowledge-sharing networks among unicorn companies Go-to-market evolution across three distinct phases over 10 years GTM Lessons For B2B Founders: Engineer time-to-value as your primary PLG enabler, not feature breadth: Whatagraph achieved 5-minute time-to-value from data connection to dashboard generation—versus the industry standard of hours—by rebuilding their onboarding around AI-powered automation rather than manual drag-and-drop configuration. Justas notes this wasn't just UI optimization but fundamental product architecture changes: "It's basically a lot of knowledge from our last 10 years...we're able to build it like really multi-agentic platform which helps to build those things in steps, not just like drop something randomly." For PLG success, optimize your technical stack for immediate value delivery, not comprehensive feature exposure. Weaponize competitor technical limitations through content strategy: Rather than competing on generic "best marketing tool" keywords, Whatagraph dominated by creating authoritative content around specific competitor pain points. Their "Looker Studio being slow" content strategy captured high-volume searches from frustrated users by actually helping solve the problem while positioning their technical advantages. Justas explains: "The biggest problem was it's actually very slow...when we have everything in house we can make things like very quick and speedy compared to there." Target technical pain points your architecture inherently solves rather than fighting brand-to-brand keyword battles. Align your ICP strategy with your actual technical capabilities, not market perception: Whatagraph's shift to hybrid PLG wasn't market-driven but mission-driven. Justas realized their technical product could serve smaller organizations, but their sales-led approach artificially excluded them: "We were not empowering in the first place people, everyone to make those data driven decisions fast...we were not allowing everyone into the product even if our product was allowing to." Audit whether your go-to-market motion matches your product's actual technical capabilities and addressable market, not just your current revenue optimization. Build SEO moats through search behavior psychology, not keyword tools: Whatagraph's SEO dominance came from Justas thinking like customers in problem-solving mode rather than using standard keyword research. He reverse-engineered the complete buyer journey: "People go through a very much regular process...they search for a problem...find a blog post...find a product...competition...pricing...reviews...then actually buy the product." They attempted to own multiple touchpoints in this journey through strategic content placement across different domains. Map your customer's actual research psychology, not just search volumes. Implement freemium with full core functionality, not feature limitations: Whatagraph's new freemium tier includes their complete AI-powered report generation ("Whatagraph IQ") with only data source limitations, not feature restrictions. This approach lets small users experience the full product value while creating natural upgrade triggers as they grow. Justas notes: "All the core functionality...you're able to talk with your data within AI capabilities and ask questions about your data as you would pay a couple of thousands a month." Design freemium around usage scaling, not capability restrictions, to demonstrate full product value.   //   Sponsors: Front Lines — We help B2B tech companies launch, manage, and grow podcasts that drive demand, awareness, and thought leadership. www.FrontLines.io The Global Talent Co. — We help tech startups find, vet, hire, pay, and retain amazing marketing talent that costs 50-70% less than the US & Europe.  www.GlobalTalent.co   //   Don't Miss: New Podcast Series — How I Hire Senior GTM leaders share the tactical hiring frameworks they use to build winning revenue teams.

Why Is My Competitor SEO Outranking Me? Marketing Real Talk with Favour Obasi-Ike (Glossary)| Get exclusive SEO newsletters in your inbox.

⚔️ Competitors aren't your enemies—they're your best teachers. In this episode of The Level Up Podcast, Paul Alex reveals why studying your competition is one of the smartest moves you can make as an entrepreneur. Instead of wasting energy hating on competitors, Paul explains how to analyze their strengths, learn from their mistakes, and use their strategies as fuel to level up your own business. From turning their success into a free blueprint, to using their wins to expose your weaknesses, to innovating by improving what's already working—this episode shows you how to outplay the competition without reinventing the wheel.

We kick this one off AMA-style and with a tasty update: Buttered Maple Bacon Keto Brick is back as a seasonal drop this Sunday, the 14th, at noon Central. We talk fall vibes, pecan butter and chunks, and why the cacao-butter version hits just right. We also run through how we're leveling up the Natural State Savages show: bigger medals and trophies (plus a fun surprise), premium venue with dedicated dressing rooms and a backstage livestream, on-site shirt printing, top-tier vendors and a DEXA Fit tie-in, a smoother running order, and even family-friendly touches like getting the kids involved. My dad's smoking barbecue butts all night and Stan's grilling chicken, and judges' feedback will happen upstairs in a single session. Competitor registration closes Sunday the 21st so we can finalize bios and peak-week logistics; spectator tickets are on the same site.In the AMA, we cover a lot: sucralose isn't doomsday but we still lean to stevia/monk fruit; you don't need carbs to run if you're deeply fat-adapted (we reference our VO2 testing and staying mostly in Zone 3). For building, accept a reasonable body-fat window—about 12–15 percent for most guys—while pushing progressive overload. We reframe “cheat days” into on-plan free meals during non-prep phases. On a budget? Eggs, ground beef, and buying from local farmers still win, and bricks are cost-effective per calorie. Protein shakes are overrated versus real food, especially when isolates crank up GI issues. We close with a reverse-diet playbook (bump protein first, then fats, progress weekly, phase out refeeds as daily intake rises) and advice for perimenopause/menopause: eat enough, lift with intent, and prioritize muscle and bone.If this one sparks more questions, send them our way for the next AMA.Greg Mahler is also a lifetime natural bodybuilder, and can be followed on Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/ketogreg80/Register For My FREE Masterclass: https://www.ketobodybuilding.com/registration-2Get Keto Brick: https://www.ketobrick.com/Subscribe to the podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/42cjJssghqD01bdWBxRYEg?si=1XYKmPXmR4eKw2O9gGCEuQ

• Guest Name: Chris Riegel • Affiliation: CEO of scala.com • Summary: The discussion centers on High Bandwidth Memory (HBM) as a critical innovation driving the AI revolution. SK Hynix has surpassed competitors by vertically stacking memory chips, overcoming the "memory wall" to allow faster data access for AI processors. This technology is crucial for AI development, with the US leading innovation. Strict US and EU export controls aim to prevent China from acquiring advanced chip-making tools. 11960
