On the latest episode of the Remarkable Retail Podcast co-hosts Steve Dennis and Michael LeBlanc deliver another fast-moving episode at the intersection of strategy, leadership, and retail reinvention.The episode opens with Steve leading the weekly news rundown, spotlighting Walmart's groundbreaking partnership with OpenAI's ChatGPT — a move that could redefine how shoppers discover products and transact. They then turn to earnings where LVMH's modest rebound hints at a possible luxury reset, contrasted sharply with Saks Global's double-digit losses and ongoing integration pains. The co-hosts analyze Levi's direct-to-consumer surge under CEO Michelle Gass, before diving into Aritzia's remarkable 32% growth and aggressive US expansion.From there Michaels Arts & Crafts CEO David Boone joins for a wide-ranging conversation about creativity, transformation, and speed.

Drawing on his leadership experience at Staples Canada, Boone contrasts private equity agility with public-company complexity and explains why, in today's market, inaction is riskier than risk itself.Boone also details Michaels' journey toward a truly omnichannel creative ecosystem, where digital discovery enhances the tactile joy of physical stores. He discusses the integration of JoAnn's beloved IP into the Michaels experience and how the company's purpose — “fueling the joy of creativity and celebration” — guides everything from store design to marketing voice.Steve and Michael close with their “what's remarkable” segment, breaking down OpenAI's new Sora social video app and the explosive pace of AI adoption and lifting up International artisanal brand MUDD and the creative retail energy they embody.

Ireland’s move to make its Basic Income for the Arts scheme permanent in 2026 has reignited debate about how governments value and sustain the creative economy.

Dr Ismail Mahomed, Director of the Centre for Creative Arts at the University of KwaZulu-Natal, speaks to Lester Kiewit about the lessons South Africa can draw from Ireland’s experience, the challenges local artists face in maintaining livelihoods, and what a similar model could look like in the South African context, where funding constraints and the undervaluing of creative work continue to threaten the sector’s long-term growth.

Valerie Gay discussed Philadelphia’s newest office, Creative Philadelphia, overseeing the city’s arts and culture and its creative economy. She discussed how it will offer opportunities for all Philadelphians to thrive through the arts. Known before as the Office of Arts, Culture, and the Creative Economy, their goals are to increase public access to arts and culture, partner with local creative communities and highlight to us and to the world the city’s vast cultural assets. Ms Gay points out the arts don’t just enrich us, they help create a safer, cleaner, and greener city where creatives can thrive both socially and economically. We spoke about the upcoming influx of tourists for 2026, and the need for Philadelphia itself to recognize its amazing cultural holdings. We discussed some of the city’s better known assets, the City Hall rotating gallery, the outdoor art supported by the mandatory developers % for arts and the Mural Arts programs, and then local neighborhood projects and programs that don’t get the attention. She described community installations such as Healing Verse Germantown and the Paschalville Library Mushroom Seating.For artists, she talked about the Percent for Art Call for Artists looking for submissions for projects such as the Constitution Health Plaza: Public Health Lab. Finally, we talked about the master plan they are preparing to release this coming May, defining assets and outlining the infrastructures for the future for the office and the creative communities.

Summer is in full swing, and with summer for academics comes the typical question, “Do you have summers off?” I can't speak for all academics, but summers don't mean the lack of work, but the shifting of work. We go from our primary focus being on teaching and into other pursuits that we don't have time for during the school year. Typically that means research and writing. For me, it is no different. I've been doing a lot of writing, working on the Experience by Design book and making some progress. Of course, I think that everything I am writing is terrible. At some point soon you can be judge at how bad or good it is. But rather than thinking of “bad' or “good”, I'm thinking more in terms of “done” or “not done.” And “done” is better.Another part of my summer is doing this podcast. When this was started over 6 years ago, the biggest challenge was getting people who wanted to chat about their work. Then gradually PR firms would contact me about their clients who could appear on the show. Now, getting guests is no longer the hardest part. Rather, it is getting the episodes out to keep up with the number of conversations that I'm having. This means that I'm going to try to go to launching an episode a week. This is no small feat given that this is a one-person operation. Communicating with guests, having an introductory conversation, recording the conversation, recording intros and outros, audio engineering, loading it up, updating the website, creating promotional materials. All of it is me. That's a lot of work.The biggest payoff is the conversations that I get to have with the people who appear. I think about how I would have never have learned as much as I have and made the connection that I have if it wasn't for the podcast. And that's pretty cool. And makes the work worth it.My guest today has been part of many different design projects, including the Most Important Conversation Initiative. Chad Lefevre and I were once neighbors, me living in Detroit and he being born in Windsor. Has since traveled the world doing design work. From the United Way in Calgary (we also have in common that we worked for United Way) to working with thought leaders at Design Shop to tackle society's most complex problems (like peace in the Korean peninsula), he's covered a lot of ground. We do likewise in our conversation. Along with those topics, we look at the impact of AI on society and the workforce, and how we need to design a new way of being. We talk about how we are entering the Creative Economy, and how creativity is the new currency. We talk about even though people are resistant to change, change is the only constant in life and this moment requires it. And finally we talk about through our conversations maybe we can make a shared reality that allows us to change things together.The Most Important Conversation - https://tmicglobal.comChad Lefevre - https://chadlefevre.comChad Lefevre Substack - https://chadlefevre.substack.com
What's your intellectual property truly worth when it's on the line? Not what you hope or what you feel, but what courts, investors, and negotiators will actually pay. This episode of Intangiblia dives deep into the high-stakes world of IP valuation, where patents, trademarks, and copyrights transform from abstract legal protections into concrete dollar amounts.We journey through landmark global IP disputes that have defined how creative assets are valued in courtrooms from California to Colombia. The Samsung v. Apple design patent battle set precedent for how much of a product's profit can be attributed to its appearance. Epic Systems v. Tata Consultancy Services revealed the billion-dollar worth of trade secrets when they cross into competitors' hands. Meanwhile, cases like Liffers in Spain demonstrate that even moral rights, the right to be credited for your work, carry financial value that courts will recognize and enforce.The podcast unpacks three essential valuation methodologies that every creator should understand: cost-based (what it took to create), market-based (what others pay for similar assets), and income-based (what future earnings it will generate). Through fascinating case studies across industries, from pharmaceuticals to streaming services, sneakers to smartphones, we see how these approaches play out in real disputes with massive financial implications.Beyond methodology, we explore how valuation strategies differ across borders, with emerging economies like India pushing back against one-size-fits-all licensing rates, and Mexico's courts mandating that IP damages reflect genuine commercial impact. The digital transformation adds another layer of complexity, as shown in Disney v. Redbox, where even access codes carried enforceable intellectual property value.Whether you're protecting your creative work, licensing your technology, or facing infringement, this episode delivers a crucial message: in intellectual property, real power lies not just in registration but in pricing. Because in the world of IP, value isn't what you feel, it's what you can prove.Send us a text

I would say just, think about your story a lot. You have a story. Don't underestimate your story. Your story is a collective story of your parents, your neighborhood, your neighbors, your books. It's all part of your story, so don't underestimate your story. Please tell your story, talk about yourself, talk about, the environment you grew up in, things that bothers you. Talk about it. It matters a lot when we talk about our personal things. A lot of people, a lot of time people shy away, they avoid talking about themselves because they think it's showing off. I don't think it's showing off. You are at your most authentic self when you just talk about your story as your story. So please don't underestimate your stories. We might pick up one of your stories and make a movie out of it.
We examine the tension between creative expression and commercial necessity in the digital age. We explore how the pursuit of expensive camera gear and equipment can become a substitute for actual creative work, and discuss the corrupting influence of affiliate marketing and sponsorships on genuine artistic curation. The conversation moves toward the concept of "escape velocity" - finding ways to separate commercial considerations from the creative process through patronage models, financial independence, or simply refocusing on experience over acquisition.We reflect on how social media and internet culture have shifted focus from seeking meaningful experiences to collecting objects, and consider whether it's possible to maintain authentic creative practice while still earning a living from content creation. We discuss the appeal of older, non-commercial equipment and the challenge of building genuine audience relationships in an increasingly commercialized creative landscape. -Ai If you enjoyed this episode, please consider giving us a rating and/or a review.

It takes a lot of public/private partnerships to bring economic stability and growth to a community. Arlington strives to share these partnerships with small businesses that may not otherwise get access to big opportunities. For the second year, Arlington's BizLaunch team is working with Hyatt Crystal City on a Minority Vendor Showcase that takes a partnership to a new level. I'm Susan Soroko, Director of Creative Economy at Arlington Economic Development in Arlington, Virginia. The role of Economic Development is to retain and attract businesses where workers can live and thrive in a great community even when the work world is changing. We support (small) business through programs like BizLaunch and value the importance of placemaking and a sector devoted to creative economy and the arts. Today we're going to talk about a special partnership with Hyatt Crystal City and what it's like to bring your A game to an event. To help me discuss this, I'd like to welcome Tiffany Hamilton, Co- Founder of Victor Wear. Did you know 85% of people with autism are unemployed or underemployed? People like our Co-Founder, Isaiah—a straight-A student, video game developer, swimmer, and competitive bowler—face challenges in the job market, despite their many abilities. That's why we launched Victor Wear, an award-winning activewear brand dedicated to inspiring resilience and empowering and employing the autism community. We aim to have our company primarily run by neurodivergent individuals to create jobs while changing the disability narrative and creating a more inclusive world. At the Hyatt Regency Crystal City, our commitment to the community, connection, and care is at the heart of everything we do. We strive to create meaningful opportunities and foster an environment where all individuals feel valued and supported. Building strong relationships and opening doors for our diverse neighbors is our passion, especially within our National Landing community. That is the spark and core to the Minority Vendor Showcase that we aim to host each year.

This week's guest is the singular Michael Dean, who graduated from architecture school and played in a band before spending years in tech working on virtual reality, only to metamorphose into one of the best essayists I've ever read. With support from Humans On The Loop supporters O'Shaughnessy Ventures and Cosmos Institute, Dean is now decoding the structure of great essays and translating his framework into both a textbook and an AI-powered editing tool.In this conversation, we explore how to cultivate human agency at the frontiers where physical reality and the metaverse fold into one another and entangled human and machine intelligences unleash radical new possibilities for reflection and creativity. By the end of our discussion we start to trace the contours of a world in which everyone has a better chance to pursue their passions without having to worry about “product-market fit” — a future in culture stages a glorious insurrection against the dehumanizing division between passion and paid work.If this episode stimulates or triggers you, please leave a comment here or on YouTube — I would love to learn from you and this project exists as a space for thoughtful discourse!Upcoming Events* 3 May @ 11 am Mountain– Book Club: Prophetic Culture by Federico Campagna(patrons-only discussion)* 13 May-14 June – How To Live In The Future at Weirdosphere(five-week online course with ten sessions)Project Links• Explore this project's essay and episode archives• Join the Discord server• Browse the books we discuss on the show• Explore the conversational mind-map grown from nine years of conversations• Book me for speaking or consultingDean's LinksThe Secret Architecture of Great EssaysTeleportation, $97/month, coming soonLas Vegas & the MetaverseA change of heartPrepping for the Editor G*dsMega-updateSungazerLucy in the Sky of Large Language Models4 Types of Material in Every EssayMentioned Books & ArticlesMichael Garfield – Sacred DataJohn Smart – The transcenscion hypothesisJ.C.R.

Empire of Culture: Neo-Victorian Narratives in the Global Creative Economy (SUNY Press, 2024) by Dr. Waiyee Loh brings together contemporary representations of Victorian Britain to reveal how the nation's imperial past inheres in the ways post-imperial subjects commodify and consume "culture" in the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries. The globalization of English literature, along with British forms of dress, etiquette, and dining, in the nineteenth century presumed and produced the idea that British culture is a universal standard to which everyone should aspire. Examining neo-Victorian texts and practices from Britain, the United States, Japan, and Singapore—from A. S. Byatt's novel Possession and its Hollywood film adaptation to Japanese Lolita fashion and the Lady Victorian manga series—Dr. Loh argues that the British heritage industry thrives on the persistence of this idea. Yet this industry also competes and collaborates with the US and Japanese cultural industries, as they, too, engage with the legacy of British universalism to carve out their own empires in a global creative economy. Unique in its scope, Empire of Culture centers Britain's engagements with the US and East Asia to illuminate fresh axes of influence and appropriation, and further bring Victorian studies into contact with various sites of literary and cultural fandom. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose new book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

As advocates for the Boston music and arts scene, it was important for us to recognize and learn more about Catherine's contributions toward the scene. Her mission to build racial equity and economic empowerment to Black creatives and entrepreneurs is evident through her work the growing success of BAMS Fest, and her role as the Director of Arts & Creativity at The Boston Foundation.During our conversation with Catherine, we learned more about her journey, including: her experiences with racism in the METCO program, her early work as an event coordinator during her college years, and her time spent in Philadelphia (which ultimately inspired her return to Boston and sparked the idea of BAMS Fest). Catherine also shared with us the criteria behind BAMS Fest's selection process for performers, advice she has for up-and-coming artists, and her overall views on the state of the creative economy in Boston.
