Today on another encore episode of the Rarified Heir Podcast this Earth Day, we are talking to journalist Michael Simmons, son of National Lampoon co-founder & film producer Matt Simmons. We loved talking to Michael because there is so much history in the (almost) forgotten history of American humor magazine turned pop culture juggernaut, National Lampoon. Michael gives us behind the scenes stories about the fabled National Lampoon editorial offices in Manhattan circa 1974 which was a breeding ground for comedy and specifically Saturday Night Live writers and performers. We discuss National Lampoon stage shows with Chevy Chase, Harold Ramis, John Belushi & Gilda Radner that Michael was road manager when it hit the road. We hear about his dad's strange history as one of the founders the first credit card company, Diner's Club in the 1950s & how it led to National Lampoon. We even get into the history of how National Lampoon came into existence, birthed out of the Harvard Lampoon and even before that. Michael gives us a firsthand account of what it was like being in the offices of National Lampoon before and after films like National Lampoon's Animal House & National Lampoon's Vacation launched the brand mainstream. What's more we hear stories about Harold Ramis got nervous flyer Gilda Radner on a plane she didn't want to get on, Wilt Chamberlain giving him a ride on his shoulders and how he became an award winning journalist in Los Angeles writing about vice squad busts and later, music journalism. So sit back and take a listen to a fascinating story about how National Lampoon begat everything from Second City and This is Spinal Tap to SCTV and The Credibility Gap. It's all here on the Rarified Heir Podcast. Take a listen.

The story of the credit card began in 1950, when business executive Frank McNamara had an unexpected moment of realization after forgetting his wallet during a dinner with clients. This simple mistake led to the creation of the Diners Club card, the first modern credit card, which allowed users to buy now, pay later.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ever wonder how credit cards went from old-school charge plates (cha-ching!) to the tap-to-pay magic we use today? In this episode, we take a fun look at the history of credit cards, their quirks, and how they've been hilariously portrayed in cartoons. From the first Diners Club card to Marge Simpson maxing out her limit, we cover the good, the bad, and the overdrawn. No finance degree is required. Just laughs and swipes!

Rerun: Diners Club, the world's first credit card, was used for the first time at Major's Cabin Grill in New York City on February 8th, 1950. Perhaps at odds with the debonair image the company went on to cultivate, the first iteration was made of cardboard, and required three signatories.  Frank X McNamara claimed to have invented the product after previously dining at Major's and realizing to his horror that he'd left his wallet at home. By the end of their first year in business, Diners Club signed up 42,000 card holders. In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly unpick the role of Diners Club's PR man Matty Simmonds in the company's compelling origin story; commend the savviness of the start-up for targeting wealthy diners at elite restaurants; and explain why, in 1950s America, credit was a man's game…  Photo: The National Museum of American History / Flickr CC Further Reading: •‘When Were Credit Cards Invented: The History of Credit Cards' (Forbes Advisor, 2021): https://www.forbes.com/advisor/credit-cards/history-of-credit-cards/ •‘The surprising history of credit cards: How this tech has evolved and where it's headed' (CNET, 2022): https://www.cnet.com/features/the-history-of-credit-cards/ ‘How Credit Cards Were Invented' (NPR Planet Money, 2018): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2IksSNiEo2g ‘Why am I hearing a rerun?'

Today on the Rarified Heir Podcast, we are talking to journalist Michael Simmons whose father, Matty Simmons was the Chairman of the Board and guiding force behind the National Lampoon empire. It's tough to overstate just how important National Lampoon has been to American comedy and comedy they world over. Launching in the1970s and continuing throughout the 1980s, this satirical magazine begat radio shows, stage plays, television shows and films like Animal House and Vacation, National Lampoon was at the center of mass entertainment for two decades. In fact, National Lampoon is the connective tissue in our comedy DNA that links us to Saturday Night Live, Second City, This is Spinal Tap, The Credibility Gap and much more. So how is it that one of the founders of the very first credit card company, Diners Club and later the publisher of Weight Watchers magazine came to kick off the counter culture comedy quake in the latter half of the 20th century? Ah, therein lies the rub and Michael was there to see it all. From being given rides on the shoulders of basketball star Wilt Chamberlain, to tour managing John Belushi, Gilda Radner, Bill Murray and Harold Ramis on the road, to tripping on mushrooms with Rip Torn, Michael Simmons has been there for the good and the not so good times, as Matty Simmons son. Somehow we get around to talking about LA vice squad busts which won him an LA Press Club award, being the scapegoat in interoffice squabbles to playing in Kinky Friedman's band. We get the lowdown on pretty much all things National Lampoon. Matty Simmons was the most mercurial of characters in the Lampoon story, but not anymore. Michael Simmons gives us a firsthand account of being at the genesis of a legendary comedy magazine that became a brand. It's all right here, on this episode of the Rarified Heir Podcast. Take a listen.

Last week, Apple informed its customers in India that it will no longer store their card information on file and will not be accepting payments made by debit cards and credit cards for purchases or subscriptions on the App store or other Apple services in light of the upcoming RBI regulations.  It will still be accepting payments through UPI. The decision of the US giant surprised many. But not those who are scrambling to meet the RBI deadline on tokenisation of cards which is June 30, 2022. Come July 1, merchants, payment aggregators, payment gateways and acquiring banks can no longer store the card details of customers. Only card issuing banks and card networks can store the actual card data.  With businesses still reeling with the disruption caused by RBI's rules for card-based recurring payments that came into effect January 1 this year, another storm is brewing for them. Businesses and other entities that have stored any such data will have to purge them and apply tokenisation. Tokenisation is the replacement of a card number with an alternative code called the “token”. Once created, the tokenised card details will be used in place of the actual card number for online purchases initiated or instructed by the cardholder. A tokenised card transaction is considered safer as the actual card details are not shared with the merchant during transaction processing. It will cut the chances of card information leakage. For transaction tracking and reconciliation purposes, entities can store the last four digits of card number and card issuer's name. The customer's consent and OTP-based authentication is required for creating a token. A customer can, however, still choose not to tokenise his or her card. In such a case, customers will have to enter complete card details everytime they make a payment. This could lead to a decline in revenues for merchants as a significant number of conversions happen through saved cards. First RBI deadline to tokenise the card details was June 30, 2021. But at the request of merchants and payment aggregators, as well as card companies and banks, it was extended to December 31, 2021. And the deadline was again extended by six months. Earlier this month, Paytm said it had tokenized 2.8 crore cards across Visa, Mastercard and Rupay, accounting for 80% of monthly active cards on the the app. Other businesses are also nudging users to tokenize their cards in order to enjoy a seamless experience from July 1.   For instance, everytime a user opens the Swiggy app, he is greeted with a message at the bottom of the screen to secure his cards before June 30.  PayU, Razorpay, PhonePe, Worldline, Cashfree Payments and Pine Labs are among the companies that have come up with tokenisation solutions to help businesses transition to the new framework. Khilan Haria, VP and Head of Payments Product, Razorpay told Business Standard said that Visa, Mastercard, Rupay and Diners Club have gone live on its tokenisation platform with American Expresses expected to go live soon. However, it is not just card networks, but card issuing banks too have to come onboard.  With just about five weeks to go, where does the payments ecosystem stand in terms of its preparedness? Speaking to Business Standard, Khilan Haria, VP and Head of Payments Product, Razorpay says, he doesn't expect any large scale disruptions from July 1. According to him, 100% of Razorpay merchants are live on its tokenisation solution, and post tokenisation, card networks are ready to process transactions at scale. Majority of the banks are also expected to be ready, he added. Meanwhile, a lack of compliance by banks with RBI's rules on recurring payments is already leading to a large number of recurring transaction failures.   Razorpay's Haria said it would take about 6-9 more months for reaching the stabilisation phase where coverage would be near complete. Several banks are yet to integrate with m

This week sees Dan talking to the Australian indie-pop duo, Client Liaison. Made up of vocalist Monte Morgan, and keyboardist and producer Harvey Miller, the pair first came to prominence in 2012 after the release of their first music video "End of the Earth", and have gone on to release a self-titled EP in 2014, and studio album Diplomatic Immunity in 2016. Their second studio album, Divine Intervention was released on 1 October 2021. Influenced by late '80s and early '90s electronic and house music, the pair produces a style of music described by them as "faux-fi", and incorporate a similar 1980s Australian theme into their personas.   As part of this image, the pair draw a wide range of Australian references into their performances and music videos, and often make reference to brands such Ansett, Foster's, and Diners Club, and have named Tina Arena and John Farnham as being amongst the many influences on their music.   Apple Podcasts: https://t.ly/212Podcast Spotify: https://t.ly/212PodcastSpotify   www.212musicgroup.com/the212podcast

Many Fintechs have emerged across the globe over the past two decades - from the U.S., U.K., and Africa, to China, India, Southeast Asia and beyond. From personal finance to payments; from banking infrastructure to fraud, scores of fintech startups have upended the previously slow moving world of financial services, changed consumer expectations, and challenged incumbents to move beyond the status quo. If you were to pick the two most impactful fintech companies, which ones would they be?Would it be the humble ATM machine and Diners Club, the first widely used charge card? Or would it be Ant Financial, the world’s most valuable fintech startup and Tencent, which have completely changed the payment habits of the country with over 1.3 billion people - rendering it essentially cashless in less than two decades? And no fintech story is complete without mentioning PayPal, one of the earliest fintech startups and one of the most well-known digital wallets.Join us for this week’s episode of One Vision, where Arun, Bradley, and Theo talk about fintech past, present, and future, and the fintech startups that have shaped the industry.

Singer/songwriter Quint Starkie’s musical journey has taken him from the UK where he grew-up, to L.A., to Stockholm, Sweden. His career has enveloped a variety of opportunities that have stretched his talents, including work as a session musician, composer, producer, and a live performer. Quint has also been heavily involved in writing countless jingles and theme music for some of the industry’s biggest brands such as McDonald’s, Toyota, Diners Club, American Express, SAS, Coca Cola and Heineken. However, songwriting is a passion for Quint and in 2016 he released his first solo album titled “Ghost In My Heart”, a 14-track autobiographical collection of songs that displays his adept songwriting and vocal talents. We met Quint for the first time last month in Stockholm for the Pages tribute concert and in watching him perform, we knew we needed to have him on the show. Inside MusiCast is pleased to welcome Quint Starkie.

Frank McNamara founded Diners Club in 1950. He had nothing but big dreams for the establishment and credit cards. He predicted that someday, restaurants would honor the card across New York. His prediction was accurate. Diners Club became the first multipurpose credit card issuer and was accepted widely by merchants. Roughly 72% of consumers in the US carry a credit card. The credit card idea did not start with Diners Club. McNamara’s idea just improved something that already existed.

Onward to Manhood w/ Eric Elliott - You’ve Been Preloaded You’ve Been Preloaded In 1994 IBM introduced a cell phone loaded with 10 apps. In 1950 Diners Club introduced a loaded credit card. In the beginning God introduced a pre-loaded man; loaded with promise, potential and possibilities. You too have been preloaded, with problems that have been prescribed, a path that has been prepared and people who have been positioned.

Today on the podcast we are discussing what “real” telephone customer support is. Many companies say, “You are a premium customer, we value your business so much, you are a VIP.” But when you have to deal with calling those companies, you often do not feel very much like a valued customer at all! Especially when you call in, and you have to go through endless phone trees and menus to finally reach a customer service representative. Nothing says, “I’m not very important,” like having to go through a bunch of menus to reach a person. Although it is the year 2018 and there are many other platforms for customer support out there; telephone support is still needed in certain situations, such as emergencies. In this episode, we take a look at the common issues experienced with telephonic customer support and a few of the companies out there who are streamlining this often very frustrating process. We take a look at the alternatives, like Twitter support, to telephone support and the advantages and disadvantages of these various platforms.

This week on “Marketing Today,” Alan talks with Raja Rajamannar, Chief Marketing and Communications Officer and President, Healthcare Business at Mastercard. Rajamannar started his career at Asian Paints before moving over to the payment industry, holding numerous positions with Citi as well as two years spent as chairman and CEO of Diners Club of North America. He then spent time in the health care industry at Humana and WellPoint before assuming his current role at Mastercard. Rajamannar and Alan spend a great deal of time discussing the incredible 20-year run and global impact of Mastercard’s “Priceless” campaign, which has cut across cultures, manifesting itself in 58 languages and 110 countries. Most recently, Rajamannar and his team shifted the focus of the campaign with its new iteration, “Start Something Priceless,” which launched at this year’s Grammy Awards. Rajamannar also talks about the importance of brands being socially aware and standing for something at a time when consumers aren’t looking to simply buy something but to buy from a brand that shares their values and that they believe in. “Brands will now start becoming more and more socially aware, socially conscious, and try to do something good for society,” says Rajamannar. “Because that’s an expectation from consumers. It’s not only because it’s a good thing to do, it’s what consumers are demanding of their brands.” Highlights from this week’s “Marketing Today” podcast include: Rajamannar talks about his background and the career path that led him to Mastercard. (1:47) Tracing the creation and evolution of Mastercard’s “Priceless” campaign.

I'm Natalie Hazen and I am bringing you the Fun Fuel for this weeks episode. Today's college students are inundated with fliers & applications promoting the latest and greatest credit card. Of course, we can go back to the 1800's when American merchants extended store credit to trusted customers. I think of all the old style cowboy movies where the weary cowboy dismounts his horse, ties the reins around a wood fence in front of the old general store and goes in to buy some well-needed merchandise like sasparilla or something. Gotta love the movies for that visual. The WalletHub.com published an article about the history of the credit card and it was in the early 1900's that a handful of US department stores and oil companies began issuing their own credit cards to be used at that particular business. Then came the Diners Club card and American Express charge cards in 1951 & 1959 respectively. Finally, in 1966, Bank of America launched the first general-purpose credit card: the Bank Americard – the forerunner to what is now VISA. Now I'm certain, that there are still cowboys that dismount their horses and head into their local general store like in days of old, but the stores have certainly changed and so have the credit cards. Thanks for listening to today's Fun Fuel! Now on to the episode. Oh my goodness, I have never connected [Sasparillo 00:00:46] with credit cards. Excellent Fun Fuel, Natalie you're the best. Oh my, let's drop in now to my conversation with Stephen Garten of Charity Charge. Romy: Okay, well welcome Stephen. You're calling in from Texas. I appreciate that. Stephen Garten: Happy to be here. Thanks for having me. Romy: Yes, we're excited to learn about Charity Charge. Let's jump right in. What is Charity Charge? Stephen Garten: Charity Charge is a credit card that lets cardholders earn cash back, that automatically gets donated to any nonprofit of their choice. It's in partnership with MasterCard, so the credit card's accepted around the world, wherever MasterCard is. I think an easy way for people to think about it for context is imagine say a Southwest Airlines credit card where every time you use that credit card, you are earning airline miles. Charity Charge is similar in nature to that, it's just that every time you use it, you earn one percent cash back that's tax deductible and automatically...

Vorstellung, stelle Dich kurz vor Mein Name ist Norbert Bartl. Ich bin Journalist, habe als Redakteur bei den Nürnberger Nachrichten gearbeitet und als Reporter bei »Bild« in München und Frankfurt. Mit 25 habe ich meinen letzten festen Job gekündigt und lebe seitdem vor allem in Spanien und Südamerika, immer mal mit einem Kurzbesuch in Deutschland. Immer mit viel Freude, aber früher oft mit Geldproblemen im Ausland, zum Beispiel mit einer deutschen Zeitung auf Ibiza und Mallorca. Spätestens seit dem Internet mit gutem ortsabhängigen Einkommen. Mein Thema? Das, womit ich Erfahrung habe: Wie Sie zufrieden im Ausland leben. Oder wie es auf meiner Webseite heisst: Wie Sie sich nie mehr über hohe Steuern, überflüssige Vorschriften, nutzlose Behörden, geldgierige Politiker und sture Bürokraten ärgern... Warum bist Du auf Reisen? Das hat sich im Lauf der Zeit gewandelt: Früher aus Abenteuerlust, und weil mir im Alltag schnell langweilig war. Später lebte ich nach dem Motto, lieber ein wackliger Liegestuhl im Süden als ein fester Arbeitsplatz in Deutschland. Etwas Geld verdiente ich immer mal als Reisejournalist – was zwar interessant ist, aber nicht ganz einfach, denn bei vielen deutschen Verlagen ist die Zahlungsmoral nicht sehr hoch, jedenfalls damals. Inzwischen haben sich meine Reisen gewandelt: statt unterwegs sein lieber dortbleiben. Seit 1993 lebe ich ständig im Ausland. Wenn ich wohin fliege, dann um zu recherchieren, wie das Leben dort funktioniert. Wie bist Du unterwegs? Früher immer nur mit dem Auto, bis Sizilien, Ankara, Lissabon, Griechenland, ums halbe Mittelmeer durch Tunesien, Algerien und Marokko, und durch die Sahara bis nach Lagos in Nigeria. Inzwischen fliege ich fast nur noch, mit Reisetasche und Laptop. Koffer hab ich auch. Was gibt Dir das, interessiert Dich auf Reisen? Menschen vor allem, deshalb interessieren mich an Reisezielen gute Kneipen und Restaurants mehr als Kirchen und Museen. Deshalb gefällt mir Buenos Aires so gut. Wenn Du da einen Abend weggehst und in einem oder zwei Cafés sitzt, hast Du immer eine Handvoll neue Bekannte. Was hat Dich ursprünglich davon zurückgehalten, auf die Reise zugehen? Am Reisen gehindert hat mich höchstens Geldmangel. Das habe ich einige Zeit lang so gelöst, dass ich mit drei Kreditkarten besorgt habe. Immer wenn mein Konto mal 20 Mark im schwarzen Bereich war, bin ich mit Visa, American Express und Diners Club drei Monate nach Südamerika geflogen. Ein empfehlenswerter Dauerzustand ist das aber nicht wirklich. Was war Dein schwierigster Moment auf Reisen und wie hast Du das gelöst? Da muss ich nachdenken, denn was wirklich Bedrohliches ist mir nie passiert. Eine Sache in Nigeria vielleicht. Da ist mir mein Pass gestohlen worden, und bei der deutschen Botschaft in Lagos haben die so eine Arroganz an den Tag gelegt, dass ich gegangen bin. Ich wohnte dort bei einem Freund, der für eine deutsche Firma den Bau eines E-Werks leitete. Da kam immer mal ein Mitarbeiter aus Deutschland angeflogen, und ich hatte damals zwei Pässe, wegen der vielen Reisen. Ich hab dann einen Freund angerufen, bei mir zu Hause meinen anderen Pass zu holen und einem Kollegen meines Freundes zu schicken, der ihn mir mit nach Lagos brachte. Da war natürlich kein Einreise-Stempel drin, und deswegen wollten Sie mich nicht ausreisen lassen. Da standen wir dann in der Schlange beim Einchecken für den Lufthansa-Flug nach Frankfurt, da gab es für jeden Flug nur einen Schalter. Ein heimischer Mitarbeiter meines Freundes begleitete mich, und er redete auf den Grenzpolizisten ein, ohne Luft zu holen. Die Schlange wurde immer länger, nichts ging weiter. Der Polizist schüttelte nur mit dem Kopf, aber mein Begleiter gab nicht auf. Nach langen 50 Minuten – in denen kein anderer Passagier eincheckte – gab der Polizist entnervt auf und drückte seinen Stempel in meinen Pass. Der Flug startete dann mit fast einer Stunde Verspätung. Wird man nicht irgendwann Reisemüde? Was tust Du dagegen? Gleich zwei Fragen! Antwort 1: Ja, ich jedenfalls! Antwort 2: Weniger reisen und dafür länger bleiben. Kurz zur Erklärung: Fliegen nervt mich zusehends mehr. Diese unsinnigen, wichtigtuerischen Sicherheitskontrollen, dann die Sitze immer enger und unbequemer, und immer mehr völlig absurde Schikanen, die sich die Gesellschaften einfallen lassen, als ob es nur noch darum ginge, die Passagiere zum Lemmings-Gehorsam zu erziehen. Früher wurde die Rückenlehne eine Minute vor der Landung hochgeklappt, jetzt kommen sie damit schon eine halbe Stunde vorher in 6.000 Meter Höhe an, als ob das irgendwie wichtig wäre bei den fünf Zentimetern, die sich eine Rückenlehne überhaupt noch bewegt. Was kostet Deine Art zu Reisen im Monat ungefähr? Nach Monaten kann ich das nicht beantworten. Prinzipiell reise ich preiswert. Da ich zeitlich unabhängig bin, kann ich mir preiswerte Flüge aussuchen. In Buenos Aires war ich das letzte Mal für 475 Euro. Ich fliege meistens ins preiswerte Südamerika, da finden Sie erstklassige Hotels für 50 bis 80 Euro. In Paraguay musste ich beim letzten Mal etwas aufs Geld achten, weil die Amis während meines Aufenthalts dort meine Bank plattmachten und deshalb meine Kreditkarte nicht mehr funktionierte. Da war ich dann in einem zwar etwas abgewohnten Hotel, wo es aber an nichts fehlte, für 23 Dollar die Nacht. Wie finanzierst Du das, verdienst Du Dein Geld auch über Internet? Hast du ein Projekt auf Deiner Reise und willst Du es hier vorstellen? Das Projekt habe ich gerade beschrieben. Die Zahl der Deutschen, die weg wollen, steigt rasant, in gleichem Mass, wie alle etablierten Parteien immer mehr zum Feind der Bürger werden und das Leben in Deutschland immer unerträglicher machen. Aber einfach nur von einem Land in ein anderes ziehen, hilft heute nur noch bedingt. Da sind eine ganze Reihe wichtiger Dinge zu beachten, und ein potentieller Auswanderer kann eine Menge Fehler machen. Ich denke, meine Informationen helfen Menschen mit derartigen Plänen, die wichtigsten Fehler zu vermeiden. Ich staune immer wieder, mit welchen Vorstellungen manche Deutsche in ein anderes Land reisen und dort leben wollen. Da ist es kein Wunder, dass viele scheitern und zurückkommen und dann steuersparend von Hartz4 leben. Das muss natürlich nicht sein, wenn sie einige wichtige Dinge beachten. Welche Tipps hast du für Leute, die eine ähnliche (Welt)Reise starten wollen? Sie sollen lieber etwas weniger reisen und dafür lieber länger bleiben, so lernen Sie einen Ort und seine Menschen auch viel besser kennen. Keine Zeit oder kein Geld? Dann schmeissen Sie Ihren Job hin und suchen sich ein ortsunabhängiges Einkommen! Wie das am einfachsten geht, lesen Sie auf meiner Webseite (www.coin-sl.com). Vergessen Sie nie: Der Tag, an dem Sie Ihren Job verlieren, ist Ihr Glückstag!

“Si uno apuesta con la vida de su hijo y pierde, no es culpa”   Daniela y Andrés analizan sus cuñas de radio “favoritas” y les aplican la prueba de la lógica. Así, cuestionan a Diners Club por creerse único, al Banco del Austro por casi rapear y a Roberto por todo lo que implica no querer pintar el cuarto de su hijo. Además viajan en el tiempo, discuten disfraces de Halloween y hablan del hijo de la sobrina de Oscar de la Renta.
