Put on your flower crowns and don your skinniest jeans and join us at the center of the Millennial universe: Coachella 2007!  Adam & Becca meet the personification of the turn of the century hipster entrepreneur, Dov Charney. Sitting atop a pile of v-neck t-shirts ethically made in the USA, Charney was somewhat of a renegade business oddity on wall-street. But for the 20-something dreamers that clamored for the brand's clothing, he was a captivating revolutionary. Their devotion, along with a bevy of young corporate employees, easily exploited under the guise of “a greater purpose,” allowed American Apparel to rapidly expand and IPO in 2007. The stores were everywhere you wanted to be… until they weren't.  Eventually, abuse allegations coupled with financial mismanagement threatened Charney's reign as king of t-shirt mountain. With the walls closing in on him, he spiraled out of control… taking the company he founded with him.  CW: Sexual abuse  Pics on substack Support the pod  Links:  Read Strip Tees: A Memoir of Millennial Los Angeles Watch Big Rad Wolf  The Young Garmentos (and the If Books Could Kill episode on Malcom Gladwell) Meet Your New Boss  Dov Charney's Sleazy Struggle for Control of American Apparel

According to the Jewish Post: Rapper Kanye West has again issued anti semitic statements, this time blaming “Jewish Zionists” for news stories about his ex-wife Kim Kardashian and her then-boyfriend Pete Davidson having sex in front of a fireplace. “It's Jewish Zionists that [are] about that life,” he said on Sunday. “That's telling this Christian woman that has four black children to put that out as a message in the media.” The rapper then mentions Dov Charney, founder of the Los Angeles apparel manufacturing company American Apparel, who is Jewish. According to West, Charney refused to release the rapper's controversial “White Lives Matter” shirt shortly after West published his “Death con 3 on Jewish people” tweet. “It's cause he's Jewish, and this is my exact point that I'm making,” West said following Charney's decision. “Jewish people have owned the Black voice. Whether it's through us wearing the Ralph Lauren shirt, or it's all of us being signed to a record label, or having a Jewish manager, or being signed to a Jewish basketball team, or doing a movie on a Jewish platform like Disney.” The campaign against our brother is real!

Ye also said his “White Lives Matter” t-shirt that was going to be put out by Dov Charney at LA Apparel was canceled because Charney was angry about his “Death Con” tweet. “He ain't releasing the tee, because he's Jewish,” Ye said. “And I'm like, see this is my exact point that I'm making!

American Apparel, the company founded by charismatic weirdo Dov Charney, first filed for bankruptcy protection on October 5th, 2015. It amounted to a fall from grace from just three years earlier when Charney had told ABC news that American apparel would live beyond his own lifetime. What he neglected to mention was that its ongoing life would be as an online only store, no longer making clothes in the USA. In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly explore how Charney's high-minded idea of making clothes ethically went so dramatically wrong; discuss how the brand got rich by using gritty lo-fi sexuality to sell everyday basics; and look into how Charney's cult of personality eventually proved his undoing… Content warning: reference to sex, abuse, pornography Further Reading: • ‘10 Most Controversial American Apparel Ads' (Time Magazine, 2014): https://time.com/2901435/charney-american-apparel-ads/  • ‘American Apparel files for bankruptcy' (The Guardian, 2015): https://www.theguardian.com/business/2015/oct/05/american-apparel-files-for-bankruptcy  • ‘American Apparel CEO talks about the allegations against him' (ABC, 2014): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iShrIY3GN6s Love the show?

Text LEARNERS to 44222 for more... Full show notes at www.LearningLeader.com Twitter/IG: @RyanHawk12    https://twitter.com/RyanHawk12 Ryan Holiday is the best-selling author of more than 10 books including The Obstacle Is The Way, Ego Is The Enemy, and most recently, Courage Is Calling. He's sold millions of copies and his work impacts leaders all over the world. Notes: A philosophy of offense. General James Mattis was once asked by a tv reporter, “what keeps you up at night?” And he said, “I keep people up at night.” Captured his philosophy of offense (a bias for action… People who make it happen) Preparation makes you brave. —- the Army life handbook that was handed out to millions of soldiers in the Second World War. All about preparation. As Epictetus says the goal when we experience adversity is to be able to say, “this is what I've trained for, for this is my discipline.” Never question another man's courage. “It's very easy to judge. It's very hard to know.” Waste not a second questioning another man's courage. Put that scrutiny solely on your own. Be strong and of good courage. We hear in the book of Joshua. William Faulkner said  “be scared. You can't help that. But don't be afraid.” You can't spend all day in deliberation — the story of a Spartan king who was marching across Greece. As he entered each new country, he sent envoys to ask whether he should be prepared to treat them as friends or enemies. Most of the nations decided quickly and chose friendship. But one king wanted to think about his options. So he thought and thought and thought until it was chosen for him. “Let him consider it then,” the frustrated Spartan General said as he fixed his jaw. “Which we March on.” Even if you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice. You are voting to let them decide. The power of poise — in the year 175, Marcus Aurelius was betrayed by his general Avidius Cassius in an attempted coup. He could have been scared. He could have been furious. He could have exploded. But this would not happen. He said, “the nearer a man is to a calm mind, the closer he is to strength.” Ernest Shackleton — Arctic expedition got stuck in the ice. His motto —fortitudine vincimus — By endurance we conquer The courage to care — General Mattis said “cynicism is cowardice, it takes courage to care.” Only the brave believe, especially when everyone else is full of doubt. the story of Theodore Roosevelt the biographer Herman Hagedorn wrote “is the story of a small boy who read about great men and decided he wanted to be like them.” Ryan shared a personal story about his experience working for American Apparel and his relationship with founder/CEO, Dov Charney. He was asked to do something immoral and he declined... But, he didn't stop Dov from doing it. "It doesn't age well to just be scared in the moment. All that's left is what you didn't do." When you earn some power or develop a platform, how will you use it? When Lyndon Johnson became President, he said, "What the hell is the presidency for if not to do big things?" Consistency -- How does Ryan produce so much work (publishing lots of books) on a consistent basis? You have to show up every day. Tackle the smallest component part of the project for that day. Do what's in front of you. Why does Ryan work out every day? "I like to think, 'who's in charge?' I'm in charge." Excellence = All leaders are readers Curiosity is a must Desire for knowledge Self-discipline An element of service - it's not just about you How does Ryan define success? Autonomy. "The power of my own life, who I spend time with, and what I'm doing. I don't want to be a slave to the system."

Catalyzed by the allegations against American Apparel’s Dov Charney, playwright Peiffer began to investigate the stories of women and the milestones in the sexual maturation of girls in America that can lead to a fraught and vulnerable relationship to one’s own sexuality. Peiffer put the patriarchy, rape culture, sexism, misogyny, and racism on trial in her professional debut work. What does healthy sexual development look like? How can femmes claim (or reclaim) their own sexuality? Is it possible to shed the culturally imposed shame and guilt and adopt an outlook of pleasure? What should effective sex education teach and when? What sexual stereotypes do we impose upon different communities, be it Black, Latinx, Asian, and how do we counter them?

What should effective sex education teach and when? What sexual stereotypes do we impose upon different communities, be it Black, Latinx, Asian, and how do we counter them? What are the consequences of teaching abstinence-only, medically inaccurate, or emotionally devoid sex ed?

Izabella Pintarich another regular listener with Solid Stitch Embroidery was in one of Aaron's seminars in Atlantic City. 200 Niche Markets (or as many as we can talk about in one hour!) What is a niche market? This is a narrowly focused slice of the market that you know and understand intimately, and have the potential of owning this market. And of course, the potential of expanding this market ever wider and ever wider. Compared to the shotgun approach, everyone is my customer, this is laser focus with the potential of reaching everyone involved in that focused market. The purpose of this conversation. We're not necessarily suggesting you jot down a niche and build your business around it. If you love an idea, by all means, go for it. But we're attempting to get your creative juices flowing to create your own niche in the marketplace. And if one or more of our ideas helps you to match up a personal passion with your business, all the better. Pillow Cases as a product line - Sometimes it's not just a niche market but a niche product category as well. East Coast printer who prints anniversary, just married and a variety of other pillow cases through their website. This is best suited to DTG printing. Hot Air Ballooning - they need jackets, it's cold up there. They love lots of colors and big designs! (Tweet from Erich Campbell) Bachelor/Bachelorette Parties - Suggested in one of my Niche Market seminars. If you've ever been to Vegas, you've seen these shirts. Contact wedding and party planners and offer to do shirts for bachelor/bachelorette party, wedding party, etc., paying a commission to the party planner. Holiday Socks - I was just talking last week with a decorator who sells very ornate decorated socks on the internet. Her niche? Socks for all the major holidays. Aaron, since you only wear sublimation socks you have to appreciate this! Ice Cream and Whale Watching - The entrepreneur spirit said, “We should put those whale watching pictures on t-shirts while they eat their ice cream treats!” What should be our first thought in almost every situation? “I should do shirts!” Marijuana Dispensaries - Suggested also in a seminar, a Colorado ASI dealer said she's focused on t-shirts being sold at the legal dispensaries.

The VICE Podcast is a weekly discussion which delves inside the minds of some of the most interesting, creative, and bizarre people we know. This week we sit down with American Apparel founder and Chief Executive Officer Dov Charney, who describes how he got his start in the clothing business and where he believes the industry should go next. Charney offers his perspective on the recent collapse of the Rana Plaza manufacturing facility in Bangladesh, which took the lives of over 1100 people. He calls for an international minimum wage to curb the exploitation of workers in the developing world, and he urges consumers to take more responsibility for the impact their purchasing decisions have on workers around the world.

Michael Covel talks to Ryan Holiday, director of marketing for American Apparel; media strategist for Tucker Max, Dov Charney, and others; and author of the new book "Trust Me, I'm Lying: Confessions of a Media Manipulator". If you're in business, if you're an entrepreneur, if you're someone that needs to communicate with the public, or if you're anybody that has a message - Holiday's book has some important lessons for you. Holiday discusses the hard truths behind the media today: the blog-online media cycle not only drives the offline cycle, but determines and directs culture itself. As Holiday notes, a famous journalist once said in the early 1900's: "America is a country governed by public opinion, and public opinion is governed by newspapers. Isn't it critical that we understand what governs newspapers?" Today, newspapers have been replaced by the internet, blogs, and online media - and the internet rules over us all. It's integral that we understand what governs us in a world where page views drive everything. Holiday shares several stories that illuminate the truth behind the media today: the presidential candidacy of Tim Pawlenty, how Andrew Breitbart was able to exploit the system; and how Holiday was able to manufacture a fake controversy and jumpstart an ad-campaign he was working on - only to create real controversy along the way. Covel and Holiday also discuss the media food chain; what goes into media manipulation; the lie of "if you're doing something great, it will be heard"; gatekeepers in the media; how blogs are our digital bloodsport; why being inaccurate and inflammatory gets more page views; and how we don't seek honesty or reality.
