EXCLUSIVE NordVPN Deal ➼ https://nordvpn.com/efc Try it risk-free now with a 30-day money-back guarantee After weeks of speculation and a major injury blow to Jack Grealish, Everton finally dipped into the market to secure the signing of highly-rated Chelsea winger Tyrique George.

Wolfie takes a look at the latest rumours as the January transfer window gets close! For Exclusive Content Join FFTV Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/ForestFanTV With the January transfer window just around the corner, the Forest rumour mill is shifting into overdrive! Sean Dyche is preparing for his first winter market at the City Ground, and the headlines are being dominated by a potential reunion with Everton's Dwight McNeil. Wolfie breaks down the latest reports suggesting Dyche wants to offer his former Burnley and Everton winger a fresh start in Garibaldi red. Is McNeil the clinical, hardworking wide man we need to bolster our attack, or should we be looking elsewhere for that creative spark? It's not just about the "ins," as we also look at the potential outgoings that could shake up the squad. Rumours are circulating that Taiwo Awoniyi could be heading for the exit door as the club looks to balance the books and reshape the front line. We discuss whether letting Taiwo go would be a massive mistake or if it's the right time to move on and reinvest in a different profile of striker. With Brighton's Jack Hinshelwood also reportedly on Dyche's radar, there's plenty of movement to discuss as we head into the new year. We want to hear your thoughts on today's transfer news—would you welcome Dwight McNeil at the City Ground, and how would you feel about seeing Awoniyi move on? Jump into the comments and let us know your ideal January business to ensure we keep pushing up that Premier League table!

What does it take to market movies that shape culture—and to lead with integrity when the stakes are highest? In this Best Of Trailer Geeks & Teaser Gods episode, Corey Nathan revisits his powerful conversation with Dwight Caines, President of Domestic Marketing at Universal Pictures and one of the most respected voices in modern film marketing. One of our "best of's" since we brought this program back, this episode remains as relevant—and resonant—as ever. Dwight reflects on a career spanning Sony Pictures and Universal, working on iconic franchises including Spider-Man, James Bond, Oppenheimer, and The Super Mario Bros. Movie. But this conversation goes far beyond campaigns and box office numbers. Dwight opens up about leadership, mentorship, diversity and inclusion, the responsibility of storytellers, and what it means to be a steady presence in moments of industry—and societal—turbulence. It's a masterclass in how great marketing starts with understanding people. Whether you're a trailer creative, studio exec, marketer, or emerging storyteller, this episode is a reminder that how you lead matters just as much as what you ship. Key Takeaways Story Starts With Audience Dwight explains why every campaign begins with a deep understanding of who the movie is for—and what emotional response it needs to evoke to get audiences off the couch and into theaters. From Data to Instinct With roots in market research, Dwight shares how the best campaigns balance data with gut, and why "research be damned" can sometimes be the bravest—and smartest—call. Digital Before It Was Cool As an early digital pioneer at Sony, Dwight recounts building online communities around films like Spider-Man long before digital marketing was standard practice. Leadership in Crisis Dwight reflects on moments when the industry—and the country—felt unsteady, and why authenticity, calm, and moral clarity are essential leadership traits. Mentorship & Representation From teaching at Syracuse and UCLA to shaping DEI initiatives at Universal and the Academy, Dwight makes the case that representation isn't performative—it's foundational to better work and better culture. Notable Quotes "If you see me running for the emergency exit, then trouble's coming. Otherwise, take it as a good sign." "Marketing is about evoking emotion. If you don't know what you want people to feel, the campaign won't land." "If you see it, you can be it. I didn't see myself in front of the classroom—so I decided to become that person." "Diversity isn't invitation. It's allowing people to show up authentically and be heard."

On this week's Modern Retail Podcast, hosts Gabriela Barkho and Melissa Daniels are joined by reporter Mitchell Parton to discuss the themes and trends that dominated retail in 2025. The year certainly didn't play out the way that many in the retail industry were initially expecting, as tariffs upended many companies' carefully laid plans for the year. Still, there were pockets of hope. Even though there weren't as many IPOs this year as some in the industry hoped there would be, there were still some promising acquisitions, like Church & Dwight buying hand sanitizer brand Touchland, and Harry's parent company Mammoth Brands snapping up diaper brand Coterie. Plus, consumers were still willing to turn out and spend -- even for hot trends and products that seemingly came out of nowhere, like Labubus. The episode gets into: A look back at how the Modern Retail Podcast team did with its 2025 predictions at the start of the year, involving M&A, TikTok Shop and tariffs. Why private labels dominated this year. Why 2025 was an eventful year for big-box retail, as companies like Costco, Walmart and Target had to navigate big changes. How the biggest buzzword of the year, AI, shaped retail in 2025.

Back in April 2023, you might remember that I uploaded a piece of content titled something like “The Clorox Company should divest its dietary supplement brand portfolio.” It aimed to increase recognition that a collection of supplement brands was buried within The Clorox Company, to clarify the holistic strategic reasoning behind why Clorox spent nearly $1 billion acquiring these dietary supplement brands last decade, and to describe (maybe not so surprisingly) how these dietary supplement brands mostly struggled under Clorox's ownership. And despite all that previous silly M&A justification rhetoric around how The Clorox Company had been a “health and wellness company” for over 100 years, the primary driver behind divestment was an integrated strategic plan that sought to achieve profitable growth acceleration through sharpening its focus on core household care brands. So, in the end…Clorox determined that the dietary supplement business was not aligned with its long-term vision. Accordingly, it took about 18 months after my original content, but that “pure rumor and speculation” turned into The Clorox Company selling its dietary supplements business (in its entirety) including the Natural Vitality, NeoCell, Rainbow Light, and RenewLife brands, relevant intellectual property, and the company's manufacturing and distribution facilities, to Piping Rock Health Products. But let me introduce you to the pure-play business that acquired these assets from The Clorox Company…because (I'd guess) despite its heritage rooted in over a half-century of experience in the supplement industry, many don't recognize the name Piping Rock Health Products. In 1971, the family's journey began with Arthur Rudolph, a pioneering figure in manufacturing vitamins. Following in his father's footsteps, Scott teamed up with him to form Nature's Bounty…which eventually became the world's largest vitamin manufacturer (marked by private equity firm The Carlyle Group acquiring the company for approximately $4 billion in 2010). A year later, joined by Scott's son Michael, the Rudolph family took that achievement to the next level by forming Piping Rock Health Products…a vertically integrated multi-format dietary supplement brand manufacturer, distributor, marketer, and retailer. Before acquiring RenewLife, Natural Vitality, NeoCell, and Rainbow Light from The Clorox Company, it internally developed Nature's Truth…a flagship brand modeled after Nature's Bounty that now generates around $300 million annually. Also, beyond offering a few other smaller brands…Piping Rock does a lot of private label contract manufacturing for leading retailers. So, irrespective of knowing every Clorox M&A financial detail…the acquisition still signals an upsized level of ambition for Piping Rock, right? But this story doesn't stop there…as Piping Rock continues to expand its presence in dietary supplements by “remixing” last year's M&A activity with The Clorox Company. Similarly, targeting a multibillion-dollar CPG conglomerate (with an identity crisis), it was recently announced that Church & Dwight (after concluding its strategic review) signed a definitive agreement to sell the VitaFusion and L'il Critters dietary supplement brands to Piping Rock. In closing, I'd expect Piping Rock to continue taking advantage of a growing trend of Big CPG divesting their dietary supplement brands, as this market momentum creates new opportunities for pure-play businesses to scale through buying established, reputable brands.

Heartbroken Michael has left Holly in Nashua, Jim and Pam are long distance as Pam studies art in New York and Angela Martin plans her wedding with Andy despite having a secret affair with Dwight. Not to mention Kelly has sabotaged customer surveys to reflect poorly on Jim and Dwight. The ladies remember where they were when shooting this episode, Angela points out a Dwight talking head that had 32 candy bag alts and with the help of Rich Sommer, Jenna brings to life the original scene that was ultimately rewritten where Alex confesses his love for Pam. So no need to be smudge and arrogant, just enjoy this episode!
