Thirteen months have gone by since Sassy crowned Rinnan its first Sassiest Girl In America, so it's time to pick a new one from a notably smaller field of finalists. Did we agree with the judges' choice? (Would we bring it up here if we did?) Catherine reports on a woman who was divorced before she was old enough to vote. Kim France makes her debut with a confusing piece on "dude defects." Karen tries her hand at fiction again. All this, plus What He Said about fantasy women, an It Happened To Me that's more It Happened To Dad, a Stuff You Wrote that inspires musical interpretation, and much much more! QUICK LINKS

In episode 293, Kestrel welcomes Jenna Hanson and Jon Hershman, the cofounders of Revival Eyewear, to the show. Offering an extensive collection of deadstock vintage glasses and sunglasses, Revival Eyewear is dedicated to reminding us that it's possible for old things to be elevated in both quality and style.  “I fell in love with the glasses and the idea that these were vintage but brand new. I had never in my life heard of that concept — deadstock, new old stock. It was so fascinating to me. At Jon's shop in PB, I would take them out of their cases and just be like — what is this? This is a YSL from the 1970s, it has its original packaging, I can't believe this exists.” -Jenna Another niche (yet massive) realm of the fashion industry that we rarely discuss is the GLASSES industry. I'm talking sunglasses and eyeglasses – which I would say are a very integral part of the world of fashion and style. This week's guests started a company where they sell unworn deadstock frames from the ‘60s to the ‘00s. If they were made so long ago, how were they never worn? Where have they been sitting, waiting to find a face to wear them? Well, we get into that. Also, we get into the mud about the powerful Italian conglomerate that owns SO MANY PIECES of the eyewear industry – from insurance companies to eyewear brands to manufacturing to retail eyewear stores. It's amazing the stronghold this megacompany has on today's eyewear industry. Just as we talk about with the fast fashion industry, the eyewear industry has lost much of its quality luster. We often refer to the planned obsolescence of our era, and how — “They just don't make them like they used to.” Well, my guests actually have the knowledge to articulate what makes vintage glasses so different from their current counterparts. What has changed in how they're made today, and what aspects of craftsmanship made them so elevated back n the day? We also touch on the massive waste that the glasses industry is generating, considering the materiality and disposable approach to manufacturing them today. It's wild to think that the styles made today may never be considered *deadstock* or deemed worthy to resell.  Quotes & links from the conversation: “Meet the Four-Eyed, Eight-Tentacled Monopoly That is Making Your Glasses So Expensive”, article in Forbes, that explores some of the power of Luxottica “Eyeglass Start-Up Ready to Battle Industry Titan, Sets Sights on Online Growth”, article in Yahoo Finance, that explores some of the power of Luxottica “We went to a conference last year called Vision Expo, and it was literally just Luxottica everywhere — so they own lenses, they own the lens manufacturer, they own the frame, they own the insurance, they own the places to sell the glasses. I don't know how it gets any more monopoly than that. They own LensCrafters, Sunglass Hut, Target Optical, Pearl Vision, they own the big online store EyeBuyDirect, they own the insurance company EyeMed, and then, just about all of the brands that are inside of a LensCrafters or Sunglass Hut like RayBan, Oakley, Persol, Oliver Peoples - everything basically that you can find inside those stores, they also own those brands.” -Jenna & Jon (20:58) Revival Eyewear Follow Revival Eyewear on Instagram >

In today's episode, Steve sits down with James Merk, Brand Director of EyeBuyDirect.

This week Kati shares her adventures on Frio River for a bachelorette party, and Sean laments about not having been to a perfect swimming hole. They both decide that they love lakes and water, and hate mosquitos. Kati also talks about finally getting rid of her Melasma using a product called Musely, and Sean tries on his new glasses from Eye Buy Direct. They read letters from audience members sharing about strange weddings, halloween traumas and parades, ways you can make an olympian, searching for treasure, and how scary needles can be. We all agree that they should never show them to you before inserting them, and The Right Honorable David REDACTED writes in about the state of the pogo stick, and Tom cracks us up with a story about teen mayhem. They wrap things up with a little comb over talk, and other strange hair styles. Enjoy! Playing catchup with OTDM, TikTok youth are slagging on adults hairstyles The Bachelorette Party at Frio River.

The eyeglasses industry is very competitive, but EyeBuyDirect is focused on cornering the market via affordability. The EssilorLuxotica-owned company has been around since 2005 and its primary focus has been on value: a pair of frames from EyeBuyDirect can be as cheap as $6. This week on the Modern Retail Podcast, CEO Sunny Jiang spoke about the company's trajectory and how she's been steering the ship. Jiang has been at EyeBuyDirect for 15 years -- she first took a job there when she was fresh out of university as a finance controller. She's risen the ranks ever since, going from operations director to general manager and then ultimately becoming CEO in 2017. "Since I've become CEO the company has grown nearly 300%," she said. EyeBuyDirect was one of the first online-only glasses players. Though Zenni is a few years older, Warby Parker is much younger. And, according to Jiang, the way the company is able to sell glasses so cheaply is because of its business model. "we manage everything from the beginning to the end," she said. This includes manufacturing, logistics, even returns. "This allows us to have the ability or possibility to forward a lot of profitability directly to customers." When EyeBuyDirect first launched, there were hardly any digital competitors out there. Now, the playing field is a lot more intense, thanks to leaders like Warby Parker and America's Best. Over the last two years specifically, Jiang said that a number of competitors have also been upping their digital games. Still, she's confident that the company can continue to grow. According to her own competitive analysis, the top three or four eyeglass players only account for about half of the market. To her, that means she can continue taking market share and finding new customers. To do that, EyeBuyDirect recently underwent a rebrand, upgrading the look of the website and the company's marketing materials -- including its logo, fonts and overall imagery. On the program, Jiang described the entire process. "One of the reasons why we were thinking to rebrand is that we found the brand or the company didn't have a clear purpose," she said. With that done, Jiang is currently crafting a five-year plan for EyeBuyDirect's growth. This means boosting its customer service options and also trying to up its delivery speed. "The category will continue to grow, and I will make sure that EyeBuyDirect will beat the benchmarks."

In this episode of the Digital Marketing Master podcast, Jim Merk explains the power behind brand marketing and the appeals that it possesses when it comes to providing quality eye wear to a vast range of age demographics.

Do you ever worry that you are wasting your life? I definitely did. In fact, I wrote that in my journal many years ago when I was in the middle of the diet-binge roller coaster ride. I woke up every day thinking about food, my body, and what I would eat that day to “be healthy”The notebooks I had filled with calories and points could fill up a spare bedroomSocial events and vacations immediately prompted the thought “they will notice I gained weight” or “I need to lose weight by then”Deep down I knew I wasn't living life the way I wanted to, but I didn't know how to pull myself out of it. If this is you, I want you to imagine what it would feel like to feel empowered in your body and proud of your choices on a consistent basis. I promise you, it isn't too late. Dieting steals our motivation. It makes us ineffective. It keeps us spinning our wheels in a system that was never built to work.

Look, I know how much it hurts to live a life worrying you are missing out, not stepping into the person you were truly meant to be, vibrant, passionate, curious, vulnerable, and brave. You can listen to the podcast all day, but taking that first step, putting pen the paper (or typing on your phone) is required for true lasing change. It's time to start living my friend.

Sunny Jiang started at then startup EyeBuyDirect right out of university as a financial controller. Like many of her coworkers at the online eyewear retailer, she has remained with the company almost 15 years later. Unlike many of her coworkers, after many successes, she made her way from finance controller to leading the entire company as CEO and President in 2017. Sunny attributes her success leading EyeBuyDirect and the over three million customers they serve to her dedication to leading by example, and it's clear after listening to the story of her climb to CEO that she's done a tremendous job of that. In this podcast, Anne Mezzenga and Sunny Jiang discuss Sunny's future plans for EyeBuyDirect as she takes the brand into new geographies and expands their online presence of white label and designer brands into a marketplace of 3rd party brands to meet the evolving needs of their customers. Long-time listeners know you'll have to stay to the end to find out who attends Sunny's very own concert and this one has some new names you'll definitely want to add to your playlist after listening.

A word about Black Lives Matter, some Youtube Cooking Channels, a tale of Eyeglass Repair Failure, Why Liquid Smoke SUCKS, and not being too proud to beg.#BLM, #YouTube, #EyeBuyDirect.com, #LiquidSmoke,

In this episode, Chris and Andre are happy to be talking about sports even if its focused on the NFL's apology and Drew Brees saying stupid things, dive into politics to chat about the evolving response to police violence across the country and debate where the economy is headed, and wrap things up with a conversation about food. (00:00:24) Intros - The guys have their longest and most rambling introduction yet where Chris is very proud of himself for finally doing his job and getting some old episodes edited, Andre names the episode, the guys talk about how “real” their podcast is and how truly “dope” Sam Jackson is. Chris plugs EyeBuyDirect.com for affordable glasses (Reminder: we do not get paid for these plugs, we legitimately like the products we suggest)! (00:15:07) Sports - Andre was getting excited at the potential for sports seasons in 2020, but Roger Goodell and Drew Brees ruined that for him, the guys discuss the FSU player's walk-out as the power people have to push for change, Andre explains his shock to find out Bubba Wallace is black. (00:26:05) Politics - Andre explains why it's so important to listen and avoid the “us versus them” mentality, the guys talk about their political histories, Andre points to the lack of opportunities and options in inner city neighborhoods, Chris hopes the mix of protest crowds will get more people involved, the guys discuss Donald Trump's continued political gaffes and how republican politicians in Washington have failed to keep him in check, Andre shares his story of a brush with the Secret Service. (00:42:11) Social Media - For once, the guys stop bashing social media and start bashing the way people have come to use it, then discuss their issues with modern journalism and the potential for user-generated (open-source) news content. (00:51:08) Politics…again? - The guys discuss Trump's attack on Colin Powell and more major political snafus, Chris points to Trump's lack of personal accountability as the reason nothing “sticks” to him and Andre brings up his recent attacks on President George W. Bush. The guys spend some time discussing calls to “Defund the Police” and the way it's portrayed in the media, the guys talk about Camden, New Jersey as the closest example for a reformed police, the guys discuss their dislike for unions and their low expectations for corporate America to follow through on any of its recent promises for social change. The guys close out the political discussion by asking why North Carolina and other southern states have historically elected democratic governors and mayors but have republican representation in Congress? (01:38:25) Cooking - The guys discuss how much better the Impossible Burger is compared to the Beyond Burger, Chris shares a recent bad experience ordering burgers from Red Robins, Andre talks about how much it warmed his heart to see his wife make meals for his son, Chris talks about how he takes over his mom's kitchen when he goes to visit her, and the guys make plans to grab lunch soon! (01:45:55) That's a wrap! - The guys want to thank everyone who continues to tune in to their ramblings and Andre outlines the three things we all can do to make a difference. The guys be back soon with a brand new episode so don't go too far!

We kicked off this episode on FB and IG and the response was fantastic.  We started off with a few questions: What's your morning routine?, Where are you racing this weekend? DD shoe is a yes or a no go for you? Coffee Wars DD, 5Bucks , McDonalds of BK 50cent ?  What's on your feet?  and what type of bike do you ride and have you tried that new Beyond Meat burger?  As the calls started coming in from around country is was hard for me to contain my enthusiasm.  We covered the essentials of getting fitted for a bike with Khadijah Diggs who is a the USA Triathlon Team, which answered Will's from Bklyn question about bikes.  Felicia recently started riding Peloton bikes after recovering from an injury, she has run all 50 States and will be in NYC for Peloton Home Invasion in May.  Felicia shared her weight losing tips from her friend and triathlon coach dd_fitspiration on IG.  I was so tempted to say bye Felicia when we got off the phone. We talked with out sole brothers Chip and Juan about the new DD Saucony Kinvara.  Then we rounded out the hour with ways in which you can get your "Black Card" with Angela.   Richard Fuller is our Unicorn of the Day,  I had the pleasure of meeting Richard and during our conversation it was obvious to me that he's passion about the work that he does at his Global Pollution nonprofit Pure Earth. At the start of the show I talked about a problem I was having with my glasses, I hit the company up in the DM on IG and they assured me someone from their customer service department would reach out to me a day went by and I didn't hear from them and as fate would have it as we were wrapping up the show EyebuyDirect called.  Y'all already know how I strongly I feel about service.
