Podcasts about Factory

This segment on the Retail Fast Five podcast, sponsored by the A&M Consumer and Retail Group, Simbe, Mirakl, Infios, Clear Demand, and Ocampo Capital, breaks down Target's factory direct shipping test. Target explores factory direct shipping similar to Temu and Shein's model for apparel and home goods. Chris loves the defensive move and believes Target's brand credibility can win, while Anne questions if Target has lost its design edge and worries about competing on price against Walmart and Amazon.

Join Jim and Greg's substitute, Craig Collins as they prepare for the Independence Day holiday with this all-California edition of 3 Martini Lunch. Today, they are pleased to see a recent poll suggesting that Kamala Harris is not an intimidating Democratic nominee in the 2026 governor's race, they are amused by LA Mayor, Karen Bass's refusal to meet with ICE agents while telling them to go home, and they are wishing to reenact action films with California's recent firework factory explosion. First, they speculate about a recent poll which asked people if they would vote for Kamala Harris if they had a choice between her and a generic Republican candidate. Shockingly for Kamala and for California, Jim notes 41-percent would vote for her while 39-percent would vote Republican with the other 20-percent being undecided or not voting. Jim and Craig are unsure if Kamala will even choose to run, though. Next, Jim and Craig wonder where Bass wants ICE to go when she refuses to meet with them and tells them to go home. Aren't they already home? Recent Democratic commentary about ICE is laced with insurrectionist language, but Jim calls Bass's bluff arguing she is "talking big" but will not cross ICE when it comes down to it. Last, they are ecstatic about the recent explosion of a fireworks factory -- in YOLO, California of all places. Because nobody was hurt, they joke that every building demolition ought to involve fireworks. Jim and Craig find it reminiscent to a scene from The Naked Gun, and both wish they could have been there to witness it. Visit our spectacular sponsors: No missed calls, no missed customers with OpenPhone.

What started off as a dream job, slowly revealed itself to be a nightmare. Josh Farenello moved to southern India to oversee a shrimp-processing plant, but it soon dawned on him that he'd been really been hired as an American face to “whitewash” a forced-labour factory. The largely female employees were effectively trapped on the compound, routinely underpaid, and forced to live in inhumane, unsanitary conditions. Over several months, Josh meticulously gathered evidence that he brought to the Outlaw Ocean team for this exclusive exposé.Episode highlights:Processing seafood is a race against the clock to prevent spoilage, so the Choice Canning plant in Amalapuram runs more or less 24/7. There's also not a lot of automation in shrimp processing, so this means that the factory relies on an enormous amount of labour to deliver 40 shipping containers full of packaged shrimp — every single day. Josh starts to poke around the factory, to understand the layers of how such a high volume/low cost product is even possible. He finds migrant workers from India's lowest castes living in deplorable conditions — like shared beds with bedbug-infested mattresses — as well as downright dangerous conditions, like a secret dorm above the plants' ammonia compressors. He also realized there are hundreds more people living on site than the paperwork accounts for, and they cannot freely leave.The discrepancy continues between what Josh has witnessed and what's officially tracked on paper. Another place that shows up is in shrimp that have been treated with antibiotics. Josh says “Oscar” shrimp (a euphemism for antibiotics) have been shipped to markets where their use is illegal, like the U.S. He makes the case you won't find in official documents.

RHLSTP #568 - The Most Influential Comedian, That You're Probably Never Seen - Richard travels to St Neots to visit a man who might claim to have invented alternative comedy (though he doesn't) John Dowie. With comedian Dave Cohen in Dictionary Corner providing some historical detail Rich and John chat about John's comedy influences, how he managed to do theatrical comedy on his own when no one else was really doing that, his part (or not) in the explosion of comedy in the 80s, the podcast with Tony Allen that never was (largely due to the lack of the internet), recording with Factory records, working with Neil Innes, John's frustration with modern life, doing a show with Victoria Wood, the secret reason he gave up stand up (which may remain a secret) the original Dogman and whether he feels he gets the credit he deserves or whether he thinks he deserves any credit.SUPPORT THE SHOW!Watch our TWITCH CHANNELSee extra content at our WEBSITE Hosted on Acast.

Tu rêves de te lancer dans la création de bougies artisanales, mais tu ne sais pas combien ça peut coûter en investissement ? Quel budget prévoir ou quel matériel il te faut vraiment ?

En este episodio, Mario Mengoni nos lleva a la Nueva York de fines de los '70 para formar parte de la historia detrás del retrato que ANDY WARHOL le hizo a FARRAH FAWCETT, pasando por Studio 54, The Factory, y un juicio que cruzó arte, amor y legado, mientras escuchamos a BLONDIE con su revolucionario “Rapture”, primer tema con rap en alcanzar el N°1 en EE.UU. El regreso de AFRO MEDUSA, tras 25 años, con el sensual y vibrante track “Amor”. Luego viajamos a Francia con el remix de YUKSEK del clásico “Week-end à Rome” de ETIENNE DAHO. En el corazón del programa, una historia atrapante: la creación de “Him” de RUPERT HOLMES, una joya del soft rock con suspenso, deseo y dudas en cada acorde. Desde Italia, BANDA MAJE nos saluda con cariño y groove, antes de sumergirnos en el universo retro-erótico de 1-900, con “Breakin' 84” remixado por VIBES4YOURSOUL. El “discollage” con DURAN DURAN por SCOTT WOZNIAK; MOON BOOTS & LYRIC JONES; ZIWY FUNK & TALIWA y HERITAGE LISTED. Y el cierre llega con WHIRLWIND D, remixado por SMOOVE con scratch, groove y flow británico para bajar el telón.

Factory tours commonly come to mind for tourists looking to experience local landmarks. Boeing, Jelly Belly and Louisville Slugger all offer popular behind-the-scenes outings. But it's doubtful any of those are as popular as what Xiaomi is offering in China.The consumer electronics giant has recently broken into the automotive space. It currently offers the SU7 full-size sedan and it's working on the YU7 mid-size. It sold just 135,000 vehicles in 2024, though it expects to more than double that this year. But its factory tours have already become so popular that Xiaomi had to introduce a lottery.

When God decides to record his first metal album, he will be disappointed to remember that Obliveon already recorded its masterpiece, Nemesis, in the Year of Our Lord, 1993. On its latest episode, Radical Research conducts a much-belated investigation of the first two albums by Montreal's most underrated sons, Obliveon. In the early '90s, the band treated a small-but-fanatical audience to highly-advanced, cutting edge, cosmic death thrash in the forms of 1990's From This Day Forward and the aforementioned Nemesis. Still unsung after all these years, Radical Research is here to set the record straight and shed light on one of underground metal's true greats. Note I: The “pointless, ridiculous 7 inch" Hunter mentions in this episode is this one, a Coroner covers split between his band, Canvas Solaris, and our phurry phriends phrom Pharaoh: https://www.discogs.com/release/2586288-Pharaoh-6-Canvas-Solaris-Tribute-To-Coroner Note II: Speaking of covers: Jeff mentions Agoraphobic Nosebleed's cover of Voivod's “Forgotten in Space.” He says the cover if about 6 minutes long, but it's actually a shorter 3:48. Don't trust Jeff on ANYTHING he says about Voivod… Note III: The Radical Research Patreon page is now set up and ready for your patronage. We are offering tiered subscription levels for those who want a set-it-and-forget-it donation option. As ever, if you choose to support us, we are humbled and grateful! patreon.com/RadicalResearchPodcast Note IV: All past Radical Research episodes can be found here, where you can also find Jeff's Peter Steele and Fates Warning books, Hunter's Deserts of Hex Volume 2…and more to come soon!

This podcast is conceived and conducted by Jeff Wagner and Hunter Ginn. Though we consume music in a variety of ways, we give particular privilege to the immersive, full-album listening experience.

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1078: Today we're talking stormy shareholder meetings at Nissan, the EV factory tours drawing crowds in China, and the Gen Z men getting caught outsourcing their work to AI.Show Notes with links:Nissan's new CEO Ivan Espinosa faced intense scrutiny from investors at his first annual shareholders' meeting as he moves forward with a bold restructuring plan and ends Renault's board influence.Espinosa replaces ousted CEO Makoto Uchida, part of a March leadership overhaul aimed at reviving a struggling Nissan.Longtime partner Renault lost direct influence as its board reps, including Chairman Jean-Dominique Senard, were removed—marking a clear shift toward Nissan independence.Shareholders grilled Espinosa on governance, executive pay, and the automaker's U.S. and Japan strategy.Nissan plans to cut 20,000 jobs, shut 7 factories, and save ¥500B ($3.46B) by March 2028.It projects a ¥200B ($1.38B) Q1 loss, including ¥450B ($3B) in expected U.S. tariff hits.One attendee described the Q&A as “stormy,” saying Espinosa was “smooth and fluent… but equivocated without substance.”EV factory tours have become a cultural sensation in China, with tens of thousands scrambling each month for a glimpse behind the robotic curtain of brands like Xiaomi and Nio.Xiaomi Auto's factory receives over 27,000 applications per night for limited tour slots, offering racetrack test drives and now souvenirs.Nio drew 130,000 visitors last year; several other automakers are jumping on board.What began as three monthly tours at Xiaomi has expanded to weekday and weekend offerings for over 1,100 visitors.Visitors describe vast facilities with “only a handful of workers” as robots handle most of the labor.“It offers a chance to not only see the production line up close, but also experience the human side of the brand,” said analyst Freya Zhang.A new survey reveals that while AI boosts Gen Z productivity, a surprising number—especially men—are bending the rules by passing off AI work as their own.40% of Gen Z men admitted to submitting AI-generated work as their own; only 20% of women did the same.Nearly 1 in 3 Gen Z workers have knowingly broken company policy using AI and 30% say they've created fake work with AI to appear more productive.42% of Gen Z men say they worry AI could replace them at work—compared to just 33% of women.23% of men said they couldn't do their job without AI; only 14% of women felt that way.Eva Chan, career expert at Resume Genius, “The concern is workers start outsourcing not just tasks, but their judgment, confidence, and even their voice.”Join Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

Minister Patrick O'Donovan TD was joined by Vanessa Hartley, Head of Google Ireland to celebrate the official opening of The Factory, a dedicated community arts and culture space located at Bolands Mills, the new urban quarter made possible by Google. Designed as a home for creativity, collaboration, and community engagement, The Factory reaffirms Google's long-standing commitment to its local community. Long a landmark on Dublin's cultural map, The Factory has hosted legendary names like The Bolshoi Ballet, U2, and David Bowie, who have spent time here, performing, recording or rehearsing. The Factory has also nurtured some of Ireland's most talented actors and film-makers. Paying homage to its rich history, the space has been restored by Google in consultation with multiple local community groups across the arts and creative industries including the National Performance Arts School, Neurodiversity Irishtown, Ringsend & Pearse Street (NIRP), RMS Music, the Dublin 4 Dance Academy, St Andrews Resource Centre, Ringsend Community Services Forum, Education Task Force and This City Works. Vanessa Hartley, Head of Google Ireland said: "For 22 years, Google has been proud to call Ireland home to our EMEA headquarters. What began with just five employees in a shared office has grown into a thriving team of over 5,000 people around Barrow Street. But our presence here has always been about more than just offices - it's about being a supportive part of the local community. "With the opening of The Factory, we're creating a revitalised space for arts, culture, and creativity - a space for people to come together, express themselves, and nurture the talent of the Dublin Docklands. This is just one part of our commitment to being an active, helpful neighbour, and we're extremely grateful to all those who helped bring this vision to life." The Factory is located at the site of the historic Bolands flour mills which was acquired by Google in 2018. Now complete, the restoration of the 150-year-old mill and surrounding site includes over 50,000 square feet of newly landscaped outdoor areas alongside 30,000 square feet of retail and community space. Bolands Mills also provides a new hub for Google's engineering teams, retail spaces for an eclectic mix of independent local businesses, as well as 46 discounted-rental apartments made available to key workers supporting the local community via Clúid. Minister for Culture, Communications and Sport, Patrick O'Donovan said: "The restoration of The Factory is a shining example of how we can preserve our cultural heritage while creating new opportunities for creativity and community. Spaces like this are essential for fostering artistic expression, inclusion, and innovation - especially in dynamic urban areas like the Dublin Docklands. I commend Google for their ongoing commitment to cultural engagement and look forward to seeing The Factory become a vibrant hub for local talent and creative collaboration." The Factory is now ready to continue the creative legacy of The Docklands. As a versatile hub for all forms of expression, it has been redesigned for flexibility and inclusivity - offering a blank canvas for diverse voices, sounds, and rhythms of the neighbourhood. From 2025, this storied space will be available for local groups to book for various creative, educational, and cultural activities. Requests for booking can be made at https://bolandsmills.com/event-spaces/. Speaking at the event, local artist Paula Moen said: "The arts are a vital part of Ireland's cultural identity. Spaces like The Factory at Bolands Mills are essential in nurturing creativity and community connection. The support of a global company like Google is invaluable and very much appreciated in our local communities - not only does it help preserve our rich artistic heritage, but it also empowers local artists to thrive and innovate. It's crucial that we continue to champion our homegrown talent and create opportunities for...

On this episode I'm joined by Lucy Davis, my co-founder at Factory, as we unpack the messy reality of AI in commerce – beyond the hype and into the hard questions.We get into whether traditional discovery processes still matter when AI can simulate, generate, and iterate at speed. Are briefs still useful? Is AI discovery even a thing? Or is it just a shiny wrapper on what strategy teams already do?We talk about sustainability in AI, how brands like L'Oréal are experimenting with Nvidia to create more personalised beauty experiences, and why so much of what's sold as intelligent automation is still smoke and mirrors. You'll hear why smaller brands might actually be better placed to move fast, where AI is helping with internal efficiencies, and when it's just adding noise.If you've ever found yourself wondering whether an AI tool is a real unlock or just a pitch deck promise, this one's for you.This podcast is brought to you by our friends at Omnisend.

In this heartfelt episode of the Kankakee Podcast, we're back for a night of powerful storytelling recorded live at The Venue Lounge in Downtown Kankakee. It's the June 2025 edition of Yarn Factory Listeners, where community members gather to share and celebrate the stories that make Kankakee unique.The evening kicks off with Terry Streetman, whose moving account of courage, resilience, and the power of queer joy highlights why he chose to call Kankakee home. Terry recalls a harrowing experience at a drag brunch in Ohio, the threat faced by his community, and the unwavering solidarity and love that triumphed in the face of hatred. His journey ends with discovering acceptance and connection within Kankakee's vibrant LGBTQ community, inspiring all to carry forward the spirit of joyful defiance.Next, Jacob Cantrell steps up to deliver a raw and deeply personal reflection on grief, loss, and healing, recounting the tragic death of his older brother and the lifelong imprint it left. Jacob's brave vulnerability resonates throughout the room, reminding us of the unseen ways we influence each other's lives and the importance of connection through even our hardest moments.Brooke Hildebrand shares a fond and funny exploration of family ties, celebrating the unique shorthand, inside jokes, and enduring bonds that only cousins can share. Her stories of Yonka family chaos, comfort, and camaraderie spark laughter and nostalgia, shining a light on the joy of lasting relationships and the value of “weak ties” in our personal networks.After intermission, local favorite Van Johnson lights up the stage with a story of sibling “hazing” gone hilariously awry, bringing down the house with tales of childhood mischief, inventive payback, and the unbreakable bonds formed over a deck of cards.The night closes with acclaimed writer Taylor Ledding-McMaster, who turns an act of hate into a force for good. Taylor recounts the anonymous, bigoted letter she received after officiating her best friend's same-sex wedding and sharing the joy in her weekly “A Tailor Made Life” column. In true Kankakee fashion, Taylor responds not with anger but with creativity and community fundraising—turning “the devil delights in you” into a viral sticker that raises money for the Trevor Project and the Kankakee LGBTQ Network.Tune in for a tapestry of laughter, tears, resilience, and pride—woven together in a way that only a small town like Kankakee can.

Sourcing expert Isaac Hetzroni, aka @thesourcingguy, shares tips on China, AI, factory tours, and finding top suppliers. Essential insights for smarter e-commerce strategies.   Join us as we explore the dynamic world of sourcing with Isaac Hetzroni, aka @thesourcingguy, a rising influencer known for his insightful content on YouTube, TikTok, and Instagram. Isaac, though lesser-known in the Amazon space, shares his extensive experience in manufacturing, having grown up in the industry with his family's apparel and electronics factories. He provides valuable insights on whether businesses should look beyond China for sourcing, and shares practical tips on understanding product costs and minimizing risks. Isaac's engaging social media presence brings these topics to life, making sourcing strategies both informative and entertaining.   We'll also examine the complexities and misconceptions surrounding sourcing from China, where advanced infrastructure and a skilled workforce have cemented its status as a manufacturing powerhouse. Despite pushes for diversification, replicating China's efficiency in other countries presents significant challenges. Apparel manufacturing emerges as a more adaptable sector for relocation, yet the transition is fraught with logistical hurdles. The discussion extends to global manufacturing trends and China's impact on the U.S. market, including the rise of Factory to Consumer strategies and the role of AI in overcoming language barriers, all of which are reshaping global trade relationships.   In this episode, we emphasize the importance of building strong business relationships, especially when dealing with Chinese suppliers. Personal connections often intertwine with professional dealings, and trade shows play a crucial role in maintaining these relationships. We explore strategies for finding the best suppliers beyond platforms like Alibaba, using tools such as Import Yeti and trade shows to discover high-quality factories. Additionally, we highlight the importance of quality control and the advantages of diversifying supply chains to new regions. Tune in to gain insights into effective sourcing strategies, quality control, and the evolving landscape of global manufacturing.
