Why did a German immigration officer deny asylum to a Russian torture victim by citing a press release from Sergei Shoigu? Why is the Russian Orthodox Church building an Artificial Intelligence to automate the writing of police denunciations? And why is Vladimir Putin personally designing a business plan for a single pie shop while the national gold reserves vanish?In this episode of The Eastern Border, we smash the glass of the "Republic of Fake." We travel from the heated offices of Berlin bureaucrats who have accepted the Kremlin's lies as legal truth, to the frontlines where "Turbo-Patriots" are realizing that their holy war has become nothing more than an unfashionable subculture.We dig into the "Kickback Empire" where 50% of the imperial budget is stolen by handlers in Moscow, meet "Yura Unitaz"—the alleged toilet salesman in charge of Russia's drone war—and analyze the forensic data proving the Kadyrov regime is running on autopilot.The cake is rotting, friends. Don't eat it.IN THIS EPISODE:The Shoigu Precedent: How German bureaucracy was hacked by Russian apathy.The Mashenka Economy: The President, the Pie Shop, and the 1998 oil prices.Orthodox GPT: Outsourcing Judas to a server farm.The Kadyrov Glitch: Waze data, deleted Instagram posts, and the panic in Grozny.The Dead End: Why Russian nationalists admit "The SMO is out of fashion."SUPPORT THE FRONT LINE: Help our friends at Car4Ukraine turn civilian trucks into life-saving "Christmas Tree Trucks" for the defenders on the zero line:

Welcome back to the LuxeGen Podcast! This week, the girls are yapping (as always) about everything breaking the internet – from pop culture chaos to fashion hot takes. We're diving into the new ‘Euphoria' trailer, including why it feels darker and if Rue is actually going to survive that infamous suitcase. Plus, we unpack the state of ‘Love Island' and whether it's officially had its moment. Elsewhere on the hot list: Brooklyn Beckham drama, celebrity relationship messiness and why TikTok is absolutely eating it up. We also chat about Harry Styles' upcoming album, ‘Hunger Games' nostalgia and why maximalism might be back (sorry slicked-back buns). Fashion fans, you're fed – outfit breakdowns, funky socks, camo hats and why 2026 might be the year of chaos > clean girl.

In dieser Episode von selbst&frei teilt Alvaro Gellings, Mitgründer von Day One, erstmals die ungeschminkte Wahrheit über den Aufbau einer der am schnellsten wachsenden Sportmarken Deutschlands. Von null auf 100.000 verkaufte Produkte in nur 15 Monaten – mit einer Launch-Kampagne, die über eine Milliarde organische Views im deutschsprachigen Raum generiert hat. Alvaro erklärt, wie er gemeinsam mit Extremsportler Arda Saatçi Day One gegründet hat, ohne jemals ein klassisches Pitch-Deck zu erstellen. Er spricht offen über die Realität hinter den Kulissen: Zwei Jahre Vorbereitung, hunderte Iterationsstufen bei der Produktentwicklung, und eine Marketingkampagne, die 3000 Kilometer durch Amerika und quer durch Japan führte – alles dokumentiert, geklippt und viral verbreitet durch tausende Videos auf Social Media. Besonders wertvoll: Seine ehrliche Reflexion über den Unterschied zwischen Creator Economy und klassischem E-Commerce. Während andere Brands langsam hochskalieren können, musste Day One vom ersten Tag an perfekt sein – weil Millionen zuschauen. Alvaro erklärt, warum Qualitätsmanagement der Schlüssel ist, wenn man mit Creatorn launcht, und wie sie trotz kleinem Team siebenstellige Umsätze im ersten Monat erreicht haben. Er teilt die genauen Zahlen: sechsstellige Kundenanzahl, durchschnittliche Warenkörbe von 100-120 Euro, und wie sie es geschafft haben, bereits im ersten Jahr unabhängig von Ardas Reichweite zu wachsen. Die wichtigste Strategie: Paid Media, Out-of-Home-Campaigns, weitere Athleten – und das klare Ziel, dass Ardas Anteil am Gesamtumsatz relativ immer kleiner wird, während die absolute Zahl weiter wächst. Besonders eindrucksvoll: Seine persönliche Journey vom Kellner und Kickboxtrainer über Trinkspiel-Entwicklung während des Studiums bis zum erfolgreichen Exit und schließlich Day One. Alvaro spricht offen über seine frühe Zeit – sehr früh aus dem Elternhaus ausgezogen, mit Schüler-BAföG durchs Abi gekommen, und wie er durch Studentenpartys, Abercrombie & Fitch-Modeling und die ersten unternehmerischen Versuche die Social Ladder hochgestiegen ist. Er erklärt, warum er seine erste Firma für einen siebenstelligen Betrag an einen Inkubator verkauft hat – und warum er trotz 20.000-50.000 Euro Monatsgehalt in der Immobilienbranche den Sprung ins Vollzeit-Unternehmertum gewagt hat. Die wichtigste Erkenntnis: "Einfach machen" – egal ob Trinkspiele, Fashion oder Sportmarke. Jedes Projekt lehrt dich Produktentwicklung, Performance Marketing, Supply Chain – und diese Skills sind übertragbar. Ein radikales Plädoyer für You vs. You, authentisches Storytelling und die Kunst, eine Brand zu bauen, die nicht von einem Creator abhängt, sondern von echter Mission und kompromissloser Qualität. Kapitel: (00:00:00) Intro: Alvaro Gellings und die Day One Story (00:02:07) Die Cyborg Season: 1 Milliarde Views und der Launch (00:06:09) Creator Economy: Warum Perfektion von Anfang an nötig ist (00:09:04) Produktentwicklung: Von Stoffen bis Hangtags (00:13:07) Das erste Jahr in Zahlen: 100.000 verkaufte Produkte (00:20:13) Marketing-Mix: Vom Creator zur skalierbaren Brand (00:25:25) Personal Branding: Warum Alvaro aus dem Hintergrund trat (00:52:33) Für wen lohnt sich Personal Branding wirklich? (01:06:23) Der größte Fehler: Zeit vs. Mission (01:16:40) Storytelling: Die Hero-Story und You vs. You (01:25:12) Der Weg zu 100 Millionen Euro Umsatz (01:42:46) Athletenprogramm: Große Creator vs. kleine Athleten (00:35:58) Alvaros unternehmerische Reise: Von Bildern für Pesetas zu Day One (01:49:50) Der Blueprint für Anfänger: Einfach machen (01:58:25) Outro: Die wichtigste Lektion selbst&frei wird im Auftrag von Vivid Money produziert – dem Geschäftskonto für Unternehmer.

The first quarter of the 21st century is now behind us. Yet a pervasive sense of cultural stagnation persists: many observers and participants feel that creativity across the arts, media, and popular culture has slowed, leaving society with a muted sense of innovation and excitement. David Marx's new book, Blank Space: A Cultural History of the Twenty-First Century, provides an incisive guide through the cultural touchstones that have defined the last twenty-five years. Marx examines how commercialization gradually came to dominate contemporary culture, propelled by rapid technological advancements and a shifting cultural mindset that favors profit-driven formulas over experimentation. He argues that these dynamics—spanning art, literature, music, film, and fashion—have stymied radical innovation, making the opening decades of the new century some of the least transformative since the invention of the printing press. As Marx observes, there is now “a conspicuous blank space where art and creativity used to be.” In Blank Space, Marx also proposes five strategies to help restore a society that values and nurtures cultural inventiveness. He joins the Art Angle to discuss the pressures and developments that slowed the emergence of radical new formats in art and broader culture over the last 25 years, and he outlines potential paths forward. Topics explored include the rise of kitsch, nostalgia, cultural omnivorism, and poptimism, all of which, he suggests, have contributed to the current climate of creative inertia. Marx is a Tokyo-based American critic and writer whose work has appeared in The Atlantic and The New Yorker. He is also the author of several previous books, including Status and Culture: How Our Desire for Social Rank Creates Taste, Identity, Art, Fashion, and Constant Change and Ametora: How Japan Saved American Style. Blank Space: A Cultural History of the Twenty-First Century was published in November 2025 by Penguin Random House.

Hour 1--J&J Show Thursday 1-22-26--Memphis Tigers lost in embarrasing fashion in Tulsa & this year is bad + Grizzlies team of "What ifs"

Fashion icon and founder Cynthia Rowley joins us for a powerful conversation about building a global brand while raising a family, and refusing to choose between ambition and motherhood. Cynthia opens up about losing her husband at 34, becoming a mom later in life, and navigating single motherhood while continuing to grow a massive fashion empire without guilt. She shares how she integrated her children into her life and work, created a tight-knit family dynamic, set strong boundaries around family time, and modeled that work can be a source of joy and fulfillment, something her kids now carry with them, too.We talk about taking risks while holding the responsibility of motherhood, releasing the mental load, navigating “nepotism” commentary, and what it's been like for her daughters to carve their own paths while still choosing to live with her in their 20s (the ultimate definition of success). With decades of perspective, Cynthia offers wisdom on reinvention, self-trust, and a beautiful example of how motherhood is additive—not something that takes away from your identity, career, or creativity.

Heritage sports brands may be tempted to rely on their history to appeal to a new generation that wasn't there to see it. But in the fast-moving digital attention economy, that's a mistake, says Antonio Gnocchini, chief marketing officer at Diadora.He joins The Big Impression podcast to explain how the iconic Italian brand is reclaiming its spot in the performance market. By leaning into a challenger brand mindset during the Paris 2024 Olympics — without the price tag of official sponsorship — Gnocchini and his team are shifting the focus from nostalgia to high-performance innovation. Episode TranscriptPlease note, this transcript  may contain minor inconsistencies compared to the episode audio.Damian Fowler (00:00):I'm Damian Fowler, and welcome to this edition of The Big Impression. Today, we're looking at how a heritage sportswear brand carved out its own spotlight at the Paris 2024 Olympics without being an official sponsor. My guest is Antonio Gnocchini, Chief Marketing Officer at Diadora, the iconic Italian brand known for its made in Italy craftsmanship. In the lead of the Paris, Antonio and his team launched a global brand campaign built around Diadora's roster of Italian athletes from Trackstar, Larissa, Yapacino, defensers and speed skaters, all while showcasing innovations like the Atomo Running Shoe. That's the first high mileage running shoe made in Italy in three decades. We're going to break down how Diadora timed its campaign to maximize the Olympic moment, how it differentiates itself from giants like Nike and LVMH, and what this strategy says about building awareness in a crowded high-stakes marketing landscape. So let's get into it.(01:07):Antonio, can you tell us about why the Paris Olympics was such an important moment for Diadora as it sought to elevate its brand name again?Antonio Gnocchini (01:18):So if you are a multi-category sport brand, Olympics is certainly the big event, the main event, your main catwalk of the main show. And you prepare for it for a long time because you need to be in one of the most competitive environment with the best product, competitive athletes. Everything needs to be perfect. And it's also one of those moments in which you can go deeper with attention, with messages. If you are serious about sport and you want to communicate, sport brand values, what you really stand for, it's not easy, especially today in moments in which the attention is not much, few seconds from everybody. Channels are very fast and flattened messages very easily. The Olympics is a moment in which for a few weeks you have the attention. You have people connected and engaged. You have people who care. And so it's a perfect environment to talk again about what you stand for.(02:41):And so going back to the Olympics was a statement to say, we actually are a competitive sport brands, a performance brand, not only lifestyle of it. And so yeah, it was such an important environment for us. Also, these Olympics was maybe one of the first ones that I've seen since I started doing this job when you could see some challengers brands activating and being visible.(03:15):In the past, this was really an event only for main sponsors and official sponsors mostly. Now this is a moment of challengers. And if you find the right way and if you had a good connection with your outlets, you could be doing a successful marketing campaigns and actions.Damian Fowler (03:35):That's really interesting to hear you say that. And I think, and I'm curious to hear your thoughts on this. Is the kind of media environment that we exist in now, does that make it possible for challenger brands to find a way to reach audiences that they otherwise might not be able to find back when it was the main TV channels and big glossy mags, there are more niches now in many ways.Antonio Gnocchini (04:00):There's a very interesting report that Business of Fashion and McKinsey release every year. And the most recent one was a study from McKinsey, which they were showing displaying how the sport market, which was dominated by only few incumbents. And you could see that at Olympics, still today, the most recent one, the usual suspects are dominated most of the sports. But in this past few years, there is a change going on in which incumbents are really under pressure from Challengers brand in the sport industry. They're gaining momentum. Challenges are gaining space, gaining market share, and also visibility. And you can say that maybe this is linked to the explosion of running as a global movement, but it's not only that. Running certainly as contributed, because running is one of those categories that is really extremely democratic. And yeah, sure, track and field main athletes, famous names help, but you can become a successful running brand without having only the most amazing hundred meters runners.(05:37):You can be successful by working in other ways. And you see brands starting to become more visible through running in the sport industry.Damian Fowler (05:47):What's interesting about Diadora is that it has this very significant legacy as a sports brand. I mean, I think back to my childhood when I used to absolutely love Beyond Borg. And as soon as I saw the name Diadora, I remember Borg. And of course there's other soccer legends like Roberto Baggio or Francesco Totti. But in recent years, it's been a little bit maybe eclipsed by bigger brands that you just mentioned. So you're a challenger brand, but you're also a legacy brand. Could you explain a bit more of the context around the history of the brand?Antonio Gnocchini (06:24):If you are passionate about sport, when you land at Diadora and you visit the museum, it is a kid in a candy store. That was my experience at the museum is you could see in real life the objects of desire of your youth. In my bedroom, I had posters of all these heroes and there's a moment, there's a scene in King Richard with Will Smith, in which you hear for a moment in the movie, you hear Venus and Serena Williams coach telling Richard Williams to wait on the Nike offer because the perfect offer for any tennis player at the time was the one Jennifer Capriati was getting from Diadora. When I watched the movie, I was like, whoa. So we wear really the tennis brand and the brand that was in relation with athletes, especially tennis athletes. We were the tennis athletes brand. What happened?(07:34):I think that the brand, the company really focused for few decades on product, product marketing, sports marketing contracts, traditional marketing actions. While in the meantime, other brands, other sport brands have become very sophisticated, very innovative in their marketing strategies, films where Nike's main language and they were exciting product of their marketing department. I think the brand here, the Theodo has been focusing on other things and lost the engagement with consumers globally. And then for a few years, as I was saying, the focus had been really on capitalizing on its legacy and becoming more of a lifestyle brand. But in reality, the market can tell you that if you're not serious about sport, you lose your credibility as a lifestyle of sport brand.Damian Fowler (08:42):Yeah. So the new campaign or the more recent campaign is about reasserting that sports connection. How else would you define the brand as it is now?Antonio Gnocchini (08:57):I think that what we needed to do ... So the first thing that I wanted to do is to prove that the sensation, the feeling that we had was correct. So we run a long and insightful brand health monitor study, and the results of that study was showing that, yes, that we were a legacy brand, people recognized the name, but they couldn't really link it any longer to specific performance product, and they were not buying performance product any longer from the Adora. So we were also associated linked to values like being Italian, but at the same time, it was this idea of romantic Italian, quaint, Italian, traditional. If you want to be successful in sports, you have to talk about innovation, you have to be recognized for your capacity of being a technological advanced company. And so the main effort for us in the beginning was to go back into making sure that our research and development center was up to speed and that the marketing department was capable of telling these type of stories because these stories were in fact very important for our consumer, for our focused consumers, the focus of our target, a younger consumer that wanted to talk about sport, they wanted to be capable also of discovering innovative brand sports.(10:44):So even if we were not one of the main incumbents by being authentic in sport, especially in running and in other categories, by being authentic, we could engage with this young consumers who was interested in discovering new brands that have an innovation angle that was really relevant.Damian Fowler (11:11):Yeah, that absolutely makes sense. I'm interested to hear you talk a bit more about that audience group that you really wanted to reach and the profile of that group. And presumably there's an element of conquesting going on because you've got to get them from some of the bigger names that we've already talked about.Antonio Gnocchini (11:29):Yeah. As I was saying, running has become one of those category, goes beyond just track and field, goes beyond the daily jogger, goes beyond ... It is really something that touches wellness, fashion is playing into running a lot. Everybody is doing running collections today, not just the usual suspects. We wanted to make sure that in this environment in which you had a lot of noise, we could be recognized as authentic, as separate from the noise. So we wanted to talk with a niche and then make sure that that authentic young athlete was putting the mileage out. So it wasn't talking about running, but putting also the miles and the sweat in running. There were those consumers that were scheduling all their weekends around the run, around the race, so the real authentic runner could recognize that we weren't distracted by all this running noise. We were serious.(12:48):So our messages were we run a campaign that is called Normalize iMileage that was directed only to that type of consumers that could recognize the acts and the gestures and the typical struggle of that type of runners. Even if that meant alienating for a little bit a wider audience, because we know that with a wider audience, we had less capacity of rich. We didn't have the muscle for them. But we see today that when you are authentic and strong with that type of niche, that niche creates expansion and creates influence, and then you start to resonate also in other markets and with other type of consumers.Damian Fowler (13:39):Yeah. Can you talk a little bit more about how you set the stage leading up to Paris to build that buzz that's going to resonate across all these different outlets?Antonio Gnocchini (13:51):Yeah. We decided, as you can imagine, getting attention is ex extremely difficult, especially today. The new channels are flattening everything and everything is so few fraction of a seconds between your thumb and in your face, it's very hard to go deeper with messages. And if you want to go deeper, you need to find ways in which you can. And for us, our strategy was, okay, we need to stop their attention, stop their eyes for longer.Damian Fowler (14:35):I'm curious now to see, given the kind of media exposure that you started to establish, how did it play out during and after the Olympics, and how did you capitalize on it essentially?Antonio Gnocchini (14:49):So we monitor during the main events at the Arsenal, we made sure that all the guests and all the people, all the stakeholders of sport were well-informed and also capable of giving the right message out with the proper information. And then we started collecting and amplify this type of information, then feed them also to our partners in the market, retailers, key accounts. All of this helped us make sure that the product was properly displayed and also was selling out in the right moment in time. And by being nimble and agile and fast, we had a great success on this. The content that we had created, we noticed that they were getting a completion rate of 97, 98%. We never had completion rates so high. So we knew that we had something that was resonating. We only needed to be insisting on it and fasting the reaction by feeding athletes, giving the same content to them, and that's it.Damian Fowler (16:08):And you mentioned that 97% completion rate on videos and things like that. That's obviously an important metric. What else did you do to measure brand buzz? And then maybe then how did you connect that to sales?Antonio Gnocchini (16:21):Every year we do a brand study, a brand health monitor in order to understand the feeling and how our values are perceived by consumers. If there is any change in what we're doing that is affecting their point of view on the brand. Then we do social monitoring on a daily base, especially when we post and when we have athletes performing our.com and a good connection with key accounts, get us data on results and how what we do resonates on the market. That's pretty much what keep us informed and get us a good understanding of what we're doing.Damian Fowler (17:05):How did this push around Paris help define the current market right now? And what does it also tell you about where you should build next?Antonio Gnocchini (17:15):It is a confirmation that it is a challenger moment. It is a confirmation that if you establish a conversation with your consumers, you can expand and you can gain market in a market that was completely polarized and dominated by only a few brands. It is also confirmation that if you are authentic, at times, maybe even very vertical in your attack to the market through the category, we don't do every sport. We only are focusing now on few sports, but to do them with authenticity, this is also resonating a lot and you have to be ready for sport moments, which means every sport moment that it's not only Olympics, even minor sport moments, if you're capable of being ready and capitalize on it with your athletes, it's a great tool.Damian Fowler (18:20):You talked about using innovation, being on the cutting edge to reach a new generation of fans, but do you also still infuse that with some of the golden age narrative that Diadora has? Yes,Antonio Gnocchini (18:33):We do. We balance. We try to balance the messaging in that sense, but I think what I've learned in this past few years here is that this is no longer the sneaker culture generation where you could go and have long session and education and talk about the history of that specific model, and you would have this passionate nerd of Sneakers that would then storytell the whole thing to Hollist friends and everybody were buying into it. Everybody was buying into it. I think every time we preach about our history, every time about we try to give lessons, especially the younger generation, it doesn't seem to be interesting and doesn't like it also. But what we see that they like is what they discover. So we have to be ready with the right information. We have to give them a story that is compelling in term of product, in term of innovation, and then let them discover the history behind it, the art, let's say, the origin of the whole story, and where is this coming from?(19:54):So maybe one thing that I'm seeing that it's also a learning is the fact that brands ... I've seen brands just trying to capitalize on the fact that one product story has to be successful because it's linked to this specific moment in time, and you consumers should know about it and should buy about it because of that. It doesn't really resonate to consumer any longer. You need more than that. And so, yeah.Damian Fowler (20:27):I love that. I think it's so interesting to hear you say you can't preach to consumers, but you can allow them the opportunity to discover. I think that's such a great insight. I think that goes for any storytelling, to be honest.Antonio Gnocchini (20:45):I think you're right, but I think it's specifically more valid now in which I believe that you need to have your story perfect and you need to have the details of your story needs to be really well done. People think that you can simply post in every second and be very fast in making sure that consumers will see fresh things every second, digest it very quickly, and then post new ones. Especially for us, this doesn't prove to be right.Damian Fowler (21:24):I had a good guest on this podcast a few editions ago who talked about how brand messaging is in everything, the tactile element of the brand. He used Harley Davidson as an example, it's not just a bike, it's everything you encounter in the showroom, the quality of the materials. And I'm getting that sense when I look at Diadora and the Diadora site that their brand messaging comes through in the product line.Antonio Gnocchini (21:55):This is very true and very valid. Again, if you want to be serious in your relationship, in your conversation with that niche audience, it means that every touchpoint, every single touchpoint needs to tell something about that story, otherwise they will immediately perceive that it's not authenticDamian Fowler (22:21):Any longer. So let me ask you big picture here. So for marketers listening, what's the lesson here that you can tell? You came from Nike, but now you're at Diadora. So you've seen what the big heavyweight brand has done and can do, but what can a smaller brand learn from your experience, I guess, whether it be about future forward channels like CTV or retail media or programmatic or social? Sorry, let me just ask you ask that more simply. What can a marketer learn from your experience trying to market this, bring this brand back into view? IAntonio Gnocchini (23:04):Think the most important thing for us has been to be capable of focusing on doing few things and do them perfectly, or at least as perfect as we could do. You are challenged to be very active and be reactive and also try to capitalize on every single product you have in the line and every sport that is played is an opportunity of doing something. The reality is if you want to start to resonate, you need to establish a valid conversation with your core focused consumers. And to do that, you need focus. And this means also at times being capable of saying no to things that you could be doing or that you get pressure from anybody or everybody in the company to do, and also the pressure from the market many times. Again, let's remember that this was a market in which you were supposed to drop a new product every few weeks, so we don't do that.(24:23):And we try to talk about innovation only when we have real innovation to communicate. And then when you do build an authentic story and a strong story with every touchpoint connected in the right way, this to me proved to be successful.Damian Fowler (24:44):Going back to Paris, that was obviously a huge high watermark for sport last year. As you look ahead to next year, is there anything that's on your calendar that's one of those moments where brand and moment have that synchronicity?Antonio Gnocchini (25:01):Olympics is not something that you prepare the season before. So next Olympics is already something that we are studying, preparing for, sweating about. We have to prepare all our innovations. We have to be ready with the right messaging. We have to find the right athletes, and we have to have a strategy on what type of messages we want to focus on. So LA Olympics is certainly something that we look at and we dream of.Damian Fowler (25:40):Let me turn to the last section here and just ask you some quick fire questions, if I may. One of the things I wanted to ask you is, is there a sports marketing trend that you think is overrated?Antonio Gnocchini (25:51):Maybe there is something that is a bit underrated, which is the fact that some lesser known sport events and maybe not the main athletes, but the local athletes, they are underrated. You can build excellent engaging campaign through those.Damian Fowler (26:17):What matters more in the next five years? Heritage, innovation, or cultural storytelling?Antonio Gnocchini (26:24):If I may try to put them in order, I would say cultural storytelling for me, then innovation and then heritage. If you do cultural storytelling well, I think your legacy, your heritage is probably already well told in there, but I think that you, again, it's a moment in time which I will never stop stressing the fact that you need to be capable in storytelling properly.Damian Fowler (26:57):Is there anything missing in the ad marketplace today that you perceive?Antonio Gnocchini (27:01):Data that goes beyond just the reach of a campaign. And even the reach at times is not really ... And not everything is so perfect and reliable. If you could find a way ... You remember where you were studying marketing and the sentence from Wanamaker, I don't know which half of my money spent is wasted. I go back to that. I've been promised by these new tools and these new digital tools that I will know better, but it seems that to be capable of really reading through the noise and getting valuable data that goes just beyond rich, it's still hard and it's still at times not that reliable. And then the other thing is I see an inflation in the attention economy that makes me think that I need to find new ways and new channels and not only finding great storytelling. The reality is my stories, if I even have a great way of telling, if even when I have a great story, at times I need to change it and distort it in order to be played in these new environments, in new digital channels.(28:40):These channels at times distort the values of my brand, and I want that not to happen. So I need to find better ways and better channels.Damian Fowler (28:55):And that's it for this edition of The Big Impression. This show is produced by Molten Heart. Our theme is by Love and Caliber and our associate producer is Sydney Cairns. And remember.Antonio Gnocchini (29:04):I think the most important thing for us has been to be capable of focusing on doing few things and do them perfectly.Damian Fowler (29:15):I'm Damian, and we'll see you next time.

Podcasting is changing in real time, and if you've felt that shift lately, you're not imagining it.In this episode of Pivot Ball Change, I'm digging into what's happening in the podcasting industry right now and what it actually means for you as a host or business owner. From podcasts being recognized as an official Golden Globes category to the news of Jenna Kutcher shutting down her long-running show, we're unpacking the signals that podcasting is evolving, not disappearing.I also answer a listener-submitted question around podcast guesting: how to spot whether a guest request is legitimate, how to pitch yourself in a way that stands out, and how to confidently recruit guests for your own show. If rejection has ever stopped you from putting yourself out there, we're talking about that too. I share my thoughts on handling a “no,” when and how to follow up, and why this step alone could be what leads to your next yes.We zoom out even further to talk about AI and the future of podcasting. In a world that's becoming increasingly automated, I explain why podcasting still matters and how it continues to create space for real, human connection in a way few platforms can.You'll also hear real-time updates from my own business, including a follow-up on the giveaway strategy I shared last week and whether I'm calling it a win or a lesson. We talk about the power of tiny, daily habits, why consistency matters more than scale, and how simply getting your podcast in front of one new person every day can compound into massive growth over time. I also share a big, vulnerable goal I've set for 2026 and the fear that comes with saying it out loud.We wrap things up with Food, Fashion, Fun & Fiction.

Send us a textMOPB- Blind Leading the BlindPodcast Summary – Ro-Mina / MOPB S1 E4 “Boobs and Knees”This episode opens with a deep dive into Ro-Mina's background. Born in Uzbekistan during the USSR era, Ro-Mina is a Bukharian (Buharian) Sephardic Jew with Persian roots—something she considers central to her identity. She immigrated to the U.S. at age five, speaks fluent Russian, and grew up in Northeast Philly before moving to Bucks County. A longtime reality-TV fan, Ro-Mina manifested her place on TV and ultimately landed on the show through Rosalyn.Professionally, Ro-Mina partnered with her brother in a senior home-care business, which they later sold. She then invested heavily in real estate with her husband Roman, taking over design and staging while he builds, leases, and manages properties himself. Roman has supported her reality-TV ambitions from day one.Ro-Mina finds herself caught in the middle of the growing rift between Rosalyn and Hillary. While she respects Hillary's talent and hustle, she believes Hillary revealed Rosalyn's past in a way that felt malicious. She encourages Rosalyn to keep finding her voice and stay authentic, while struggling with loyalty on both sides.The recap then shifts to MOPB S1 E4 – “Boobs and Knees.” Hillary plans a lavish vow renewal after her intimate Tuscany wedding, complete with yacht tastings and nonstop criticism of the food. She continues her crusade against Maria, accusing her of inappropriate behavior and declaring she doesn't belong in the group.At Maria's DJ launch party, tensions explode. Hillary and Maria face off over accusations of name-calling, attention-seeking, and physical boundaries. The argument ends with Hillary uninviting Maria from her vow renewal—and Maria gladly accepting the dismissal.The drama escalates again at Rosalyn's billionaire-level gala, featuring a $1.2M Bulgari Serpenti necklace. Fashion rules (“boobs and knees”), etiquette wars, and reputation policing dominate the night. Taja confronts Gale over name-dropping and authenticity, while Maria exposes behind-the-scenes judgment from the group. The evening reaches peak chaos when Gale literally falls off the couch, triggering a glam emergency and unfiltered confessionals.The episode closes with fractured alliances, wounded egos, and the clear realization that Palm Beach politeness is no match for unchecked honesty, couture confidence, and unresolved grudges.Support the showhttps://www.wewinewhenever.com/

HEADLINE: Emerging from the Terror: The Birth of Revolutionary Style GUEST AUTHOR: Anne HigonnetSUMMARY: Professor Anne Higonnet discusses how the end of the Reign of Terror in 1794 precipitated a radical shift in French fashion. Teresia Tallien, emerging from prison in a simple garment, transformed her "prison garb" into a symbol of survival and chic, abandoning the corsets and silks of the aristocracy for flowing lines. Joined by Rose de Beauharnais (the future Josephine) and Juliette Récamier, these women—known as "The Graces"—utilized style as a tool for social and political advancement. Higonnet argues that while men controlled the violence, these women revolutionized the culture, turning their trauma into a liberating aesthetic.1796 JOSEPHINE

The unifying youth culture across the Arab region is characterized by a proud new Arab identity and the changing standards of beauty with the rise of "Arab beauty" (A beauty), which celebrates Arab features and aesthetics. The founder of Mille World and Mille Creative, Sofia Guellaty, talks about her journey launching the first Arab youth platform in the Arab world, the role of media professionals as "editors of conversations," and the emergence of a new, proud Arab identity among both Gen Z and millennials. She discusses how she uses fashion and pop culture as a tool for "soft power" to talk about liberation, representation, and diversity, moving away from superficial content. She reflects on her early career, her shift from being fascinated by the West to "unbashedly proud to be Arab," and the challenges faced by Arab talent, including visa issues and the lack of an Arab-centric market. The conversation also delves into how her platform, Mille World, aims to address the lack of authentic Arab youth representation by giving a voice to young creatives who want to define their own stories, not be perceived through a "western gaze". Explore Mille World

Patrick Finley and Jason Lieser break down another impossibly dramatic Bears game — this time a season-ending loss to the Rams at Soldier Field.

The episode follows AMBUSH's evolution from jewelry made for friends to a brand that Yoon describes as a platform, shaped by experimentation rather than a rigid business plan. She speaks candidly about learning in real time, being paid to learn, and why every job and skill eventually becomes useful. From research as a daily practice to AI as a tool that can accelerate creative work without replacing it, Yoon makes a case for staying open, resisting the urge to live in boxes, and trading horizontal expansion for deeper, more human storytelling. Her definition of what feels contemporary now is simple and powerful, pursuing who you are fearlessly, and staying uniquely human in a world increasingly driven by algorithms. Episode Highlights: A childhood shaped by movement and solitudeGrowing up between Korea, Hawaii, California, and Seattle, Yoon reflects on how constant relocation fostered independence, imagination, and an ability to adapt quickly to new environments. Solitude as a creative advantageTime spent alone became a space for imagination rather than isolation, laying the groundwork for curiosity, inner confidence, and long-term creative resilience. Subculture as a formative educationFrom Seattle's grunge era to Tokyo's club scene, Yoon describes how underground culture, music, and nightlife taught her more about identity and community than any formal training. Discovering design through curiosity, not strategyHer path into graphic design and later fashion emerged organically through interests in magazines, presentation, and visual storytelling, rather than a predefined career plan. Being paid to learn as a philosophyYoon frames early jobs, including PR and corporate design work, as opportunities to learn on someone else's dime, reinforcing her belief that no experience is wasted. AMBUSH as an organic unfoldingWhat began as jewelry made for friends evolved naturally into a brand, then into a platform, driven by experimentation, relationships, and responding to real demand rather than market forecasting. Tokyo as a creative accelerantMoving to Japan exposed Yoon to layered subcultures, cross-pollination between music and fashion, and a culture open to hybridity, shaping AMBUSH's DNA. Fashion as communication, not productYoon describes fashion as a visual language for expressing identity and connection, rather than simply clothing or commercial output. AI as a tool, not a replacementShe speaks openly about embracing AI as a powerful assistant that can accelerate research and execution, while insisting that creative intent and thinking cannot be outsourced. What feels contemporary nowFor Yoon, being contemporary today means fearlessly pursuing who you are, resisting algorithmic pressure, and staying grounded in humanity, curiosity, and purpose rather than chasing scale.
