Podcasts about franchises

In this solo episode, I'm diving into a question I get asked all the time:"Why do people pick that franchise?"After speaking with hundreds of franchisees over the years, I've broken it down into 8 core reasons why smart entrepreneurs choose the franchise they do — and how you can too.✅ Whether you're looking for a recession-proof investment, a part-time business you can run while keeping your job, or a purpose-driven brand aligned with your values — this episode will help you clarify what matters most.

Marcus Musa Norman is a dynamic serial entrepreneur, podcast host, and U.S. Navy veteran who brings a unique blend of discipline, innovation, and passion to every venture he touches. Hailing from St. Croix in the Caribbean and now based in Virginia Beach, Marcus is the co-owner and operations manager of Lifeologie Counseling Hampton Roads, a rapidly growing mental health franchise. He is also the voice behind the Gentleman Style Podcast, where he interviews experts on unconventional paths to wealth and personal growth. With a background that spans real estate, cannabis dispensaries, and ATM businesses, Marcus's journey from military service to business leadership offers invaluable lessons for aspiring entrepreneurs147. On this episode we talk about: – How Marcus made his first dollar as a 10-year-old grocery store bagger and his most recent dollar as a mental health franchise owner – The transition from starting businesses from scratch to buying into a franchise model – The unique challenges and opportunities in the mental health industry, including scaling a new franchise and expanding into prescription management – Marcus's diverse entrepreneurial ventures, including real estate, ATM portfolios, and cannabis dispensaries with cutting-edge technology – The power of podcasting as a platform for learning, networking, and uncovering alternative investment strategies Top 3 Takeaways 1. Diversify your income streams: Marcus's journey shows that building wealth often means exploring multiple business models—from real estate and cannabis to mental health franchises—rather than relying solely on traditional investments. 2. Leverage your background and network: Skills honed in the military, such as leadership and adaptability, can be powerful assets in entrepreneurship. Strategic networking—like connecting with franchise brokers—can open doors to new opportunities. 3. Education and intentionality are key: Whether investing in alternative assets or starting a business, continuous learning and a clear plan are essential. Don't just avoid 401(k)s or traditional paths—educate yourself and act with purpose. Notable Quotes “If you help enough people, people will pay you for it.” “The money is better served in our hands as long as we educate ourselves and become more financially literate.” “Sink your teeth into something that you're passionate about. At the end of the day, it's still going to rise and fall based on your ability to make it rise or fall.”

Final Destination 6: Bloodlines | Der Tod kommt krass Die Pause war lang genug. Bereits 2011 hätte mit "Final Destination 5" der vorerst letzte Teil der makabren Horror-Reihe seinen bisherigen Abschluss gefunden. Nun, 15 Jahre später, steht mit "Final Destination: Bloodlines" tatsächlich ein sechster Teil in den Startlöchern, der am 15. Mai 2025 nach zahlreichen Previews auch in den deutschen Kinos startet. Der Film versucht das einstige Kultphänomen mit neuen, gewohnt bizarren Todesarten (FSK 18!) zu altem Glanz führen – nicht zuletzt mithilfe von Jon Watts, dem Regisseur der letzten "Spider-Man"-Filme, der dem Projekt als Produzent frische Impulse verleihen durfte. Ob "Bloodlines" tatsächlich zu den stärksten Einträgen der Reihe zählen könnte, darüber spekulieren Schlogger und Stu im aktuellen Podcast. Sie sprechen über die Stellung des Franchises innerhalb des modernen Horror-Kinos, darüber, welche Erwartungen langjährige Fans wie auch neugierige Neueinsteiger haben könnten – und ob Teil sechs womöglich neue Maßstäbe für das Spiel mit dem Tod setzen würde.

Franchises, reboots, crossovers, live-action remakes, interpolations… Why does the entertainment industry keep churning out cultural products that are derivative of something that came before, like Nicki Minaj rapping over “Barbie Girl” at the end of the Barbie movie on an endless loop?According to Andrew DeWaard, a professor of media and popular culture at UC San Diego, it's because of Wall Street. In his brain-expanding new book, Derivative Media: How Wall Street Devours Culture, Andrew pulls back the curtain on how popular culture has become derivative in a deeper, more insidious way: it's private equity buying up entire song catalogs, activist hedge funds staging hostile takeovers of entertainment conglomerates, and the cultural industries getting consumed wholesale by the financial sector — actual derivatives trading included.That wave of financialization is having an increasingly palpable effect on what we see and hear when we open up apps like Spotify and Netflix — not just in terms of the kinds of works that get funded, but increasingly, in the character of the works themselves, leading Andrew to posit that “the stock exchange has become embedded within the media text.”Andrew joins us to talk about how finance-world strategies impact both the companies that fund the culture we consume and the labor of those who produce it — and how they result in an entertainment landscape that is increasingly inhospitable to taking big risks. And we get into how the logic of the derivative has become embedded in media products themselves, from Jay Z turning lyrical wordplay into a champagne empire, to the White Lotus casting K-pop star LISA.Want to continue the conversation?

Brennan is joined this week by Cameron (whom we finally give a chance to plug her own podcast, Stoneybrook Reunion) and Andrew, and the three of them are having a conversations about incomplete franchises: series that stalled out in the middle, sequel hooks that never caught anything, book adaptations that didn't make it all the way through the source material.

It's a wide-ranging look at movies and series old and new, and it provides a lot to think about, even though Tim, in absentia, is screaming all sorts of nasty things at the group for failing to mention Horizon: An American Saga.
