Ahad Afridi, CMO for the Americas at Pladis, owner of Godiva, shares how the legacy chocolate house's “hundred-year reboot” is reshaping the brand for a new generation of snackers, particularly millennials and Gen Zers. Episode TranscriptPlease note, this transcript  may contain minor inconsistencies compared to the episode audio. Damian Fowler (00:00):I'm Damian Fowler.Ilyse Liffreing (00:01):And I'm Ilyse Liffreing,Damian Fowler (00:02):And welcome to this edition of The Big Impression.Ilyse Liffreing (00:09):Today we're joined by Ahad Afridi Chief Marketing Officer for the Americas at Pladis, the company behind the Godiva brand, those premium chocolates we all live.Damian Fowler (00:20):We're diving into Godiva's bold new campaign, featuring Leighton Meester portraying the legendary lady, good diver, a modern spin on an iconic story of courage and individuality.Ilyse Liffreing (00:31):We'll talk about how the brand is trying to stand out ahead of the holiday season and how Pladis is evolving its brands for the next generation of snackers.Ahad Afridi (00:40):Let's get into it. It's a comprehensive launch. It's a launch of a new product within the Godiva range called Masterpiece, but it's also the start of a brand reset. And so part of this has an eye towards the now of launching this new product that's great, but also towards activities that are going to happen over the next one year. Godiva turns 100 next year, and so what we wanted to accomplish was the first big step in this centennial, what we call re-imagining of the Godiva brand.Speaker 2 (01:17):Yeah, that's a legacy brand for sure.Speaker 3 (01:18):And happy birthday as well.Speaker 2 (01:20):Thank youSpeaker 3 (01:20):A hundred years. Thank you. Thank you to Godiva. On behalf of Godiva, I'd say thank you.Speaker 1 (01:26):Yeah. In that hundred, how would you define what Godiva stands for as a legacy brand over that century?Speaker 3 (01:34):Godiva is a premium chocolate brand. It's been called a luxury chocolate brand, but we prefer to call it premium because it makes it more accessible, which we can talk about a little bit more. It's a Belgian heritage brand. Belgian chocolates are different than the normal. Speaker 2 (01:51):That's good, in my opinion,Speaker 3 (01:53):Different than the normal chocolate milk-based chocolate, but it's just great tasting, high quality chocolate that you feel great giving to others as a gift and having for yourself as well.Speaker 1 (02:08):So just to ask you about this specific campaign, what made you wanted to bring that legacy as it were up to date? Is that the right way of putting it into today's culture through this campaign?Speaker 3 (02:18):Yeah, in a way. Let's say it's a hundred year reboot because turning a hundred, you have to celebrate your heritage, but reposition for the future. So it's about getting contemporary, bringing some of those traditional values and equities of the brand, but modernizing them for today and starting this, what we call re-imagining with totally new offerings coming over the next one to two years. We've started with what we call Masterpiece, and Masterpiece is a small chocolate piece that comes in a bag with multiple pieces in there, and it's great for sharing with others or treating yourself. So this is the first step. We've just launched this now it's in the market. In the next few weeks you'll see a totally reimagined what we call gold box and truffle box, which is high-end premium chocolate in specialty stores and on the giva.com website where we've totally revamped chocolate and got new offerings in that. So that's coming over the holiday period, Valentine's Day, there'll be another new collection coming next fall. Towards the end of the next year, we'll have some more gifting chocolates available that will be broadly available. And that's the start. And then after that, in the year 2027, we've got other exciting things coming in. So it's a sequenced campaign. Speaker 2 (03:47):Good timing for the holiday season, I'm sure.Speaker 3 (03:50):Exactly, exactly. Holiday seasons are important for us. Every day is important for us, but the holiday seasons are very important for us. Yes.Speaker 2 (03:58):Can you describe a little bit of the campaign itself and what viewers might see and experience as they witness the campaign?Speaker 3 (04:06):Yeah, I guess the first thing you'll see is a wonderful cinematic traditional sort of advertising, which has got some drama in it. It's got wonderful aesthetic, but at its heart it's a product centered ad and the product is celebrated in there, the taste of that. So that's let's say the hero piece or the centerpiece. But in addition, what you'll see is a lot of social content in different variations. You'll see different versions in digital tv. You'll see a billboard coming later, so some nice still art coming there. Now what's unique about this is we didn't look at it as just a specific campaign and a point of time. We look at this as a one year program where we're relaunching the brand. So you'll see Layton Meer again in the holiday periods, Valentine's period and throughout next year. WhySpeaker 1 (05:03):Leighton Meester? I mean, I know Ilyse is a fan.Speaker 2 (05:06):Oh yeah. I mean Gossip Girl lover obviously.Speaker 3 (05:10):Well, she's a great representation of some of the values of Lady Godiva and Lady Godiv was the, let's say the initial inspiration for the brand. It's obviously called Godiva. So she, lady Godiva played a big role in the identity of the brand. But Leighton Meester is someone that we respect a lot. She's very popular, she's highly likable, she's multifaceted, great actor, musician person who has her own specific identity, and we think that's a great person to partner with in thisSpeaker 2 (05:52):Now premium chocolate, that space is a pretty packed one. How does this campaign really help the brand stand out, especially as we head into those important holiday seasons?Speaker 3 (06:04):Yeah, so premium chocolate is a growing segment within overall chocolate. So certainly chocolate's a very broad area, so many different offerings, and premium is a very important segment within that. And there are different offerings within premium. We like to consider Godiva as the high end of the premium segment. And there's something special. It's like in a category full of square shapes and round shapes,Speaker 4 (06:32):You'veSpeaker 3 (06:33):Got Godiva coming in with something totally different. And if you see the Masterpiece product, you'll see it's a very unique sort of shape there. So we pride ourselves in being kind of the premium of the premium but being accessible. And it's our goal to provide unique offerings that really tastes great and are cut above the rest of premium, but yet at let's say a fingertip away from desire.Speaker 1 (07:04):When you say relaunch, what does that mean? Does it mean like you're trying to reach new audiences, new consumers? How are you thinking about the people you're trying to reach? And I guess that does tie in with getting a celebrity like Leighton Meester.Speaker 3 (07:21):Yeah, it's important for us to connect with a broader range of consumers, younger consumers. So we're trying to get millennials and Gen Zs now, which the brand hadn't really targeted before and over a hundred year period you will have a core cohort which will age over time, and we're making a purposeful effort to try and reach a broader audience. Now contemporize the brand and our activities around doing that,Speaker 2 (07:53):Does that also have to do with perhaps the decision to call it premium chocolate versus luxury chocolate or what is that thinking?Speaker 3 (08:02):Well, the category is divine is premium chocolate, but people say good dive is a luxury brand and sometimes people talk about chocolate as being luxury. I don't think chocolate should be luxury. Chocolate should be accessible as well. And so it's really around that. It's not a conscious big effort saying, Hey, call us premium. Don't call us luxury.Speaker 3 (08:23):You can call us what you want, but it's just great tasting chocolate that is accessible. And our key point is luxury is often reserved for special occasions or milestones and that's certainly fine, but could dive a chocolate is also accessible every day. A little bit of happiness and a little smile is an everyday treat that we all have a right to.Speaker 1 (08:50):My wife reminds me of that every day. She says, should we have a chocolate? Now she's a millennium. She'll be very happy if I give her a Godiva chocolate. Well, we have them here for you to try. Okay, well we will just pause the podcast.Speaker 1 (09:07):We right back anyway. So just to talk about PLAs. So good diver is one of the brands within Pladis and which has a big portfolio of snacking. I just want to talk a bit more about the consumer you're trying to reach. What kind of insights have really shaped how you think about this new strategy?Speaker 3 (09:30):Chocolate plays a meaningful role in people's everyday lives. It's not something that's only reserved for special occasions once or twice a year. And so what we see is that people need, if you look at what we call a demand space map of consumers needs and occasions during the day, there are many opportunities in there for us to provide little bits of happiness, little bits of indulgence, a treat for yourself that is accessible and that's important for us. That's an important insight. The second is that chocolate is more than a product, but it may provide an emotional benefit. It might make you feel good, it might help you connect with others. It might be a reboot for the rest of the day, three o'clock, little piece of chocolate it with a coffee or a cup of tea or something like that is fantastic. So we've mapped consumer occasions to see that that's important. So those are really two very important insights for us.Speaker 2 (10:38):Curious, now that the campaign is out, I know it's early days, but are there any KPIs that you're really keeping your eye on or your hopes around brand impact that you're going to get from this campaign?Speaker 3 (10:54):Yes. Well, we have a broad range of metrics that we look at. You can bucket them around awareness and visibility as one. Engagement. How consumers get involved is to sentiment, what are people saying and how do they feel about it. And then importantly, fourth but not least, is the commercial impact. What kind of sales impact do we have? How's it driving the business? And we're one week into the campaign,(11:20):So we don't have any of those metrics now, but we will be tracking them. But what we're very encouraged by is just the initial, let's say feedback, what people are saying, how much people are talking about it and what they're saying about it. And it's very, very positive what we're hearing about this. And even in this first week, we're seeing remarkable engagement. People are even reediting bits of the ad and combining it with Layton Meer in other roles. It's a very scene in one of her previous shows, which she's very famous for where she says, lady Godiva is my only friend. So we're getting recut edits of that with snippets of the new ad. So consumers are sending those back to us.Speaker 2 (12:09):Now. You've talked before about how storytelling is very key to building great brands. Has this campaign changed how you think about what really connects with today's consumers?Speaker 3 (12:22):I think this campaign will confirm what we think is important in storytelling. And for us, storytelling has got to be something that captures people's attention, draws some interest, so they stick with it and is something that they'll remember later on. And we are trying to find new ways to deliver that and create that impact. But within that, we have to embed elements of the brand and the product experience that's so important in that. And this first centerpiece ad is a wonderful example of that because it's a captivating ad, but at the heart it is a product brand centered ad. So I think that's very important is to combine those things.Speaker 1 (13:14):When we look at the sort of bigger shift, and you've sort of addressed this a little bit, but I'm just curious, we are in a moment of time where people are a little bit anxious in some cases about the economy and where things are going. How do you market into that where you're talking about the importance of premium at a time, that might be something where people would think, oh, should I, shouldn't I? How do you think about that?Speaker 3 (13:42):Well, the good thing about chocolate is it is something that's important every day or can be important every day. It should be accessible every day. And whether the economy goes up or it goes down, it's something that's there. And available chocolates, you were talking earlier about luxury. God, IVA is not a Hermes bag. You don't have to wait two months, or sorry, two years to get that. It's something there that you can have. And if it provides that little bit of lift, that smile on your face, that moment of connection, that's something that is important for people regardless of economic conditions. And if they're having some moments in life or particular experiences in life where they need a little pick me up even more than it plays an even bigger role. So it's our job to provide the right offerings, make them accessible and be available for them.Speaker 1 (14:45):Does it signal anything about how you might approach other Plaice brands? I know they're very different, but justSpeaker 3 (14:52):Yeah, we have multiple other brands around the world and some are chocolate, some are biscuits, some are cakes. And each brand has to find a way to tap into consumer desire. And our Pladis mission we say, is happiness in every bite. And that's what we're trying to deliver. And each brand has to try and deliver that in its own unique way.Speaker 2 (15:22):Now with a heritage brand such as Godiva, how are you still keeping it modern while staying true to its heritage? Because the snack worlds today is changing so fast, we have new wellness trends all the time, digital shopping, et cetera, et cetera.Speaker 3 (15:39):Well, it's such an important question because the challenge for every brand is to be relevant today. And what got you there in the heritage is helpful, but it doesn't necessarily deliver against what makes you relevant for today. It just makes people notice or gives you a little bit of credibility or trust. So a big part of this brand, re-imagining it a hundred years is about that. It's about contemporizing the brand, making sure that we stand out in today's world, that we're conveying those benefits that meet the needs of today's consumers, that we are using the right codes to communicate Kate and making it easy for consumers to notice us, to think about us, to remember us to desire us.Speaker 2 (16:33):How do you think about the way modern brands are going about marketing? Are there any interesting tidbits or trends that you're noticing?Speaker 3 (16:43):Lots of littles. There's a study by work that talks about the aggregate, let's say the cumulative effect of little bits of exposure on your brand actually deliver more than singular big pieces of visibility. And if a brand can try and do that show up in different places, just little bites, little bite size bits ofSpeaker 4 (17:10):ContentSpeaker 3 (17:11):That comes across a lot, that is a great way for connecting and getting consumers to remember you.Speaker 1 (17:18):We've got these kind of quick fire questions here at the end. And what's one thing that you're obsessed with figuring out in confectionary marketing right now?Speaker 3 (17:30):I'm obsessed with figuring out how to connect with consumers in a meaningful way. And that is evolving. It's very difficult. Consumers are bombarded with so many stimuli that the ability to connect with them in a relevant way is so important.Speaker 2 (17:49):Outside of snacks, do you have a brand that you really admire for nailing culture and doing just that?Speaker 3 (17:58):Yes, I love what Heinz is doing. They're fantastic. They're a great example of leaning into your heritage, creating distinction versus other brands in a category that seemingly doesn't have a lot of variety. They are very strong at having distinctive brand assets that they tap into all the time. Make it easy for consumers to think about them, remember them, and they're great at tapping into culture. They've got great little mini campaigns under their overall brand platform. It has to be hez that keep the brand very vibrant. I love what they're doing.Speaker 1 (18:42):What's the best piece of marketing advice you've ever received and do you still follow it?Speaker 3 (18:47):Message delivered does not mean message received. And I think that that applies not just to marketing, it applies to change management leadership. And it's something that I think about a lot, especially now. So if you think about it from a marketing perspective, a brand manager's perspective, it's easy to fall in the trap that if you create something and you put it out there that consumers are going to notice it, love it, and buy your brand. And what we try and tell them is, this is not Iowa Field of dreams. It's not a build it and they will come. You have to really work hard at creating relevance and getting noticed and the odds are stacked against you. So making sure your message or your intent is received, not just delivered is very important.Speaker 2 (19:42):Very nice. One more for fun. If money were no object, what's a dream marketing move you'd make?Speaker 3 (19:52):So I can give you the traditional answer on top of those lots of littles. It'd be great to have some big mega programs. I would love to have, we're talking about Godiva today. I'd love to have Godiva in the Super Bowl. I'd love to have Lady Godiva show up and present the trophy, the NFL trophy or the US Open Tennis trophy or I'd love that stuff, but I'll go past that. It would be great to have Lady Godiva as a Marvel superhero movie and have her deliver chocolate to save the world. Something's going on and she just comes and gives a little piece of chocolate and everything's okay. And that's itSpeaker 1 (20:36):For this edition of The Big Impression.Speaker 2 (20:38):This show is produced by Molten Hart. Our theme is by love and caliber, and our associate producer is Sydney Cairns,Speaker 3 (20:45):And remember lots of littles. There's a study by work that talks about the aggregate, let's say the cumulative effect of little bits of exposure on your brand actually deliver more than singular big pieces of visibility.Speaker 1 (21:03):I'm Damian and I'm IlyseSpeaker 3 (21:05):And we'llSpeaker 1 (21:05):See you next time.

Ever wondered who is behind the iconic "Fashion Critical" account? This week, Leigh's managed to sneak in Australia’s most mysterious fashion commentator to the Mamamia offices (in disguise... obviously) to spill all her red carpet secrets. They're the anonymous voice we all turn to for the real commentary on everything from the Brownlow to the Met Gala, and they're not holding back. They're breaking down the biggest fashion crimes they see time and time again, from the dreaded "naked dress" to the accessories they'd ban forever. They're revealing how it all started, how their commentary has changed from "savage" to "satirical,". We’re getting the official glossary for all their iconic terms, from what "crotch whiskers" actually are, to why "should have caught the bus" is the ultimate insult. Plus, they spill on the celebrity DMs they've received—including the ones who weren't happy—and why the Oscars red carpet is actually the most boring one of the year.

No Morins this week—just Jess and Sam, trading Gossip Girl “dear listener” asides for a tour of tech's new power map. From Meta's in-store glasses push to Apple's “Find My” doubling as Gen Z's stealth social network, the real story is how distribution and lock-in shape the future. Sam frames “mercantilism 2.0,” where global trade routes of capital now run through Silicon Valley, Tel Aviv, and Riyadh, with figures like Elon Musk and Sam Altman acting as brokers of $10B+ flows.In true Sam fashion, the conversation highlights why LLMs aren't true moats, pointing instead to the infrastructure layer (chips, power, data centers) and the UX layer (distribution, product polish). Nvidia's securitized GPU deals illustrate how structured finance and alliances are reshaping competition.The takeaway: early-stage VC may finally be moving past hype, becoming sober—and therefore interesting—again.Chapters:02:02 – Meta Ray-Bans: friction as onboarding strategy05:31 – Mercantilism 2.0: Tech's new trade routes07:56 – Elon's real genius: moving $10B+ into frontier tech09:27 – Sam Altman as mega-capital trade-route broker12:40 – Starlink V3 and the network-layer power shift16:08 – Could Elon own planetary communications?18:35 – Find My = stealth social network21:04 – Strategy assets over DCF: power, data centers, chips23:41 – LLMs aren't the moat; moats shift lower/higher27:44 – AI's expense revives structured finance30:56 – Nvidia as the East India Company of compute33:50 – Will a handful of players control all the assets?39:57 – Early-stage VC is sober (and exciting) again43:05 – TikTok's heat moved to AI: the attention shiftWe're also on ↓X: https://twitter.com/moreorlesspodInstagram: https://instagram.com/moreorlessSpotify: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/moreorlesspodConnect with us here:1) Sam Lessin: https://x.com/lessin2) Dave Morin: https://x.com/davemorin3) Jessica Lessin: https://x.com/Jessicalessin4) Brit Morin: https://x.com/brit

It's almost Libra season and Stassi is back with C-O-Lo—tired, a little moody, and fully blaming the moon (and TikTok). After a failed attempt at cleaning Hartford's toy-packed room and battling the usual kid chaos, Stassi just wants to feel better—but instead spirals into end-of-the-world theories: rapture, aliens, zombies, or maybe just AI gone wild. The girls talk parenting fatigue, how millennials are closing restaurants, and why old-people-vibe spots are elite. Then they land on Blake Lively's bizarre Gossip Girl throwback IG post—was it nostalgic or just plain manipulative? Plus, Stassi shares her latest fashion finds and her crispy chicken Caesar wrap obsession (that TikTok has apparently been onto for a year).

It has just been confirmed that Jimmy Kimmel's late-night show will be reinstated after being taken off air, following an avalanche of outrage from Hollywood’s biggest stars. But before you start celebrating, there is a catch.Plus, it appears that the stars of two of our comfort shows, Gossip Girl and Gilmore Girls, are teaming up for a new movie, but it’s not quite above board yet, so allow us to explain.Speaking of Gossip Girl, Blake Lively posted a seemingly innocent collection of images to her Instagram account this week and the fallout has been immense.

EPISODE 105 -  “LOUELLA AND HEDDA: THE GOLDEN AGE'S GOSSIP GIRLS” - 9/15/25 This week, we explore the legendary rivalry between Hollywood gossip columnists LOUELLA PARSONS and HEDDA HOPPER. Parsons, backed by media tycoon WILLIAM RANDOLPH HEARST, became a powerful figure in the 1920s with close ties to the studios. Hopper, a former actress, entered the scene later with a more aggressive style and strong political views. The two wielded enormous influence, able to make or break careers with a single column. The episode covers their personal feud, their role in the Hollywood blacklist, and their lasting impact on celebrity journalism. It's a revealing look at how gossip shaped the Golden Age of Hollywood.

This one is for the “almost” versions of us: the ones who dream big, move forward, make progress… and then stall, swirl, or self-soothe with Gossip Girl reruns (guilty). In this Big Conversation, I'm diving into: The subconscious identity of being almost there....and why your mind might secretly like it there, close enough yet not quite having the *big thing happen* Why your biggest dreams could feel unsafe to your nervous system The connection between up-leveling and overwhelm (plus a wild story from my own life in January) What your body is really trying to protect you from...and how to lovingly rewire it Why you might not have the same drive anymore (and how that's not a bad thing) If you've been making strides but feel like something's still holding you back — this one is your mirror, your medicine, and your map. Let's move from almost to all in.

New York, Baby!

In an unusual turn of events here, this week I have doubleVee on the podcast…the entire band! Welcome both Allan and Barb Vest to the podcast. They are a duo with a very interesting past and a wonderful new EP.  Allan was a musical late bloomer while his wife Barb has it in her blood, literally. Her grandmother was a composer. That led to a really beautiful project, later on, for Barb and Allan. And Barb's career started in radio, not on the radio. In a bizarre set of coincidences, the two of them met prior to being formally introduced, in a few unconventional ways while Allan was in his previous band, Starlight Mints.  But once they got together, the musical magic started. They have such a unique sound. That's part of what has helped them master the art of sync. Their music has been in movies including Barnyard, Van Wilder 2: The Rise of Taj, Smiley Face, and The Art of Getting By. They have also made the cut for shows like Malcolm In The Middle, One Tree Hill, Californication, Gossip Girl, and Tim Burton's Wednesday. They have recently released their latest (and possibly last) EP, Periscope At Midnight and it is possibly their best set of songs to date. The six song release is pure doubleVee. The sound is unmistakable. And submarines play a crucial part on the EP and in their discography. We debate whether or not you can do a cover of one of your own songs. They also reveal a few opportunities that didn't work out. Go grab the album, buy it, stream it, get the limited run CD at doublevee.net! Follow them @doublevee_band. Follow us @PerformanceAnx.

Like probably most of you, my 20s was a wild roller coaster of unhinged fashion choices. I kicked off my 20s Gossip Girl style - wearing peplum skirts and heels to my classes at NYU (in 40 degree weather, mind you). I entered my mid-20s as a sneakerhead with a collection that should have probably landed me somewhere on Complex, and then also survived pandemic fashion. Now at 30, my focus is laser sharp on investing in pieces that will last a lifetime and I feel more like myself than ever. In today's episode, I talk through the most impactful style learnings from my last decade that are helping me thrive in this new one. Love the show? Follow us and leave a review!

"The Song Forlorn" Perhaps best known as the Peter portion of the Swedish outfit Peter Bjorn and John, Peter Morén and his band have put out close to ten albums of catchy indie rock that's yielded worldwide hits like "Young Folks," tours around the globe, international television ads and TV and movie placements in everything from Gossip Girl to Bandslam. Raised in the Swedish countryside, Morén grew up listening to Ride, Depeche Mode, The Housemartins and the Stone Roses and his sonorous and melodic body of work reflects his love of well-crafted pop songs. With four fabulous solo albums under his belt, a side project with members of The Shout Out Louds and The Concretes and handling producer duties for Robert Forster's wonderful new album Strawberries, Morén is a busy guy. And I'm leaving things out, I'm sure. But what I'm not leaving out is his second album under the moniker SunYears. The follow up to the dazzling Come Fetch My Soul, The Song Forlorn is a stirring and rousing song-cycle filled with wistful pop, affecting ballads, fuzzed out psych jams and rootsy instrumentals. Featuring guests like Lisa Hannigan, Sam Genders, Nicole Atkins, and Madison Cunningham, The Song Forlorn is an album that's filled with tremendous stylistic range. There's touches of Aztec Camera and Prefab Sprout, Beatle-esque jangle and spare indie folk. It's percussive, melodic and magical work. https://www.roughtrade.com/en-us/product/sunyears/the-song-forlorn IG: @sunyearssongs www.bombshellradio.com (http://www.bombshellradio.com) www.stereoembersmagazine.com www.alexgreenbooks.com (http://www.alexgreenbooks.com) Stereo Embers IG + Bluesky: @emberspodcast Email: editor@stereoembersmagazine.com

This week, I sat down with Sisqo — a.k.a. Mr. Allegedly, Melbourne's Gossip Girl — and we got into it, from why people trust him with their secrets to how he always gets the inside scoop on Melbourne (and Australia's) scene. We unpacked our Bali More To Life experience — the highs, the lows — plus some juicy confessions you won't want to miss. Oh, and of course… we debated holiday romances and whether dating in the industry is ever worth the drama.

Interview with Allen and Barb Vest of Double Vee. Allan was the primary songwriter, lead vocalist, and multi-instrumentalist for indie/orchestral pop band Starlight Mints, producing and releasing four albums between 2000 and 2009, with legendary producer Dave Sardy co-producing the critically acclaimed debut album, The Dream that Stuff was Made Of. Major motion pictures and television series have utilized his music, with TV shows including Malcolm in the Middle, Californication, One Tree Hill and Gossip Girl and movies including Barnyard, Van Wilder 2: The Rise of Taj and The Art of Getting By. The BBC mini-series Demons effectively used "Eyes of the Night" off the 2006 album Drowaton as the series' theme song. Allan's instrumental scores have been featured in Disney animated shorts, writer/director Mickey Reece's movies Seducers Club and Punch Cowboy, and in projects by Canada-based writer/director Erahm Christopher and features helmed by award-winning director Bradley Beesley among other productions. Allan has produced and arranged music for clients including Francine, Skating Polly, Student Film and Bishop Allen. He also composed the theme music for the podcast In Sickness and In Health with Dr. Céline Gounder.   Barb's diverse background includes sixteen years in public radio where her achievements included writing, hosting, and producing Filmscapes, a nationally syndicated film music program. She edited a music webzine for several years and marketed and produced eight garage sale/shows featuring local bands and merchants. While Barb's vocal music history includes appearing in themed cover shows and providing backing vocals on recordings for local bands, her love of music began with her family, with her grandmother regularly putting a tape recorder on her piano bench and singing along to her original compositions, before she passed away after a sudden heart attack at the age of 57.  Barb grew up singing around the piano with her mother and sister.  She enjoyed writing poetry and short stories during her younger years and loves exploring the inventive worlds of lyrics and songwriting with Allan.  When they're not creating new music, Allan and Barb enjoy working with clients…teaching, recording, producing music and videos and more. In their free time, they like to travel, watch movies, hike, and spend time with friends and family. Favorite hiking trails include Angels Landing at Zion National Park, Precipice Trail at Acadia National Park and the Cape Lookout Trail in Oregon. They love concocting meals in the kitchen together and especially savor making Caesar salads at home and trying them anytime they're on the menu at a new restaurant. They're grateful to be producing music and appreciate the support of their listeners.  http://doubleVee.net. http://doubleVee.bandcamp.com. http://YouTube.com/@doubleVeeBand. http://Facebook.com/doubleVeeSongs. http://Instagram.com/doubleVee_band.

Hope your August is not sipping away like a bottle of wine but is in fact still mostly full...the juiciest part of the wine is in the bottleneck. Enjoy this blast from the past when we started our coverage of Gossip Girl! The pilot is such a good episode of TV and we had a time covering it. You know you love us...Julia Gray (Washington Post, The Ringer) and Drew H. begin a new chapter of the podcast and dive DEEP into one of the greatest TV pilots in history--the very first episode of The CW's GOSSIP GIRL. The hotties get into the Blair/Serena dichotomy, why the characters treat Connecticut like Mongolia, actor height, Rufus hatred, and so much more.

This month on The Dread Broadcast, we're joined by special guest Chris Riggi—actor in Abduct, American Crime Story, Vampires Suck, Gossip Girl, and (according to the internet) possibly the new Superman AND an F1 driver. We get into it.

Do you have a friend that everyone just seems to LOVE - and so you end up feeling a little overshadowed?Do you have parents that are overly critical and not so great at showing you unconditional love - and so you often feel like you're disappointing them and fighting for their approval?If so - you likely heavily relate to the character of Blair Waldorf from Gossip Girl. And in today's episode - I'm talking about the insecurities and challenges Blair faces, and how we would work on them in a coaching setting. And if you relate to her character in any small way - I'm going to be offering you ways to overcome your own insecurities - and get out of the shadows of the people around you.Mentioned in the episode:The MYRMD Society - Sign up

This week, we explore the legend of Axe Murder Hollow — the chilling tale of a jealousy crazed, axe-wielding farmer that has passed down through generations in Erie Pennsylvania, and spread through northern Appalachia. What began as a ghost story passed between teens in the 1940s has since become one of the state's most infamous tales — blending true crime, folklore, hauntings, and ghostly revenge.  We'll get into the rumors and theories that sprung up about what haunts Axe Murder Hollow. From the tale of Billy the Butcher to a 1963 double homicide that might have cemented the Hollow's deadly reputation.  Plus: High school newspaper gossip columns (1940s Gossip Girl vibes) turned paranormal record-keepers, vanishing spirits, phantom footsteps, and a spectral man in white with a headlamp and a gun.  It's part haunted history, part local lore, and all chills.

Jessica Szohr has starred in Gossip Girl, The Orville, Shameless, and more—but she's never talked about the money lessons she's learned behind the scenes… until now. In this episode, Jessica opens up about what she learned about money modeling as a child, the financial realities of Hollywood, and how Gossip Girl shaped her perspective on wealth and status. She shares untold behind the scenes stories from the set, like the unbelievable way she was discovered, and reflects on the loss of her costar Michelle Trachtenberg. It's a candid, surprising, and deeply human conversation about fame, finances, and finding your voice.

"Jane" gets it that gossip is technically not great, but there are often times when talking shit feels like a beautiful therapeutic practice. Is it really that harmful to share stories and observations about other people? Jessica explores the line between harmful gossip and sharing perspectives on this week's Ghost!
