Podcasts about Hasbro

Today's special guest co host is Linds from  @lindssoapbox  and we're talking Marvel Legends. Everything from how we think Hasbro is doing with female figures, Fantastic Four, and more. Make sure you're following her on all social media and podcast platforms.

One of the great laws of advertising is that everyone wants to reach and understand young consumers.Earlier this month on the podcast, host Jack Benjamin spoke with Hasbro's global heads of media to get the perspective of one brand with a vested interest in speaking to younger cohorts. And last week, he also prodded Channel 4 about its own research into Gen Z. But there's more to unpack, particularly around issues of child safety online and how gaming is becoming increasingly impossible for media planners to ignore. So, consider this sort of like an informal summer series.Kate O'Loughlin is CEO of SuperAwesome, a company that offers ad and gaming products, audience insights and compliance capabilities for marketers wanting to reach the next generation of consumers. Formerly owned by Epic Games, SuperAwesome was acquired by its own leadership at the beginning of last year.O'Loughin and spoke with Benjamin about what sets younger consumers apart, how to reach them in gaming environments and on social platforms, and – importantly – how to do so in a way that is respectful of their privacy and user safety.Highlights:6:58: Mistakes brands make when targeting young consumers9:42: Addressing user safety concerns: data privacy, age verification and harmful content20:27: Fragmented fandoms amid the growth of the creator economy27:22: Making gaming a consistent investment: know your role as a brandRelated articles:Twitch CEO Dan Clancy: Why brands should reach ‘entertainers who happen to game'Gen Z aren't just teens — they're customers and big gamersTwitch streamer's message to brands: ‘Trust us'Forget the ‘good old days': What Gen Z's financial outlook means for brandsChannel 4 commercial chief: Advertisers chase ‘cheap reach' at Gen Z's peril-----> Discover how Trisonic can elevate your brand and expand your business by connecting with your ideal audienceVisit The Media Leader for the most authoritative news analysis and comment on what's happening in commercial media.

This week on Breaking Battlegrounds, Chuck Warren is joined by guest co-host Shay Khatari for a compelling lineup of guests and conversations.

Next, Hollywood executive and author Chris Fenton joins the show to discuss his RealClearPolitics piece, “Why This Lifelong Democrat Voted for Trump,” sharing how his global media career, stand against Chinese censorship, and new American-made film Bad Counselors reflect his deeper concern for freedom, fairness, and national sovereignty. Then, Sarah Hunt, President of the Joseph Rainey Center for Public Policy, breaks down why smart energy policy rooted in national security and innovation is essential in the global AI race—especially against China—and how her organization is working to revive the American Dream by empowering emerging leaders.

Why is The Maryland Toy Expo one of the best toy shows on the east coast for Star Wars collectors? The summer toy show season kicked off in a major way, with a June trip to the town of Timonium for The Maryland Toy Expo. The Expo offered Star Wars and toy collectors the opportunity to hunt for Kenner and Hasbro items across two massive buildings, featuring more than 300 vendor tables packed with carded and loose figures, prototypes, boxed vehicles and playsets, international items, and other desirable rarities. Join host David Quinn for part one of The Maryland Toy Expo experience, as he explores the show during the Friday afternoon vendor setup. This is why you need to be in Timonium for the fall show.

07 yes the first Transformers movie and its toy line....how did they do? was it a good line or a bad one?

In this episode of BRANDED, Ben Kaplan and Tom Cain dive into the biggest business and culture stories of the week, blending serious insight with sharp wit. They discuss Meta's aggressive push to poach OpenAI talent with $100M offers, the Trump family launching a gold-plated smartphone and mobile network, and why Airbus is feeling confident while Boeing flounders. Plus, they explore the impact of rising tariffs on Hasbro's workforce and Elon Musk's relentless AI spending spree. As always, the show ties in viral holidays, major birthdays, and whether Tom would board a pilotless plane.

There was a time when Hasbro envisioned a cinematic universe. Battleship was a cog in that misguided wheel, an expensive one at that. Unfortunately, or perhaps fortunately for all us movie goers, Battleship sank before it even hit the seas. Critics and audiences alike found little joy or interest in a $200 million dollar blockbuster based on a slow-paced board game. To be fair, they were all correct. Battleship is a slog of a movie; and its nonsensical plot cannot be saved by the bombastic effects and action. Odds are that within minutes, you'll be sending an SOS to your TV to find something more entertaining. Now, sit back, arm your tastebuds with a Blind Pirate Blood Orange IPA from Monday Night Brewing, and don't promise any late night snacks if you can't deliver! The Thunderous Wizard, Chumpzilla, and Bling Blake are sinking alien ships and dropping super cool one-liners — mahalo mother f%$&er!

En la edición de hoy del Radar Empresarial, analizamos el caso de Hasbro, la última gran compañía en tomar decisiones difíciles ante el impacto de los aranceles comerciales. El gigante del sector juguetero ha anunciado el despido del 3% de su plantilla global, lo que equivale a unos 150 empleados de un total cercano a los 5.000. El epicentro del problema sigue siendo China. Aunque Hasbro ha reducido su dependencia del país asiático —hace apenas unos años el 90% de su producción se realizaba allí—, aún fabrica cerca del 50% de sus productos en ese territorio. Esta exposición, en un contexto de tensiones comerciales, llevó a la empresa a plantearse un objetivo ambicioso: reducir su producción en China a menos del 40%. Actualmente, Hasbro distribuye su manufactura en ocho países, pero el número podría aumentar a nueve o diez, según señaló su CEO, Chris Cocks, durante una conferencia con analistas en abril. En ella, subrayó que la empresa está en una posición sólida, aunque reconoció que el entorno es complejo y exige decisiones estratégicas firmes. El malestar con los aranceles también se extiende a otros actores de la industria. Learning Resources, otro fabricante de juguetes, ha impugnado ante la Corte Suprema los aranceles impuestos por Donald Trump, argumentando que fueron aprobados sin pasar por el Congreso. Aunque el caso tiene escasas posibilidades legales, revela la incomodidad del sector. Trump, por su parte, ha reconocido que estas medidas podrían hacer que los juguetes sean más caros y menos accesibles para los niños estadounidenses. Frente a este panorama, muchas empresas están apostando por el sector digital. Hasbro, de hecho, logró superar las expectativas del primer trimestre gracias a sus productos digitales. El mercado global de juguetes inteligentes alcanzó los 19.000 millones de dólares y crece a un ritmo del 14,4% anual.

Analizamos a las compañías Texas Instruments, Hasbro, General Mills y Amazon. Lo hacemos de la mano de Celso Otero, gestor de fondos de Renta 4.

This is it, folks! The PSYCHIC RESCUE episode!

Join Glen and Jason on this episode of the Smugglers' Galaxy Podcast as they review the latest Star Wars news from across the internet!

This week on the podcast, we're remembering Harris Yulin, recapping Ghostbusters Day 2025, and talking about a GBFans thread asking if Ghostbusters has gone into dormancy once again. First up, Troy and Chris pay a little tribute to Ghostbusters II's Judge Stephen “The Hammer” Wexler, played by the incredible character actor Harris Yulin, who passed last week at the age of 87. Then in somewhat of a news segment, the boys recap all the things that were revealed at Ghostbusters Day 2025 including Jason Reitman, McKenna Grace, and Carrie Coon showing up to meet and greet the fans, glowing Hasbro offerings, Crocs, and the Ghostbusters Give Back initiative, a great way for fan franchises to see their good deeds marked by the official Ghost Corps headquarters. Then, in the second half of the show, we ask each other a question that seems to be taxing our favorite message board haunt: has Ghostbusters gone dormant again? And do kids these days even know what dormancy of an IP is? Yeah, we're old. That comes up too. But doesn't it always?

The main event is finally here. And it's the pinnacle of one of the greatest Star Wars collectors weekends ever. In May of 2024, 200 collectors traveled to Kennesaw, Georgia for Rogue Fun, a multi-day Star Wars trip centering on collecting and connecting. And on Saturday, May the Fourth, the Georgia Alliance hosted a 7-hour ballroom event, featuring dinner, room sales and five incredible Star Wars-themed panel presentations. The panels covered the history of Star Wars and the Sears holiday catalogs, two legendary action figure customizers, the artist who introduced Boba Fett to the world in 1978, and Steve Sansweet and the authors of two of the most iconic books about collectibles. And the presentations ended with a wildly funny and insightful chat with two former Kenner creatives who worked on the Kenner line and helped design some of the most beloved Star Wars figures and playsets. The evening concluded with every collector's dream: an epic room sales event in the ballroom. From Kenner to Hasbro, and from prototypes and production pieces, the event had enough Star Wars items for sale to fill an entire store! Join host David Quinn for an in-depth look at day three of the memorable Rogue Fun weekend. Featuring live moments and stories from Star Wars fans and collectors Rich Alot, Howard Bollinger, Lewis Brown, John Celestri, Tim Effler, Matt Fox, Jerry Hancock, Josie Harmon, Paul Harrison, Don Henderson, Erik Janniche, Bruce Lieberman, Jonathan McElwain, Doug Meyer, Maggie Moore, Shawn Moynihan, Narayan S.

This week on the Toy Power Podcast; we recap our attendance at the Adelaide Mega Toy Fair event. This annual event promotes itself for its long running campaign; but with new organisers this year, how did it actually go? We chat towards what we spotted, what we think needs to be improved & what we scored!! Spoiler alert: Pub Lunch & making a day of it with great friends, is always the overall highlight!! Then Trent does an awesome Toyline Retrospective on the early 80's franchise that was: Blackstar! With a Filmation Cartoon airing first in 1981; then a corresponding Toyline from Galoob in 1983! Featuring the fight between our Hero: John Blackstar against the Evil Ruler: Overlord on the Planet Sagar. This Toyline & franchise actually has more ties to Masters Of The Universe than one may think.... There are some EPIC Beasts, questionable modes of transport & the incredibly sort after Ice Castle Playset - this Franchise really tried hard & its interesting to think in a sliding doors parallel reality - could this have been a more popular franchise than Masters Of The Universe?! Then rounding out the episode, we squeeze a quick round table, around some of our Latest Scores!

Jennifer Vertentes was a police officer in Providence Rhode Island when she decided to go to Hasbro Children's Hospital on Thanksgiving Day of 2018 to meet kids who had to spend their Thanksgiving being treated for different reasons, including being treated for Pediatric Cancer. While she was there she met 3 year old Emerson Lucier who was going through her 3rd battle with Acute Myeloid Leukemia . This meeting inspired Jennifer to start her HERO PACKAGE FOUNDATION to help put a smile on the faces of these kids who were battling these difficult diseases. Jennifer, who in 2023 had to retire from the Police Department after suffering an injury while trying to save a person who was drowning, was also diagnosed with Ovarian Cancer that year. Fortunately for the Pediatric Cancer community, she continues to help these kids as she deals with her disease, that fortunately was diagnosed at a very early stage. 

Hasbro lit up Ghostbusters Day with a tease of more Ecto Glow Ghostbusters, proving once again that when it comes to nostalgia, Hasbro ain't afraid of no fan service. Plus, AMC is tempting moviegoers with a 17-inch Galactus popcorn bucket. Because if you're lining up for Fantastic Four, that might be the only head you're getting. And NECA's Comic-Con exclusive has the Turtles ready to hang 10. But at this point, maybe it's time to just hang it up. It's The Reluctant Adult Podcast.
