In our Monthly Marketing Series, we'll be taking a look at the upcoming month and discussing tips and tactics to plan for holidays, seasonal trends, and a general marketing calendar to help bike shops stay ahead of the game and ready to capture sales. This month, we plan for August 2026.End of Summer Clearance Sale - The Tour de France is over, and summer is winding down. For some retailers, invoices for big orders are due, and there is a need to turn some slow-moving inventory into cash. Fall is just around the corner, and now is the time to sell off spring/summer apparel to make way for fall/winter apparel.Action Item: Analyze your inventory for slow movers and spring/summer apparel. Depending on the quantity, consider a general category markdown or individual sale prices. Sale prices don't need to be at closeout discounts…perhaps start at 20% off. Once you've whittled down your core sizes, mark down the extreme sizes to 30-40% off. Back to School Campaign - Know when your school districts are heading back to school… some districts can be as early as mid-July… historically it's mid-August. Consider the following: Kids Bicycle Trade-In campaign - Where all trade-in bikes go to a local charity. Free kids bike safety check - This should be a 10-15 minute check, checking: tire wear/tear, tire pressure, bolts are secure, brakes are in good order, and chain is lubed. Opportunity to sell brake pads, bells, and bags/baskets. Helmet Discounts - Discounts on helmets when trading in old helmetsLock DiscountsPannier bags, etc.Action Item: Find a local charity that is looking for bike donations. Make sure service staff understands the opportunity to sell pads, lube, etc. on safety checks.

New Riff recently added to it's "high note" collection by releasing a 10 year old, limited edition cask strength bourbon. Coming in at 116.9 proof and carrying one of the oldest age statements since New Riff began, this bourbon is what we've been waiting for. But how does it taste? We will give you the low down. In addition to the New Riff bourbon, we also elected to taste and review Silver Springs Rye which comes from an NDP in Tennessee. However, it is rumored to be distilled at New Riff. So join us for this episode as we delve into these bottles and also discuss recent releases at Buffalo Trace, Lunchables, and Anthony's anxiety for Total Wine.

In this episode of Five Minute Fridays, we explore an incredible milestone in the craft spirits movement: the triumphant resurgence of aged craft whiskeys. Leading the charge is Northern Kentucky's own New Riff Distilling with their highly anticipated, limited-edition 10-Year-Old High Note Bourbon and Rye releases. We dive deep into the production details, mash bills, and proof strengths, alongside an honest review of the sensory tasting experiences.The Rise of Double-Digit Craft WhiskeyFor years, major legacy distilleries dominated the double-digit age statement landscape. However, craft powerhouses like New Riff, Starlight, and Peerless are proving that patience pays off in the craft whiskey world. As these distilleries cross the 10-year mark, they are unleashing rich, deep flavor profiles that rival any bottle on the shelf.Head-to-Head: The Mash Bills & ProofsNew Riff's latest decade-old duo showcases the distillery's flagship recipes, allowed to mature to peak complexity:10-Year-Old Kentucky Straight Bourbon: Clocking in at 116.9 proof, this expression features a high-rye mash bill of 65% corn, 30% rye, and 5% malted barley.10-Year-Old Kentucky Straight Rye: This 118-proof powerhouse utilizes a traditional 95% rye and 5% malted rye mash bill.Tasting & Sensory ReviewInspired by John from the Embellished Podcast, this review emphasizes the crucial value of revisiting high-integrity whiskey over multiple days to truly unlock its full, evolving complexity.New Riff 10-Year Bourbon NotesNose: Rich aroma highlighted by deep tobacco, plum, and a bright layer of citrus rind.Palate: A complex interplay of mature oak tannins, dark cherry, and honeyed peach.Finish: Long, spicy, and satisfyingly warm with a heavy rye-driven influence.New Riff 10-Year Rye NotesNose: Expressive and punchy with dominant spearmint, vanilla, and sweet honey.Palate: A beautifully juicy, well-rounded mouthfeel layered with sweet cinnamon sugar, lemon zest, and hints of ripe peach.Finish: Distinctly spiced and balanced. While our host personally leans toward the bourbon, both bottles are undeniable contenders for whiskey of the year.Limited Release DetailsThese high-integrity, barrel-proof, and non-chill-filtered whiskeys are limited-run creations. If you are a resident of or visitor to Northern Kentucky, do not miss your chance to head to the distillery, secure these rare bottles, and taste history in the making.Featured Resources & ConnectionsDistillery Info: https://newriffwhiskeyclub.com/

Idan Toklomati's fancy footwork finished off a nice team goal and 10-man Charlotte FC held on thanks to Kahlina denying Carles Gil's Free Kick. It was the perfect way to head into the extended summer break as the World Cup takes center stage. The win also served as Wilfried Zaha's farewell match in Charlotte, which is going to play heavy into the 2nd half of the season once MLS play resumes. John and Danny will break it all down, say farewell to Wilf, hype up Tim Ream's selection to the USMNT, and maybe even a shoutout to new Premier League Champions Arsenal.

High notes are exciting, impressive, and sometimes the thing young trumpet players chase more than anything else. But are they really the point? In this episode, James Newcomb welcomes Dave Norman back to talk about the trumpet's upper register, not as a circus trick, but as one part of a larger musical vocabulary. Dave discusses the physical demands of playing high, the danger of brute force, the importance of recovery, and why sound, time, pitch, rhythm, and musical taste matter far more than range alone. High notes have their place, but they are not the whole story.Episode Highlights:Why young trumpet players often become obsessed with the upper register The physical cost of forcing high notes through pressure and tension How compression, coordination, air, and embouchure work together Why high notes should grow out of solid fundamentals, not replace them Dave Norman's reminder that most real trumpet work happens between low C and high CLet's Talk Trumpet is a production of Arete Brass.

Brandy Norwood's memoir, Phases, is the kind of celebrity memoir that makes you grateful for the music and furious about the machine behind it. My friend Kate and I revisit Brandy's cultural landmarks like Moesha, Cinderella, and “The Boy Is Mine,” then zoom out to the bigger question: what happens when an industry profits from a “good girl” image and leaves no room for a young Black woman to be human, messy, or still becoming. A big thread is the tension between what Brandy says and what she seems to avoid saying. We talk about how Phases feels careful, as if certain bridges still cannot be burned, even decades later. But we also highlight the memoir's strongest emotional material, especially around identity and image. When the memoir does go deep, it hits hard. The takeaway is not that Phases answers everything, but that it opens the door to better questions about artistry, survival, and what reclaiming your narrative really costs.Purchase Phases by BrandySupport the show:On PatreonBuy us a bookBuy cute merchSubscribe to the Babes in Bookland SubstackThank you for listening!xx, AlexConnect with us and suggest a great memoir!Follow us on instagram! @babesinbooklandpod

Nearly 60 years ago, USC and the Greene Street United Methodist Church were caught up in a legal battle over whether the church's building could remain standing in the path of the university's campus expansion. Decades later, both sides agreed to an elegant solution.
Back in the early 90s, while attending college in London, Ontario, Canada, my buddy Aaron and I'd made the drive back and forth to Toronto on a regular basis, and it was on these numerous rides that we'd stack the pockets with our cassettes - road trip soundtracks, and one of our favourites was Two Seven's Clash by Culture. Fire up the engine, insert the tape and kick off with See Them A Come, one of my all-time favourite cuts, and we'd be jacked up and ready to roll. During college, Aaron, I, and another buddy, Marcus, journeyed to Toronto to catch Culture at The Great Hall - to say this was a magical musical night would be doing it a disservice. We had balcony seats right above the stage, so we could catch everything up close. Seeing Hill with the backup singers, lock-step groove, sweet harmonies - it was an out-of-body experience, that could have been down to the little spliff that we'd partaken in beforehand, but whatever the reason, this concert, the countless hours of being on the road have left music of Culture indelibly marked in my musical consciousness. So today I shine the musical spotlight back to the early years of Culture in the mix Culture: Roots Reggae's Most Righteous Voice Jamaica in the mid-70s was a pressure cooker. Political violence, poverty, and a deep spiritual hunger for something beyond the immediate reality of Kingston's yards and tenements all found a voice in roots reggae, and few groups channelled that voice more purely than Culture. The group came together in 1976, initially calling themselves the African Disciples: Joseph Hill on lead vocals, his cousin Albert “Ralph” Walker, and Roy “Kenneth” Dayes on harmonies. Hill had already put in his time as a percussionist with the Soul Defenders, the house band at the legendary Studio One, and had been working the sound system circuit for years before stepping out front. He knew the machinery of Jamaican music from the inside. They rebranded as Culture, found their producers in Joe Gibbs and engineer Errol Thompson, and cut a run of singles that crackled with urgency, among them “Two Sevens Clash.” The song predicted apocalyptic consequences for 7 July 1977. When that date arrived, large numbers of Jamaicans reportedly stayed home. Shops closed. People waited. The record had crossed the line from music into prophecy. Those singles became the backbone of their 1977 debut album, also titled Two Sevens Clash — dense with Rastafarian theology, political fury, and some of the tightest three-part harmonies in reggae. Rolling Stone would later name it one of the 50 all-time coolest records ever made, the only reggae album to make that list. Not a bad debut. After the Gibbs sessions, Culture moved to producer Sonia Pottinger's High Note label, one of the very few labels run by women in Jamaican music at the time. She brought in the best session players available: Robbie Shakespeare and Sly Dunbar in the rhythm section, Ansel Collins on keys, Cedric Brooks on horns, and percussionist Sticky. The result was a run of records that still holds up: Harder Than the Rest (1978), Cumbolo (1979), and International Herb (1979). Three albums in roughly two years, each one focused and fully realised. The UK connection proved crucial. Two Sevens Clash had been finding its way into the hands of British punk fans as much as reggae fans, largely through John Peel's BBC Radio 1 show, and it charted at number 60 on the UK Albums Chart in April 1978. Virgin Records signed the group to its Front Line imprint, giving Culture international distribution just as their output was peaking. At the time of the first Rolling Stone Record Guide, Culture was the only act in any genre whose entire catalogue received five-star reviews across the board. The original lineup dissolved in 1981, but reunited in 1986 and returned with two strong albums rather than coasting on reputation. The 1990s brought further records on Shanachie and Ras Records, often with Sly and Robbie back in the rhythm section. Joseph Hill died in August 2006 while on tour in Europe, collapsing mid-performance. What happened next became part of the Culture story in its own right. His son Kenyatta stepped up and completed the remaining nineteen shows of the tour. Critics and fans were stunned. The voices were eerily similar, the conviction just as real. The phrase that circulated afterwards said it plainly: magic, not tragic. Kenyatta has led the group ever since, alongside original founding member Albert Walker. Fifty years on, Two Sevens Clash still sounds like a warning.

In this episode of the Canadian Investor Podcast, EQ Bank announced a major acquisition on the same day as earnings — buying PC Financial and locking in an exclusive partnership with PC Optimum. We break down what the deal really means, why Loblaw becoming a major shareholder matters, and how this positions EQ Bank against Canada’s much larger incumbents. We also dig into earnings from TD and Royal Bank, where strong capital markets are masking softer lending conditions — and why 2026 could look very different for Canadian banks. Are we nearing a reset year? Finally, we cover BRP’s latest results and what looks like a classic cyclical recovery: improving margins, inventory normalization, rising market share, and upgraded guidance — even as the broader consumer picture remains uneven.
