Podcasts about important moments

It started with a fuzzy little monster, hiding in the pages of a picture book inspired by Nordic fairy tales. She wasn't famous. She didn't have a movie deal. But when one K-pop superstar hugged her on Instagram… everything changed.This week on Making It In The Toy Industry, I'm diving into the jaw-dropping rise of Labubu, the “ugly-cute” character from POP MART that took the toy world (and TikTok) by storm. From a picture book to plushies on Birkin bags, this fuzzy fanged friend is a case study in viral success. And today, I'm telling you exactly how it happened.It all started with a single Instagram Story where BLACKPINK's Lisa was hugging a giant Labubu plush. No paid campaign, no official launch. Yet within days, stores were selling out, TikTok was flooded with unboxings, and POP MART was on its way to making $1.6 billion in 24 hours. This episode breaks down exactly how that viral moment spiraled into global demand and what POP MART did next to fuel the frenzy.From city-exclusive blind box drops that had fans lining up before sunrise, to high-fashion collabs that turned this plush into a statement piece, this is a real-world case study in smart scarcity, community-first branding, and emotional design. The Labubu story proves that a toy doesn't need IP power or Hollywood backing to go big, it just needs to tap into the right emotions, channels, and timing.

Before we dive into one of the most creative plush lines I've ever seen, we need to talk about something serious — TARIFFS.In this episode of Making It in The Toy Industry, I'm kicking things off with an urgent update about the current U.S.–China tariff situation and how it could affect your toy business. I'm sharing what I would do right now if I were launching a toy brand from scratch and why diversifying your manufacturing isn't optional anymore, it's essential.Then, I take you inside my exclusive Toy Fair interview with Lisa Doiron, VP of Global Brand Marketing at Basic Fun. Lisa introduced me to ThreadZ, a limited-edition plush line that taps into Gen Alpha's love of individuality and that “get-it-before-it's-gone” energy. ThreadZ is made with excess fabrics, which means each drop is limited-run and totally unique. Designed to feel fashion-forward and one-of-a-kind, this plush line taps perfectly into Gen Alpha's craving for self-expression. It's also a brilliant example of how big brands like Basic Fun can rethink traditional production models in smart, sustainable, and trend-savvy ways.You'll hear why it's time to rethink your manufacturing game, how to make your toy line tariff-proof and flexible, what Gen Alpha really wants, and how you can steal a genius small-batch strategy from a big brand and make it your own.If you're ready to future-proof your toy biz and get inspired by one of the freshest plush concepts on the market, this episode is for you! Hit play now and get inspired by a big-brand strategy you can actually use!Listen for these Important Moments![00:01:16] -  Tariffs are shifting fast—and they could hit your bottom line hard.

Behind every “yes” in the toy industry, there's a mountain of “no's,” countless hours of hustle, and more trial and error than most people expect. At one point, he came close to walking away from it all—until a single line from an episode of Bluey reminded him that making games was exactly what he was meant to do.In this episode Making It In The Toy Industry, I'm joined by the incredibly talented Jeremy Posner, owner of Shenanigans Toys and Games, the inventor behind hit games like Beagle or Bagel, Bears in Barrels, and Piggy Piggy. He's been named to the Mojo Nation 100 SIX times, won Game Innovator of the Year at the TAGIEs, and has worked with some of the biggest names in the toy industry like Hasbro, Mattel, and Spin Master. But here's the plot twist: it took Jeremy EIGHT years to meet his royalty goals. And that's after winning major awards and getting meetings with big companies right out the gate.You're gonna hear why just licensing a game doesn't mean you've made it, what really makes a game “sellable” to toy companies, and why most ideas just don't cut it. Jeremy also explained the real deal with royalties or advances, and how long it actually takes to see a check.  He even shared how he trained his brain to be more creative (yes, that's a thing!).Dreaming of creating the next game night hit or just curious what it really takes to make it in toys and games?Hit play and steal a few smart moves for your next big creative leap.Listen for these Important Moments! [00:03:07] - Despite early wins, including a TAGIE award and a background at Big Monster Toys, Jeremy didn't hit his financial goals from game licensing until eight years in. [00:11:17] - After Toy Fair, Jeremy reflects on the silence that often follows a pitch. He explains how learning why you're hearing “no” (and from whom) is key to improving your ideas and not losing steam.[00:23:00] - Around year four, Jeremy stopped “just creating” and started strategically designing evergreens. He audited his creative process, studied the brain, and trained himself to boost creative output daily.[00:33:04] - Jeremy tests tons of game ideas fast by building quick, minimum viable prototypes. He runs super short playtests to see what's worth developing and keep his creativity flowing.[00:40:35] - Near the end of the episode, Jeremy shares his dream of designing fan experiences for sports teams and creating original game shows, proving he's still dreaming big, even after major success in toys and games.Send The Toy Coach Fan Mail!

What if a simple classroom activity could unite generations across decades? In this episode of Making It in the Toy Industry, we're celebrating 30 years of Blurt with its inventor, Tim Walsh, and uncovering the incredible story behind the game that connects Boomers to Gen Alpha.Discover how a third-grade classroom exercise—reading dictionary definitions aloud—sparked the creation of a timeless game that's built kids' vocabularies, brought families together, and even supported memory retention for older adults. Tim takes us through the evolution of Blurt, from its humble beginnings as a prototype called DeFUNitions to becoming a household staple.But this episode isn't just about one game. It's about the unsung heroes of the toy industry—inventors who remain “criminally unrecognized” despite shaping cultural phenomena like UNO and LEGO. Tim and I explore why toy creators deserve the same recognition as musicians and authors, how Euro games are leading the way in celebrating designers, and what the industry can learn from them.Tim also shares invaluable lessons for aspiring toy creators: why resilience and persistence are critical, why timing can make or break a product, and why you should always focus on generating multiple ideas instead of pinning your hopes on just one. You'll also hear how toys like Operation have inspired careers in fields like healthcare and engineering and how play is essential for creativity, connection, and overcoming life's challenges.Whether you're a toy enthusiast, an entrepreneur, or someone who values the power of play, this episode will leave you inspired to think differently about toys—and the brilliant minds behind them.Listen for these Important Moments! [01:44] - The Surprising Anonymity of Toy Designers[04:16] - The Origin Story of Blurt[07:33] - Blurt's Impact and Evolution[21:58] - Challenges and Successes in the Toy Industry[24:10] - The Power of Play in Creativity and Connection[26:17] - Insights from Toyland: Interviews with Legendary Inventors[28:33] - The Concept of 'Entreplayneur' and Embracing Playfulness[34:31] - Play Throughout Life: Lessons from Blurt and Beyond[38:12] - Advice for Aspiring Toy and Game Inventors[40:40] - The Influence of Childhood Toys on Future CareersSend The Toy Coach Fan Mail!Support the showPopular Masterclass!

2024 marks 40 years since Ohio's collective bargaining law took effect. Before that, public employees, including educators, could face jail time for going on strike, and the so-called professional agreements they had been able to negotiate with school districts didn't carry much weight. All of that changed with a stroke of Gov. Richard Celeste's pen in 1983, with the law taking effect the following year. OEA-Retired member Bill Lavezzi shares his memories of working in Ohio schools before and after the legal protections that were granted under Ohio's collective bargaining law.

In this sermon, the importance of pivotal moments in our lives is explored, moments that have rippling effects throughout our existence. Pastor Todd emphasizes that we cannot save ourselves through our own efforts, and that true salvation comes from surrendering our lives to Jesus Christ, which has an eternal impact. The message also highlights our immense value to God, who desires to bless us beyond our limited understanding or resources. Ultimately, the sermon encourages us to recognize and cherish the moments when we encounter God's presence, as these moments can profoundly transform our lives and the lives of those around us.

Some thoughts on time

Well, this is it. The 500th Episode of Motorsport101. And in an idea that came together by the wonderful RJ O'Connell, we decided to recount and retell the 50 most important moments in the nine and a half year history of the show. Back in October 2014, Dre Harrison and Ryan King decided to start a podcast for Dre's final-year University project. We never thought a decade on, we'd still be doing this. From the 2014 Russian GP, to Cam and RJ's debuts, to Kurt Busch's ex-girlfriend being a trained assassin, all the way to Abu Dhabi 2021, Marc Marquez leaving Honda and so many of us actually finding a better place for ourselves in and outside of Motorsport. This is an archive of the moments that made us, and made Motorsport what it's become in the last decade. And make no mistake, we couldn't have done it without you, the audience. This place has grown so much in the last decade and we know there's 100 plus places you can get your Motorsport news and opinion fix... you chose us. That means the world. From the bottom of our hearts, from everyone at M101, thank you for inviting us into your homes, whether it be just once, or 500 times. You're the best audience in the world, and we love you. Here's to the next 500, Dre x

The most important moments in your life are not the highlights, rather they are the down moments. The moments that challenge you mentally, physically, or emotionally demand that you rise to the occasion. If you don't, you will fall and lose the ground that you've worked so hard to gain. It's easier to stay at the top of the mountain than it is to climb it, but how you handle the hardest moments in your life will determine how high you can climb.

 This second part of our interview really hits home. For the first time is US history the average American is spending more than 30% of income on rent! There is a shortage of about 5 to 7 million units providing affordable housing in the United States. So then how do these families afford to pay for groceries, gas, healthcare, and education for their children. When people are moving constantly throughout their lives it effects the psychology, stability, and safety of that household. This is something that we need to understand as a culture and be able to provide more stability in this world and it starts with the housing. Bo Parfet takes time to dive into what is going to happen over the next 5 years in the homeless and unhoused population. Everyone is pointing fingers at all the trades and builders, but really it is something even deeper than just the cost of developing these units. There is so so much to this second half of the interview that is absolutely incredible!! This turned into an amazing real estate conversation and we absolutely had a breakthrough. You cannot miss this episode and it needs to be heard by everyone!! You can create an impact every day! Just think!!
