Explore the "middle" phase of intellectual property protection. The period between filing and final protection is a crucial phase where strategy, negotiation, and risk management take shape. Using pop culture references ranging from Quentin Tarantino films to Willy Wonka and Jurassic Park, hosts Michael Snyder and Joseph Gushe connect famous middle acts in entertainment to the middle stages of the patent, trademark, trade secret, and copyright processes. This episode of IP Goes Pop!® breaks down:  What "patent pending" actually means from publication to examination How the patent examination process can strengthen a patent How the "middle" for trade secrets effectively becomes the entire lifecycle of protection The importance of preserving trade secret rights via NDAs, restricted access, and confidentiality measures  Common law trademark rights versus federal registration Trademark examination process and USPTO requirements The crossovers between copyright process "middle" and trademarks Along the way, the hosts question whether Willy Wonka's factory tours would survive modern confidentiality practices and whether Jurassic Park had one of the least effective trade secret protection programs in movie history. Whether you are protecting technology, building a brand, or managing confidential business information, this episode offers a practical look at the "middle" phase of IP protection where rights are often shaped, tested, and strengthened the most.

Avui dijous informem que l'hostaleria gironina només cobreix un de cada quatre llocs de treball vacants. La manca de personal afecta especialment els perfils de cambrers, cuiners i personal de neteja, que concentren la major part de la demanda però també les principals dificultats de contractació. Segons les empreses del sector, aquesta situació es deu principalment a la falta de candidatures, la insuficient formació específica i la manca d'experiència dels aspirants. Això provoca dificultats per completar les plantilles, reorganització constant dels torns de treball i, en alguns casos, limitacions en el servei durant els períodes de més activitat turística. La federació considera que es tracta d'un problema estructural que afecta la competitivitat del sector turístic a la demarcació. Nosaltres volem saber la situació a Lloret de Mar. Entrevistem Marc Linares, president del gremi de restaurants. Altres temes d'interès: Salut: Lloret de Mar acollirà per primera vegada el Dia Internacional del Ioga amb el suport del Consolat de l'Índia. Serà el proper 20 de juny al Mirador de Mallorca.

El Teatre de Lloret de Mar acollirà aquest diumenge la representació de ‘La Fàbrica de Xocolata’, un espectacle en llengua russa impulsat per l'associació teatral Casamiga. La proposta reunirà sobre l'escenari 14 alumnes de Lloret de Mar i Castell d'Aro, que durant els darrers mesos han treballat conjuntament en aquesta producció inspirada en l'univers de Willy Wonka com a projecte de final de curs. L'obra és el resultat de la col·laboració entre dos grups de teatre formats per infants i adolescents. Tal com explica la responsable de Casamiga, Nelly, «tenim dos grups, entre nens i adolescents, la majoria d’entre 11 i 16 anys», i per això han decidit unir esforços en una mateixa producció. De fet, assenyala que els assajos s'han fet tant a Lloret com a Castell d'Aro, ja que «són dos grups de diferents pobles i fem un espectacle junts». Tot i que parteix d'una història molt coneguda, la proposta que arribarà aquest cap de setmana al Teatre de Lloret s'allunya de l'argument original. L'equip ha apostat per crear una adaptació pròpia, amb nous personatges i girs argumentals que aporten una mirada fresca i divertida al relat. Segons destaca Nelly, «hem fet una versió absolutament nova». Entre les novetats, hi haurà dos Willy Wonka, l'aparició d'un germà secret i diversos personatges que no formen part de la història original. A més, explica que «hem afegit escenes i coses que no hi havia abans» per construir «una història bastant còmica i també una mica musical». La representació de «La Fàbrica de Xocolata» tindrà lloc aquest diumenge a les 18h al Teatre de Lloret. L'accés és gratuït i s’ha de reservar plaça a través del web del Teatre.

“When ‘Sweet' Feels Cringe: Love Languages, Lake Travis Chaos & a Bridesmaid at 60 You Won't Forget” What if the sweetest compliment you could give your partner made them want to “turn themselves inside out”? That's exactly where this episode of The JB and Sandy Show kicks off—diving headfirst into one of the most hilariously unconventional “love languages” you'll ever hear. JB, Sandy, and Tricia unpack a relationship dynamic that flips romance on its head… where affection sounds more like discomfort—and somehow, it works. Then things take a jaw-dropping turn with a real-life story straight out of an action movie (minus the good decisions). A pilot buzzing boats on Lake Travis pushes things too far, leaving everyone asking: when does showing off cross the line into reckless? The fallout is wild—but the unexpected twist? The very people he startled end up rescuing him. Listeners also weigh in on what makes a relationship healthy—and not everyone agrees that traditional romance is the answer. One caller drops a perspective that might completely shift how you think about long-term love: “You're not faking it… you're just being yourselves.” And just wait until you meet JB's sister, Chris. She absolutely steals the show with a story that proves life doesn't slow down at 60—it just gets better. From being a bridesmaid decades later to her unforgettable one-liners, including, “For a fat girl like me, this is the golden ticket of Willy Wonka,” you'll be laughing the entire way through. Plus: A surprising stat about first dates that might make you rethink your next dinner outing A nostalgic (and slightly awkward) look at restaurant culture making a comeback And one painfully funny story about a first date meal that went very wrong

On today's House of Machismo, the guys kick things off with the news that Spirit Airlines has shut down—and let's just say nobody's shocked, but everybody's got a story. From budget flights to budget expectations, the crew breaks down what made Spirit… Spirit. Then things get a little deeper (and a little weirder). The conversation shifts to AI—how it's being used in jobs, content creation, and whether it's quietly replacing the human touch. Is AI making life easier… or stripping away creativity and originality? And more importantly—would Marty actually replace the guys with AI co-hosts if they started missing shows? (Spoiler: the guys get nervous real fast.) To wrap it up, the show dives headfirst into some dark and twisted movie theories. Is Willy Wonka secretly a serial killer running a chocolate factory of doom? And is James Bond really just a rotating codename instead of one man? The theories get wild, the debates get heated, and somehow it all makes a little too much sense. It's comedy, chaos, and just enough paranoia to keep you questioning everything—classic HOM.

It's basically: “How dare you tell me I can't buy candy with taxpayer money!”That's not a nutrition program anymore. That's Willy Wonka with a federal budget.And look, I get it. Nobody wants government micromanaging their grocery cart. But at some point, you have to ask the obvious question…Is this about helping people eat… or helping corporations sell sugar with a subsidy sticker on it?Because historically, SNAP was created in the 1960s as part of LBJ's Great Society.

Movie of the Year: 1971The Finale, Part IIThe 1971 Film Bracket Podcast Reaches the Elite EightThis 1971 film bracket podcast returns with its most dramatic episode yet. Ryan, Mike, and Greg — the Taste Buds — work through the bottom half of the Sweet 16, producing four matchups that nobody saw coming. Furthermore, the episode hands out two major awards: Comedic Performance and Biggest Shithead. The results set the stage for Part III, where the Elite Eight will be whittled down to a single 1971 champion.If you missed Part I of the finale, start there first. The bracket has been full of upsets throughout the season. Consequently, no outcome here should be taken for granted.The Sweet 16: Bottom Half of the 1971 Film BracketThe bottom half of the 1971 Sweet 16 is stacked. These four matchups pit some of the most beloved and argued-over films in the entire bracket against one another. Moreover, the range of cinema on display — from Hollywood blockbusters to European art films to New Hollywood grit — illustrates exactly why 1971 is one of the most fertile film years ever put to a bracket.The Taste Buds debate each matchup using their standard evaluative framework: craft, cultural impact, rewatchability, and gut feeling. Above all, they trust their instincts — and their instincts have produced surprises at every turn this season. Tune in to find out which four films advance to the Elite Eight.Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory vs. WandaThis matchup pits one of cinema's most beloved fantasies against one of its most criminally underseen gems. Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory needs little introduction — Gene Wilder's performance alone has kept it in the cultural conversation for over fifty years. Nevertheless, Wanda is no pushover. Barbara Loden's Wanda (1971) is a raw, naturalistic landmark of American independent cinema, and its inclusion in the bracket has been a point of pride for whoever seeded it.This is a clash of tone, scale, and intention. One film is a spectacle engineered for maximum delight. The other strips cinema down to its bones. However, the Taste Buds must pick one — and the pick will tell you something about where their tastes landed by the time the 1971 season reached its final stretch.The French Connection vs. Brian's SongTwo films that defined what mainstream American cinema could do with raw emotional and procedural intensity. The French Connection won the Academy Award for Best Picture in 1971. It features one of the most celebrated car chases in film history and a career-defining performance from Gene Hackman as the relentless, morally compromised Popeye Doyle. Additionally, William Friedkin's direction remains a masterclass in gritty, kinetic storytelling.Brian's Song, meanwhile, hit American living rooms as a TV movie and destroyed everyone who watched it. The story of Gale Sayers and Brian Piccolo remains one of the most emotionally devastating sports films ever made. Notably, the Taste Buds covered both films earlier this season — so this rematch in the 1971 film bracket carries the weight of all those prior arguments.The Last Picture Show vs. KluteTwo of New Hollywood's most enduring films square off here, and neither one will go quietly. The Last Picture Show is Peter Bogdanovich's elegiac black-and-white portrait of a dying Texas town — a film the American Film Institute has called one of the greatest ever made. Furthermore, its ensemble cast, including Jeff Bridges, Cybill Shepherd, Cloris Leachman, and Ben Johnson, delivers some of the finest performances in the bracket.Klute, however, has Jane Fonda. Her performance as Bree Daniels earned her the first of her two Academy Awards, and it remains one of the most psychologically intricate portrayals of a woman in crisis in American cinema. Alan J. Pakula's direction is coiled and paranoid in all the right ways. Consequently, this matchup may be the most difficult call in the entire bracket.The Conformist vs. The Panic in Needle ParkThe final Sweet 16 matchup is the most arthouse of the four — and arguably the most fascinating. Bernardo Bertolucci's The Conformist is a landmark of European cinema. Vittorio Storaro's cinematography is among the most studied in film school history, and the film's meditation on fascism, identity, and moral cowardice has only grown richer with time. You can read more about the film at Roger Ebert's review on RogerEbert.com.The Panic in Needle Park, by contrast, is bracingly American — a gritty, unglamorous portrait of heroin addiction on the streets of New York. It introduced Al Pacino to mainstream audiences. Moreover, Jerry Schatzberg's unflinching direction makes the film feel almost documentary in its honesty. These two films represent opposite ends of world cinema in 1971, and the Taste Buds must choose one.Award: Best Comedic Performance — 1971 Film Bracket PodcastThe Taste Buds hand out individual performance awards throughout the season, and the Comedic Performance category drew a fascinating and eclectic field of nominees. The 1971 bracket is not short on laughs — from the anarchic fantasy of Willy Wonka's chocolate factory to the dark comedy of Harold and Maude. Furthermore, the nominees represent a range of comic registers, from broad physical performance to pitch-black wit.The nominees are:David Battley — Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory (Mike's pick)Julie Dawn Cole — Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory (Greg's pick)Bud Cort — Harold and Maude (Mike's pick)Michael Gothard — The Devils (Ryan's pick)Gene Wilder — Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory (Greg's pick)David Battley's turn as the hapless Mr. Turkentine in Willy Wonka is a masterwork of bewildered reaction comedy. Julie Dawn Cole's Veruca Salt is a full-throttle comic creation — spoiled, relentless, and somehow sympathetic. Additionally, Bud Cort's Harold is a genuinely difficult comic achievement: deadpan to the point of catatonia, yet somehow enormously warm.Michael Gothard's Father Barre in The Devils is Ryan's wild-card choice — a performance of manic, committed intensity that functions as dark comedy whether or not Ken Russell intended it. Meanwhile, Gene Wilder's Willy Wonka remains one of cinema's great comic performances — menacing, whimsical, and deeply strange all at once. The winner is waiting for you in the episode.Award: Biggest Shithead of 1971One of the Taste Buds' most beloved recurring awards, the Biggest Shithead category recognizes the most memorably awful person — or entity — in the bracket. Notably, this award rewards commitment. Nominees do not simply do bad things. They do bad things with style, conviction, and a complete lack of self-awareness.The nominees are:Baron de Laubardemont — The Devils (Greg's pick)The Lady at Snakearama — Duel (Ryan's pick)The Motorcycle Cop — Harold and Maude (Greg's pick)Mr. Deltoid — A Clockwork Orange (Mike's pick)Veruca Salt — Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory (Mike's pick)Baron de Laubardemont, the cold bureaucratic villain of The Devils, brings state-sanctioned cruelty to the category. The Lady at Snakearama from Duel is Ryan's inspired choice — a brief but indelible portrait of someone who simply should not be in this movie. Furthermore, Harold and Maude's Motorcycle Cop is a monument to institutional pettiness.Mr. Deltoid from A Clockwork Orange is a sweaty, oleaginous masterpiece of ineffectual authority — Mike's nomination is well-argued. Veruca Salt, however, may be the category's most pure entry: a child who has elevated wanting things to an art form. The winner, as always, is in the episode.Why This 1971 Film Bracket Podcast Still MattersThe Sweet 16 is where bracket tournaments reveal their true character. By this stage, the obvious candidates are mostly gone. What remains are the films that survived not on reputation alone but on genuine argument. Moreover, the bottom half of the 1971 Sweet 16 contains some of the season's most debated films — which means every matchup result carries real emotional weight.The year 1971 is one of the most remarkable in cinema history. New Hollywood was hitting its stride. European art cinema was pushing form to its limits. Genre filmmaking was getting stranger, darker, and more personal. Consequently, any bracket drawn from this year produces matchups that feel genuinely impossible to call. The Taste Buds do not pretend otherwise — they argue, they agonize, and they vote.Part III is coming. The Elite Eight will determine the Movie of the Year: 1971 champion. Above all, this episode is the last chance to see which films survive before the final reckoning. Subscribe to PopFilter and follow along — the 1971 film...

But how does the law apply to all these fantastic shenanigans? What responsibility does the Weyland-Yutani Corporation have when it comes to the events portrayed in the classic 1982 film Alien? Do robots, androids, and other artificial lifeforms have access to civil rights? How is Willy Wonka still in business? And who do you sue when giant rabbits lay waste to your property?

Ever been to a food tasting? You just get little nibbles of what the meals would taste like.I like those, because you sample what you like or don't like. And I can only say that today's show is a sampler, but you will like it all.That rich, unmistakable aroma… slow-roasted, lightly seasoned, occasionally overcooked Democrats.We got SCOTUS fallout, and Leftists are upset. But it's not just the gerrymandering. People are dishing dirt on KJB.SCOTUS Decision FalloutLots of crying over SNAPNo more junk food on SNAP and people were losing their minds…Think about how wild that is.We went from “food assistance” to “government-funded snack attack.”And the argument isn't even subtle. It's basically: “How dare you tell me I can't buy candy with taxpayer money!”That's not a nutrition program anymore. That's Willy Wonka with a federal budget.And look, I get it. Nobody wants government micromanaging their grocery cart. But at some point, you have to ask the obvious question…Is this about helping people eat… or helping corporations sell sugar with a subsidy sticker on it?Because historically, SNAP was created in the 1960s as part of LBJ's Great Society. The idea was simple: prevent hunger.Not “fund a soda habit.”We didn't fight the War on Poverty so somebody could roll up with a cart that looks like Halloween collided with a gas station.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Welcome everybody. I'm Jason Hull, the owner and founder of DoorGrow, the world's leading and most comprehensive coaching and consulting firm for long-term residential property management entrepreneurs. For over a decade and a half, we've brought innovative strategies and optimization to the property management industry. At DoorGrow, we are on a mission to transform property management business owners and their businesses.   We want to transform the industry, eliminate the BS, build awareness, change perception, expand the market and help the best property management entrepreneurs win. Now let's get into the show. All right. So today this show is going to be all about giving your teenager the headstart that you wish you had as an entrepreneur. Don't you wish you could just go back and like help yourself out. So I'm hanging out here today with Malcolm. Malcolm, welcome. Welcome, Keith.   Malcolm Keith (00:56) Hey, thank you.   Jason Hull (00:59) welcome to the show. So I'll give you a little bit of background on Malcolm. At just 17, Malcolm launched Teen Mastermind, a growing community of more than 60 teens dedicated to leadership, entrepreneurship, and building a meaningful legacy. Now 19, Malcolm has taken that vision even further by bringing the movement into the real world with Teen Mastermind Live, a three-day immersive leadership experience designed for both teens and their parents.   In a time when most conversations about young people revolve around screen addiction and disconnection and lack of direction, Malcolm represents a powerful counter narrative. As a young leader himself, he's helping teens step into confidence, develop entrepreneurial thinking and strengthen family relationships around shared purpose and growth. So Malcolm, welcome to the DoorGrow show.   Malcolm Keith (01:53) Awesome. Thank you so much. I'm excited to be here.   Jason Hull (01:56) Cool, cool. So now tell people a little bit, how did you get started doing this and how did you kind of start your little entrepreneurial journey yourself?   Malcolm Keith (02:09) Yeah, so my parents got married and opened their dojo the same year. And so I've been in the entrepreneurial world my entire life, about as long as I've been on the mats doing jujitsu. And so those two go very hand in hand in my journey. ⁓ And so I think when I was when I was nine years old is when my parents, they've been going to a mastermind for ⁓ martial arts school owners. And so they've been like, you   Jason Hull (02:17) Thank   Malcolm Keith (02:38) One parent would go while the other parent would stay home and take care of me and my little sister. But one day they were like, why are we continuing to do this? We, we homeschool and we have the ability to just take the whole family together and it kind of sucks when the family is split apart. So why don't we just, so they made a commitment to always take the whole family on every trip, on every business trip. And so we got to sit in the meeting rooms.   and learn from these entrepreneurs. At first we were like little kids just playing with our toys quietly in the corner, reading a book quietly. But ⁓ as a little kid, you're a little information sponge. And so eventually we actually started listening and taking notes. And then I think it was probably when we went to some of Russell's events, like Funnel Hacking Live and Unlock the Secrets was when I was like, this entrepreneur stuff is super cool. And it wasn't my parents who were   directly telling me like, you need to be a business owner. This is how being an entrepreneur works. It was the people on stage that, so my parents put me in these rooms where there were people on stage and they were the ones that were selling me on the idea of entrepreneurship. And so that's how, that's kind of how I got into this whole world.   Jason Hull (03:56) You had entrepreneurial parents and they put you in some amazing opportunities and rooms to be exposed to think differently. And man, that's like the best homeschool education ever, right? It's a real education that actually leads you making money instead of just being a really good employee somewhere maybe. cool. And your parents are doing, have the martial arts school and doing the martial arts thing. And do you do martial arts? ⁓   Malcolm Keith (04:08) yeah.   Yeah, I've been doing   it since I I learned how to walk and talk on the mats. So I've been, yeah, whole life.   Jason Hull (04:26) Yeah, okay. So   right. I mean, don't let the glasses fool you. This guy could probably kick your butt. So, all right. So very cool. So Malcolm, and you've been doing this mastermind, you've got this event coming up. So tell people about like, why did you decide to start this and get this thing going?   Malcolm Keith (04:47) Yeah, so I've been going to these, like, there's been, we've been going to Russell's events for a while and I would sometimes meet a couple of the teens there. ⁓ There'd be occasionally a few teens, but we would never stay connected. And ⁓ as I was homeschooled, we were part of kind of a co-op. And so I still had like classmates that I would meet with every week and it was great.   But every time I'd come back home from these events, I'd come back to class and talk with my classmates there. And they just didn't understand it, this whole world of entrepreneurship and being a business owner and having a big vision and actually knowing that you can achieve it. so they didn't get exposed to that world ⁓ the same way that I did. And so ⁓ that felt a bit isolating. ⁓   Jason Hull (05:32) Yeah.   Yeah, yeah.   Malcolm Keith (05:44) It was at like, I think it was Unlock   the Secrets that I saw that, there are actually other teens that ⁓ are not only interested, but doing business already. But then I kept going to those events and we would never stay connected. ⁓ And so eventually it was ⁓ Unlock the Secrets in Paradise in 2024. And I realized, and I made the decision like, okay, this time is going to be different.   Jason Hull (06:01) Yeah.   Malcolm Keith (06:13) I'm going to make a Discord server and invite all the teams that I meet there. And we're just going to make a commitment to stay connected. Then we had, so I invited everybody there that I had met. We did our own little like in-person mastermind ⁓ during like one of the off sessions during the event, which is super fun. And then ⁓ one of us had the idea to start doing a call every week. So that's how that started happening. We could stay connected, keep each other updated on.   what we're all doing with our businesses. And that's how that started. Eventually the idea came along to, ⁓ we had this idea to try to get on the FHL 10 stage. And it's crazy idea, like, cause only the best of the best get on that stage. But.   Jason Hull (06:44) Yeah.   So   let's pause for a second. So I wanna explain to people listening. So he's mentioning Russell. We're talking about Russell Brunson. He's like the sort of the founder of ClickFunnels and brilliant entrepreneur, probably one of the greatest marketing minds ⁓ period of this generation. And ⁓ that's how we met you and your parents is we're in Russell Brunson's inner circle. ⁓   which is not an inexpensive thing to be part of. So getting access to that as a teenager is pretty amazing. So really awesome. And you were wanting to get on stage at Funnel Hacking Live, which was like this massive event. I think they have like sometimes 5,000, 6,000 people at these conferences, these events. And you're like, how can we maybe get on stage at this event as teenagers? So I love it. All right, so continue.   Malcolm Keith (07:53) Yeah, biggest marketing business event   like ever. So rock concert for entrepreneurs. ⁓ So we had this idea, what if we try to get on stage? It's probably not going to happen, but you might as well try. If you don't ask, the answer is always no. So, yeah, we put together a video made sure to include as many little like nods to all the stuff that Russell says to show that you actually listen to him. ⁓ And he really appreciated it. He said that   Jason Hull (07:59) Yeah.   Right, yeah.   Yeah.   Malcolm Keith (08:24) The lineup for the main stage was already chosen like a while before we had sent the video. But they were doing this new thing called round tables while actually bringing it back to this last event. So it was like 60 round tables each hosted by a high level entrepreneur. And they're like, maybe we can try to give you one of these round tables, which ended up being way better because we can actually talk directly to the other teens who came to that event, which there are a ton, which is   Jason Hull (08:30) I'm sure.   Yeah.   Malcolm Keith (08:53) So   cool to see. So we did that. And the team mastermind grew a lot after that event. was, I think, we were able to get our own separate room during that event. They were able to give one to us. And we had just our own in-person mastermind during FHL with 20 or more teens all in the room talking about our goals for the next 10 years.   Jason Hull (09:11) Yeah.   Malcolm Keith (09:23) and figuring out like what are the things that we're going to do today and this next week after we come back home that's actually going to bring us closer to those goals. So that was that was super fun.   Jason Hull (09:24) That's awesome.   Yeah.   Yeah, that's really cool. So ⁓ you're 19th over, right? What happens to this teen mastermind when you're not a teenager? Like that's within the next year.   Malcolm Keith (09:40) I am, yes.   Yeah, that's been something that I've been thinking about almost since the inception of it. Although at the beginning of it, I never knew it become this big and we'd be doing live events. Like I just created it because I wanted a friend group. ⁓ But they're like, this is super valuable. You got to monetize it. And so that took me a while to do that, ⁓ to kind of get over that block of like, I don't want to charge people who are my friends for something that I created.   Jason Hull (09:54) Sure, yeah.   Yeah.   Malcolm Keith (10:17) as a community, ⁓ but they were telling me like, it is super valuable and people value it more if you actually do charge money for it. Attention, yep, exactly. So I finally did that and that immediately started to grow the team mastermind. And then they were asking for live events. And so we're like, okay, yeah, we should do a live event just for our group. ⁓   Jason Hull (10:25) Yeah, like Russell says, when people pay, they pay attention.   Malcolm Keith (10:44) because there's   Jason Hull (10:44) Yeah.   Malcolm Keith (10:45) people, not just, a lot of them at the start were from Russell's Circles, going to Funnel Hacking Live together, but then there were teens from other places as well. And so we needed one kind of ⁓ our own place to all get together. So that's how the live event came about. ⁓ And I started with something else. I totally forgot. went off.   Jason Hull (11:05) Well, yeah,   it's ideas like what comes next? are you going to keep doing this? I mean, I imagine you could keep doing it, but you you're about to turn 20, so you're not a teen. But that's the main thing, can't run the team mastermind, but at some point you might be like, my friend group's getting a little young here, so.   Malcolm Keith (11:08) Yeah.   Yeah, so I got another year left.   Yeah, I mean, the thing is, the friends that are in there right now, ⁓ they're all growing up to. And so I think once all of those people quote unquote age out as well, I'll always have like my own inner circle of people that are similar to my age. We won't always all be teens, but we'll all be around the same distance apart. And so I think there'll be a mastermind afterwards, but   Jason Hull (11:39) Yeah.   Malcolm Keith (11:53) I'll always be part of the Teen Mastermind in some way, maybe not in the same role that I am right now. ⁓ I'm the person that's just a couple of steps ahead. ⁓   Jason Hull (12:06) Yeah. Well,   maybe you pick a teenager to kind of head it up or maybe they vote or something, but then you've got, you, give them the IP, you set up the frameworks, you help them know this, how to run the events. can ask you for guidance and you're always going to be a step ahead. know, so.   Malcolm Keith (12:23) Yeah, so that's, that was a really cool part of the mastermind was that it was created by a team and led by a team for teens. And so I always wanted to keep it that way. ⁓ and a couple of the teens in the group have kind of stepped up and become their own leaders in the group. and so I've been, ⁓ recruiting them a little bit here and there, and it's been really awesome so far. And so that's, ⁓   Jason Hull (12:34) Yeah.   Yeah.   Malcolm Keith (12:52) That's working out a lot.   Jason Hull (12:54) Right. Yeah. Now you're like Willy Wonka and you're just trying to find Charlie at the, who do I give the golden ticket to and teach them the ways and let them run this place. All right. So really cool. So what are some of the things that happen at the, at the event that you're gearing up?   Malcolm Keith (13:01) Yep.   Yeah, so   the idea first came, let's see, that's actually, okay, I'll save that. There's the grand finale part, which is my favorite and kind of the first idea that came about. ⁓ But so at the event, ⁓ I'm going to take pieces of previous events that I had been to the things that I really liked and implement them, but also look at the things that I, you know,   didn't like as much or things that I think could be improved and kind of take that into it. And so the whole event is built around community implementation and fun. At a lot of events, you know, if it's the event of like thousands of people, you can't really do this. But if it's an event of maybe a hundred or less, then you could very easily as the host, make sure that everybody knows each other. And so we start the event with   Jason Hull (13:52) Okay.   Yeah.   Yeah.   Malcolm Keith (14:10) having all the families introduce each other or introduce themselves so that everyone kind of knows like who it is that they're actually sitting next to because it's like to be at an event and have no clue who the person who the how cool the person in the chair to the right of you is. So that's how we start it. And then we love the walk and talks. Russell does that with Inner Circle. ⁓ Walk and talks are amazing. So we do that between every speaker and then. ⁓   Jason Hull (14:26) Right, yeah.   Okay.   Malcolm Keith (14:39) All of the, everybody sat at a round table and that's very specific because, ⁓ means that everybody is kind of grouped together and they get to talk, you know, across from each other instead of like talking all the way over to the table there, they're ⁓ sitting around and that automatically like subconsciously creates that sense of community. ⁓ so everything is built around that creating opportunities.   for people to have conversations. And then implementation, we want to make sure that the teens aren't just sitting there in a room having speakers just talk at them for hours. ⁓ We make sure that all those speakers have something like some kind of workshop and the teens are doing something active. And you learn more that way and you actually get stuff done during the event. And you can take that momentum with you back home.   Jason Hull (15:32) Yeah.   Malcolm Keith (15:36) and continue on from there. So many events give you a ton of ideas, but you're like, have no clue what to do when you get back home.   Jason Hull (15:45) Yeah, I got it. Some people call that experiential learning instead of just, you know, sitting there and listening the whole time and then eventually zoning out, making sure that I like the walk and talks. I like that there's this experiential learning where you're taking action, each of the speakers, it sounds like a challenge to do like get people to do something or implement something. So.   Malcolm Keith (16:07) Yeah, so we're super intentional about that. And then fun, of course. I think that's the most important because if I really do any of this, if it isn't fun along the way, entrepreneurship should be fun.   Jason Hull (16:21) Yeah, business owners, don't think of that a lot. Entrepreneurs are like, wait, like, let's make money. But yeah, but fun is nice, right? So how do you make it fun? Maybe you can teach the grownup here how to how to be more fun. So.   Malcolm Keith (16:31) So again, all the speakers are.   Yeah, the, mean, every speaker and all the workshops are meant to be fun. ⁓ and then we also have, excursion, like a special trip that we do for each day. So the first one is usually something kind of unique to the area for the one we did here in Oregon. ⁓ we went to wildlife safari, which I sometimes call it a zoo, but it's way more than that. It's, it is like an actual safari. we did like a bus tour and got to see a bunch of, ⁓ cool animals.   Jason Hull (17:01) Yeah.   Malcolm Keith (17:05) ⁓ in Arizona, we went to, ⁓ a like super car show, which is super fun. And then for this next event in Illinois, we'll be going like a ⁓ hiking trip and seeing some of the cool scenery there. So that's what we do for the first day, something kind of unique to the area that we go to. ⁓ on day two, we do jujitsu and so bringing my family's business routes there. ⁓ and there's.   Jason Hull (17:13) Nice.   Yeah.   Malcolm Keith (17:35) As my dad always says, jujitsu is a metaphor for pretty much everything. ⁓ It's constantly in the cars, what we talk about is how does jujitsu relate.   Jason Hull (17:40) Right.   Is this   Brazilian jujitsu or jujitsu or are you like throwing people like what are doing during the   Malcolm Keith (17:52) No, we usually teach like some basic self-defense stuff. So, wrist grab escapes, and then we do kind of more of what you would see if you actually watched a Jujutsu match, which is kind of like the grappling on the ground, ⁓ like a trap and roll. If someone's sitting on top of you, how to like get them over and escape. ⁓ So, some of the basic stuff like that.   Jason Hull (18:08) Mm-hmm.   Yeah.   Malcolm Keith (18:19) No throws and stuff. You need to learn how to fall first before you can throw. so yeah. Yeah.   Jason Hull (18:23) Sure, yeah, Breakfall, yeah, got   it. So like mount, guard. Okay, got it, okay. And these are with parents and kids?   Malcolm Keith (18:30) Mm-hmm. Yeah, that all that kind of stuff   Yes, so the whole event is supposed to be not just for teens, but for the whole family, because that's how our family does it. We always go together and we want to continue to be that example and start to like influence that mindset in other families to be a family together. so ⁓ and the jujitsu really helps with that. A lot of the like most successful students in ⁓ our dojo are families that all do it together. ⁓   Jason Hull (19:07) I see. Okay, got   it. So when you're doing the second day, and is it just two days?   Malcolm Keith (19:14) And then we have a final third day and we end the event with the Teenpreneur Ball. And that's an opportunity for all the teens, the whole family to ⁓ dress nice, dress fancy, which is very rare nowadays, especially for kids and teens. ⁓ And so I wanted to provide that opportunity to dress nice and fancy. We have a dinner and so that gives us an opportunity to learn about.   Jason Hull (19:16) Third day.   Malcolm Keith (19:43) like table etiquette, and then we do English dancing. So have you ever seen like pride and prejudice that movie? Okay. Yeah. Yeah. So big. Yeah. Big rows of, ⁓ of dance of, yeah, dancing. They all dance together.   Jason Hull (19:51) I think I know what you're talking about, where they're like all kind of doing their thing in circle and like turning.   like ancient   English line dancing or something. Okay. Okay. Yeah. All right. Cool. So a little teenpreneur ball.   Malcolm Keith (20:06) Yeah, I think it's called English country dancing, but yeah, I just call it English dancing. yeah. So and that's   yeah, so and that's our grand finale and the teens and the parents especially actually really love it.   Jason Hull (20:21) Yeah, okay. Yeah, you have an excuse to dress nice and dance with each other. all right. Yeah, I love it. That sounds, it sounds like fun. So, sounds really cool. So when is your, when's your next one?   Malcolm Keith (20:28) Yeah.   Our next one is April 30th to May 2nd in Marion, Illinois.   Jason Hull (20:39) April 30th   to May 2nd.   Sorry, what were you saying?   Malcolm Keith (20:45) It'll be in Marion, Illinois.   Jason Hull (20:50) Cool. How do you pick the locations?   Malcolm Keith (20:53) well, the first location that's where we live, we had a couple of members in Arizona and they were like really adamant about like, Scottsdale is amazing. So we went there and then a couple of our founding members who've been just so supportive since the beginning are in Illinois. So they're, they've been a huge help.   Jason Hull (20:56) Yep.   ⁓   got it. So you've got some boots on the ground in each area assisting you.   Malcolm Keith (21:16) yeah, yeah, it's, I'm   so grateful for, yeah, the patents. They are awesome.   Jason Hull (21:21) Yeah, very cool. Well, hey, Malcolm, really awesome. As adults, we love seeing this, ⁓ seeing the youth doing cool stuff like this. It's inspiring. And there's probably a lot of entrepreneurs listening to this. They're man, I wish my kid would just stop playing video games and be more like me and be more entrepreneurial. But sometimes kids are not entrepreneurial like their parents are. So.   they might feel like forcing them into this. So what would you say to some of those parents that might be trying to push their kid into being an entrepreneur and maybe the kids like, this isn't my thing.   Malcolm Keith (21:58) Yeah, I'd say my parents didn't necessarily push me. They just put me in the rooms where I learned that that was a path that was available to me. And I think that's the most important because the school system, I mean, it's a fact at this point.

Does Willy Wonka Know How to Run a Damn Competition?

Jackson is so mad at Wonka that he forgot the golden rule of running a competition: the goal for the company, or in this instance, the man, is to get as much money as humanly possible. Jackson is so hellbent on Charlie becoming Wonka's heir that he has perhaps forgotten that Willy Wonka is a famous dirtbag, liar and exploiter of workers. Perhaps with an incredible record setting year in chocolate sales, Wonka has picked this moment to scarper with all those funds and then give the key to his “fortune” to some stupid child who was too busy sucking down snozzberries to realise he had been scammed. Charlie is a literal child, he doesn't know anything about taxes, shareholders or ROI. Two years down the line, he's going to get a knock on the door while Wonka has disappeared into the wind, laying down on some beautiful island getting his snozzberry slopped off. We'd say not that island, but truth be told, would you be surprised if Wonka's name appeared on a list? Charlie is going to rot in jail. Idiot child.

Remarkable Marketing
How Willy Wonka Built a 50 Year Brand on $3M | Kevin Rippon (Juniper Square)

Remarkable Marketing

A $3 million movie. Two big-budget remakes. And somehow, the original still wins. Fifty years later, kids who've seen all three versions of Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory keep coming back to the 1971 film, not because it has better effects, but because it was built on something the others weren't. In this episode, we break down what that something is with the help of our special guest Kevin Rippon, Head of Marketing at Juniper Square. Together, we explore what B2B marketers can learn from taking a distinct position, leading with credibility over spectacle, and structuring content that gets to the point fast. About our guest, Kevin Rippon A respected and resilient marketing leader, Kevin has held positions in product marketing, growth, digital, brand, creative, and experiential at different career stops with companies ranging from asset management to fashion to vertical SaaS. Kevin currently oversees Marketing at Juniper Square. What B2B Companies Can Learn From Willy Wonka & The Chocolate Factory: Know your positioning and take a stand. Gene Wilder's very first scene as Willy Wonka, the cane, the limp, the unexpected somersault, wasn't an accident. It was a declaration. Kevin draws the parallel directly: "The marketing parallel is knowing your positioning or taking a position that's distinct and different." In B2B, most brands try to appeal to everyone and end up resonating with no one. The ones that win commit to a clear, unmistakable point of view, and don't apologize for it. Start with a credible message, then dial up the spectacle. The original Oompa Loompas were real actors. The CGI version in the remake looked slicker yet felt fake. Kevin sees the same trap in B2B content: "Start with a credible message and then work your way up from there in terms of spectacle." Great content isn't about how produced it looks. It's about whether the audience believes it. Credibility is the foundation; everything else is amplification. Don't needlessly preface, let content run downhill. Willy Wonka gets to the point fast. A few lines from Grandpa Joe and you're already inside the factory. Kevin has made this a governing principle at Juniper Square: "A principle that we actually have at Juniper Square that we set is don't needlessly preface or over preface things. I firmly believe in content like running downhill." Too much B2B content spends the first half justifying why the reader should care. The best content starts in the middle of the thing they already care about and never looks back. Quote "Do you have something to say about a particular topic? How can you establish the credibility around it? And then how do you sound different from everyone else, even in your language choices?"
