My newsletter: https://simonowens.substack.com/   When Jack Karmer and Nick Martell launched their daily newsletter Market Snacks in 2011, they kept their names off the publication so that it wouldn't jeopardize their finance day jobs. But once the newsletter started to attract readers and sponsorship revenue, they decided to come clean. Luckily, their bosses let them continue on with their side hustle.   Flash forward about a half decade, and Market Snacks had gained enough traction that they both decided to go to business school so they could learn to scale the company. Around that same time, they teamed up with a large podcast network to launch a daily companion show, and almost immediately it was featured on the Apple Podcast app.   This success didn't go unnoticed. Robinhood, which at the time was a fast-growing stock trading app, came on at first as a sponsor, but a few months later decided to outright buy Market Snacks to leverage it as a marketing channel for the app.   Jack and Nick continued to host the podcast while managing the rest of the Market Snacks team, and then in 2022 they went to the Robinhood executive team with a radical proposition: they wanted to spin off the daily podcast and acquire it from Robinhood. Amazingly, their bosses went for it, and that year they renamed the podcast to The Best One Yet.   In my interview with Jack and Nick, we discussed how they came up with the idea for the newsletter, why Robinhood allowed them to take the podcast back, and what they've done with the company ever since they became full owners.  

Few tennis legends sustained longevity in their careers like Australia's Ken Rosewall. During his 30-plus year career on the courts, he captured an astounding 147 singles titles, spanning some of the most turbulent times in the sport. In the TennisWorthy Podcast, Ken discusses his elite tactics, including his legendary backhand, with host Chris Bowers. He shares stories of his doubles partnership with countryman Lew Hoad, the pure accomplishment of winning Grand Slam titles, and straddling the professional and amateur circuits early in the Open Era.As one of Australia's tennis golden age greats, Ken Rosewall won 18 Grand Slam titles (singles, doubles and mixed doubles) and 15 Pro Major singles titles spanning three decades. He was first ranked in the world's top 20 in 1952 and for the last time in 1977. Rosewall contributed to 4 Davis Cup titles for Australia, and was inducted into the International Tennis Hall of Fame shortly after his career ended in 1980.Episode transcripts and more information can be found on the podcast homepage: tennisfame.com/podcast

Marshall Happer headed the Men's Tennis Council from 1981-89, making him the only unofficial commissioner of men's professional tennis. He draws upon his extensive tennis background – including USTA Executive Director, USTA Southern President & CEO and Southern Tennis Hall of Fame inductee – in writing “Pioneers of the Game.” The 871-page history documents the 40-year trek of men's professional tennis from the Open Era through the advent of the ATP Tour. Happer recounts his relationships with Jack Kramer, Phillippe Chatrier, Arthur Ashe, Lamar Hunt, Donald Dell, Tony Trabert, among others.

Jack Kramer aveva un sogno: voleva che ogni tennista avesse l'opportunità di guadagnarsi da vivere dignitosamente, non solo i pochi eletti del circuito dei professionisti. Così nel 1970 inventò il Masters, un sistema di punti legato ai tornei in calendario ogni settimana. I migliori a fine anno si sarebbero giocati il titolo di maestro. Il primo a vincere il titolo fu Stan Smith, un ragazzo californiano di 24 anni che poi è diventato una scarpa. Questa è la sua storia. I contributi audio di questo episodio sono tratti dal Tg del secondo canale Rai del 10 aprile 1970; dalla telecronaca della BBC della finale di Wimbledon del 1970; da un'intervista a Stan Smith di Tennis Channel.

Three days later, Mr. Carnegie's secretary responded:   “Mr. Carnegie has yours of November 2nd and asks me to say he is greatly honored by the proposal and will do his best to live up to it.”  And so, the majestic Saguaro ("suh-GWAR-oh") Cactus, the largest cactus in the United States and a plant synonymous with the American West, was christened the Carnegiea gigantea.   Saguaros can live for over two centuries. The Saguaro root system has one large tap root accompanied by a very intricate and shallow root system that lies within the top three inches of the soil. Any precious drops of rain are guided down to the ground beneath its mighty arms.  After thirty-five years of life, Saguaro's produce a white night-blooming flower that is bat-pollinated. Saguaros begin to develop their arms after reaching the age of fifty. The average Saguaro weighs three tons. The largest Saguaro ever recorded was called "Granddaddy." Granddaddy stood forty feet tall, had over 52 limbs, and was estimated to be three hundred years old.   November 2, 1906 Birth of Daniil Andreyev ("Da-NEEL An-drave"), Russian writer, poet, and mystic. He wrote a book called The Rose of the World over eight-and-a-half years as a prisoner in a Stalin prison camp. Daniil once wrote, "Perhaps the worst will never come to pass, and tyranny on such a scale will never recur. Perhaps humanity will forevermore retain the memory of  Russia's terrible historical experience. Every heart nurses that hope, and without it life would be unbearable." Daniil had uncanny powers of recall and memory. He was also a voracious reader and grew his personal library to over 2,000 books by the time he was arrested in 1947. Daniil suffered from a spinal defect and wore an iron corset while in prison to cope with the pain. Daniil began having mystic experiences as an adolescent. His first poem was called The Garden. In 1949, at the Vladimir high-security prison, Daniil started to have regular spiritual encounters and visions. And so he used those experiences to write Rose of the World at night. He had his final transcendent revelation in November of 1953 and then finished the book after his release from prison in 1957. And then, Daniil kept the book to himself - hiding it from the government in order to keep it from being destroyed. Daniil's Rose of the World remained hidden before finally getting published in 1991 under Gorbachev. The Rose of the World was an instant bestseller. Daniel H. Shubin wrote the latest English translation in 2018. Shubin writes that, “[Daniil] Envisioned the reign of rows of the world on Earth in the twenty-third century, the future Epoch being a golden age of humanity, whose essence will develop… into a close connection between God and people. It includes a society that consists of a worldwide ecclesiastical fraternity.” Daniil himself explained Rose of the World this way: Rose of the World can be compared to an inverted flower whose root is in heaven, while the petal bowl is here, among Humanity, on Earth. Its stem is the revelation through which the spiritual sap flows, sustaining and strengthening its petals... But other than the petals, it also has a pith; this is its individual teaching.   November 2, 1954 On this day, The Journal Herald (Dayton, Ohio) ran a little snippet on the wonder of Potpourri from the November garden. The November garden has her odors. In most instances, they are not so beguiling as those of spring and summer, yet they are far from displeasing.  There is the sharp, vinegary tang that rises from leaves, sodden and cold.  There is the odor of soil on which frost has laid whiteness; an odor, which seems different from that of earth newly turned in spring.  There is the pungence that rises from rotting apples and pears; and the heavy fragrance which issues from the chrysanthemum leaf and blossom.  Occasionally a flower remains whose breath is that of July. Even though the hand of chill has pressed heavily on the garden, the sweet alyssum has summer perfume. And a rose, spared, has a scent which speaks nostalgically of June.  But in the main, the odor of the November garden is distinctive, sharp, penetrating, and has something of that element of age, which cannot be associated with redolence but rather with a potpourri.   Unearthed Words She felt strong and blissfully empty, gliding through the crisp November air, enjoying the intermittent warmth of the sun as it filtered down through the overhanging trees, which were mostly stripped of their foliage. It was that trashy, post-Halloween part of the fall, yellow and orange leaves littering the ground. ― Tom Perrotta, The Leftovers   Grow That Garden Library The Art of the Islamic Garden by Emma Clark This book came out in 2011 - so an oldie, but goodie. (It's already ten years old.) And here's what Emma wrote at the beginning of this book: Even a glimmer of understanding of traditional Islamic art and architecture clearly reveals that its beauty is not simply surface decoration, but is a reflection of a deep knowledge and understanding of the natural order and of the divine unity that penetrates all of our lives. Studying Islamic art and architecture and completing a master's thesis on Islamic gardens and garden carpet at the Royal college of art opened my eyes to the meaning of art.  Understanding something of the religion of Islam in general and Islamic art in particular, it became clear that all art to a greater or lesser degree should be a vehicle of hope.  It should remind us what it means to be human of our place in the universe and our role as is said in Islam as God's vice-regent on earth. And then she writes, and bear in mind; this is 2011: In the increasingly difficult times in which we live, it is good to be reminded that gardens and nature, transcend nationality, race, religion, color, and ideology. The Islamic garden is not only for Muslims, it's beauty is apparent to  everyone.  In her book, Emma offers an introduction to the design, the symbolism, and the planting of the traditional Islamic garden. Emma also gives some practical tips if you're interested in creating an Islamic garden for yourself. Emma points out that we all have different starting points for our gardens. We have different garden sizes and situations (urban garden or a country garden), obviously different climates and soils, etc.  And so, she spends a couple of chapters offering up ideas for plants and trees and shrubs that you might want to consider incorporating into an Islamic-inspired garden. Now there is a pattern to Islamic gardens. They're often constructed around a central pool or fountain with four streams flowing symbolically to the earth's four corners. My favorite part of this book is exploring the symbolism behind Islamic art and gardens. And by the way, there is a magnificent chapter in this book that is all about the prince of Wales carpet garden. It's just spectacular. Now this book is out of print, and I predict that copies of this book will only get harder to get as time goes on. So if you have any interest, you should make sure that this one gets on your list. You can get a copy of The Art of the Islamic Garden by Emma Clark and support the show using the Amazon Link in today's Show Notes for around $26.   Today's Botanic Spark Reviving the little botanic spark in your heart November 2, 1975 On this day, The New York Times Around the Garden segment recommended some new garden books. Some bright newcomers have been added to the trowel‐watering can library. Here they are.  Masakuni Kawasumi spent three years in this country adapting his Japanese methods of bonsai growing to American species of trees. His “Bonsai With American Trees” ($10, Kodansha International) is the result, an excellent basic primer... Tapeworm plant, living stones bead vine, spiderweb, and polka dot are a few of the off‐beat plants described in “Fun With Growing Odd and Curious House Plants” Virginie and George Elbert ($8.95, Crown). The odd‐sized book, 6½ x 11 inches, gives brief biographies and how‐to‐grow tips for many unusual house plants, delightful changes from the tried‐and‐true. And while on the subject of fun, there is Jack Kramer's “How to Identify & Care for House Plants” ($8.95, Doubleday). The fun comes in matching line‐drawings and silhouettes to the author's organizational key. Though probably not meant to be a puzzle book, it is. ...a plant number 8‐1‐3 turns out to be none other than a cattleya orchid. Thalassa Cruso, television “lady of the trowel” has done it again. This time she is telling about “Making Vegetables Grow” ($8.95, Knopf), one of her best with chatty helpful tips on bringing the crop in abundantly.  Light gardens are booming, especially among those who have dark apartments and want some greenery indoors. “The Complete Book of Houseplants Under Lights” by Charles Marden Fitch ($9.95, Hawthorn) updates the hobby and is full of ideas.  Joining the series of “state” books on wildflowers by John E. Klimas Jr., is “A Pocket Guide to the Common Wild Flowers of New York” ($5.95, Walker). Compact tuck in a backpack, Descriptions are in everyday language, not botanist's twang. Environmental awareness has come full circle with “Organic Flower Gardening” by Catherine Osgood Foster ($12.95, Rodale Press). An organic gardener's book on raising flowers? Mrs. Foster explains why,  “One is for the sake of the bees, wasps and other beneficial insects and butterflies … another good reason is to protect the birds … the most important is that you avoid starting chain reactions in the environment from poisonous chemical sprays and dusts you might introduce.”  And for winter reading by the fireplace, here are a few:  “A Gardener Touched With Genius, The Life of Luther Burbank” by Peter Dreyer ($10, Coward, McCann & Geoghegan):  “The Best of American Gardening” by Ken and Pat Kraft ($10, Walker), a clip hook of garden tips gleaned from 100‐year‐old seed catalogues;  “The Plant Hunters” by B. J. Healey ($8.95, Scribners), a brief biography of discoverers of exotic species from the 17th century to the present. And for reference; “Ornamental Grasses” by Mary Hockenberry Meyer ($9.95, Scribners), an excellent well-illustrated guide to this unusual group of plants.  “The Personal Garden, Its Architecture and Design” by Bernard Wolgensinger and Jose Daidone ($30, Van Nostrand Reinhold), beautifully illustrated with design concepts from European, Western and Japanese gardens.  “Plant A Tree” by Michael A. Weiner ($15.95, Macmillan) subtitled, “A working guide to regreening America.”  Good reference book for city planners, libraries, and schools on tree planting and care, nationwide. Florida, Texas, and California where the avocado is grown commercially, the trees do not start flowering until six years old, or sooner if grafted. One rare exception was reported by Barbara Stimson, a gardener in Maine, who wrote in a recent Letters to the Editor, Flower and Garden, that her indoor avocado did flower, but no fruit, when it was about two years old and four feet high.   Thanks for listening to The Daily Gardener. And remember: "For a happy, healthy life, garden every day."

(20 de junio: Centenario del Natalicio de Pancho Segura) A raíz de sus victorias en los torneos de la Copa Sudamericana en Brasil, Chile, Argentina y Uruguay en 1939, recibió el apoyo moral y económico necesario para viajar a los Estados Unidos como representante especial del Ministerio del Deporte de Ecuador. Desde Nueva York aceptó una beca para estudiar y jugar tenis representando a la Universidad de Miami, y llegó a ser el mejor jugador universitario del país, ganando el campeonato nacional estadounidense por tres años consecutivos, entre 1943 y 1945. En 1947 dio el salto al profesionalismo a pesar de que en aquellos tiempos a los profesionales no se les permitía competir en los torneos del Grand Slam, es decir, en Wimbledon, Roland Garros, Estados Unidos y Australia, ni en la Copa Davis. Soñaba con ganar uno de esos grandes torneos, pero la necesidad económica lo impulsó a tomar esa decisión. Fue así como entre 1950 y 1952 se convirtió en el primer jugador en ganar el torneo profesional de los Estados Unidos en tres superficies diferentes, venciendo dos veces al gran campeón Francisco «Pancho» González, el mejor sacador de la época. Su velocidad en las piernas, su tenis poco ortodoxo pero muy efectivo, y su inteligencia táctica lo llevaron a ser considerado en 1950 y 1952 como el jugador número uno del mundo a nivel profesional. El legendario Jack Kramer dijo de él que «tenía el mejor golpe en la historia del tenis», un golpe de derecha letal con las dos manos.1 Con semejante talento y carisma, en 1962, ya retirado, comenzó a dar clases en California en el Beverly Hills Tennis Club. Algunas de las grandes estrellas del cine, tales como Doris Day, Julie Andrews, Charlton Heston, Barbra Streisand, Gene Hackman y Ava Gardner, fueron alumnos suyos. Pero los dos alumnos más destacados que tuvo fueron dos de los mejores tenistas de la historia: Jimmy Connors, a quien legó su revés a dos manos, y Chris Evert. ¡Con razón que en 1984 ingresó al Salón de la Fama del Tenis Internacional! Se trata, nada más ni nada menos, que de «la Leyenda» del Ecuador, Pancho Segura.2 Cuando falleció a los 96 años, Jimmy Connors escribió en Twitter: «¡Qué día tan triste! Perdí a mi amigo, entrenador y mentor, el gran Pancho Segura...» Y Chris Evert, por su parte, escribió: «Que descanses en paz, Pancho Segura. Recuerdo con afecto tu humor, tu mente estratégica y tus dos manos con que jugabas en ambos lados. Fuiste un precursor. Te extrañaremos.»3 Así como Pancho Segura, también San Pablo se esforzó por legarles a sus discípulos lo que él había aprendido y practicado a lo largo de su carrera. Quiera Dios que también nosotros determinemos aprender y enseñarles esas verdades a personas que a su vez sean capaces de enseñarlas a otros, para que puedan vivir en paz con Dios ahora y descansar en paz a la hora de su partida.4 Carlos ReyUn Mensaje a la Concienciawww.conciencia.net 1 «Ecuador pierde a su mayor gloria del tenis, ‘Pancho’ Segura Cano», 19 noviembre 2017 En línea 11 enero 2021. 2 Ibíd. 3 «La historia de Pancho Segura, el ecuatoriano ex número uno que llevó a la gloria a Jimmy Connors y Chris Evert», Infobae, 21 noviembre 2017 En línea 11 enero 2021. 4 2Ti 2:2; Ro 5:1

Championships in 1965 (beating Dennis Ralston and Rafael Osuna before losing to Manuel Santana). He was one of the Handsome Eight, a group of players signed by Lamar Hunt in 1968 for the newly formed professional World Championship Tennis (WCT) group. He became president of the Association of Tennis Professionals (ATP) when it was formed by Jack Kramer, Donald Dell, and himself in 1972.

In 2013, Drysdale was elected into the International Tennis Hall of Fame.

Episode 6 - Interview with Australian writer Peter Underwood, author of The Pros: The Forgotten Era of Tennis. Peter and I discuss the pre-Open era when professional tennis players were prohibited from playing in tennis' high profile events such as the Grand Slam tournaments (Australian, French, Wimbledon, US Championships) and Davis Cup. During this era, these tournaments were reserved only for "amateurs" players who made money from "under the table" payments and minor sponsorships.From the 1920s through 1968 the select few who had the opportunity to play professional tennis made a living by playing head-to-head barnstorming tours traveling from city to city and by playing a small number of professional tournaments like the US Pro, Wembly Pro, and French Pro. Peter Underwood brings to life stories featuring Bill Tilden, Don Budge, Bobby Riggs, Jack Kramer, Pancho Gonzalez and the great Australians Lew Hoad, Ken Rosewall, and Ron Laver.  Additionally, we talk about how and why the tennis world finally united to bring professionals and amateurs together to start the Open era in 1968 which lead to the tennis boom of the 1970s.Have a suggestion for a Serve and Return Podcast guest? email Chris at cmtrieste@gmail.comChris' book - 14 Great Coaches: Learn Their Lessons, Improve Your Coaching, Have A Lasting Impact https://www.amazon.com/14-Great-Coaches-Lessons-Coaching/dp/1546856625/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr=Serve and Return Website:http://serveandreturnpodcast.buzzsprout.comTwitter:@serve_returnpod

A estas horas hay una historia… que se nos va a olvidar, tarde o temprano. “Un día fui a un partido de baseball y el jugador se enfadó tanto con el árbitro que lanzó la bola fuera del estadio”. Esto fue lo que contó un anciano estadounidense recordando un incidente entre Jack Kramer, el pitcher de los Saint Louis Browns, y el árbitro, en un partido contra los Red Sox de Boston que se jugó el 6 de junio de 1946. Este recuerdo no tendría nada de especial, si no fuera porque el anciano que lo dijo padecía Alzehimer y llevaba años sin hablar. Este pasado sábado fue el Día Mundial del Alzehimer nuestro compañero Rodrigo Zelmanowicz nos contó esta historia en las páginas de MARCA. Este espacio se ha emitido antes de su publicación como podcast en el programa "A Diario" de Radio MARCA. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Former Michigan Ross Student Jack Kramer started the popular daily email newsletter MarketSnacks while he was still working in the corporate world, and before starting his MBA at Michigan. Since then, together with his co-founding partner Nick Martell, Jack has been featured on CBS, CNN, Fortune, Fox Business, Fast Company — and they were both selected to the Forbes 30 Under 30 list this past year for their work on MarketSnacks. This incredible recognition led to a podcast deal, the podcast led to company growth, and company growth led to us calling up Jack to say “Hey man, let’s have a chat about all this.” So that’s what this episode is. Also: There’s a lot of talk about Vermont.

You probably already know MarketSnacks, the newsletter about Wall Street that makes financial news fun, accessible, and bite-sized. But did you know that its co-founders Jack Kramer and Nick Martell began MarketSnacks as a 10%?

The financial world isn’t an easy one to navigate. It’s complicated and often full of unnecessary jargon. So the easier we can make it for everybody to digest, the BETTER OFF (pun intended!) we’ll all be. That’s why when I find like-minded people who want to demystify money-related topics, I immediately ask them to be guests on the show. Nick Martell and Jack Kramer spent their early days working in finance but quickly realized something was missing. It wasn’t they wanted to do. So they started side hustling, while still working at two different Wall Street banks. Over a couple beers one day after work, they figured it out. They wanted to create something that provided easy to understand finance content, the kind they wished they had while preparing for finance interviews in college. One thing led to another and eventually the guys came up with MarketSnacks, the digestible daily newsletter that simplifies Wall Street by filtering out the noise and explaining what's important in one bite-sized snack – clear, condensed, and entertaining. On the heels of their successful newsletter, Nick and Jack recently launched the MarketSnacks Daily podcast, a daily show that focuses on the digestible business stories you'll actually care about. Yet another example of how the side hustle can pay off. Figure out what it is you want to do and find a way to make it happen! “Better Off” is sponsored by Betterment.

"There are a few people in the world you can say you’ve known for over 50 years and Donald Dell is one of them." says Our Town host Andy Ockershausen. Donald Dell, Tennis Icon Andy reads a description of Donald Dell from a Washington Post article that pretty much sums up who he is: Arguably the most powerful man in his sport, Dell is a political animal. He was an advance man for Robert Kennedy in 1966 and in RFK's presidential campaign in 1968, and in style and substance he remains a Kennedy man, equally idealistic and well-versed in practical politics. He has Establishment credentials - Landon School '56, Yale '60, Virginia Law '64 - but can wear brass sknuckles with his Ivy League suit. He is polished, sometimes charming, but not bashful about using strong-arm tactics. As a sports agent and founder of ProServ (now known as SFX), he’s represented some of the biggest names in sports such as Michael Jordan, Arthur Ashe, Moses Malone, Stan Smith, James Worthy, and John Lucas . . .In 1972, Jack Kramer and Donald Dell founded the Association of Tennis Professionals (ATP). The bylaws were written in Dell's offices, and he was the first Executive Director. He ran the ATV and was the general counsel for eight year. Donald Dell as a Tennis Player, Advance Man for RFK and Lawyer As the youngest captain ever of the US Davis Cup Team, Donald talks about the early years and how he got started in tennis. He was fortunate to have lived across the street in Bethesda from Edgemoor Tennis Club. “I lived about 50 yards away from the club and I’d play all day long, all summer long.” Andy added that Edgemoor was a hotbed of good players like Fred McNair and Fred Kovaleski. One of the great things about Edgemoor was that they had a rule, if you were a good player - highly ranked, you could get right in without having to wait, so that great players wanted to play there and Donald got the benefit of playing with the best in the sport. Playing championship tennis opened the world up to Donald to associate with movers and shakers which allowed him to take advantage of opportunities he wouldn't have otherwise. He tells a funny story about his experiences as a player in Russia, over the course of 4 years, Donald went to Russia 8 times. He was approached by the CIA to help with the defection of two top Russian players. Just as he was about to close the deal to help one of the players defect, his Russian player came home to find his beautiful wife in bed with the gym teacher. The player pulled a gun out of the night stand and shot the teacher dead. The Russian was sentence to 8 years in jail. The late Robert Kennedy was a very dear friend of Donald's. Kennedy hired Donald as his advance man of his 1968 presidential campaign. Donald was responsible for hiring Rosie Greer and other football players as part of his security detail. Bobby and his wife Ethel loved tennis and Donald played with them on a regular basis and taught him how to hit a backhand. Andy asked about Donald’s decision to go out on his own after his former law firm invited him to set up shop at Hogan & Hartson representing top tennis players. Donald said, “I decided to do my own thing with one other person." "I was really ironically the first tennis agent anywhere in the world January 1970, when I retired from the Davis Cup. . . what really helped me the most was having been a player, and being a winning captain on the Davis Cup Team." Gonzales v. Pasarell, Wooden Tennis Rackets Andy and Donald swap stories about the two day, no tie breaker Wimbeldon match between 41 year old Pancho Gonzales and a much younger Charlie Pasarell. At the time it was the longest match in history of Wimbledon. Donald and Andy continue to discuss the way tennis has changed in the past 40 years. Donald remarked that the game was all different then - equipment, surface, and how the players play, are the difference. The matches were also much shorter.

One of the first guests I had on my podcast was David Kramer, the oldest son of Jack Kramer, one of the world’s most famous tennis players of all time. One of the questions I was most excited to ask David was what advice did his father give him and he didn’t have a very clear answer.  I remember talking with my Dad after the interview telling him that I was a little bit disappointed about not getting a little nugget ... read the full article...
