Dr. Mara Einstein is an internationally recognized expert on deceptive marketing tactics who I had the pleasure of meeting at the MLM Conference. After working for a decade in corporate marketing for some of the biggest names in the business (MTV, NBC, Miller Beer), she left for academia, motivated by a desire to pull back the curtain on consumerism's dark side with the goal to persuade companies to do better and give people tools to increase their power in the marketplace. She is the author of eight books, including the forthcoming Hoodwinked: How Marketers Use the Same Tactics as Cults (Prometheus Books, 2025).

“Doing the right thing is inconvenient.” That was a powerful quote from this week's guest Bob Beaudine. Prioritizing your family over your career or business is one of the hardest things to do for high achievers. It is possible to do it successfully but it doesn't come easy. You have to make hard choices that are not convenient. Bob had one of the top executive search firms for professional sports. In fact, he basically created the niche when no one was doing it. As a result, he's placed in some of the positions in professional sports like Bud Selig, former commissioner of MLB, as well as head coaches, and presidents of NFL, NBA, and NHL teams. You can probably understand why Sports Illustrated nominated him as “The most influential man in sports you've never heard of.” His work helped transform leagues and teams with the people he placed in them. Listen to this week's episode as Bob shares how he was able to balance marriage, family, and the busy life he led in professional sports.

Have you always been this way? “Most influential man in sports you've never heard of.” Sounds like Rodney Dangerfield or Bob Uecker Bio Bob Beaudine is the President and CEO of Eastman & Beaudine. He is one of the nation's most respected search executives having conducted 100's of searches for Fortune 500 companies, entertainment entities, professional sports organizations, non-profits, Olympic bodies, and universities, among many others. Celebrating over 50 years in business, Eastman & Beaudine has been named by The Wall Street Journal as the “top recruiting firm in college sports." Sports Illustrated named Bob the “top front-office matchmaker in sports” as well as the “most influential man in sports you've never heard of." These accolades come as a result of Bob helping shape the leadership teams of NBA, MLB, NFL, and NHL franchises and league offices, in addition to university athletic departments and conferences across the nation. Bob's experience extends to the PGA TOUR, USTA, PBR, U.S. Olympics, NASCAR, UFC, and sports-related non-profits among others. Bob is the bestselling author of The Power of WHO! and 2 Chairs.

"Miller trying to 'toe' the WOKE-line 'want it both ways?'" As they say 'No Press, is Bad Press' well Bud-Light can/will tell you otherwise.

Today's "activism" is essentially a process of expressing collective community grievances and disgust, feeling there's either no control over situations or even how to react. Or hope that someone else will do it. Well, there's no someone else. Nor is there a blueprint for creating change. It's simple: "get out" and make sure every voter is informed on our issues and registered to vote. If there's a message that we believe, it is "Don't worry about rocking the boat because you are not in the boat, so rock it as hard and as often as you can." If you don't feel the wall at your back now, you should.instagram: @waybourninstagram: @fallingoutlgbtqpodtwitter: @fallinglgbtq

Do you need more joy in your life? Have you ever felt that you're going through the motions during your day, and while nothing particularly awful is happening, not much good is going on either? I went through a stretch like this recently. During days like this, I realize I could use a little more joy in my life. It surprised me a few weeks ago when I found some of the joy I was lacking. Of all the unusual places to find it, I found it in the news. In the news? Keep listening and I'll explain the joy I found, because you can find it, too. Let me show you how. Joy in the news? Really? Where I live in the state of Wisconsin in the US, September 25, 2021 was declared Bob Uecker Day to celebrate the 50 years Uecker has been calling the play-by-play broadcast of the Milwaukee Brewers baseball games. 50 years at the same job. Who does that any more? The guy is 87 years old and still working! Uecker is wildly popular with baseball fans in our area. Even marginal fans will listen to his broadcasts because of his quick-witted, self-deprecating sense of humor. He's quite entertaining with the self-effacing funny stories of his playing days and observations about life. Near the end of February when we're all sick of the dreary winter we've been through in our part of the world, the first sign of spring is Bob Uecker broadcasting spring training baseball games from Arizona. He gives us hope that spring must be just around the corner. He's like the first crocus or daffodil pushing through the leftover snow of winter. Among baseball fans, the joy of our relationship with Bob Uecker is palpable. He is also deeply loved by the ballplayers he's been describing for the past 5 decades. So much so that last year in 2020 the players on the Milwaukee Brewers voted a full share of their playoff bonus checks to Uecker. They didn't have to do that. He didn't play at all; he only described the action of those who did. And Uecker in turn donated his share to charity. What a sweet and tender gesture on the part of the team. It's a commentary about the joy of their relationship with him. Who is this man that evokes such an honor? This all raises the question, what is it about an 87-year-old man that endears him to people? How did the joy of relationships he has with so many people come to be? With his many fans, I think it is his self-deprecating sense of humor. His persona is of a guy who wasn't any good at anything - but doesn't know it. It's what made him such a hit on the Tonight Show. Miller Beer commercials, and his role in the 1989 baseball movie, Major League. Uecker is a master of the unexpected. On the day he was honored for his 50 years as a broadcaster he was given the privilege of throwing out the ceremonial first pitch of that day's game, like so many have done before him in major league baseball stadiums all across the country. Most 87-year-old would go out about 10 to 15 feet from home plate and toss the ball underhanded to a catcher. Not Uecker. He had the pitching machine used in batting practice positioned on the pitching mound, and just fed a baseball into the machine which propelled it to the catcher behind home plate. The joy of relationships with people much younger In terms of his relationship with the ballplayers, it's important to note that the average age of the players on the Milwaukee Brewers is 28.8 years Uecker is 87. What is it that bridged this gap of 58 years to bring such joy to players and fans alike? For one thing, Uecker was a ballplayer, too for 6 years, 1962-67. He played for the Milwaukee & Atlanta Braves, St. Louis Cardinals, and Philadelphia Phillies. He knew the joys and challenges of being a professional baseball player. He could relate to them, both the stars on the team and those who struggled. As a player, Uecker was a pretty good defensive catcher, but only a career .200 hitter, which he joked about all the time. In 6 years he only hit 74 RBIs and 14 home runs in 6 years. Odly enough, one of those homers was off hall of fame pitcher, Sandy Koufax. He often joked that the homer he hit almost cost Koufax his place in Cooperstown. The joy of honoring others in our relationships As much as I enjoyed seeing Bob Uecker honored for his 50 years of broadcasting for one baseball team, I found even more joy in another part of this relationship story. It comes from what the star player of the Brewers did. 29-year-old outfielder, Christian Yelich collected money from his teammates to pay Nike to manufacture one pair of specialty shoes for Uecker that displayed the phrase, “One of Us” on the heel of the shoe. Think about this for a moment, and let it sink in. One of us. Imagine what Bob Uecker must have felt to have this group of ballplayers, 58 years younger than himself, give him a gift expressing this sentiment. One of us. One of us Who of us wouldn't long to have people tell us they considered us one of them. That we belonged, that we're together as part of a larger whole. That we're wanted and appreciated by others. Christian Yelich makes $23.8 million dollars a year as a professional baseball player and he organized getting this gift to honor Bob Uecker. Yelich also had a pair of baseball spikes made for himself that look like the Nike shoes given to Uecker. All of this reminded me of the joy of relationships, and how we need to nurture them. So what does all this mean for YOU? How can you use what you've heard today to experience the joy of relationships in your life? I suggest following the ORA principle we've been talking about for some time. Observe Observe. Look around. Be curious about the world around us. Take our eyes off ourselves. There are good things happening all over the place if we take the time to look and notice the joy in relationships we come across in our daily lives. There's something within most of us that wants to be connected. We're made for relationships. Look for these connections. Reflect Reflect. Take time to think more deeply about what we observe. Many of us choose to stay too busy to reflect upon what we observe. Instead, consider the meaning behind what we see. Let it soak in. Are there themes in what we see and experience? I've been thinking a lot lately about the implications of the phrase on the back of Bob Uecker's new shoes, “One of us.” To be called this is something we have little or no control over. But it brings us to the next component of the ORA principle. Act Act. What we do have control over, is taking action ourselves, to extend ourselves to others. Get to know people younger or older than ourselves, as Bob Uecker and the baseball players have done. If people aren't honoring us, we can honor others ourselves. We can do what the apostle Paul calls us to do in Romans 12:10, Love each other with genuine affection, and take delight in honoring each other. Be for others what you would like them to be for you. This creates a measure of joy for ourselves, as Christian Yellich no doubt experienced with the Nikes he gave Bob Uecker. Here's the main point I hope you remember from today's episode One fulfilling way to enrich our lives is to observe and delight in the joy of relationships we see happening between different people all around us. I'd love to hear any thoughts you have about today's episode. Just send them to me in an email to john [at] caringforothers [dot] org. Or you can share your thoughts in the “Leave a Reply” box at the bottom of the show notes. Closing I hope your thinking was stimulated by today's show, to both reflect and to act. So that you will find the joy of relationships God intends for you. For you know by now, You Were Made for This. Well, that's all for today. I look forward to connecting with you again next week.

Rocco puts together an amazing, epic passing notes in honor of Steph Hansen filling in for Jason. Somehow half of it is commercials for Miller Beer...but that's the beauty of it
London Kaye learned to crochet at age nine. By thirteen, she was selling scarves. By twenty, she had sold enough of them to buy a car. Fast forward to today, London Kaye has designed and produced commissioned crochet artwork for companies from Miller Beer and Disney to The House of Valentino and The Gap. Her sojourn from scarves to creative crochet art took root on the streets of Manhattan with yarn bombing, wrapping knitted or crocheted art around objects in public spaces. She installed on walls and fences everything from crocheted hearts and snowflakes to fully fanned peacocks and mermaids. However, it was the dragon spewing fire for forty feet along a chain-link fence on 6th Avenue that grabbed the attention of the media. Some 800 yarn bomb creations and numerous commissions later, Kaye now lives in Los Angeles. She has published a new book Crochet with London Kaye and continues to be offered innovative projects including immersive art installations. Exclaims Kaye, “It's surprised me how many ways you can use yarn. I didn't know you could wrap a school bus in yarn, but I did. I didn't expect to crochet head to toe costumes for a Deliver.com commercial, but I did. You can use yarn to do all these amazing things.” Another surprise has been the emergence of knitting and crocheting with younger enthusiasts. She notes, “typically this is something older people do, but I feel like I'm getting this new life with the DIY generation. It's getting so much more popular with them.” Perhaps her crochet art has had an impact on this youthful invigoration. “That,” she says “really makes me happy.”

Sales & Law Enforcement aren't too different. They both require a huge amount of EQ and patience. The ability to read people and deal with high-pressure situations. The need to empathize and understand. Especially in today’s age. And in most cases, people have negative experiences with both Law enforcement & salespeople. In this episode, we will chat with California Highway Patrol Sergeant Robert Ruiz of Southern Division who worked in sales for Frito Lay & Miller Beer for 13 years prior to switching to a career in law enforcement. Huge shout out to my uncle Ralph Elvira who spent 30+ years in the CHP.

What can any entrepreneur learn from influencer entrepreneurs like Jeff Bullas, Kevin L. Jackson, and Josh Steimle? How to become the influencer of your new market? I was standing in Lipton’s testing room in Bristol with the Global Marketing Director, in 1996, learning one of the most important lessons in marketing. From my 32 years in marketing, I know that the best and easiest way to succeed in launching a new product and building a successful brand is by leading your market category. The idea is taking ownership of a market category in the minds of the customers. One of the four basic market strategy definitions is ‘what market category should we play in’. If you can’t lead the market, you should invent a new market category. The most famous example of that is probably the story about Miller Beer. Miller wanted to grow and lead the US market. However the beer market was totally saturated. And any farmer who grew barley could quite easily build a brewery in his farm and start selling beer. Miller looked for the differentiation point. Marketing was in its infancy; Miller had done research and found there is a need for a light, less bitter beer with a smaller amount of alcohol, so they invented a new kind of beer. They could have launched the new beer by calling it the new Miller Beer. But they didn’t. Instead, they called women, young drivers (and other potential audiences of such a product) to try the first light beer in the world. They didn’t promote Miller beer; they were the ‘new needed category’ They took ownership in the minds of the customers as the leader of a new kind of beer and increased dramatically the value of the Miller Brand overnight. With time, other beer producers penetrated the light beer market, however Miller Lite was, for a long time, the market leader of the light beer category. Today, Miller Lite is the third most popular beer in the US. The most interesting thing is that all three leading beers in the US today are lite beers. Entrepreneurs, who invent new products, also create new market categories. Taking ownership of this new category can be critical to the strength of your brand and the value you can achieve for your entrepreneurship. I will write in more depth about finding the right market category in one of the coming posts. Let’s go back to the testing room in Bristol. At that time, Lipton was marketed world wide as the leading tea brand in the world. By saying to me, “You should become the Queen of Tea,” this Unilever director meant that I should know everything about tea and be the voice of the worlds leading tea in Israel where I was Lipton’s marketing director. Become the voice of your new category Once you decide, based on research and market overview, what market category you can lead and take ownership of, it’s time to become the voice of this category. You should make sure to speak “in the name” of the new category and not to promote your product. People became more and more skeptical towards advertising and promotion. The equation here is simple; people want to be updated and learn about a new category and solution that is relevant for them. However, I always say that people love to buy but hate “to be sold to”. The idea of how an expert can become known in their field of expertise is brought to us by Mark Schaefer in his excellent book Known. “When I wrote my last book, Known, it was about how creating an effective, powerful personal brand is really the only sustainable, competitive advantage we can have. I was addressing the question: Could anybody become known?” Many of the successful entrepreneurs I interview on this show are recognized as influencers in their field. Before I’ll share you the practical steps you should take in order to become the influencer of you market category I’d like to share with you the stories of 4...

Judy Rodman has a rich career in singing, performing, studio engineering, producing, coaching, mentoring, publishing, blogging, podcasting, and life. When I asked her to describe the evolution of her career, she said simply "Every time I hit a brick wall, I went another way. In this crazy business, you have to be on roller skates.” If you've ever thought about hiring a vocal coach, if you are a vocal coach or ever thought about being one, you need to look her up, after listening to this episode of course. If you're a vocalist or public speaker, this episode is especially for you. If you're already a fan of this podcast, you too are in for a treat. Judy's Street Cred Judy's commercial and artist collaboration credits are vast. There are in fact too many to list here; but allow me to cherry pick. 2011 "Best Vocal Coach", Nashville Music Pros 1996 "Top New Country Female, Billboard Magazine 1985 "Top New Female Vocalist", ACM Voice over talent for United Airlines, Miller Beer, McDonalds, Kelloggs, Chevrolet, Lay's Potato Chips, Biz Bleach, Opryland, thousands of radio ID spots and voice overs Background vocalist, arranger and/or contractor on hundreds of master albums, live shows and TV for artists including Johnny Cash, Janie Fricke, Tom Jones, Elvis Presley, Crystal Gail, Jerry Lee Lewis, Ray Charles, Tammy Wynette, Lee Greenwood, Dolly Parton, Reba, Wynonna, George Strait, George Jones, and many more Her experience consists of so much more, including: recording artist, songwriter, musician, public speaker, actor… it's a little mind boggling. Her breadth of work comes from adaptation to what she reflects on as an ever changing music industry. Her beginnings in coaching and mentoring arguably began after the jingle market and work she'd done with LeAnn Rimes slowed down. At this time Judy was approached by a backup singer who was working with Lynyrd Skynyrd. This particular singer was having difficulty with a small part of her performance. Judy was surprised by the request, but she had developed a reputation that reputation came from working with many bands and artists. It was this incident that helped Judy realize she had a skill and a gift for teaching and mentoring vocalists. Advice from 50 Years in the Business Judy drops a few business and life tips in our conversation, including the following. You're have to find multiple streams of income [as a music artist] When you hit a brick wall, you have to ask yourself, what else can I do? You have to want to sing even if it doesn't pay Judy's a proponent of making making your own website as a central marketing hub for your music career. She's seen the peril that can come from basing ones business on another company's web property, and drives her point home by asking, "Remember MySpace?" I've personally know of at least one business that used a Facebook Group as it's primary hub. That business was decimated by a Facebook algorithm change. Her focus is on the professional singers and speakers, and working with people who are vocally strained. Judy says that the most challenging vocal/music genre is the genre that's wrong for the singer. She teaches a pulling technique that gets her clients into the language they need to speak. Her ideal client is someone who's serious about the voice, but she points out that most people who aren't serious, are afraid to show that they're not great. Her first objective with clients is to earn their trust. She tells me that she starts this process by saying to clients, “My office is the safest place you'll ever suck.” "Everything I do informs everything else I do.” Judy continues to write music and does work in the area of vocal production. As a vocal producer, she works to help studio production teams get vocals done in the most economical and the "most magical" way possible. Vocals are the most important asset of a music project, in Judy's opinion. When I asked her advice on bringing vocal coaches to the studio, Judy warns that producers have to be careful. There's a technical side and an artistic side, she continues. She compares being a vocal production specialist to being a midwife, in that vocal production is like helping to birth a baby. She has to be aware of what the producer wants from the project vocals, and wants to ensure that engineers don't have to stitch things together. With proper vocal production, Judy says, engineers and recording artists end up with a more natural sound and delivery. The engineer can thus concentrate on other aspects of the mix. Judy works to set singers up physically and psychologically to the idea of singing to an imaginary friend. She calls this singing to one person, or one heart. As an educator, Judy shares tons of great content in her "All Things Vocal" Podcast, on her website, and in her Facebook Group. She has a gift for anticipating curiosity that she says comes from her own sense of curiosity. "Articulate as to the selectively deaf. As artists we have to break through the noise. If we articulate like we really want to get someone's attention. If the objective is to get a response, then the way you form your words are going to get different responses." The Honesty of Slight Imperfection When I asked Judy what she saw as the biggest challenges facing vocalists today, she said that things may full circle back to organic sound, as opposed to today's sanitized and perfectly pitched recordings. She adds that real live performance moves endorphins through the brain, and that the ability to actually sing in tune will become more successful again. She calls this the honesty of slight imperfection. "Look for and adapt to reactions. Make the person your talking to part of the equation using your voice. We're not just talking at people." On marketing, Judy says her technique is to show that you can trust her. If you can't afford her $19 course, she can still teach you something. Her one-on-one training is isn't cheap, but she shares a lot of great content so that everyone will have an opportunity to learn. She says, "If you can't trust me, you can still learn from me." Judy likely sees her passion for educating and mentoring as she sees art. She says that art is in the giving, and when we're making art, we're delivering messages. This in Judy's words means, "It's important to listen too." You can also hear this podcast on Apple Podcasts, iTunes, Stitcher, Google Play Music, iHeartRadio, YouTube & Spotify.

Judy Rodman has a rich career in singing, performing, studio engineering, producing, coaching, mentoring, publishing, blogging, podcasting, and life. When I asked her to describe the evolution of her career, she said simply "Every time I hit a brick wall, I went another way. In this crazy business, you have to be on roller skates.” If you've ever thought about hiring a vocal coach, if you are a vocal coach or ever thought about being one, you need to look her up, after listening to this episode of course. If you're a vocalist or public speaker, this episode is especially for you. If you're already a fan of this podcast, you too are in for a treat. Judy's Street Cred Judy's commercial and artist collaboration credits are vast. There are in fact too many to list here; but allow me to cherry pick. 2011 "Best Vocal Coach", Nashville Music Pros 1996 "Top New Country Female, Billboard Magazine 1985 "Top New Female Vocalist", ACM Voice over talent for United Airlines, Miller Beer, McDonalds, Kelloggs, Chevrolet, Lay's Potato Chips, Biz Bleach, Opryland, thousands of radio ID spots and voice overs Background vocalist, arranger and/or contractor on hundreds of master albums, live shows and TV for artists including Johnny Cash, Janie Fricke, Tom Jones, Elvis Presley, Crystal Gail, Jerry Lee Lewis, Ray Charles, Tammy Wynette, Lee Greenwood, Dolly Parton, Reba, Wynonna, George Strait, George Jones, and many more Her experience consists of so much more, including: recording artist, songwriter, musician, public speaker, actor… it's a little mind boggling. Her breadth of work comes from adaptation to what she reflects on as an ever changing music industry. Her beginnings in coaching and mentoring arguably began after the jingle market and work she'd done with LeAnn Rimes slowed down. At this time Judy was approached by a backup singer who was working with Lynyrd Skynyrd. This particular singer was having difficulty with a small part of her performance. Judy was surprised by the request, but she had developed a reputation that reputation came from working with many bands and artists. It was this incident that helped Judy realize she had a skill and a gift for teaching and mentoring vocalists. Advice from 50 Years in the Business Judy drops a few business and life tips in our conversation, including the following. You're have to find multiple streams of income [as a music artist] When you hit a brick wall, you have to ask yourself, what else can I do? You have to want to sing even if it doesn't pay Judy's a proponent of making making your own website as a central marketing hub for your music career.

Marc Bluestein, Founder and CEO of Aquarius Sports and Entertainment, shares his passion for sports and marketing with Our Town host Andy Ockershausen in this all new episode of Our Town podcast. He is originally from Philadelphia, but grew up in Our Town, and as Andy tells him "is a big part of Our Town". Marc Bluestein, also known as "Blue", grew up playing baseball and always dreamed of playing college ball. After high school he attended the University of Tampa and successfully “walked on” to the university’s baseball team. He realized after a short time that he couldn’t compete in Division 2 baseball in Tampa, and ended up transferring to the University of South Florida to concentrate on his studies. While at USF, Marc interned with the Tampa Bay Lightning after they joined the NHL in the 1992-93. He came back to Our Town after college, but is quick to say that Tampa holds a special place in his heart. Blue began his career in Our Town with W.B. Doner Advertising in Baltimore. He eventually moved close to Doner’s offices in Baltimore and lived with three roommates. His starting salary was $18,000 and rent was $195 month. Marc would spend weekends with his then girlfriend in DC. Marc Bluestein’s Doner accounts included FILA, marketing tennis as well as ski and snowboarding, as well as MidAtlantic Milk Marketing Association and First National Bank of Maryland, which later became All First and then M&T. These accounts not only involved media planning and buying but they all used sports sponsorships and sports media buys as part of their communications platform. For instance, FILA’s first big deal signed was with Sammy Sousa as endorser. Marc had become the sports marketing expert and was made Sports Marketing Manager at 23. He used this opportunity to build his own foundation for his career in sports marketing. After a few years, Blue packed a U-Haul and moved to Manhattan, where he had always dreamed of working. At 26, Marc Bluestein went to NY to work for DMB&B and then Mediavest. Blue’s client list was impressive and he was able to grow his sports marketing experience further. For example, he worked with Coca-Cola Classic expanding their NFL & NASCAR programs. He also worked with Norelco who worked with MLB, X-Games and Gravity Games. One of the Norelco promotions was the 21 day challenge which involved ESPN radio’s Mike and Mike and Jim Rome. Blue took advantage of an opportunity to move to Sports Illustrated. He drew upon his sports sponsorship experience to help them grow from selling print ads to offering sponsorship opportunities. SI wanted to take their brand and grow their two franchises with sponsorship opportunities. Marc Bluestein recalls the details of two incredible SI promotions that involved Miller Beer and Pontiac, respectively. You will want to listen in to the interesting stories of behind these promotions. Marc and his wife decided to move to Washington DC, so Marc finished up in New York at Sports Illustrated and they came back to Our Town where he worked at Home Team Sports, now Comcast Sportsnet. The offer to come back was attractive, in part, because he would be working with all the sports teams he loved. Andy compliments Marc on the work he did at Comcast Sportsnet. He was a star and brought a touch of New York advertising with him, which benefitted his new employer. Looking to advance, grow and figure it all out, Marc started looking at relocating but ended up accepting advice and guidance from a former client, Rick DiBella and, his boss, Jeff Parsigian. They suggested that he start his own business. So. . .9 years ago during the Thanksgiving holiday he downloaded an online template and completed a 15 page business plan, which was the impetus for his new company, Aquarius Sports Group. Andy and Marc discuss the very personal nature of the name Aquarius, and what prompted Marc to take the risk to start his own business.
