Veepee (ex Ventes Privées), Showroomprivé, Zalando. Des noms qui dominent très fortement le paysage de l'e-commerce français. Comment les concurrencer ? The Bradery a trouvé la solution : S'adresser aux 18-35 ans. Un gros coup de pied dans la fourmilière. “Nos concurrents vendent à nos mamans, nous vendons à nos copines” C'est avec ce slogan bien assumé qu'Edouard Caraco se lance dans ce pari fou. Il cofonde The Bradery en 2018. Le concept est simple. Vendre à sa communauté, les stocks non écoulés des meilleures marques françaises (mode, lifestyle, voyage, …). Petit à petit, les marques leur font confiance, les clients aussi, leur communauté grossit, jusqu'au Covid où tout explose : une vente Sandro fait péter les compteurs et le site enregistre plus d'1 million d'euros de vente en une matinée. Boum. L'histoire de The Bradery n'aurait jamais vu le jour sans Tim, son associé, son ami d'enfance, son “frère de cœurcoeur”, comme il aime le dire. Ensemble, ils entreprennent depuis leur 18 ans, et The Bradery est la troisième société qu'ils fondent ensemble. Selon Edouard, The Bradery est avant tout un métier d'opportunités. La marque attire l'attention des grands groupes, les deux jeunes hommes étudient les options qui s'offrent à eux. En 2022, ils décident d'accepter le rachat par Showroomprivé pour bénéficier de son expertise. A mon micro, Edouard est venu me raconter leur ascension fulgurante : Un chiffre d'affaire qui a atteint 60 millions d'euros en 5 ans ; 80% de ceu chiffre d'affaires provenant de l'application ; 314 000 followers sur Instagram ; Plus d'1M de produits expédiés par an. Aujourd'hui, The Bradery collabore avec les plus grandes marques du “luxe abordable” : MAJE, Ba&sh, Mango, Sandro… Découvrez dans cet épisode : Le jour où The Bradery à collaboré avec Léna Mahfouf @Léna Situations ; La nouvelle génération d'es entrepreneurs No Code ; Le rachat de The Bradery par Showroomprivé ; Comment Edouard Caraco a réussi à convaincre les fondatrices de Ba&sh de travailler avec lui ; Le jour où 12 allemands ont débarqué dans les locaux de The Bradery.

Welcome to Mysteries to Die For.I am TG Wolff and am here with Jack, my piano player and producer. This is a podcast where we combine storytelling with original music to put you in the heart of a mystery. Some episodes are original stories, others will be classics that helped shape the mystery genre we know today. All are structured to challenge you to beat the detective to the solution. These are arrangements, which means instead of word-for-word readings, you get a performance meant to be heard. Jack and I perform these live, front to back, no breaks, no fakes, no retakes.This is Season 5, Move It or Lose It. This season contains original stories paying homage to the vehicles that propel mysteries forward. A train was the setting for Agatha Christie's famed Murder on the Orient Express. A river boat then took center stage on Death on the Nile. Cars have been prominently featured in American crime stories with the glory of the get-a-way vehicle. Then there are the heists from carriages to trains to armored trucks. For Episode 8, a prized Percheron is the featured vehicle. (That's a horse.) This is GTA: Pennsylvania Dutch by Ken HarrisSupport our show by subscribing, telling a mystery lover about us, and giving us a five-star review.

Evenings are spent playing Walkabout Mini Golf and cheering on Philadelphia sports. Ken firmly believes Pink Floyd, Irish whiskey and a Montecristo cigar are the only muses necessary.

Welcome to Mysteries to Die For and this Toe Tag.I am TG Wolff and am here with Jack, my piano player and producer. This is normally a podcast where we combine storytelling with original music to put you at the heart of mystery, murder, and mayhem. Today is a bonus episode we call a Toe Tag. It is the first chapter from a fresh release in the mystery, crime, and thriller genre.Today's featured release is A Bad Bout of the Yips by Ken Harris The A Bad Bout of the Yips was released March 9, 2023 from Black Rose Publishing and is available from AMAZON LINK and other book retailers.About Ken HarrisKen Harris retired from the FBI, after thirty-two years, as a cybersecurity executive. With over three decades writing intelligence products for senior Government officials, Ken provides unique perspectives on the conventional fast-paced crime thriller. He is the author of the From the Case Files of Steve Rockfish series. He spends days with his wife Nicolita, and two Labradors, Shady and Chalupa Batman. Evenings are spent playing Walkabout Mini Golf and cheering on Philadelphia sports. Ken firmly believes Pink Floyd, Irish whiskey and a Montecristo cigar are the only muses necessary. He is a native of New Jersey and currently resides in Northern Virginia.TG Wolff ReviewA Bad Bout of the Yips is a PI mystery. Partners Steve Rockfish and Jawnie McGee are neck deep in the kind of trouble that puts you six feet under. First, there is the case. Their clients are being threatened and their property burned to incentivize them to sell their putt putt business. Then, there is the next streaming show. Angel is coming to talk. And so is his money. Finally, there's the mob. Annetta Provolone may be under house arrest but Jawnie's the one who is locked down until the retrial. Nothing goes right. Not a single, damn thing.Bottom line: A Bad Bout of the Yips is for you if you like stubborn private investigators with smart mouths and ideas so bad, they're great.Strengths of the story. It's a hard call on whether the characters, the fast-paced storytelling style, or the dynamic storylines is the starring feature. Together, they hit the trifecta of PI mysteries. There is enough humor and irreverence to keep Yips from becoming too heavy even as the ruthlessness of the mob characters has you worried for everyone's well-being.Where the story fell short of ideal: There only place the story fell short of ideal was Siri listening to Jawnie and doing what she wanted the first time she asked. Ken Harris is truly living in a fantasy world. Beyond that, there isn't a place where the story fell short. It is the third in a continuing story and, IMO, would be best enjoyed after reading the prior installments. Don't think of it as a gotta do, think of it as a get to do.

Today we wrap up the epic classic, The Count of Monte Cristo by Alexandre Dumas. The link to the book is the exact version and translation we read and thoroughly enjoyed. We discuss some new characters that show up in the second half of the book and talk about our favorite quotes. Also discussed are themes of betrayal, vengeance, retribution, wealth and power. Although this novel was completed in 1844, it still brings impactful and relevant messages for us today. Dumas shows us how vengeance is never as sweet as we think it will be. The Count of Monte Cristo is an insightful, educational, and intriguing read that we will carry with us as we journey down our literature road. The book ends with a beautiful quote, “All human wisdom is contained in these two words: ‘wait' and ‘hope'!” ======================================================================================================================= Be sure to let us know if you have read this novel or if you have books you would like to recommend.

Would you die for your beliefs? Five hundred years ago, in an age marked by war, plague, inequality, and religious coercion, there were people across Europe who dared to imagine a society of sharing, peace, and freedom of conscience. These radicals were ready to die for their vision. They were executed by the thousands—by water, by fire, and by sword—in both Catholic and Protestant states. Next year, Plough Publishing House will present BY WATER: THE FELIX MANZ STORY, the first of a three-volume graphic novel series that dramatically and creatively evokes a little-known chapter in the history of Europe's Reformation. Written by Jason Landsel and featuring art by Sankha Banerjee, BY WATER is a compelling and timely story about young people standing up for truth against the corrupt political and religious leaders of their day. “Felix Manz was the son of a Catholic priest who became an unlikely leader and ultimately the very first martyr of the Radical Reformation,” said writer Jason Landsel. “BY WATER chronicles the real life conflict between Manz and his mentor, the establishment reformer Ulrich Zwingli. Manz revered Zwingli as a father figure, but ended up being drowned on Zwingli's orders for insisting that only believers should be baptized.” “This trilogy tells the story of the radicals from the Reformation period who tried to build an alternative society inspired by Gutenberg's Bible and Thomas More's Utopia,” said Plough Publishing House Editor Sam Hine. “These graphic novels skillfully combine historical figures and events with imagined scenes and encounters to create an ambitious, action-packed and historically accurate account of young people standing up for their convictions.” BY WATER: THE FELIX MANZ STORY will be published by Plough Publishing House on March 21, 2023 and will be followed by subsequent volumes titled BY FIRE and BY SWORD. Plough Publishing House, founded in 1920, is an independent publisher of books on faith, society, and the spiritual life. The company is based in Walden, New York with branches in the United Kingdom and Australia. Plough also publishes Plough Quarterly, a bold new magazine of stories, ideas, and culture to inspire faith and action. Jason Landsel is a New York-based writer and illustrator with a lifelong fascination with the history of social and religious radicalism. As a contributing art director to Plough Quarterly, his artwork is featured in a regular column of the magazine. He is a member of the Bruderhof, an Anabaptist community movement that traces its roots to the Radical Reformation. Sankha Banerjee has illustrated graphic novel adaptations of The Count of Monte Cristo and The Wind in the Willowsand well as graphic historical biographies of Nelson Mandela, Martin Luther King Jr., and the Wright brothers. His works have been exhibited at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Lyon, France, and the India International Centre in Delhi. He is an assistant professor in the Department of Multimedia and Animation, St. Xavier's College, Kolkata, India. Richard Mommsen, who assisted in historical research and scriptwriting for By Water, is also a videographer, podcast producer, and director of the Bruderhof's historical archives.
