I'm back this week with yet another inspiring underdog story... but make it Christmas! This week, I'll trace the origins of one of the most beloved Christmas characters, Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer, all the way back to his roots on the desk of a department story copywriter in 1939 Chicago. Robert L. May was down on his luck when his boss at Montgomery Ward asked him to write a children's book that the store could hand out to customers at Christmas time. He was in debt, his wife was dying of cancer, he was struggling to support his 4 year old daughter, and he was far from achieving his dream of becoming a great American writer. But, just like his underrated title character, Robert rose to the occasion and gave the world something it needed, something that mattered.Read May's original Rudolph manuscript and listen to his daughter Barbara May Lewis read it here!

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas! And nothing says Christmas like classic TV holiday specials! Over the next two weeks, we'll be toasting and roasting two of the most famous from the duo of Rankin and Bass. Which of them belongs on the Nice List and which one deserves a shiny lump of coal in its stocking. This is Legends of Christmas! Airing sixty years ago this month, the first Rankin and Bass Christmas special asked if you recall the most famous reindeer of all. Based on the children's book by Robert L. May, originally published by Montgomery Ward, and made perhaps even more famous by the Gene Autry version of song written by May's brother-in-law Johnny Marks. The most famous version of all is the TV special produced by Arthur Rankin Jr. and Jules Bass, sponsored by GE, which aired on NBC and adapted the original story into an “Animagic” stop-motion saga featuring Rudolph, Hermey, Sam the Snowman, Yukon Cornelius, the Bumble, and more. An instant classic, Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer kicked off a tradition of Rankin/Bass Christmas specials, including Frosy the Snowman, Santa Claus Is Comin' to Town, and The Year Without a Santa Claus. But does this one go down in history, or down in flames? For more geeky podcasts visit GonnaGeek.com You can find us on iTunes under ''Legends Podcast''.

Chi Chi's making a comeback, local news is not and the time is now to announce a run for La Crosse mayor — all things we broke down on Friday's La Crosse Talk PM with UW-La Crosse political science professor, Dr. Anthony Chergosky. We began the show picking WIZM News reporter Brad Williams' brain about that mayoral election — up to three candidates now — and when the Chi Chi's closed in La Crosse. The Mexican restaurant is making a comeback. After that, we got into a deep dive on local journalism as WXOW axed a lot of its staff earlier in the week, and how important hometown media is when it comes to local elections — like mayor, city council and school referendums. That conversation also included how there are three candidates for La Crosse mayor (Shaundel Spivey, Ellie McLoone and Vicki Markussen), four years after there were 10. And there really isn't much time to announce, as the deadline to file is Jan. 7 but the primary to cut the field to two is Feb. 20. Ended the show first chatting about Williams' awesome Yesterday in La Crosse article on the history of downtown La Crosse shopping, where Sears, JCPenny, Herberger's and Montgomery Ward were all located. Then we quickly hit on the TikTok ban moving forward in the U.S. La Crosse Talk PM airs weekdays at 5:06 p.m. Listen on the WIZM app, online here, or on 92.3 FM / 1410 AM / 106.7 FM (north of Onalaska).

Montgomery Ward produced one of the largest mail order catalogs in the US, starting way back in the 1870s. By the time the 1950s rolled around, they were including electric guitars, like the Upbeat. Our example is a stereo version, and left us scratching our heads more than we thought it would. But it sounds good, and plays well, as most budget instruments built by the Chicago Boys did in the day. Enjoy! Like the show?

A few years ago, at the very start of the pandemic, Roman Mars wrote an episode of 99pi in which he simply talked about design details in his house -- realizing that he, like the audience, didn't have many other places to go. (You should check it out. It's called "Roman Mars Describes Things As They Are"-- it's a real time capsule and a fan favorite.) Since then, he's been thinking about and wanting to record a companion episode out in the world.Over the next couple months, he's going to three cities that shaped who Roman is and how he thinks about design. We'll start in Chicago. Chicago is a design lover's paradise, from its carefully thought-out original grid to its exceptionally stellar flag design. The city is home to some of the most influential architecture in the US as well.Roman Mars Describes Chicago As It IsNote: This series is made possible by the new 2024 Lexus GX and SiriusXM.

SEASON 4 / EPISODE 8: When looking back at his childhood, Michael's single greatest Christmas was when we walked into the living room to find a beautiful gold and silver bike from Montgomery Ward leaning against the wall. And he's been hooked ever since. As he grew, so did his style of riding and the types of bikes that where associated — from BMX with giant back-yard jumps to a Schwinn Varsity that he took for a 100-mile ride when he was only 12 while listening to 38 Special on repeat. Later in his teens he found inspiration watching the Tour de France on The Wide World of Sports and still has a special fondness for John Tesh which he's more than happy to admit. These days you can find him riding with his sons or helping kids find the joy of MTB racing through the Southern Maine Mountain Bike Syndicate, which he helped to start. -- Included in the "Best 40 Cycling Podcasts" on Feedspot: https://blog.feedspot.com/cycling_podcasts/ Follow on INSTAGRAM Follow on FACEBOOK Visit iRIDEaBIKE.com -- A Production of I RIDE, LLC Theme Song by Spencer Albee.

It was great! It sold! It's the bloody Beatles' White Album! And, no, Paul; we won't shut up. Because part one of the UBP Deep Dish on “The Beatles” is finally here! Tony and T.J. are sniffer-level giddy to discuss this album-unlike-any-other. And in part one, the Two Little Piggies delve into the history and packaging (#DingDongDingDong) of one of only two official Beatles-canon albums to be known, colloquially, by two names. (The other is “Tomorrow Never Knows”, which most first-gen fans know as, of course, “File Under Rock”.) And despite this record's massive length and girth (Sfx: a pained, guttural groan), Tony & T.J. find the time to ask:
Welcome to December 20, 2022 on the National Day Calendar. Today we celebrate festive drinks and songs that stick. Sangria originated in early Greek and Roman times when safe drinking water was not always available. Alcohol killed the bacteria in water and fruit made it even more drinkable. The word Sangria comes from the Spanish and Portuguese word for blood, which speaks to its color, though folks now use both red and white wines and even limoncello. At the 1964 World's Fair, Americans added an extra shot of brandy, for bonus warmth and cheer. What makes sangria truly special is the variety of flavor combinations of its seasonal fruits. No matter what's available today you can add some sparkle to your holiday party on National Sangria Day. In 1939, the department store Montgomery Wards wanted to create their own Christmas character. They had been giving away coloring books as a promotion each year, but decided that designing their own would save money. Robert L. May was given the task and was inspired by his daughter's love for reindeer. While staring out the window at the fog, Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer sprang to life and the iconic Christmas story was born. Rudolf eventually made his way into a song and the rest is Yuletide history. On Go Caroling Day, celebrate with your favorite songs and don't forget the most famous reindeer of all.

River Ridge Mall opened in 1980 with Miller & Rhoads and Thalhimers. Sears and Leggett (now Belk) opened in 1981. JCPenney opened in 1983. Miller & Rhoads closed and became Montgomery Ward in 1990,[3] which closed in 1997 and became Value City in 1999. In 1992, the Thalhimer's store was converted to Hecht's,[4] which in turn became Macy's in 2006. CBL & Associates Properties acquired the mall from Faison in 2003.[5] --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/wvuncommonplace/message

The Old Dogs ramble about... rambling - on the open highway. This ramble was insired by our first podnugget, the first cross-country road trip. We note the passing of Marsha Hunt, a veteran actress and activist who lived to one hundred and four. We take a look at the so-called Takeaway Rembrandt. We get a little salty with the Morton Salt Girl. and we find that great ideas often occur in the shower. The Old Dogs conversation is with Bob Dauber, whose career as a production guy included Montgomery Ward and... Barney?
Eighty-eight percent of the Fortune 500 companies that existed in 1955 are gone. Poof.Half of them withered because they had a manager in the role of CEO when they desperately needed a leader. The other half were destroyed by a leader when a manager could have held the company together and grown it incrementally. The most important role of a board of directors is to know when their company needs a leader and when it needs a manager. Managers prefer incremental change, evolution. Leaders prefer exponential change, revolution. Managers guard the status quo. “If it ain't broke, don't fix it.” Leaders invent new ways of thinking. “If it ain't broke, break it, so we can create something new.” Managers prefer a map and a path. Leaders prefer unexplored territory. Managers say, “Ready, Aim, Fire.” Leaders say “Ready, Fire, Aim.” But this isn't as crazy as it sounds. When shooting a cannon, this is called finding your range. Managers focus on planning and execution. Leaders focus on improvisation and innovation. Managers make organizational charts. Leaders make messes. Managers are given authority over others. Leaders are voluntarily followed by others. Kodak, Blockbuster, MySpace, General Motors, and General Electric were overwhelmingly dominant in their categories until their Manager-CEO's fell asleep while guarding the status quo. Do not think the internet killed K-Mart, Montgomery Wards, Sears, J.C. Penney, or Bed Bath & Beyond. Walmart sells all those same products and they're still doing fine because they saw the marketplace rapidly changing in August, 2016 and responded by putting visionary leader Marc Lore in charge of Walmart's US e-commerce operations. Amazon did $398.8 billion in 2021.Walmart did $488 billion.Managers mistakenly think they can lead. Leaders mistakenly think they can manage. I know only two men who can perform both functions. Dewey Jenkins is one of them. If I written those words during the 10 years Dewey and I worked together, it would have sounded like flattery. But now that he is retired and I have stepped away, I am free to speak the truth. Good mothers can also perform both functions. Every good mother is a miraculous manager and a visionary leader. I was raised by an extremely good mother and my sons were raised by another. Good managers know what to “protect at all costs.” They know what not to change. Bad managers look only for compliance and conformity, blind to the special abilities that hide within their employees. But good managers see those special abilities and call them to the surface where they can sparkle. A good manager encourages your special ability and uses it to maximum effect, while partnering you with someone who sparkles in the area where you are weak. When you see a legendary duo, you can be sure that a brilliant manager put them together. The genius of visionary leaders is that they charge full speed ahead when they see opportunity on the horizon. When they see a storm coming, they steer around it. Visionary leaders recognize what is no longer working and do hesitate to change it. Bang. Gone. If you want to listen to the inner thoughts of visionary leaders and understand how their minds work, there are only two books you need to read. Sam Walton: Made in America (John Huey and Sam Walton) Iacocca: An Autobiography (Lee Iacocca and William Novak) As a special bonus to yourself, take a look at – https://www.amazon.com/Where-Have-All-Leaders-Gone/dp/1416532471/ref=tmm_hrd_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=1663430767&sr=8-1 (Where Have All the Leaders Gone?) – a slim volume written by Lee Iacocca when he was 82 years old. I love that book. And I love you, too. Thanks for reading my ramblings. Roy H.
