Episode SummaryWith Air.inc securing $35M in funding, the creative operations world is facing a major inflection point. In this solo episode, Nish Patel explores what this investment means for creative ops leaders, why the concept of a "system of record for creative work" is critical, and how creative professionals can seize this moment to elevate their roles from tactical execution to strategic systems design. This isn't just about one company—it's about an industry-wide shift that demands creative ops leaders rethink their approach to scale, speed, and storytelling.Key Takeaways   Creative Ops is at a Turning Point:Air's funding is a signal that creative ops is being recognized as a strategic function.The industry is shifting from project management toward systematizing creative workflows at scale. The Importance of a System of Record for Creative Work:Other operational functions (RevOps, SalesOps) have CRMs as a central hub—creative ops has lacked one.Air is positioning itself to be the foundational platform for creative operations. Creative Intelligence: A Leap Beyond Project Management:The shift from scattered workflows to structured creative intelligence will enable smarter decision-making.The best creative ops leaders will think in terms of designing systems, not just managing tasks.Tech as a Partner in Creativity, Not Just a Tool:The right technology should reduce admin burdens and free up time for creative work.A well-implemented system can enhance both speed and creative quality simultaneously.Storytelling is the Competitive Advantage in an AI-Driven Market:With AI and automation increasing content production, the real differentiator will be brand and storytelling.Creative ops leaders must ensure that efficiency doesn't come at the cost of emotional resonance and impact.Should Creative Ops Take a Stronger Role in Tech Evaluation?Nish is considering a series of podcast episodes evaluating creative ops tools.Understanding the "what, why, and how" behind these tools can help leaders make better decisions.Additional ResourcesAir.inc Website: https://air.incEpisode Reference: Shane, CEO of Air, was previously a guest on the Creative Ops Podcast.

National cheesesteak day lands on March 24th, and we're celebrating the Philadelphia foodie favorite with Del Rossi's Cheesesteak Company's owner, Nish Patel.  Nish, who acquired ownership of Del Rossi's Cheesesteak Co pre-pandemic, completely renovated the space and its menu.  After bringing Chef Gregorio Fierro on as his confer, Chef Fierro implemented changes to the dough that inevitably enhanced the flavor & profiles of their menu.  Included in some of the changes made were artisanal options as well as sourcing their ingredients from the freshest and highest-quality purveyors, which garnered the tastiest Pizzas, Cheesesteaks, and coming-soon: Calazones, around! We then spoke with one of Bilal's Bakery & Deli co-owners, Chef Jamela Bilal.  This is not the first time one of the Bilal family members opened an eatery, nor their first business. Chef Bilal, whose parents also own and run a cleaning business in the Philadelphia region, has deep roots within the culinary community. Jamela's roots are within the Halal community, of which she owns and operates Halal To Go.  In addition to running her business, Chef Bilal also works with her family to run Bilal's Bakery located in Jenkintown, PA. A year-plus since they held their Grand Opening, the multi-generational family-owned Bilal's Bakery joined us on Food Farms and Chefs to discuss their baked goods; pre-packaged foods; and the impact that they have on their community as well as information on Ramadan and the schedule they'll keep during the month-long period of reflection, prayer, fasting.  This week's episode of Food, Farms, & Chefs is perfectly timed, since it also falls on International Whiskey Day (March 27th)!  As such, we spoke with New Liberty Distillery's Director of Visitor's Experience, Jacob Looney.  Together, we unraveled the lengthy history behind New Liberty Distillery and their Owners, and even included their close-knit bond with Ireland. Collectively, Robert Cassell and Steven Grasse own several Distilleries in the US, and collaborate with a company called The Connacht Distillery in Ireland.  The duo operates under their parent company, named Milestone spirits Group, offering a wide variety of whiskeys; bourbons; liqueurs and aperitifs.  So if you fancy a flight of whiskey, set up a tour at New Liberty Distillery with Jacob, and afterwards feel free to taste their award-winning libations for yourselves.

Bob and Dale are joined by Craig Schneider in this week's show. They answer another newbie question from Liz about what causes a cigar to burn unevenly. Listener Dan Crouch recommends a couple of value cigars. David Zulch, one of the winners of a 5-pack of La Tradicion Cubana cigars in last month's contest, writes in to thank DWCR and Luis Sanchez. The Cigar of the Week, the Xen by Nish Patel, was provided by Duque Cigar Company in Indialantic, Florida. The cigar featured in the What's My Band segment of the show, the Perdomo Patriarch Maduro Epicure, was suggested by listener Jeff Curtis. Enter November's Silver Palio Cutter Contest by sending a photo of you or your friends enjoying a cigar to theshow@cigarmedia.tv. (Don't forget to include your mailing address and type "Palio" on the subject line.) To see the contest pictures, click on the Contest icon on the www.cigarmedia.tv home page. Remember you must re-enter each month to be eligible to win. Check out the live show! Go to http://www.cigarmedia.tv/live/ where the show is broadcast live most Friday evenings at 9 PM EDT. Cigar of the Week - The Xen by Nish Patel brought to us by Duque Cigars (http://www.duquecigars.com/, 410 5th Avenue Indialantic, FL) XEN is a box pressed cigar with an Ecuador Connecticut wrapper, Nicaragua binder and a “secret” filler. Sizes: Short Robusto: 4 x 54; Robusto: 5 x 50; Toro: 6 x 52; and Torpedo: 6 1/8 x 52. What else have you been smokin' Craig? Pedro Martin Gold - A typical Connecticut looking wrapper with a unique looking blend of tobacco viewed from the foot. Very different color ligero & seco. Deep spicy prelight but medium bodied, ‘soft’ flavored smoke. Unique orange-zest taste. A nice approachable, yet complex, blend for a mild strengthed cigar. What else have you been smokin' Dale? Pedro Martin Ruby Torpedo -Spicy, clean and bright! Not as much richness or depth as the Corojo What else have you been smokin' Bob? Pedro Martin Corojo 6x60 - Deliberate draw, full flavored cedar, leather with a touch of spice. Dry finish. This is a lot of cigar. Densely packed, great burn. The last third developes some strong nicotine flavors. Unfortunately, the cigar in this size becomes drier as you smoke it - to the point I had to just stop. Torano 1916 Cameroon - Smooth as a baby’s bottom and loaded with easygoing flavors of cedar, leather and spice. A delightfully light smoke with flavor. Chinnock Cellars Terroir - A nice medium bodied smoke that goes well with other things like wine, cheese and chocolate. However, the cigar does not stand out on its own and becomes a bit boring after awhile. What's My Band?- This week's unbanded, the Perdomo Patriarch Maduro Epicure, was suggested by listener Jeff Curtis. Bob: Very barnyard on the prelight aroma (I liked it); mottled wrapper. Loved the first rush of flavors and an easy draw. Great cedar and bitter chocolate flavors. Throughout, the cigar delivers lots of flavors very consistently. I am enjoying this cigar very much so I hope its an inexpensive one! Craig: Smells like Nicaragua; the pilon that’s just about ready to be sorted. Deep dark & woody. Lighting reveals a lot of pent up strength. It goes well with my Tanzanian Blackdog Coffee and almost overpowers my underworked palate. Coffee, cedar & BITTER cocoa dominate this enjoyable smoke. Reminiscent of a Pepin smoke but slightly more refined. Perhaps a Jamie Garcia offering or even a new Illusione Maduro. I like this full bodied cigar. Palio Cutter Contest: The winner of the November Burl Palio cutter was Craig Rich. For December's contest, we are looking for photos of you and your friends enjoying cigars (all the better if they happen to be Esencias, but it will not affect your chances of winning).
