Was Julie Wainwright a visionary CEO caught in impossible circumstances, or did she preside over one of the most spectacularly stupid business models in internet history? In this episode of History's Greatest Idiots, we explore the woman who sold dog food for one-third of what it cost, shipped it for free, spent $1.2 million on a Super Bowl ad, and somehow convinced Jeff Bezos this was a good idea.This is the story of Pets.com: the company that proved you could lose $300 million in under two years if you really applied yourself, and the sock puppet mascot that became more famous than the company it represented.What You'll Discover:How a Purdue graduate went from early career struggles to running multiple successful tech companiesWhy selling heavy pet supplies at massive discounts with free shipping is financial suicideThe massive marketing campaign that created an iconic sock puppetHow 14 dot-com companies spent an average of $2.2 million each for Super Bowl ads in January 2000Why customer acquisition costs became unsustainable when selling low-margin pet productsThe 268-day journey from $11 IPO to $0.19 liquidation (one of the shortest-lived public companies ever)How Julie's husband filed for divorce the day before she announced the shutdownThe brutal aftermath: being called "the biggest failure in Silicon Valley"Her incredible comeback with The RealReal (from pariah to billion-dollar IPO)Why we're repeating the exact same mistakes with AI companies right nowFrom Super Bowl Glory to Liquidation: Pets.com raised $82.5 million, had Amazon as a 54% investor, appeared in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, and became a cultural phenomenon. But behind the famous sock puppet was a company losing money on every single sale, spending $11.8 million on advertising while earning $619,000 in revenue, and operating on the bold strategy of "lose money on every transaction and make it up in volume."The Dot-Com Bubble Context: We explore how an entire generation of investors lost their minds, why "get large or get lost" became the mantra, and how $5-7 trillion in market value vanished when everyone realized that businesses actually need to make money. Plus: why Webvan, Boo.com, eToys, and Kozmo.com all failed for the exact same reasons.The AI Parallel That Should Terrify You: We're living through this again right now. AI companies raising billions on potential rather than profitability, the same "this time it's different" thinking, identical infrastructure challenges, and investors throwing money at anything with "AI" in the pitch deck. History doesn't repeat, but it rhymes like a sock puppet singing Chicago.Julie Wainwright's story proves that failure isn't fatal, being ahead of your time is often indistinguishable from being completely wrong, and sometimes the universe just needs you to burn $300 million to teach everyone a lesson they'll immediately forget.⁠⁠⁠https://www.patreon.com/HistorysGreatestIdiots⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/historysgreatestidiots⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://buymeacoffee.com/historysgreatestidiots⁠⁠Artist: Sarah Chey⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.fiverr.com/sarahchey⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Animation: Daniel Wilson⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/wilson_the_wilson/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Music: Andrew Wilson⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/andrews_electric_sheep⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

Krisy Thomas, COO of the Certified Wedding Planner Society, is joined by two remarkable Certified Wedding Planners, Vicki Amar and Ashley Babbitt, to share their transformative journeys in the wedding industry. This captivating conversation highlights the power of education, certification, and community in shaping a successful career.Vicki Amar brings a fascinating perspective, having coordinated iconic New York City events like the Times Square New Year's Eve Ball Drop and Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade before transitioning to wedding planning. Despite her extensive event experience, Vicki recognized that wedding planning required specialized knowledge—a realization that led her to pursue certification and take the leap into full-time entrepreneurship.Ashley Babbitt offers a complementary journey, having strategically pursued certification while still in college. This approach gave her the confidence to pursue shadowing opportunities even during the challenges of the COVID period. Now a lead planner in Orlando, Ashley continues to advocate for education and mentorship, particularly for students entering the wedding industry.Both planners emphasize that certification provides more than just credentials, it offers ongoing education through weekly workshops, access to a supportive professional community, and the confidence to deliver exceptional service. Their stories highlight how the CWP Society transforms perspectives from competition to collaboration, creating networks of mutual support that benefit both planners and clients.This episode is packed with insights on professional growth, the value of specialized education, and how a community-centered approach is revolutionizing the wedding planning industry. Whether you're starting out or looking to elevate your career, Vicki and Ashley's journeys demonstrate that certification can be the catalyst for meaningful professional transformation.Ready to elevate your wedding planning career?

This episode is packed with hustle, heart, and plenty of inspiration.Key Takeaways:Think Beyond the Truck: Starting as a burger truck, Kyle's team expanded by listening to customer needs and launching new food brands to meet them.Pandemic Pivot Power: BLT Kitchens was born during lockdown and turned into an incubator helping nearly 400 foodpreneurs scale.Partnerships Need Boundaries: Clear roles, regular check-ins, and honest conversations are essential when co-founding with friends.Prepaid Catering = Low Risk, High Reward: Avoiding festivals and betting on guaranteed catering gigs helped reduce risk and scale fast.Big Dreams, Smart Moves: From Walmart ambitions to family traditions at the Thanksgiving Day Parade, Kyle blends hustle with heart.

What is Thanksgiving without the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade? The annual march through Manhattan -- terminating at Macy's Department Store -- has delighted New Yorkers for a century and been a part of the American tradition of Thanksgiving since it was first broadcast nationally on television in the 1950s.Macy's began the parade in 1924 as a way to promote the new Seventh Avenue extension of their Herald Square location -- and to overshadow its department store rival Gimbel's. That first parade had many of the hallmarks of our modern parade -- from floats to Santa Claus - however it was much longer. Six miles!One major tradition is thankfully gone -- releasing the parade balloons into the air and encouraging New Yorkers to chase after them. After one near disaster in 1932 (airplane, meet balloon zebra) this curious contest was discontinued.By the late 1930s, the real world began seeping into the fairy-tale parade route, and during World War II, the parade was cancelled entirely -- a prohibition kicked off in a rather violent balloon deflation ceremony led by Mayor Fiorello La Guardia.Television would change the parade -- and the holiday -- forever. With NBC broadcasting starting in the 1950s, people could tune in from across the country, creating more opportunities to promote .... everything!By the 1970s, the parade was a festival of commercialism, a beloved kitsch-fest featuring lip-syncing vocalists, ever larger balloons, morning show hosts and product placements embedded within other product placements.But harsh winds and cold could be detrimental to the balloons and, sometimes, to the bystanders. Why will you never see a Cat In The Hat balloon in the parade again?FEATURING: A cast of B and C list celebrities, thousands of out-of-town marching bands and a few favorite balloons (Snoopy, Underdog, the Tin Man and more)Visit the website for pictures and other information about the paradeRead Greg's extensive article on the New York City connections of the film Miracle on 34th Street

The 166-year-old chain, which is fighting extinction, calls the parade its “gift to the nation.” With 30 million TV viewers, it's also a big moneymaker. At least we think it is — Macy's is famously tight-lipped about parade economics. We try to loosen them up.
