BONUS: Shadows Out of Asia - Shutter and the Asian Horror Boom by Travis Johnson

Podean just closed their fourth acquisition in nine months. Travis Johnson is hinting at a fifth. Mountain Gate's strategic roadmap had six puzzle pieces. Four are filled. Two more to go.This is what a PE-backed independent agency rollup looks like when it's working.Travis Johnson — CEO and co-founder of Podean, the largest independent global marketplace-focused agency — is back on In/Organic to walk through the full acquisition path: what each deal was designed to solve, how they've learned to lead with culture before due diligence, why they stopped taking cold calls and built a one-pager instead, and what's still missing from the platform.At roughly 400 people and growing toward 500, managing $600-700M in retail media spend and driving approximately $5-6B in client sales — Podean may be the most acquisitive independent agency in the US right now. And they're not done.What we cover: The rationale behind each of the four acquisitions — Commerce Canal, AdAdvance, AdMerge, and CartBloom — why Walmart is growing faster than Amazon and CartBloom fills that gap, the hard lesson of spending six months on a deal that fell apart on culture, how Mountain Gate runs the identification process while Podean runs the relationship, the one-pager filter that stops time-wasting calls before they start, and what the next acquisition is probably going to be.⏱️ TIMESTAMPS0:26 — Welcome back and a quick apology to the 2,180 YouTube subscribers1:23 — Travis Johnson reintroduction: Podean, Mountain Gate backing, four deals in nine months2:44 — Quick refresh: the four acquisitions — Commerce Canal, AdAdvance, AdMerge, CartBloom3:37 — Podean's strategic thesis: end-to-end, global, social commerce, retail management4:15 — Breaking down each acquisition: what did it add?4:43 — Commerce Canal: retail operations depth, logistics, apparel vertical, New York office5:55 — AdAdvance: media-only depth, Amazon relationships, Streamline tech platform7:30 — AdMerge: two-thirds ex-Amazon team, global footprint now 21 countries, EmergeView and Emerge Engine9:30 — CartBloom: ex-Amazon, ex-Walmart founders, specialist Walmart depth in the fastest-growing retail media platform10:32 — Deal process breakdown: three proprietary, one banker-run (AdMerge)11:20 — What's still missing: social commerce globally and AI-native tech12:14 — TikTok Shop growing globally — Ireland, Europe, US numbers keep rising12:43 — Tech consolidation: from 6 tech people to 30, building AI-native unified platform14:08 — 400+ headcount, $600-700M retail media spend, $5-6B in client sales15:35 — "Just drop Codex on the file system and tell it to fix everything"16:13 — Advice for smaller agencies: don't get distracted, run a solid business first17:00 — The hard lesson: six months on a deal that fell apart on culture fit18:02 — Lead with culture first, numbers second — the pivot that changed their process18:25 — What taking PE money actually means: "You're about to sprint faster than you've ever sprinted"19:30 — Integration is hard: HR platforms, titles, tools, ways of working all different20:04 — Mountain Gate's role: strategic roadmap session, identification, deal sourcing20:38 — Six puzzle pieces.

Hockey - Recapping the Frozen Four Starts at 0:51 We gotta talk about the hockey tournament. The fake hockey tournament. Whether they won or lost, it doesn't change anything about who this team was. Michigan played well enough to win, but one shot in nine minutes ended it. Almost every year it's not the best team that wins, it's usually Duluth or Denver. Denver is like the UConn men's basketball of hockey. There's no emotional story to apply your fandom to when it's just randomness. Denver's lack of penalties that were objectively bad no-calls just doesn't make it feel fair, especially the way they called Michigan's penalty in OT. even Alex and David think it was egregious, the players that poured their hearts into this deserve better. There is something wrong with this tournament, there would be a lot more respect for Buccigross if he would say something along those lines. There's not something wrong with Michigan, there's something wrong with the tournament. Imagine if in basketball they just stopped calling fouls in OT.  2. Hockey - Looking Ahead Starts at 27:50 Moldenhauer and Hage have announced returns. Apparently players have been informed to avoid the AHL if they can, college is a lot more enjoyable. Jack Nesbitt is the 12th overall pick and could be coming in, he's a TJ Hughes replacement. He's in the OHL playoffs and might not make a decision right away. Cameron Reid could also be coming in from the OHL, 21st overall to Nashville. Perron is the biggest one on the fence, if you get him then all your holes are plugged. JP Hurlbert is coming in regardless but he might wait a year to contribute. Nick Seaman is coming in as a 4th liner, Cooper Dennis might get deferred (and is Alex Drain sized). A lot of teams will be better next season, but Penn State had Gavin McKenna and weren't that great. Michigan State isn't missing a beat. There are a lot more, and better, options than just going to the NHL these days. They should be a pre-season top three, or maybe even top one.  3. Hot Takes and Basketball Portal Starts at 59:16 Takes hotter than the Denver Pioneers. The Red Wings need to make David Carle their head coach so they can win while being out-shot 2:1. This information might be outdated by the time you hear it! What is happening in the portal right now? Not much. Michigan gets JP Estrella out of Tennessee. He's a high efficiency but low usage player which is weird. He's a moneyball play vs getting Flory Bidunga. Otherwise there's not a lot of chatter. We're starting to expect Morez Johnson to return. Michigan needs a true rim protecting center and could probably also use a starting three. Juke Harris is worth going after but not worth the big bag, give that to the Seton Hall center, Najai Hines. Freshman Brandon McCoy went to a camp and looks like a guy you could have for 20 minutes a game. There's a trust of Dusty in the portal that the fanbase didn't have with Juwan. The Big Ten runs college basketball now. How would Beilein have done during this era?  4. Spring Game Preview Starts at 1:38:41 Spring Game is this weekend at 2pm, 12-18 starters will be sitting out. Bryce will probably play since they don't have enough quarterbacks, we better see Savion Hiter. Position groups are going to be split into balanced squads rather than have a draft, making it more like a controlled practice than a real game. In years past it was frustrating to see future NFL linemen with a walk-on running back behind them, you can't learn much from that. We expect to see a more evolved version of the offense with more quarterback runs. There is Travis Johnson buzz at wide receiver. Brian doesn't want to hear about Kendrick Bell. Hogan Hanson is generating excitement and the offensive line has intriguing positional battles. Evan Link is back and might play, Babalola is not playing yet. Whittingham is good at running the quarterback, it won't be the 2011 offense but it should be effective. The coaches apparently like the depth on the defensive line and think it's the strength of the team, which, ehhhh. Brian breaks down why this is not true. They trust Palepale. Do you prefer EDGE or ED? Linebacker depth is a concern, they don't really have anyone to back up the three main guys. The secondary should be settled in. Shamari Earls is making a move at corner. Who's at nickel now? If Rod Moore isn't on the field in the spring game then enjoy a nice coaching career. Kerry Coombs brings a lot of old guy energy and gets mic'd up a lot. Jay Hill is like the mormon kid from South Park. Don't blame us if it rains.

In this special Easter episode, Dr. Zach Clinton sits down with Pastor Travis Johnson to discuss his powerful new book (Un)Embarrassed of Jesus: Follow From a Distance and Lose Your Faith; Follow Closely and Change the World. Travis challenges the quiet tension many Christians feel today where we are close enough to say we believe in Jesus, yet distant enough to avoid the cultural backlash that can come with truly following Him. Through the powerful story of Peter’s journey from denial to bold proclamation, we explore how spiritual distance slowly erodes faith while nearness to Christ produces courage, conviction, and transformation. Travis shares why this message is so urgent for the Church today and how ordinary believers can move from comfortable cultural Christianity to courageous, world-changing faith. This conversation is a timely Easter reminder that the resurrection doesn’t just invite belief…it calls us to follow Jesus boldly and without embarrassment.

Greg visits with Travis Johnson, lead pastor of Pathway Church in Mobile, Alabama, to discuss his powerful new book (Un)Embarrassed of Jesus—a bold call for believers to stop following Christ at a distance and instead live with courage, conviction, and clarity in today's culture. Travis shares the heart behind the message, challenging Christians to move beyond comfort and cultural Christianity into a fearless, close walk with Jesus Christ—a faith that not only transforms individuals but impacts communities and nations. The conversation also takes a personal turn as Greg and Travis reflect on their shared experiences traveling together in Israel and spending time in Washington, D.C., discussing how those moments shaped their perspectives on faith, leadership, and the global Church.Travis also offers insight into his role serving on President Trump's National Faith Advisory Board, giving listeners a behind-the-scenes look at the intersection of faith and Presidential Politics.

In the message “(UN)EMBARRASSED”, Pastor Travis Johnson teaches from Hebrews 13:1–6, calling believers to a faith that is lived out openly and without shame. This passage challenges us to love consistently, show hospitality, care for those who are suffering, and live with integrity—practices that often stand out in a world that pushes self-interest and comfort.Pastor Travis highlights how embarrassment or fear of opinion can keep us from fully obeying God, yet Hebrews reminds us that our confidence is rooted in the Lord's presence, not people's approval. Because God promises to never leave or forsake us, we can live boldly, love freely, and trust Him completely.We pray this message encourages you to walk out your faith without hesitation, unashamed of the gospel, and confident that the Lord is always with you.

Michigan Hockey vs Michigan State Starts at :51 A very silly debate not worth publishing preceded the actual intro of this podcast. A split against Michigan State is a very fair result, the whole series was intense. The first period of the Saturday game was an onslaught that Michigan relatively survived, Jack Ivankovic has been solid. How many first and second rounders were in this game? The answer is in the double digits. Is the Big Ten the best hockey league in the world outside of the NHL? Most of the time this team looks dominant but looking back on that Wisconsin series and the first period against MSU on Saturday shows some concerning trends where Michigan can't get out of their own zone. Minnesota is surprisingly not what they've been in the last few years.  2. Men's Basketball vs Rutgers Starts at 26:05 Michigan is putting up demolitions not even predicted by Kenpom. If Michigan puts up a reasonable number of 3s there's just no way to beat them. What did Rutgers even do... get to 41% from 2? Well Michigan shot 72% from 2. They've played the 8th hardest schedule in the country, what even is there to say? Morez Johnson is shooting 3s now. Michigan had more offensive rebounds than misses from 2. Cadeau had an alarming turnover rate earlier in the season and most of those have gone away. Is Yaxel the alpha guy for scoring? Do you need one when you win games by 40? Roddy Gayle is rounding into the guy we originally thought he would be. The floor on this team is so high, if they shot 15% from 3 they'd probably still win by 10. The only teams that look mildly threatening on the schedule are Michigan State and Purdue. USC is also spicier than we thought. Michigan is now favored in every single game on the schedule.  3. Hot Takes, Football Offensive Recruiting Class Starts at 54:31 Takes hotter than Curt Cignetti walking off the field after beating Ohio State 13-10 to win the Big Ten Championship and reacting in NO WAY WHATSOEVER. Savion Hiter is the number one running back in the country and he has the tape to back it up. Brady Smigiel and Tommy Carr come in at QB, they won't see the field for a while but then you could have a redshirt sophomore starting after Bryce leaves. It's nice to see Michigan recruit like they have 105 guys in a class. Michigan loses a wide receiver but picks up Travis Johnson, also Brady Marchese and Jaylen Pile. Would've been nice to get a slot guy but nice to get a few receivers. They're all early enrolees. Matt Ludwig comes in at tight end and is the number one player in Montana, close enough to Idaho. Michigan should get tight ends from American Samoa and Alaska. Mason Bonner comes in from Colorado, keep an eye on him down the road. Malakai Lee is the headlining offensive lineman out of Hawaii, Bear McWhorter is an all-name nominee. Marky Walbridge is a quintessential under-scouted player.  4. Football Defensive Recruiting Class Starts at 1:20:32 Carter Meadows is the #6 overall player in the class, he could be the first overall player in the draft if he projects how he's supposed to. Taco Charlton comparison? Tariq Boney is the other edge, described as a violent high motor style. Titan Davis is Chris Wormley shaped but could move to defensive tackle, McHale Blade might be the most underrated guy in this class. Alister Vallejo, the Mason Graham comparison! He's a lot of peoples' favorite player in this class (a class with two five stars). Could he help next year? Many linebackers, mostly flyers and not an instant-impact class. Do not trust AI in your recruiting history research. The defensive back class is a little light, all four stars though. Jordan Deck is a Makari Paige kind of guy. They get a kicker who kicks and a longsnapper who long snaps, yay. Kerry Coombs comes in as special team coordinator.  MUSIC: "Train Love"—Yor Old Droog "MAGIC"—Vince Staples and Mustard "I Need a Lover"—John Couger “Across 110th Street”—JJ Johnson and his Orchestra   

On this week's edition of The Michigan Recruiting Insider, Sam Webb, Steve Lorenz, and Brice Marich recap Michigan's 2026 recruiting class. They discuss the delay in Savion Hiter's signing. The crew explains how contract revisions caused chaos on signing day and slowed the overall process of getting the class signed. Steve praises the offensive line class of Marky Walbridge, Malakai Lee, and Bear McWhorter. The entire crew discusses the talent and possible early impact of the class's top overall recruit, five-star edge Carter Meadows. Sam explains the staff's successful effort to protect wideout Travis Johnson's commitment. He highlights the complementary role that Brady Marchese will play in the receiver and special teams rooms. The episode concludes with a look ahead to portal priorities, potential coaching moves, next year's lineup projections, and more.

FOOTBALL v OHIO STATE Offense had some neat ideas in the run game, not so much the passing game. Problem with not running read options all year is Bryce blew too many of them. Sherrone is a run guy, had some great run tweaks, but it ended up costing them in the passing game as Bryce was cold—gotta throw on early downs if you're going to be a successful passing team. Defensively it was worse when we looked. "Only 27 points" is because they only had nine possessions and one of the killed the game in the 3rd and 4th quarter. Wink: Not great. Felt mailed in, no interesting ideas, and the ideas he did have were bad ones, like delayed blitzes that won't get to Sayin until it's too late, or showing his hand. Sayin was never confused: he read out what he planned to. Sam not a fan of spot-dropping. That was most of the defense this game; in the past Michigan's used a lot more switch and poach coverages. Wink is too easy to see coming, and that's not going to change. We're ready to move on, hope he is as well. Differences aren't all on Wink: Ernest Hausmann was a big loss, and a big difference last year. Josiah Stewart was and The Gifts were a big deal last year. Getting off the field on 3rd & 3 is when those playmakers have to do something, and Michigan didn't have those guys. SIGNING DAY Got interesting yesterday. Big money plays at Zion Robinson, Travis Johnson and (from UNC) Julian Walker. Michigan is either getting Zion Robinson (who got a big offer from Syracuse) or Georgia commit Brady Marchese—if Calvin Russell is serious then they'll work that out separately. Julian Walker is deciding today; his connection to Michigan in the first place was his dad, isn't sure he wants to leave home, which is understandable. If he goes to UNC it's just money. Hiter was just a misunderstanding when his contract came and they got it cleared up eventually. Underrated guys in the class: Alister Vallejo (we love), McHale Blade (fell too far after his injury) and Tommy Carr (we think he's better than Brady Smigiel, not better than Bourque).

The Michigan Football family grew in a big way, as the program signed 27 incoming freshmen on National Signing Day. On this special edition of In the Trenches, presented by Meijer, Head Coach Sherrone Moore breaks down this strong class and provides thoughts on each of the new Wolverines.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Today we have a special double episode of From the Pasture with Hired Hand. We talk with Travis Johnson from in the sunny panhandle of Florida where he started raising Texas Longhorns a few years ago at his ranch, LTJ Longhorns. In the first episode, Travis shares how some long grass turned into an introduction to Terry King, purchasing his first longhorns & traveling to over a dozen sales &/or futurities in the first year. From there, he has grown his herd to 50+ head. The advice that has been given to him the most and the advice he would give other new breeders is to be patient; patience is the key to growing a good herd you'll be proud of.  Not only did Travis jump in feet first to the Longhorn breed, he also joined SETLA (Southeast Texas Longhorn Association), the area TLBAA affiliate. In the second part of today's episode, he shares how he became involved in SETLA and the importance & benefits of being an involved member in your area longhorn affiliate. Travis is passionate about the herd, the SETLA organization and grateful for the mentoring he has received from Jimmy Jones, Terry King and many others. Fun fact, he's also passionate about little dessert cakes and nutter butters.
