In 2024, at the height of Israel's US-backed genocide of Palestinians in Gaza, one of the most widespread waves of college campus protests since the Vietnam War exploded across the United States. Then came the repressive backlash. Over the past two years, we've seen a harrowing assault on free speech and the right to protest from the federal government and Zionist organizations, and universities themselves have ramped up their own internal surveillance and repression machines, weaponizing them against their own students, grad students, and faculty.Life, learning, and activism on American college campuses looks very different today than it did in 2024, but the student-led Palestine solidarity movement is not going away. As a new school year begins, we speak with four students at different college campuses across the University System of Maryland (USM), who are all organizers and members of the USM Divestment Coalition for Palestine, about how the movement is maintaining its demands and adapting its tactics in 2026.Additional links/info:USM DIvestment Coalition for Palestine website, Instagram, and LinktreeDiamondback Staff, The Diamondback, “USM students call for divestment from defense companies at Board of Regents meeting”Credits:Audio Post-Production: Alina NehlichBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-real-news-podcast--2952221/support.Help us continue producing radically independent news and in-depth analysis by following us and becoming a monthly sustainer.Follow us on:Bluesky: @therealnews.comFacebook: The Real News NetworkTwitter: @TheRealNewsYouTube: @therealnewsInstagram: @therealnewsnetworkBecome a member and join the Supporters Club for The Real News Podcast today!

Now Chairman of Literacy Capital plc (LSE: BOOK), the listed private equity investment trust he co-founded with his son Richard, Paul joins Jeremy to share the lessons of a remarkable career in UK plc — and a very different second act.Paul explains how Capita rode the wave of government outsourcing in the 1990s and 2000s, why culture and cheap, disciplined M&A drove 25 consecutive years of record results, and what changed after he left in 2014. He gives a candid assessment of UK corporate governance — 300-page board packs, six-hour board meetings — and why London's shrinking stock market is a "real shame for the UK economy."On Literacy Capital, Paul opens up about the trust's unusual model: permanent capital, no carried interest, no performance fee, and nearly 40% founder ownership — plus £13 million donated to the Bookmark Reading charity, which tackles child literacy. He addresses the elephant in the room head-on: a NAV near all-time highs but a share price discount at its widest ever, the impact of the Budget and employers' NI rises on small UK businesses, and why exits at 10x, 10x and 15x money suggest the portfolio is conservatively valued at 9.2x EBITDA.Whether you invest in investment trusts, private equity, UK small caps, or simply want a masterclass in building businesses, this conversation delivers.In This EpisodeFrom Coopers & Lybrand and 3i to the £330,000 buyout of CIPFA Computer Services — the business that became CapitaListing on the USM in 1989 at an £8m market cap — and winning a £13m contract with £2.6m of turnoverVisionary or lucky? Management, market tailwinds, and the 10 Golden Rules behind a 480x shareholder returnCapita's M&A playbook: high volume, small deals, never overpayWhat went wrong at Capita — and in UK outsourcing — after 2014Why 200-page annual reports and six-hour board meetings destroy value rather than protect itThe origin of Literacy Capital: a husband-and-wife conversation and a mission to teach every child to readBookmark Reading charity: £13m donated, half a million children to be helpedInside the LitCap model: permanent capital, zero carry, and total alignmentFive exits at 10x, 10x, 15x, 5.2x and 2.5x moneyThe discount debate: NAV vs share price, CGT speculation, and the cost of neglecting investor relationsHow the Budget and employers' NI hit small UK businessesWhy good £100m companies can no longer IPO in LondonWorking with family: father and son at the helmAdvice for the new Prime Minister: debt, the triple lock, stamp duty, and CGTGuestPaul Pindar is Chairman and co-founder of Literacy Capital plc (LSE: BOOK), a listed closed-end investment fund backing small UK businesses. He joined Capita as CFO in 1987 — eight months after backing its buyout as an investor at 3i — became Managing Director 18 months later, and led the business until 2014, growing it into one of the UK's largest outsourcing companies with 62,000 employees and a £7.5bn market cap. He co-founded Literacy Capital in 2018 with his son Richard; the fund donates a portion of net assets each year to Bookmark Reading, the child literacy charity founded by his wife, Sharon Pindar.KeywordsPaul Pindar, Literacy Capital, LSE BOOK, Capita, UK outsourcing, private equity, investment trust, listed private equity, closed-end fund, permanent capital, carried interest, NAV discount, UK small caps, management buyout, London Stock Exchange, IPO drought, Bookmark Reading, child literacy, shareholder value, M&A strategy, founder succession, UK stock market, corporate governance, capital gains tax, employers' national insuranceThis podcast explores stocks, markets, and capital, examines the role of gold in finance, unpacks tax policy and economics, discusses pathways to financial freedom and retirement, explains how interest rates affect investing, features insights from financial advisers, analyzes inflation, recession, and market volatility, covers the actions of central banks, evaluates different assets, addresses inheritance planning, reviews portfolio construction with bonds and an isa, assesses long-term returns and allocation strategies, explores macro trends, and helps listeners understand risk and pensions.
**Episode #1260 – The Clay Edwards Show with Creston Berch** Clay Edwards is live on 103.9 WYAB with special guest Creston Berch, a 30-year retired police officer from Clinton, Mississippi. This episode digs into the continuing fallout from the Nolan Wells case—context around the Cajun Navy's statements, Ben Crump's claims, and why “fully clothed” suddenly became a flashpoint. Creston joins Clay for straight talk on use of force, what it actually takes to stop a threat, and the realities officers face. The conversation expands into race, accountability, and culture: the difference between being called a racist versus other slurs, claims of systemic racism in 2026, fatherless homes, black-on-black crime, the strained relationship between certain communities and law enforcement, and why broken-windows policing and real accountability matter. A thoughtful listener call pushes the discussion further on disparities, redlining history, personal responsibility, and what “justice” actually looks like. Also covered: Jasmine Crockett race-baiting the World Cup final without knowing the teams' demographics, Carlos Moore's call for Mississippi State, USM, and Ole Miss players to boycott the season until “justice” for Nolan Wells, compartmentalizing artists from their personal lives (Michael Jackson documentary, Motley Crüe, etc.), and the practical challenges of policing high-crime areas like Jackson—why good officers hesitate and what happens when departments go from call to call instead of proactive work. Stream the full episode and catch the bonus break conversations on the Mazda Jackson livestream (SaveJXN on YouTube/X, Clay Edwards Show on Rumble, Twitch & Facebook). Real talk. No sacred cows. Accountability over excuses.
While many astrologers dream of being on television, Edward O stumbled into the spotlight while trying to get his brother — a doctor, newly arrived in the US — airtime on local TV stations.Over the next few years he'd take on one TV astrology role after another, working a series of day jobs and spending his nights poring over astrology books at the famed Bodhi Tree Bookstore in West Hollywood.In 2005 all that reading found an international audience: he was hired as cohost and astrologer for 12 Corazones, Telemundo's astrological dating show. For a decade he was on a mission to show the world astrology is about more than sun signs — pulling, by his own estimate, some 41,000 charts along the way and creating a signature style of reading that expanded beyond astrology to include palmistry and graphology.I knew none of this until Edward O reached out to me after attending the LA Astro Fest Kick-Off party.Fate works in mysterious ways indeed.Edward O recently joined me to TALKTALKTALK an astrological life well lived, where we explore all sorts of terrain — ghosts, ancestry, relationship astrology, Shakira and the Royal Family.

Born in Managua, he emigrated to Glendale at twelve and came to astrology sideways — working in the medical field by day, haunting the astrology section of the Bodhi Tree by night, with the rest of his education supplied by dating and long-term relationships. He studied with Zip Dobyns and Marion March and spent time at the Philosophical Research Society, and holds a BA in Latin American Studies, an MA in Spiritual Psychology from USM, and a clinical hypnotherapy certification from HMI. His television career spans four decades, beginning with an astrotherapy segment he pitched to a morning news program and expanding to networks across the U.S. and abroad. For ten years he co-hosted Telemundo's 12 Corazones, casting roughly 41,000 quick charts and teaching a mass audience to care about the ascendant, Moon, Venus, and Mars.Follow him on IG at @Edward_o_astrocoachAbout ViviVivi Henriette is an LA-based astrologer and tarot reader whose practice centers on storytelling, mythology, and collaborative divination.

Juana Rozas es de esas artistas que parecen estar jugando a otra cosa. Con TANYA (2025) y TANYA EN EL CRUCERO (2026) construyó un personaje delirante, histriónico e hipnótico. Su obra cruza música, concepto y performance sin que nunca termine de quedar claro dónde empieza una cosa y termina la otra. Después de fascinarnos con esos dos discos, sentimos que no quedaba otra que invitarla a USM para preguntarle de todo. Charlamos sobre cómo nació Tanya, por qué decidió escribir desde un personaje, qué cosas tienen de ella esas canciones, cómo fue expandiendo ese universo entre un disco y el otro y de qué manera piensa llevar el nuevo EP al vivo.

“Jo,” směje se, “o život mi už párkrát šlo.” Usmívá se i při větě: “Jako writer jsem šel z podmínky do podmínky.” A smích ho nepřejde, ani když vypráví o šíleném zážitku z poslední doby: “V Kanadě mi našli kufr trávy, hulil bych to půlku života. Původní obvinění bylo z pašeráctví a pokusu o vývoz ze země, nakonec jsem si odseděl rok.”https://reportermagazin.cz/

Host/Producer: Amy Browne Following up on yesterday’s report, today organizers of The Consequence of Palestine- (Maine Coalition for Palestine, www.mvprights.org/ -weigh in on the controversy in a press release. Resources included with the press release: “[E]stablished case law pertaining to nearly identical conferences and academic events” provided by organizers “Trump Administration Concedes U.S. Researchers may Talk with Francesca Albanese, Special Rapporteur on Palestine, Despite Sanctions” – “The First Amendment generally forecloses the government from using its sanctions authority to suppress the exchange of ideas—and it certainly prohibits the government from preventing scholars from engaging with one of the foremost experts in their field,” says Xiangnong (George) Wang, staff attorney at the Knight First Amendment Institute. “The Treasury Department's concession is a significant reprieve to the many American scholars, journalists, and advocates that have been chilled from exercising their rights because they fear liability under U.S. sanctions laws.” “OFAC SIGNALS POLICY CHANGE ON HOLDING CONFERENCES WITH SANCTIONED SPEAKERS” – “Marking what appears to be a reversal of previous policy, the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) determined that US persons can, subject to certain limitations, include sanctioned persons as speakers at overseas conferences without specific authorization.” “The authority granted to the president of the United States under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) does not authorize the regulation or prohibition of most types of communication that do not involve the transfer of anything of value (50 USC § 1702(b)(1)). The Berman Amendment, added to IEEPA in 1988, stipulates that the president cannot regulate or ban the import or export of “informational materials” to or from adversarial nations or individuals.” “By reversing its stance in the GPE case, and by issuing the letter as part of the public record in the court proceedings, OFAC appears content to publicly clarify and refine its position on this issue: allowing sanctioned individuals to speak at events organized by US citizens is not a service so long as no financial transactions or other exchanges of benefits take place” Letter to Middle East Studies Association from OFAC Media Advisory – The Consequence of Palestine, February 16 Support for Francesca Albanese, UN Special Rapporteur for the Occupied Palestinian Territories: 30 Jewish Organizations: We Support UN Human Rights Rapporteur Francesca Albanese, Independent Jewish Voices, Canada, November 5, 2024 “Jewish Voice for Peace strongly condemns the Trump administration's announcement of sanctions against UN Special Rapporteur on the Occupied Palestinian Territory, Francesca Albanese. This is a blatantly political attack that seeks to silence Palestinian rights advocates and undermine international law”, social media post “Impunity will end: Francesca Albanese keeps hopeful”, Jewish Voice for Liberation, Wed 28 Jan 2026 Links from Part 1 (aired 2/25/26): “The Consequence of Palestine” Conference Coming to USM, Munjoy Hill News, Portland, 18 February 2026 (NOTE: CANCELLED) Press Statement, US Imposing Sanctions on Francesca Albanese, the United Nations Human Rights Council Special Rapporteur on the Situation of Human Rights in the Palestinian Territories Occupied since 1967, Marco Rubio, Secretary of State, 9 July 2025 Report: “Gaza Genocide: a collective crime” by the Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the Palestinian territories occupied since 1967, United Nations Francesca Albanese, United Nations Special Rapporteur on the occupied Palestinian territories Global: European states must retract outrageous attacks on UN Special Rapporteur Francesca Albanese, Amnesty International, 13 Feb 2026 They tried to silence her – they failed, Jewish Voice for Liberation, 23 Feb 2025 About the host: Amy Browne started out at WERU as a volunteer news & public affairs producer in 2000, co-hosting/co-producing RadioActive with Meredith DeFrancesco.

This is episode #1,055 of the Clay Edwards Show on WYAB. Folks, let's dive right into the madness that's got me fired up this morning—starting with this cold-blooded murder in Charlotte, North Carolina, that the media's burying like it's yesterday's trash. A black thug named Decarlos Brown Jr. pulls out a knife and stabs an innocent white woman, Iryna Zarutska—a 23-year-old Ukrainian refugee just scrolling on her phone with her back turned—three times in the neck on a light rail train. She bleeds out right there, all caught on video, and he's charged with first-degree murder. You might wanna pretend race doesn't matter, but trust me, race sees you and hates you with a passion. Now, flip the script: if a white guy did this to a black woman, it'd be nonstop headlines, riots in the streets, cities burning, and every talking head screaming systemic racism. But here? Barely a whisper from national or local outlets—they're too busy ignoring it because it doesn't fit their agenda. Double standards much? And hey, on a lighter note for all you gym rats out there—did you know that if you can bench press 225 pounds just once, you're in the top 0.5% of all men in America? That's right, most guys couldn't even dream of it. Props if you're one of the elite—keep grinding! Speaking of viral insanity, everyone's buzzing about that "Phillies Karen" from the MLB game over the weekend. You know the one: this entitled nightmare demands a home run ball that a dad caught fair and square for his kid's birthday, bullies him into handing it over, leaves the boy in tears, and the whole stadium turns on her with boos and middle fingers. Video's everywhere, blowing up online, and now the debate's raging—should she get canceled into oblivion or what? Absolute clown show. Finally, wrapping this up with some college football drama that reeks of setup. Last week, a Facebook post pops up in a USM fan group—University of Southern Mississippi—laying out a bunch of ridiculous, racist "rules and demands" for JSU—Jackson State University—fans coming to town for the game this past weekend. Stuff like how to behave, straight out of some bigoted playbook. It blows up, forces both schools' presidents to issue statements, with USM groveling in apology to JSU fans. But come on, folks, I call 100% BS on this—it's gotta be a hate hoax cooked up by JSU fans themselves to stir up racial tension and drama right before kickoff. You'll never convince me otherwise; these stunts are straight from the playbook of division. Wake up to the games being played!
Hace un tiempo que notamos una revitalización de la cumbia como música popular y masiva argentina. Más allá de sus múltiples variantes y sonoridades, gracias a algunas de las características esenciales del género, como movida -antes llamada- "tropical" en general. Este es un episodio clásico de USM, a pura charla musiquera, en donde trataremos de explicar, pensar y entender algunas de las causas de esta nueva ola del movimiento cultural cumbiero. Ah, sí. Ya no hablamos solo de música. Como pasó con otros como el hip hop o el rock, la cumbia abarca mucho más que la rítmica, melodía, letra y armonía: fiestas, banderas, aguante, amistad, artes visuales, solidaridad, respeto y más.

Early in morning of Monday, August 29, 2005, Hurricane Katrina made landfall near the Louisiana / Mississippi state line and the eyewall passed over the cities of Bay St. Louis and Waveland as a Category 3 hurricane. A 27 foot storm surge with sustained winds of 120 mph made for a devastating one-two punch that rocked even the most storm-hardened shelters and wiped away 90% of all structures within six miles of the beach. Joining us for the interview today we have Dr. David Holt, Associate Professor of Geography in the School of Biological, Environmental and Earth Sciences and coordinator of the Sustainability Sciences BS program at USM, and Dr. Deanne Stephens, Co-Director of the Center for the Study of the Gulf South at USM. To their expertise, we add the raw accounts of city officials, firemen, nurses, and everyday people who share their stories of survival and tragedy during those harrowing hours when life and death hung in the balance. Hosted by Bill Ellison Produced by Ross Walton Executive Producer Dr. Kevin Greene. Written by Ross Walton, Isabel Loya, Jerra Runnels, Andrew Leib, and Holli Parker. Additional interviews were conducted by Isabel Loya, Jerra Runnels and Andrew Leib. Special thanks to the Center for the Study of the National Guard and the Mississippi Humanities Council.
On the afternoon of Friday, August 26, 2005, the National Hurricane Center changed the predicted landfall of Katrina from the panhandle of Florida to Mississippi. As the storm continued to increase in size and intensity, Federal, State, and local officials, began planning for the worst case scenario. For Gulf Coast residents, it was a familiar dilemma: to stay or to go? Boarding up homes and businesses, packing up and heading north was a costly effort that too many times, proved unnecessary. Afterall, it had been some 36 years since Hurricane Camile, the yardstick by which all hurricanes were measured, had devastated the Gulf Coast. What were the odds that Katrina could cause that level of destruction? In our first episode, we look back on the days leading up to Hurricane Katrina. We examine the choices that were made and why. We hear first-hand accounts by key decision makers of the Mississippi Army National Guard including Major General Harold "Hac" Cross, Major General Bobbie Ginn, and Major General Janson "Durr" Boyles. We also hear from Dr. David Holt, Associate Professor of Geography in the School of Coastal Resilience at USM, and Dr. Deanne Stephens, Co-Director of the Center for the Study of the Gulf South at USM. To these voices, we add the stories of Mississippians from all walks of life, recorded shortly after the storm. From these raw accounts of survival and resiliency, we will hopefully gain a deeper perspective of how they prepared to meet the moment that fateful weekend in August of 2005. Hosted by Bill Ellison Produced by Ross Walton Executive Producer Dr. Kevin Greene. Written by Ross Walton, Isabel Loya, Jerra Runnels, Andrew Leib, and Holli Parker. Additional interviews were conducted by Isabel Loya, Jerra Runnels and Andrew Leib. Special thanks to the Center for the Study of the National Guard and the Mississippi Humanities Council.
On August 25th, 2005, Hurricane Katrina crossed over South Florida and into the Gulf, where it quickly strengthened into a massive category 5 storm. Gulf Coast residents watched with increasing alarm as it became obvious that Mississippi was in the crosshairs of this once-in-a-generation weather event. As President George W. Bush declared a state of emergency and evacuations were ordered for New Orleans and the Mississippi Gulf Coast, emergency crews, equipment, and supplies, were prepositioned for the rescue and recovery efforts that would follow. Key to those efforts would be the Mississippi National Guard. Already stretched thin due to deployments in Iraq and Afghanistan, Adjutant General Harrold "Hac" Cross knew we would need assistance from other states to meet the moment. When the storm made landfall near the Louisiana-Mississippi state line early on the morning of August 29, those who were unable or unwilling to evacuate experienced sustained winds of 120 miles per hour and a 27 foot wall of water. Many clung to trees or floating debris, desperate to survive. By the time Hurricane Katrina left Mississippi, no part of the state was left untouched. All 82 counties were declared disaster areas. On the Gulf Coast, some 90% of the buildings within a half mile of the shoreline were wiped away, leaving 238 people dead, 67 missing, and billions of dollars in damages. As massive as the storm itself was the rescue and recovery efforts. Relief agencies and philanthropic groups from around the world descended on Mississippi with truckloads of food, water, and other desperately need supplies. Rescue and relief would take weeks, recovery efforts would take years. Even before the power was fully restored, the Center for Oral History and Cultural Heritage at the University of Southern Mississippi began planning for an oral history project to preserve for future generations, the shared impact of what our people had just experienced. Over the next five years, the Center would collect some 400-plus interviews to be used for museum exhibits, presentations, books, radio programs, and even a stage play. In this four-episode podcast series, produced by the Center for Oral History and Cultural Heritage, and the Center for the Study of the National Guard at USM, with support from the Mississippi Humanities Council, we will mine that collection for stories of survival and resilience. To those stories we will add new interviews with key decision-makers and scholars to gain some new perspectives on the lasting legacy of Hurricane Katrina. I'm your host Bill Ellison, inviting you to take this journey with me as we witness the ferocity of nature and the resilience of our citizens.

Hidden among the pages of Maine's queer history lies an extraordinary treasure most people don't know exists: 43 different LGBTQ+ newspapers and newsletters dating from 1974 to 2016, all preserved and digitized at the University of Southern Maine. As Megan Mac Gregor reveals in this intimate Pride Month conversation, these publications weren't just news sources—they were community lifelines when mainstream media either ignored queer existence or reduced it to harmful stereotypes.Journey with us through decades of underground publications that range from radical activist newsletters to mainstream-style newspapers complete with event calendars and classified ads. Discover how the very first issue of the Maine Gay Task Force newsletter launched with a call to action against negative media portrayals, showing how queer media has always been intrinsically tied to activism and resistance.The story of the Wildstein Club at UMaine Orono offers a powerful window into student activism of the 1970s. As Maine's first university LGBTQ+ student group, they faced significant opposition yet persevered to organize the first Maine Gay Symposium—an event expected to draw 100 people that ultimately attracted 300. Through media controversies, legal challenges, and societal pushback, these young activists created enduring spaces for authentic representation.Perhaps most moving is Howard Brown's reflection when speaking to these student activists: "They fight not for themselves, but for those coming to UMO in the future who will know pride, not shame. My generation knew only the shame and not the pride." This generational perspective reminds us how each wave of activism builds upon the last, allowing the next generation to dream bigger and reach higher.The digitization of this historical collection preserves voices that might otherwise be lost to time. Dive into these archives to explore a rich tapestry of community-building, resistance, and self-determination that continues to shape Maine's LGBTQ+ community today. And if you're in Maine, come meet us at Brunswick Pride (June 14th) or Portland Pride (June 21st) to learn more about preserving these vital stories for future generations.The collection is accessible to anyone in the public, we often get the question of 'is it only for USM students?' and the answer is a resounding no! It is for everyone! You can learn more and explore the digitized materials here.Enjoying this content? Text us your thoughts!

We are finally back. We recap a great Wednesday of Bulldog sports, as women's basketball puts together a ridiculous second half against Missouri in the SEC Tournament and baseball run-rules USM in Starkville.

Presented by Pip Printing and Maroon & Company - Bulldogs drops to 8-9 in SEC play with tough home loss to Texas; Baseball takes on USM at Dudy Noble.
The inevitability of change is something we can either fear or embrace with insatiable curiosity, and one of them, of course, yields far better results than the other. Today's guest is a serial entrepreneur and self-described "forever intern" who co-founded Basic.Space, which later acquired Design Miami, where he now serves as chairman. Up next is Design.Space, a project that explores the power of quality curation within an IRL/URL retail experience while bringing together the worlds of design, art, and fashion. In a culture where the concept of community has been co-opted by big business and marketing teams, Jesse Lee shares a different approach that, for this conversation, we'll call a club. Whether or not you're familiar with the burgeoning world of design and its evolving role in communicating status the way a highly coveted watch or luxury fashion once did, Jesse's mindset is one to emulate. His perspective is especially valuable for those seeking their own point of convergence where passion and purpose meet in a way that is both meaningful and profitable. "It's not just about the work ethic, but also about wanting to learn. If it wasn't for that mindset, I don't think I'd be able to learn from music, fashion, technology, art, design, culinary—whatever it is. That's sort of been the mantra since day one." - Jesse Lee Design.Space will showcase a curated selection of archival and contemporary pieces from top artists, designers, galleries, and brands, including: Alexander May, AMEN, Archived, Avery Wheless, Brett Robinson, Brian Thoreen, Cadogan Tate, David Kelley, Enorme, Ettore Sottsass, Found Objects, George Davies, GUFRAM, Guido, Jahlil Nzinga, Jean Pigozzi, Jeffrey Deitch, Jess Hannah, Jeaux de Peau by Purienne, Justin Reed, Keiko Moriuchi, Laura Sattin, Leyla Fisher, Lily Clark, Marcin Rusak, Marquel Williams, Marta, Max Lamb, Memphis, Meritalia, Michelle Jane Lee, niceworkshop, Nick Thomm, Nike, NM3, NO GA, Paulin Paulin Paulin, Period Correct, Puck, Raiffe Glass, Roham Shamekh, Sabine Marcelis, Sam Klemick, Same Old/BASA Vintage, Sasha December, Spaceless Gallery, Stephanie Ketty, Stickymonger, Studio Ker, The Future Perfect, The Pink Lemonade, Tokio., Tristan Marsh, Tsu Lange Yor, USM, Verre d'Onge, Wexler Gallery, Willo Perron, Yung Jake & more to be announced soon. Episode Highlights: Jesse Lee's Journey from Intern to Industry Leader – How his relentless curiosity and willingness to do any job led to his success in music, fashion, and design. The Birth of Basic.Space – Why Jesse created Basic.Space as a curated platform for creatives, and how it evolved into an ecosystem connecting sellers, collectors, and brands. The Acquisition of Design Miami – The strategic move behind Basic.Space acquiring Design Miami, and how the two entities complement each other. The Concept Behind Design.Space – How Jesse is bridging digital and physical retail by creating a hybrid shopping experience that blends the best of Basic.Space and Design Miami. The Shift from Fashion to Design – Why luxury consumers are now more interested in furniture, objects, and design than traditional status-driven fashion. The Strategy Behind Invitation-Only Shopping – Why Basic.Space is moving to a membership-based model and limiting access to its most engaged customers. Curation as the Key to Modern Luxury – How brands and platforms must focus on thoughtful selection rather than mass availability to stay relevant. The Role of Physical Events in a Digital World – Why Jesse believes creating real-world moments is critical, and how Design.Space will redefine the shopping experience. The Importance of Intersectionality in Business – Jesse's belief that success comes from mastering multiple industries—fashion, music, technology, art, and design—rather than specializing in just one. Why Push Marketing Is Over – Jesse's philosophy that the best brands don't chase customers but create experiences that naturally pull the right people in. Learn more about your ad choices.
