    Episode 18 - - Ryan Reynalds vs Charles Barkley

    In this episode, we delve into the contrasting career trajectories of Ryan Reynolds and Charles Barkley. Ryan Reynolds, a multifaceted actor, director, and entrepreneur with an impressive net worth of $355 million, has masterfully leveraged his charisma into a formidable business asset, revitalizing brands and spearheading successful ventures. On the other hand, Charles Barkley, an NBA legend valued at $70 million, despite significant endorsements, has not yet harnessed his influential persona for comparable entrepreneurial success. Join us as we explore strategic recommendations for Mr. Barkley, drawing lessons from Mr. Reynolds' playbook that could enhance his financial legacy.

    Ep 17 - Revisiting the USFL and the XFL
    Apr 16 2024
    In this episode I revisit the USFL and XFL (now called the UFL). The question I ask is "Can the UFL be bigger than the NFL? I think they can, but they need to execute a strategy that focuses on college football fans. The UFL pulls in 900,000 viewers per game compared to the NFL's 17.9M viewers. Beating the NFL is a big challenge, but it is a possible. Listen and let me know what you think.

    Ep 14 - iHOP Should Be As Dominant As Starbucks
    Mar 3 2021
    In this episode, I discuss the International House of Pancakes and offer my strategy for making it more profitable and larger than Starbucks. Imagine a parallel universe where the iHOP founders decided to split the franchise into a smaller "coffee-focused" division while also keeping the flagship iHOP brand. What if the founders also decided to sale iHOP K-Cups ain grocery stores. I examine all these options and more!

  • Ep 13 - Why The Apple Electric Car Is A Bad Idea

    Ep 13 - Why The Apple Electric Car Is A Bad Idea
    Feb 3 2021
    In this episode, review Apple's foray into the electric car market. Prior to launching the iPhone, Steve Jobs considered launching an electric car. Had he launched an electric car in the mid-2000s, I believe that Apple would have dominated the market (just as Tesla is doing now) by 2020. However, if Apple were to launch an electric car today, it would meet competition and regulatory pressures that would make it very difficult to do what they succeeded at doing to the phone market.

    What should Apple do if they don't pursue the electric car? Check out this episode.

  • Ep 12 - The OWN Cable Network Missed A Billion Dollar Opportunity

    Ep 12 - The OWN Cable Network Missed A Billion Dollar Opportunity
    Jan 3 2021
    In this episode, I provide a potential strategy that Oprah Winfrey could use for her Own Cable Network and generate Billions in shareholder value. On December 22, 2020, Madeline Berg announced that Oprah Winfrey had sold 20.5% of her OWN Cable Network to Discovery for 1.34 million shares. The deal figures suggest that the OWN's value had dropped by 37% since 2017 when Discovery initially purchased a 24.5% stake in the company. Oprah's activity up to and after the sale indicates that she may be exiting the network and focusing more on content creation (which helped her become a billionaire).

    What could Oprah have done differently? Check out this episode.

  • EP 11 - BE INTENTIONAL - Time To Change The Dialogue From Symbol To Substance

    EP 11 - BE INTENTIONAL - Time To Change The Dialogue From Symbol To Substance
    Sep 16 2020
    After George Floyd's death, millions of dollars have been donated to charities and racial justice groups with little discussion as to what we want from those investments. I want to change that dialogue. I want EVERYONE to "BE INTENTIONAL" and create the environment where the outcomes we want can actually happen.

    What does "BE INTENTIONAL" mean? It means that we stop giving to charity and start putting money in Black-Owned Banks and letting "Fractional Reserve Banking" do for Blacks what it does for other communities.

    On January 21, 2021, I will be hosting a town hall meeting entitled, “Be Intentional: Turning Good Trouble Into Black Independence.” During this event, we will strategize ways the sons and daughters of the Black Diaspora can generate and demand the Trillions we are owed during this event.
