B-Corp certification - marketing tool or a driver for the sustainability transformation | #7
With companies like Patagonia, Ben & Jerry’s and more than 5.000 other companies worldwide and more than 950 new certified B-Corps in 2021 (+28% YoY, source B-Lab) the concept of B-corporation is on the rise. B Corps (the B stands for benefit) are businesses which use their business as a force of good and therefore balance purpose and profit. The rise of conscious consumers and investors demand businesses to become more sustainable, while communicating transparently. At the same time, however, fair trade labels and other sustainability certifications were criticised as greenwashing tools. We wonder, is the B-Corp certification any different? ...

Examining The Bonfire of the Vanities with Ben Mankiewicz and Julie Salamon
"The Bonfire of the Vanities" went from one best-selling novels of the 1980s, but the film based on the Tom Wolfe ("The Right Stuff") book would go down as an all-time worst. This edition of the podcast looks at why it failed so historically, despite an A-list cast (Tom Hanks, Bruce Willis and Melanie Griffith) or perhaps that's a major factor for the film's demise. TCM host Ben Mankiewicz and film critic/author Julie Salamon, who host the TCM podcast "The Plot Thickens: The Devil's Candy" (based on Julie's book about the making of the movie) are here for an...

Be on the lookout for it sometime near toward the end of June 2021. Meanwhile Jerry has a new book that just hit the shelves: Typewriter Repairman, a fun character-driven fantasy set in 1982 about a magic typewriter that you can use to rewrite history -- with disastrous consequences.

Beware of Toxic Writer Trolls
Around the 18 minute mark in this episode Melanie brings up an important point: be aware that there are people out there who get off on making other writers, especially new writer, feel horrible about their own writing, and despite what they may tell you, they're not doing it to help you as much as they do it to tear you down to make themselves feel better. This is different than someone giving you honest feedback that you've asked for. In this episode we hope to help you know the difference and not let them mess with your mind.
