No, that's really a shame. And another complaint I had comes to say, actually, The White House game, I was trying to get this new ice cream dish that they have at the game called this rainbow cone. And that's four different sherbet flavors. And it's been pretty widely advertised by the White Sox. The Porsche I went in the fourth Indian is already sold out. Oh no. Oh no. Yeah. I have a disappointment along with The Rain delay. Right, that's a big one, and recently I read a spoof site for a moment. They're almost believed that they were going to combine the rainbow cone

"Buy an airline ticket I think where did I hear all Wrigley Field is totally cashless this year You have to have a credit card So you go to Wrigley Field and a beers $15 and a hot dog's ten and you paid for parking in the tickets and you had a great time but if you don't pay that often when the bill comes in well there you go I mean it's crazy You look at how much you look at how much you wind up owing over a 20 year period or whatever It's insanity People need to pay off those cards every month so that they're not in debt to finances Because the rates are not two and 3% on a credit card You might get that wonderful welcome offer but then you miss a payment or it's a year later and now you're looking at up to 21% or higher This is insanity Right You got to read the fine print that might be 0% for the first 12 months but then it goes to 22% after that Well right and just like the deal at furniture stores used to do years ago is no financing for one year Well if you didn't pay it off in full by the end of the year all the financing was due Here you come Like a waterfall Sure Sure Sure Hey I had a quick question about the planners and thanks for playing that The planners were my father's favorite band And thank you Sure But I had heard and I had seen that there were two different touring groups of the platters Many more And I was wondering if you could clarify if that's true and why were there two different touring groups of the platters Oh yeah there were more than two Many more than two This is a real problem There were actually at one point I am not making this up over a 125 different platters Why Because they were associated with the band for 15 minutes Well in some cases yes You know remember there were formed in 53 in Los Angeles and they were originally like I was playing movie Abbey The stuff you're dead liked was probably the mercury stuff like smoke gets in your eyes and only you and all that stuff And then later they were on music or and had all those beach music hits So you're looking at a lot of different errors and this has spawned actually regulation in some case in an honesty and music type laws in some places where you had to have at least one original member and all of that Of course the platters were interesting because their manager buck ram actually owned the name and this became a problem as well with them So there were there were so many Of course you know the platters never would have been on mercury which is where they had all the hits your dad liked What happened was their manager buck ram also managed the penguins and mercury wanted the penguins and he said well if you want the penguins you got to take the platters and they said we don't want the platters He said then you don't get the penguins So they reluctantly took the platters Meanwhile the penguins never had another hit after earth angel And of course the platters started having all those pop standards that Twilight times in my prayer and all that kind of stuff The voice on all of those was Tony Williams And he actually was probably not in any of these other groups but when you look at the infamous members Cornell gunter Alex Hodge you know Nate Nelson of course sunny Turner very well known on the beach music circles and Cornell gunter was of course in the coasters and Zola Taylor the female voice who was married to Frankie Raymond for a minute So yeah they all all did this but you know one of the problems is if the name is owned the person who owns the name can license it to anybody who wants but at the time there were individuals who spent a fortune trying to trying to sue And this was true about all these groups but for whatever reason the platters were just huge So Nevada passed a law saying no it was illegal if you don't have the rights to the name It was almost like you were seeing a cover band Absolutely Absolutely right And you know Motown shame on them They would license it They had a group going around as the elgins the group that did darling baby one of my favorite oldies and must have sent you Well you get on stage and you look at this girl saying and our first hit and I'm thinking you weren't even alive lady Yeah exactly So yeah I can't tell you how many times people say oh I'm going to see Martha and the Mandela's and no you're not You know I'm seeing the marvel yet I said on your dreams So yeah the patent for the platters turns out at this point herb Reed on the patent but you can read about this because it's a well known group of cases There were so many people There were like three different acts of playing the Sahara at the same time who were like weren't platters weren't drifters I forget what the third one was but sure enough there they were Wow I didn't know there were that many I only thought there were two I knew there was a group with the female and I knew there was the other and I just thought maybe there was just bad blood between them No Oh no no no no no no I look for some links and I'll put it on Raleigh dot net if you want to read some of this stuff because yeah there were a ton of lawsuits Thank you so much Raleigh a pleasure talking to you on a really love so glad that there's life radio here at night in Chicago So thank you And I'm so glad you called please do it again You have a great night Okay bye Yeah so they had the truth in music act in Nevada but well anyway I will get you some links on that but John says earn your money for God's sake All right we'll get back hopefully Hopefully till Leah Eduardo and Ruth and if not there's always next week but

"With both Oracle Park and Wrigley Field. The two venues that at least for me, I'll be working in and the broadcasting from Today as well. Well, I was thinking about Cub fans. And look, you've been the Wrigley A million times. I've been there a few times. But is there a more suffering fan base in the National League than the Chicago Cubs fan base? And still John, They come out to that ball park. They have a great time, the bleacher bums and everything else. It's quite a story. Chicago Cubs baseball Well, I always felt that the great thing that every team should try and, uh, find out how to Replicate what the Cubs have been able to do, which is fan just like to go there. They Have a good times and bad and obviously fewer go when it's bad times. But I think they just love the scene there and the Cubs are Wrigley Field. Wrigley Field is the Cubs, So they've been spending a lot of money trying to Renovate the ballpark in terms of the club houses and now the press box and The there's a restaurant out in center field and some of the outside areas of the ballpark. They have taken part of what used to be a street and put that onto the property. There's a little hotel sort of a boutique hotel right across a little playground. We saw kids playing out there. These last two days and playing baseball. They were they were playing catch and whatnot. So, uh, which is kind of cool to see? So, uh, so they've done. A lot of things do to try to modernize it. But when you go in, it's still Wrigley Field just at his As it always has been with a few extra like a couple of huge electronic boards out there in left center and down the right field line. Which I think the the old timers. The purists were a little offended by that, like what is that? That's not part of Wrigley. Come on, but I think that's what the fans want. They want that extra information. They want to see a replay. And I think that that was something that you expect in the ballpark now and you weren't getting it at Wrigley. But now now you can By the time it was Stella muscled up, John and hit that scoreboard Now when I first heard it, I said, did he hit the thing that center field because that's about 600 ft away, but he did hit the scoreboard and right. He's one of the few to do that. Well, the That was quite a shot. And I think what was the estimate on? It was 409 ft. Anytime. A guy can pull the ball and have got 409 ft.

Why do i don't want to say that. That whole series is one. You should be tuning into that one. That one game absolutely tomorrow. If you're gonna watch a ball game we're gonna throw game on. You can have some folks over whatever but that would on the big tv data on the big tv. Everything else soak it up. Enjoy it. But i think that padres dodgers series is is really the one like i. Don't my cardinals fans out. There are going to be glued to the tube understanding what that's series means against the reds But yeah for all chaos purposes padres dodgers lock in good pitching matchups right moscow versus julio rheos. You've got chris paddock the paddy wagon. That's right against walker bueller pad daddy and then fucking nails zillah blake snell versus max shurer. Yeah and blake. Snell has been throwing the piss out of the ball for like a month now and we need a big bounce back outing from walker bueller to get us back into that cy young race baby. Yeah blake snell score some fuck and runs for this dude blake. Snell gave up seven earned runs against the oakland a.'s. On july twenty eighth since then he's made seven starts a one eight five year a one thirty six batting average against four sixty three o. p. s. against sixty five strikeouts in forty three and two thirds innings. So he's been nails but for some reason the padres are three and four in those games and got a fucking score for blake snell. He's been dropping his dick on the table. His last three outings yet. You can't be determined. Blake nil now. Loggers last three outings. Seventy two thirds seven innings seven innings and. he carried a no hitter through seven Into the into the seventh and in two of those it's insane he's been pitching dick off so score runs for blake snell. It'll be a nice little finale to to that series so we'll see what happens. We'll we'll we'll meet back on monday. We'll reconvene breakdown. The baseball that happened over the weekend. And we'll see where we're at picture wise because there could be some there could be some tectonic plates moving around dallas. This weekend can be some shipton going on Final thoughts. I'm gonna i'm gonna start with Some that we did for morning would or not morning mood actually got posted the ballpark. Betting booths betting booths. How about this wrigley actually dropped it on us. What back in january they gave us renderings. The chicago cubs gave a sweet renderings. Of what the ballpark sportsbook is going to look like the book and things attached right to the wrigley field right to wrigley field. It is quite literally going to be an artery of gambling directly connected to baseball The reason i think about this is because there's a ton of nuance with with pete rose and gambling on games and only gambling on games to win. Well gamble on that game then. Isn't that kinda. Give us some insight to folks who might wanna bet against them winning like there's a lot to unpack with pete rose and maybe some of the opportunities that he was given quote unquote given to try to clean it up and he didn't take advantage of. There's a lot going on. It's just crazy to think that there might not be an effort. Made to try to figure. Out how pete rose can find his way into the baseball hall of fame all while having a conversation about sports books now playing the role that they play in the game of baseball. Like let me tell you fans you think for one minute. That nowadays wants that light up card gets written out that by the time he gets posted to the general public. That hit hasn't made its way into somebody's uncle salads fucking hands. It's an uncle gino's hands. Yeah that's you go in bank that as a fact so to not have the hit king in the hall of fame for gambling on baseball well. We're sitting here talking about sports books being physically attached to baseball stadiums. these days. Like there's just something not right about that you know. I don't. I'm excited for it though. I'm excited or once. They because they don't have it in new york they don't have it massachusetts so any of the places that normally and like there's no sportsbook there but once that stuff starts very excited to get into the mix. Oh it's it's built. Because i mean if you've ever you go vegas and you find yourself a nice little nice little table you chill pull up and you've got everything in front of you everything accessible and that's what it's gonna be. It's you know you might not even make it into the ballpark. My show up. Like i said you get hit in the face with a a wall full of cascading televisions in. Like what do you mean. I'm good right here. That's a big ask tv. I feel like. I'm in the box with these guys like. I don't need to go out to the ballpark. So on their way they're coming can wait all right joy.

It's also just as hard air a lot of a con- you know to have such a large company and having you know really a large stake in in particular verticals too so yeah definitely i mean we know that you know big businesses sort of struggle with more of that agile innovation because you're building around efficiency and so being able to pivot really quickly and continuing to pivot not just create one agile innovation and guard unite. That's done and dusted but continue to evolve an experiment. This culture of experimentation is not naturally built into big companies. sorry inquiry trying it a lot of other. Cpg's trying it and the most important thing is minimizing your upfront investment when you talk about agile innovation. Sorry that's where foresight can really come in and help you do that. Spotting the what's on the fringe. What are the weak signals where whereas changed coming from a consumer behavior perspective. And to your earlier point you know really partnering with the parts of the business that are actually instigating these projects and running them end to end. So we have a really great partnership with our innovation. Teams are agile innovation insights teams and some of those launch pad teams the teams. That are really looking at the innovation on the fringes to help. Give them that intel. I love that. And i'm come back to something else you said earlier. You mentioned is global..

There's a real reevaluation of people's lives and what's meaningful to them and what's not sorry. It has a real long lasting change not necessarily in what people need but in how they behave and how they act in the context of their world and that's applicable in north america also in india and china all across the world so that was a really important thing for us. A foundation lay come in as a foresight team and say this is changing For the long term. And then the other two things that i would say when we've seen studies in the past around four side and what benefits foresight can give inside of an organization in. Cpt or other. It's sort of three core things. And it's tackling the business issues. That leaders are most concerned about in the sense that they feel lease prepared to tackle these things. So one is what we just talked about. Which is changing consumer behaviors. And you have a whole insights team. That's dedicated to that really looking at the past and the present not so much looking at the futures. Let's where foresight can really come in and give you that. You know foundational knowledge of human behaviors into the future.

"Always bringing you new people to connect with and new ideas. To consider and so today is no exception. I have joe lingerie on with me from mars wrigley. We're going to talk about some very very interesting thing. And as where my heart always is is in podcasting. We're gonna end talking about a very interesting and innovative ways to look at podcast here in our industry so joe. Welcome to laundry from the church. Thank you so much. It's an absolute on a to be on your show percents. I'm a huge fan of everything that you do. Well somebody that we love in common unter from alpha diver puts together. And i love it when other people put us together. Because i feel like those are very conscientious. People who say you know what. I know you and i know you end. This would be magic. That's what happens. Yeah absolutely an hunter is one of those people i think can spot connections. And he's been he's been a great help to me. As i've sort of settled into this new global role that i'm in when i've moved countries to help create connections for me so i'm incredibly thankful for people like that that can help to create networks and strengths between people. Yeah he is very good for that. You'll find that there's so many in this industry you're like that so let's talk a little bit about those two things. Let's first talk a little bit about your role and then we'll talk about some of the changes because we do want to invite people to network and we'll get into that a little bit. But tell us than joe in your day over it of mars wrigley. Tell us a little bit about the rule. What does it really needs to be a global foresight. Lead right question and forci. I think it's one of those ways. It's kind of like a future as when you say you're futurists. I envisage the future of chocolate is what i often say to people because it sounds really fun But in reality it's all about bringing futures investments to a corporate setting right sorry global foresight essentially means that where where a team that's looking across a multitude of macro forces micro trends signals of change and then bringing that distilling that down into our mosley business and we look at everything across treats and snacks as a portfolio to basically say what did the blind spots what are the competitors doing. What are some of those things that consume are adopting at a really early stage. That could be a competitive advantage for us. What are some of those investments. We should be making today to set us up for the future. So i look at global foresight from a global perspective but also looking specifically after the north american market. So trying to bring that cultural understanding of what's really happening in america and canada to the global investments that were trying to make as a company and then bringing that back down to the north american market to say so. What for you and what you should be doing in your market so we we have a brand new team in a brand new function inside of mosley dedicated to foresight. And i'm one of four And where incredibly incredibly lucky be in this position where we're helping to guide the business To look further out so like my cpj's our businesses very very good at looking one. Two three years out foresight is really here to help business project for us..

I wouldn't be able to tell you that. Wanted to be a writer. Wanted to tell you that. Want to be a storyteller. When i was eight nine whatever but there was clearly that kind of urge you know and it came out from drawing my own versions of superheroes and writing out descriptions of what their powers were their origin story in their history. but i wasn't really writing actual Stories sentences paragraphs. I call it proto writing years but then when i was about ten We took a little trip to catalina island. Which is the sort of resort island off the coast of los angeles. And we're doing a bus tour and The bus tickets by zane grey's housing gray was turn of the century. Western writer was huge huge bestseller western writer. And i remember the tour pointed house. And i remember thinking the house was cooled now in respect what i actually thought was zane. Grey's house was actually the wrigley mansion belonging to wrigley the guy that made a fortune from chewing gum which was an actual mansion. And so there's some combination of the wrigley mansion looking like a really cool lifestyle and wanting to tell stories and hitting that age when i was discovering stars that also colest- with this idea that being right or the cool thing to be and then in junior high Through high school writing assignments creative writing where my favorite things. And i was getting the pats on the back of the teachers and the positive reinforcement. But it wasn't probably until late high school early college that i was starting to realize is this is actually a job. This is a career that people could do and they're not necessarily going to live in a wrigley mansion but this can be something they can do to occupy their days Nine to five. So i started short stories. Finishing short stories researching how to market. How the business actually works Submitting short stories to magazines collecting those big stacks of rejection letters. And i think that i was at least at the time it was published in a long time till anybody was willing to pay me any actual money for writing but i think by late high school. I was kind of on that road and had to a lot of other things. Obviously throughout my life because That's a that's a difficult road to decline so typical hill to climb and succeed at But at least. I knew that i had to put in the effort and pay the dues and do all those things put in the ten thousand hours or hours whatever it is now point data and when you were in that high school college.
