Speaker 1 (00:01):
I am Bob Pipman, Chairman and CEO of iHeartMedia. I'm
excited to introduce a brand new season of my podcast,
Math and Magic, Stories from the frontiers of marketing. In
twenty twenty five, business and technology are evolving faster than
ever before. How of the most successful minds in marketing, entertainment, business,
and even health and science innovate and evolve. I'm having

(00:22):
conversations with some interesting folks across a wide range of
industries to hear how they reached the top of their
fields and the lessons they learned along the way that
everyone can use. How do they manage their teams, how
have they helped adapt their industries to an ever changing world,
and of course what's next. Coming up on the season
of Math and Magic, I'm sitting down with legendary singer,

(00:45):
songwriter and philanthropist Jewel. I didn't want a million dollars.
I wanted a career.

Speaker 2 (00:51):
I wanted a way to figure out how to do
something that I loved for the rest of my life.

Speaker 1 (00:55):
I'll be joined by innovative leaders like chairman and CEO
of Health Beauty to Range.

Speaker 3 (01:00):
I mean the way I approach risk is encourage an organization,
to embrace innovation, to embrace change, constantly try things and
actually make it okay to feel.

Speaker 1 (01:12):
We're also hearing how leaders brought their businesses out of
unprecedented times, like Stefan Boncell CEO of Maderna. Stefan did
what many thought was impossible during the pandemic. His team
had a vaccine developed and available within one year.

Speaker 4 (01:28):
He becomes a human decision to decide to throw by
the window your business strategy and to do what you
think is the right thing for the world.

Speaker 1 (01:36):
And Damian Maldonado, CEO of American Financing, who was homeless
growing up and went on to build one of the
major national mortgage companies.

Speaker 2 (01:44):
So if you know how to do sales, and you
could control bring and you could go whichever direction you want,
then that's magic. So at that time I was like, WHOA,
I figured out the formula. I just have to work hard,
figure out a system and duplicate it.

Speaker 1 (01:57):
Join me as we uncover innovations and data and analytics,
the math and the ever important creative spark the magic.
