Taking quotes out of context is a favorite pastime from both news agencies and trolls worldwide. I think one of my out of context quotes went: "You're going to be punished for having a moment of space to breathe." And while that's hard to decipher, truly inspiring quotes are much better. 

Welcome to the Just Dumb Enough Podcast. A show that acknowledges no one is always an expert, by dispelling misconceptions with real experts. 

My guest today is Tom Hagerty. Tom spent most of his life as a corporate executive, avid quote collector, and frequent quote user; much to his children's dismay. He's compiled a book of quotes and essays from a boatload of historical icons, all of whom had spectacular success in their field; even if they weren't always widely loved. He's here today to show us how these quote apply to both: Professional business, and your personal relationships.

Model Wars

Model Wars

On the surface, the modeling industry in the 80s was about parties and pretty clothes, but underneath the flash, there were drugs, sex, and violence. And Paul Fisher, a former straight-A student from the San Fernando Valley, rose to prominence amidst the turmoil. After a chance encounter with an alleged mobster, Paul suddenly found himself with a million dollars in funding and the chance to start a modeling agency in New York City. The city was then embroiled in a “model war” between industry titans Eileen Ford and John Casablancas, and Paul tried to make his mark. But even as Paul thrived in the party-heavy culture of the time, burning cash like a furnace, he came face to face with the darkest forces in the industry. As his shady backers put the screws to him, Paul faced down deadly consequences, trying to make a star while saving his soul.
