Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hey, everyone. Thanks for stopping by to check out
Opinion Party, the podcast wherewe examine the most pervasive
myths in modern marketingthrough the cold, cruel lens of
data. I'm your cohost, LauraJones. And together with Jason
Gajkowski, we've got an excitingseason of episodes planned just
for you. Opinion party issomething we've been saying for
a long time talking to clients.

(00:21):
We bring data to the opinionparty. Ain't no party like a
data party because the dataparty don't stop. I am not gonna
stop with these party doubleentendres here.

Speaker 2 (00:30):
Bring it all.

Speaker 1 (00:31):
But we really found that when you do bring data to
the opinion party, you can kindacut through all of that crap, so
to speak. And it's really hardto argue with with data and with
the years and years of data,thirty years, in fact, that we
have at our disposal, not onlywith the BrandNAS evaluator

(00:51):
dataset, but with all of theamazing academic research and
research that the field isconstantly keeping updated.

Speaker 2 (00:59):
I've been in this business for twenty five plus
years. I was very, veryfortunate to train with some of
the founders and originators ofBrand Asset Valuator, the
world's largest, mostcomprehensive longitudinal study
of brands. I'm a bit of aresearch nerd, but, you know, my
experience isn't purelyacademic. I've had the good

(01:21):
fortune of doing brand basedbusiness consulting with some of
the biggest and most importantbrands on the planet.

Speaker 1 (01:28):
I've been doing this for over twenty years as well,
talking to some of the world'sbiggest brands, helping them
grow, helping to understand anddiagnose why they're not
growing, what's wrong, whythey're sick, playing a little
bit of a brand therapist, if youwill.

Speaker 2 (01:43):
Let's get this party started, Laura. Yeah. Let's get
the party started.

Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage

Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage

Rewarded for bravery that goes above and beyond the call of duty, the Medal of Honor is the United States’ top military decoration. The stories we tell are about the heroes who have distinguished themselves by acts of heroism and courage that have saved lives. From Judith Resnik, the second woman in space, to Daniel Daly, one of only 19 people to have received the Medal of Honor twice, these are stories about those who have done the improbable and unexpected, who have sacrificed something in the name of something much bigger than themselves. Every Wednesday on Medal of Honor, uncover what their experiences tell us about the nature of sacrifice, why people put their lives in danger for others, and what happens after you’ve become a hero. Special thanks to series creator Dan McGinn, to the Congressional Medal of Honor Society and Adam Plumpton. Medal of Honor begins on May 28.
