This Week in Business History LIVE! - with Keith Singleton
Description
In this LIVE episode of This Week in Business History, Scott Luton and Keith Singleton connected the dots of history while taking a journey down memory lane, shining a light on some of the most significant leaders, companies, innovations – and even lessons learned – from the week of August 15-19th.
They shared stories about:
• The origin story of Hardee's Restaurants, and how the controlling share of the company was lost (and won) in a poker game
• Which artist or band best exemplifies the ‘glory days’ of compact discs or CDs
• How the use of mail order catalogs helped Sears expand their customer base
• The lasting message (and timeless warning) of George Orwell’s ‘Animal Farm’
