Joseph Jaffe is Not Famous

Seems I forgot to upload this from last Friday (so you have 2 community shows back to back) We return to featuring previous incredible guests of the show. Rohit Bhargava, Tom Morris, Mark Masters, Jory Des Jardins and Angus Nelson will give us a small window into their hearts and souls. Each of my 5 guests will have a 5-minute slot to introduce the topic of their choice and then collectively, we’l...

Ever wanted to know what a buffet of thought leaders looks like? Your curated plate will be served up to you CoronaTV style. A dollup of Moshe Engelberg. A spoonful of Wesley Faulkner. A serving of Geoff Cottrill. A handful of Josh Bernoff. And a pinch of Tricia Benn. Each of my 5 guests will introduce the topic of their choice and then collectively, we’ll discuss over egg-timed 5 minutes. I don’t...

Hey don’t blame me. Don’t even blame my first two-time returning guest, Martin Lindstrom. Blame companies who have Deck Envy. Companies who have created red tape to cover more red tape – and with it, an endless amount of bureaucracy that is suffocating creativity and innovation. Fear not, the Ministry of Common Sense, Martin’s brand new book, is here to save the day…but first I’m going to need you...

It’s completely intentional to describe Sally Hogshead as fascinating. Not just because she created the FASCINATE TEST, a personality assessment doesn’t measure how you see the world, but rather the ONLY that measures how the world sees YOU, but also because of how she lives her creative passion. On today’s show, we’ll find out about how to embrace ugly, whether there is any coming back for "Brand...

I met Dan Silberberg on a C-Suite Sunday Scotch evening. I thought he was a philosopher, but it turns out he’s a leadership coach. That’s not a disappointment or a letdown, but a relief. We need more philosophy in business; in leadership; in life. Today, we’ll get to apply his “quantum” leadership approach to a vision where all possibilities exist – a different perspective in viewing market voids...

Marcus John Henry Brown describes himself as a performance artist. He creates performance art that hacks the business context, the relationships between and impact of technology, culture and commerce on society. “Part performance, part lecture (and parody) it was like watching a live TED meets ‘Black Mirror’ Live special. Terrifying as it was refreshingly original.” After reading that review, I am...

Neal Shaffer has just written a book called “The Age of Influence” but this is what drew him to me on his website, “We all have a book to write about our life, and I am no different.” So today we’ll discuss the - uncompleted – book and life of Neal Schaffer, including two near death experiences, the historical event that changed his life, the rebranding of Neal Schaffer…oh and some work stuff of c...

Cristina DiGiacomo describes herself as a practical philosopher. She also believes in the democratization of philosophy or put differently, everyone’s a philosopher (and she can prove it!) Today we’ll talk about these topics, her book “Wise Up! At Work” and also a pet peeve: the rejargonizing of everything. I can’t wait to lean in, unpack and with a bit of luck, call BINGO before she does! Enjoy a...

Andy Crestodina is all business. Well at least that’s what I take away from his wishlist. He wants to talk about content, content and content – when, where, why, how much? Formats? Video? Not video? I love it. We need to be focused on business. It’s 2021! Join us for a primer on powering forward on the front foot! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Are you ready to start 2021 off with a BANG? Well, you’ve come to the right place then. My guest today is Ashley Faus and today we’ll be discussing content playgrounds, apophenia and conspiracy theories, and last but not least, micro-feedback and external stimulus as it relates to one of the drawbacks of our current remote-heavy professional lives, the inability to add to “work in progress” ideas...

Let's try something different this year....because this year is.....DIFFERENT! So many people are going to be stuck at home...but you don't need to be stuck; not when CoronaTV is there for you. So come and hang with me as we revisit NYE - New Year's Streamin' Eve to be specific. I had some show regulars and previous guests swing by and offer up their New Year's resolutions. (and don't forget the C...

Melanie Deziel is an award-winning branded content creator and lifelong storyteller, but what I saw when I was doing my pre-show research was mom, entrepreneur, innovator and generous giver. She’s my last guest of 2020 and I couldn’t be more excited to discuss a whole swash of topics with her from being an entrepreneur as a mom AND launching a new book in pandemic, to reviewing her list of recomme...

I know him as Fey. Actually, many people know him as Fey. When we last knew each other, we were colleagues at TBWA\Chiat\Day and since then he has discovered his entrepreneurial roots by co-founding Omelet, a fiercely independent strategic and creative agency based in LA, creating and co-hosting the popular comedy culinary show “The Grill Dads” on Food Network and most impressively, growing a kick...

I hope you had a meaningful and Merry Christmas if you were celebrating. I am now on the second 50 years of my life and I couldn’t think of a better way to kick it off than with Ian Schafer on my show. Ian is a kindred spirit. Seriously. He is the founder of Kindred, a professional network, community, and learning platform built to prepare executives for the future of socially responsible business...

Happy Birthday to me! I turn 50 on December 24th and I wanted nothing more in the world than to spend part of my day with YOU (my CoronaTV audience) AND two of the most inspirational marketers in the whole wide world (and that is NOT an exaggeration!) I’m talking about Seth Godin and Professor Philip Kotler. My cup runneth over on Thursday, December 24th. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit me...

Murray Nossel was one of my favorite guests. We discussed the power of listening, active listening and actually how important it is to the narrative itself. Phrases like “forensic listening” and “listen a question” stuck with me. So when he recommended his CEO, Jerome Deroy, come on the show, I didn’t hesitate. In addition to continuing the thread on listening and storytelling, we’ll discuss somet...

Engelina Jaspers is a student and teacher of business and career agility. You had me at “student and teacher!” Being a lifelong learner is just one of the absolute necessity skills required to survive and thrive in this “brave new world.” Agility is another and just happens to be Engelina’s sweet spot.

Fridays are not awesome because they usher in the weekend, but because they bring together 5 previous CoronaTV guests and not just any 5, but David Meerman Scott, Faith James, Eaon Pritchard (if he wakes up), Kuda Biza and Mark Schaefer. Each of my 5 guests will have a 5-minute slot to introduce the topic of their choice and then collectively, we’ll discuss. I don’t know the topics in advance; nor...

Josh Bernoff is the other half of Groundswell, which in my opinion sits in a very exclusive subset of seminal books that defined a time. The others? Wisdom of Crowds. The Tipping Point. The Cluetrain Manifesto. There are others, but this gives you an idea of how excited I am to welcome him to CoronaTV today. Oh and he just penned an article in the Boston Globe which appeared over the weekend. It’s...

Farrah Bostic describes herself as a reasonably friendly pain in the ass. I like that. The world needs more of those. She’s a strategist, designer researcher and today, we’ll be discussing truth (and various versions of it across market research and politics.) Learn more about your ad choices.

Tom Deierlein was critically wounded in Baghdad serving our nation. Through his TD Foundation, he continues to serve by helping the families of fallen heroes and wounded warriors. Tom is a patriot. Tom is a hero. Tom is a friend. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Kerry O’Shea Gorgone, JD, MBA. Lawyer. Talk show host. Educator. Writer. She left out one important descriptor in her title: People Person. Throughout her career and work, she’s made it a point of uncovering, celebrating and highlighting diverse, interesting and intriguing people. Which by definition, makes her all of those things as well. Today on CoronaTV, we’ll celebrate people. Celebrate strea...

Nate Woodbury is the modern day equivalent of a rock star. Instead of getting silver records from the music industry, he gets silver play buttons from YouTube (he just got his 4th) Nate is producer for 12 YouTube channels, with his largest channel generating over $1 million per month, all from organic YouTube traffic. If you want to build a massive following of people who love you, trust you, and...

How did I come to having Joe Sinkwitz on my show? It’s a crazy story and you’ll have to watch to find out. Here’s what I’ll tell you about him: he’s a self-proclaimed crusty old digital marketer with his roots in blackhat SEO, but these days he’s all-in-on-influence and influencer marketing. Today we’ll discuss what 2021 holds in store for influencer marketing. Will this finally be its year? Will...

Are you ready to get your freak on? Embrace your freak factor? Then you’ve come to the right place! David Rendall is the author of “The Freak Factor: Discovering Uniqueness by Flaunting Weakness.” What an incredible USP as we say in the biz. That’s “Unique Selling Proposition.” He also wrote The Freak Factor for Kids and I must say, I’m almost more intrigued to go down this path versus the corpora...
