Description
In this episode we're on a bit of a field trip out to my alma mater, the University of Washington. We were invited here to the Foster School of Business by Dr. Marty Matthews who's a professor of marketing—and she also happens to be a Nordy Pod listener. She emailed me awhile back letting me know that she's actually been assigning Nordy Pod episodes as homework in a few of her classes. So, we thought it might be a fun idea to go in person and speak to her students for the show. First, we sit down with Professor Matthews herself to learn a little bit about her background and then we head over to the classroom to meet with her marketing students. And I've got to say, I love whenever I get the chance to hear from young people about their experience with Nordstrom. They've always got interesting stuff to say, and I often gain useful insights that I can take back and share with our team. So, we're super excited to get the opportunity to get a glimpse into these bright young minds, eager to dive into the wide world of business.

Ep 3. Sub Pop CEO Megan Jasper: This episode was particularly fun for me, because I got to sit down with a few good friends, talk about music and one of them even brought cookies! My first guest is a longtime friend, a fellow music enthusiast and author of the lexicon of grunge, Megan Jasper. As the receptionist at an emerging and struggling young Sub Pop Records, Megan got a front-row seat as Nirvana changed the world of music forever. Now as the CEO, she has helped hundreds of new artists find their place in the industry. What you’re about to hear is not your typical CEO journey. Megan grew up dreading her assumed future of becoming either a stay-at-home mom, a schoolteacher or a nun, which didn’t exactly fit well with her free-spirited, punk rock lifestyle. By age 14, she was already on the radio pumping out anti-authoritarian tunes and donning a shaved head and wardrobe that made her teachers concerned for their safety. It wasn’t long before Megan started hitching rides with touri by The Nordy Pod
