#158: Yahtzee – Part Myth Part Real

  • Resumen

  • Edwin Lowe, yes the Beano... uhm Bingo guy took all he learned and created Yahtzee. You need to be observant. Dave Young: Welcome to The Empire Builders Podcast, teaching business owners the not-so-secret techniques that took famous businesses from mom and pop to major brands. Stephen Semple is a marketing consultant, story collector, and storyteller. I'm Stephen's sidekick and business partner Dave Young. Before we get into today's episode, a word from our sponsor, which is... Well, it's us. But we're highlighting ads we've written and produced for our clients. So here's one of those. [Travis Crawford Ad] Dave Young: Welcome to The Empire Builders Podcast. Dave Young here alongside Steven Semple. And as we always do, Steven... Wait a minute. You didn't whisper anything in my ear during the countdown? Stephen Semple: No, I didn't this time Dave Young: We're going into this blind. I have no idea what we're going to talk about. Stephen Semple: I didn't this time, but there's one thing I ust wanted to mention before we got into it is we're north of 156 episodes. I think this is 157 or 158. And when you think about it- Dave Young: Isn't that crazy? Stephen Semple: It is crazy. We've crossed the three-year mark. And for you and I, we haven't missed, we've not missed a week in that three years. Dave Young: I'm amazed. That's double the number of birthdays I've had, at least. Stephen Semple: I wanted to recognize that because I was looking... when I was doing the preparation and looking at this, I went, "Wow, three years. That's quite amazing." When we started this adventure, I knew we had committed to a year, and here we are still at it, which I think is pretty cool. Dave Young: It is. I don't have any stats handy, but I know that podcasting, this is one of these things that is like, "Oh, this is going to be fun." It's going to be fun to do a podcast. And it is. My participation in it is a lot of fun because I show up, you do a countdown, and I chat. But I know that it's a heavy lift, and people thinking that they're just going to start podcasting, unless you're just going to just start your own live morning show without any back-end production, it's not an easy thing to do. And you've got a whole team working behind the scenes. Stephen Semple: Yeah. There's you and I. And then we have an outsourced person who does the production, and then Dylan Bernier turns all this stuff in the shorts and whatnot. And then Matthew Burns and Gary Bernier get it all posted to the social media. And I'm going to say, if this group of people were not working on it, this would not still be going today. And I think last I looked at the stats, most podcasts I think are 10 or 12 or 14 episodes or something like that. They- Dave Young: Yeah. That's as far as you get. Stephen Semple: As far as you get. And then all of a sudden it's like, "Oh, this is a grind. This is more work than I thought it would be." And things along that line. So, well- Dave Young: You're like, "I'm going to go back to grad school," and, "Oh, God, what was I thinking?" Stephen Semple: Exactly. Dave Young: I started podcasting in 2010 and got 30 episodes in before I gave up. And I think it was just because the shine came off, the shiny object, for me, and nobody knew what a podcast was in 2012. So- Stephen Semple: Yeah. So I just want to thank you, thank the team, and just recognize this milestone. But onto the reason why people actually have tuned in, it's not to hear us chat back and forth. Dave Young: It's not. Stephen Semple: Well, it's not about that. It's not about praising ourselves. What we're going to talk about today is a game called Yahtzee. Dave Young: Yahtzee. I grew up with Yahtzee. I mean, Yahtzee's been around for a long time. Stephen Semple: Sure has. Yeah. Dave Young: And I never played it until, I think after I got married.
