Brand Out Podcast

What happens when brands stop marketing at women and start marketing for them? Beth Kviz (AZEE’s Creative Director) and her lifelong bestie, Kallee Hobohm, dive into the brands that ditched their bro-only image and found massive success by embracing female consumers.

👩‍🔧 Stanley Cups – From jobsite thermos to must-have fashion accessory that women take everywhere. Hydration has never looked this good.

👟 New Balance – The dad shoe glow-up no one saw coming. How Balenciaga’s chunky sneaker wave opened the door for New Balance to dominate streetwear, high fashion, and every closet in between.

🏍 Harley Davidson – From objectifying women to celebrating female riders with exclusive events and a community that actually welcomes them.

🧴 Old Spice – How they got women to convince their men to stop smelling like a middle school locker room. Genius.

Beth and Kallee wrap things up by joking about their influencer dreams (Stanley, call them 👀) and making a few bold statements in "Branding Hot or Not", a rapid-fire game that’ll have you laughing, debating, and rethinking your favorite brands.

🔥 Ladies, brands see you. Fellas, take notes. And for companies still ignoring women? Keep losing.

What happens when a brand breaks the rules and changes the game forever? Tony Nash (The BrandFather) and Micah Nash (The BrandSon) dive deep into the Air Jordan "You Can’t Ban Greatness" campaign—a tribute to the rebellious legacy of the Jordan 1 and the moment Michael Jordan and Nike flipped the script on the NBA.

🚀 In this episode:
👟 Watching the hero commercial and breaking down its alternate timeline storytelling.
🏀 How Nike bet big on MJ, defied the league, and turned a $5,000 per-game fine into a billion-dollar empire.
🔥 Why the Air Jordan 1 became the first true signature shoe, sparking a sneakerhead revolution.
🎨 The never-ending evolution of Jordan sneakers, colors, collabs, and culture.

What if Nike had backed down? What if the Jordan 1 had been banned for real? Yeah… you can’t ban greatness.

🔥 Hit play, lace up, and Brand Out!

After the absolute disaster that was the 2025 NBA All-Star Game—players bailing last minute, terrible ratings, and a roster full of guys who had no business being there—the boys of AZEE step in to fix the mess.

🔥 Casey Lambert thinks the NBA should take a page from the NHL’s playbook and go full USA vs. The World to bring back national pride and real competition.
🔥 Dan Dameron raises the stakes with a Finals advantage—win the All-Star Game, and your conference gets a 1-game head start in the championship.
🔥 Micah Nash, a former state champion baller, calls out the players—where’s the pride? The league needs a culture shift.
🔥 Tony Nash pitches an incentive-driven 4-team tournament, where there’s more than just bragging rights on the line.
