Fortunately, his entrepreneurial drive, along with a little bit of luck, became his recipe for success.

Introducing Stick to Your Vision: Nerdwax from The Unshakeables.
Follow the show: The Unshakeables
When Don Hejny toured with big country artists, he had a sweaty problem: his glasses would not stay put on his nose. Annoyed at constantly having to adjust them, he took matters into his own hands. He found inspiration from a childhood tool - surf wax - and after three years of tinkering, NerdWax was born. He took his idea to Kickstarter, then to Shark Tank, then finally to Instagram, when he nearly lost all of his sales to an iOS Update.
Join Ben and Kathleen Griffith as they chat with Don about finding inspiration everywhere, how he was his own best product tester, and how he leveraged his appearance on Shark Tank even though he didn’t take the deal. These are The Unshakeables.

The series was unusual in that many episodes featured hard-boiled fisticuffs and gunfights. Then the series shifts to Richard Diamond showing up at his girlfriend Helen Asher's The series also stars Virginia Gregg as Dick's wealthy girlfriend Helen Asher, Wilms Herbert plays Sergeant Otis, and a series of actors including Ed Begley and Arthur Q. Bryant played Diamond's best friend, Lieutenant Walt Levinson. to serenade her as he softly sings and plays the piano and the two banter back and forth. It's an unusual series that only Powell could make work.
Diamond was a former NYPD detective who served in the O.S.S. during the war before returning home to start his own private agency. His rates are quite exorbitant at $100 a day plus expenses. Compare this to contemporary Philip Marlowe's $25 a day. He enjoys a good relationship with Lt. Levinson of the Homicide Squad while being a bane to the existence of the slow-witted Sergeant Otis.The series aired for eighty episodes on NBC, fifty-one of which were sustaining (without a sponsor) and twenty-nine sponsored by Rexall. \
It then moved to ABC and was sponsored by Camel Cigarettes for sixty-five weeks. The series returned to radio in an unusual way: CBS aired reruns of the show as a summer replacement in 1953, which was unprecedented for the time.
