The Best One Yet - 🏃‍♀️ “Doing Things” — Ty Haney, Founder of Outdoor Voices

The Rise, fall, and resurrection of the coolest athleisure brand of the 20-teens, Outdoor Voices.


No one does things like Ty Haney - She’s the Anna Wintour of Athleisure, creating the Nike-devouring apparel brand Outdoor Voices after art school. Her super power is harnessing community, which brought OV a $100M valuation. In 2020, Ty was pushed out of the very brand she created by the investors whom she trusted - But 5 years later, she’s back leading OV’s resurgence. Plus, she’s running 2 other companies: TYB (a community rewards tech platform) and Joggy (a plant-based energy drink). 


On today’s pod, Ty tells you and us all about…


  • Nick & Jack giving OV a free ad on their newsletter in 2016
  • “Recreation” as OV’s “ownable term”
  • Pro tip: Use your college email address
  • Her 4-Step Formula for Building Community
  • The ultimate “Financial Trick shot”: The Tote Bag
  • What really happened with the Outdoor Voices breakup drama
  • The call that brought her back to Outdoor Voices
  • If the Direct-To-Consumer biz model has a future
  • Why “horse girl” is the next fashion trend

Amicus With Dahlia Lithwick | Law, justice, and the courts - Demolition Man

Bulldozers and bulwarks are the twin themes of this week’s show, as Dahlia Lithwick is joined by Joyce White Vance, a longtime federal prosecutor and clarion voice in defense of the rule of law, despite its flaws. As Pam Bondi’s Justice department chases down the President’s opponents, Congress walks away from its constitutional duties, and the highest court in the land struggles to find a presidential demand too outrageous to rubber stamp, it’s no wonder many Americans are exhausted by the attempt  to toggle between hope and despair. Lithwick and Vance discuss the many challenges to the integrity of the justice system and ponder what ordinary people can do to bolster vital democratic institutions under siege. Vance's new book, 'Giving Up is Unforgivable,' serves as a manual for citizens who understand that surviving this moment (and thriving after it) is a massive team project. It’s okay to huff a little hopium sometimes, but only if it’s the good stuff.

NPR's Book of the Day - Revisiting Anne Rice’s ‘Interview with the Vampire’

Do you ever get the feeling that you’re watching or reading… a lot about vampires? With the 20th anniversary of the Twilight book series upon us, plus the fact that one of the year’s biggest films, Sinners, happens to be a vampire movie, we feel like we can’t escape them - but maybe we don’t want to! On this week’s episode of Books We’ve Loved, Andrew Limbong and B.A. Parker are joined by longtime NPR editor Barrie Hardymon to talk all things Interview with the Vampire – including how author Anne Rice established the pensive prototype of the vampire as we know it today.

More or Less: Behind the Stats - Is your housework split sexist?

Do you ever have fights with your partner about who does more of the housework and whether it’s fair? Well data might have the answer.

Corinne Low is an associate professor at the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania. She analyses surveys of how people spend their time, particularly in terms of “home production” - that is things like cooking and cleaning, and “market work”, that is, paid work.

If you’re the male half of a heterosexual couple, then she’s got some stats you should hear.

Tim sat down to talk it all over while Corinne was in the UK to promote her new book on the subject - titled Femonomics in the UK, and Having It All in the US.

Presenter: Tim Harford Series producer: Tom Colls Production co-ordinator: Janet Staples Sound mix: Giles Aspen Editor: Richard Vadon

Risky Business with Nate Silver and Maria Konnikova - The Canal, the Crash and the Ketamine – Pushkin’s Reign of Error

We have a special episode for you today! In which Nate and Maria join their fellow Pushkin hosts to dive deep into the art of failure.

Tim Harford of Cautionary Tales shares stories of minor mistakes with massive consequences. Jonathan Goldstein of Heavyweight speaks with his friend, the writer Sheila Heti about the cost of mistakes and whether we're really in control of how many we make. And, our very own Nate and Maria give a gambler's take on the strange science of regret.
