Summary: For the 50th episode of the Loose Threads Podcast, a show about the rapidly changing consumer economy, I talk with Charlie Giannetti, who I ran a menswear line with for two years, which led to the creation of Loose Threads, the podcast and now the entire ecosystem we’re building. Charlie and I talked about our brand’s beginnings, all of the lessons we learned, how the original incarnation of Loose Threads started, and what he’s working now as our paths have diverged a bit but remain intertwined. It was great rehashing the last few years of our respective journeys with Charlie. Running Gioventu was the hardest thing I had done, until Loose Threads assumed that position, but both have also been the most rewarding. Thanks to everyone for listening to the Podcast for the last 50 episodes, and here’s to another 50. — Show Notes — Giannetti Factory https://www.giannettifactory.com/ Edited by George Drake Jr. — About Loose Threads — http://LooseThreads.com Join the newsletter: http://eepurl.com/buLQY9 Twitter: http://twitter.com/loosethreadscom The Loose Threads Podcast explores the intersection of consumer, retail and commerce.
