DeltaTalk Radio -- Podcast -- June 23, 2011

  













THE ALL-AMERICAN HOMAGE AND THE "50-POUND SICKNESS" 

(click here for the podcast)

What a great week it was! Last week, we talked with Tupelo's mayor live from Kansas City, where a 35-person delegation was prepping for its All-America City Award presentation. The next day, it was official; Tupelo -- for the 4th time -- took the title. In this show, we look back on the excitement with Dr. Jay Dey, Zell Long, and Anna Freeman Wyatt, three members of the team that helped take Tupelo to the top.

Also, creativity guru Josh Mabus (mabusagency.com) and I talked about the infamous "50-Pound Sickness" suffered by business owners and lesser-experienced marketers. They're trying to get bigger bangs for their marketing bucks, but in reality, they're giving their customers a case of the yawwwwwns.

Kay Mathews, long revered in North Mississippi for her selfless work at Tupelo's Regional Rehabilitation Center, stopped by for a quick chat (http://regionalrehab.org).

And author/poet/civic cheerleader Patricia Neely-Dorsey -- one of the most upbeat people we ever had on the show -- read from her book of poems "Reflections of a Mississippi Magnolia." You can catch up with her at http://patricianeelydorsey.webs.com.

All that and more!
