Joanna Gaines Of Magnolia From Jubilee 2023 Dec 18, 2023

Show notes

Joanna Gaines of Magnolia and the hit show “Fixer Upper” is one of the most successful entrepreneurs in America today. She went from working for 10 years in her father’s tire shop after college to becoming one of the most influential women in design, media, and food.

Joanna was the keynote speaker at Cherry Bombe’s annual Jubilee conference in Manhattan earlier this year. She joined host Kerry Diamond after returning from a big family trip to Seoul, where her mother is from. Joanna and Kerry talked about Joanna’s journey as an entrepreneur and a leader, why her internship at CBS in New York didn’t quite work out, her advice for young adults regarding college (her answer might surprise you!), what’s left on her bucket list, and why it’s important to have a vision of what you’re working toward.

Willy Wonka And The Woman Who Inspired The First Chocolate Factory Film, Madeline Stuart Dec 11, 2023

Show notes

This Friday marks the release of “Wonka,” a musical starring Timothée Chalamet that tells the origin story of beloved candy maker Willy Wonka. To celebrate, we’re dipping into the Radio Cherry Bombe vault for our interview with the woman who inspired the original “Willy Wonka” film, Madeline Stuart.

Young Madeline loved “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory” so much, she suggested to her dad that the Roald Dahl classic children’s book would make a great movie. Fortunately, for legions of “Willy Wonka” fans, Madeline’s dad was director and documentarian Mel Stuart. He gave his daughter $50 for the idea and the rest is Hollywood history.

Madeline joins host Kerry Diamond to talk about the story behind the movie, what it was like on set in Munich, the Quaker Oats connection, her father’s relationship with Dahl, the casting of Gene Wilder (over the stars of “Monty Python” and others), and more. They also talk about Madeline’s career as a celebrated interior designer and her book, “No Place Like Home: Interiors by Madeline Stuart.”
