Nick & Jack Studios
About this episode

We’re dropping something vacation-themed: The Best Books Yet. Here are 3 of our favorite pop-biz books we’re bringing to the beach — they contain incredible stories with insights we’ve weaved into Takeaways before.

These are our 3 Beach Biz Reads: Jack’s pick: “Creativity Inc.” — The founding of Pixar, the animation studio behind Toy Story. Creativity can be a one-off hit. But creativity at scale is what Pixar built.

Nick’s pick: “Bitter Brew: The Rise & Fall of Anheuser-Busch” — The history, strategies, and family drama behind Budweiser, decades before the latest issues. It’s Succession, but real life. And it ended horribly. 

The 3rd book is one we’re about to read: “The Bezos Blueprint” — Communications Secrets from the greatest Salesman.
