About this episode

This week, it’s our annual Brand Envy episode.

 

Every year, I list four brands I’ve admired from a distance.

 

We’ll talk about a classic board game created by a Canadian couple.

 

An ice cream chain founded by another Canadian.

 

An iconic lighter that was named after a zipper.

 

And a woman who is dominating television these days.
