We kick things off with a nostalgic (and slightly spicy) look at the early QVC days\u2014before guests, before glitz. Was it better back then? Paul shares behind-the-scenes stories from his wild ride on the \u201c50 in 50\u201d tours, traveling coast to coast in the name of live TV. We also dish on some of QVC\u2019s most iconic hosts (yes, those names come up), then fast-forward to the present to unpack what\u2019s happening at QVC and HSN in 2025. From the shift to social media to sharp insights on where the home shopping biz is headed, this episode is a fascinating, funny, and surprisingly smart ride through retail history and its evolving future. If you\u2019ve ever bought something at 2AM\u2014or just love a good story\u2014this one\u2019s for you.
