NEW CITY, New York, Dec. 18, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — coop & spree, the New York-based contemporary retailer, has launched a podcast called coop convos, which is all about business, retail and wellness. coop convos is hosted by CEO and founder of coop & spree, Brooke C. Richman, who will interview various business leaders, tastemakers and influencers in their aforementioned industries. Since Richman is an avid New York Knicks fan (Spree in coop & spree comes from the name of her childhood dog who paid tribute to former Knick, Latrell Sprewell), she even interviewed and secured some former NBA stars.
The podcast is available on over 10 platforms and the first episode will air on February 1, 2023. To date, Richman has secured over 35 high-profile guests and has already recorded episodes with Stephanie Gottlieb, founder of Stephanie Gottlieb Fine Jewelry, Dale Stabler, wellness entrepreneur and co-founder of Sweats + The City, as well as the Orro + Theheard apps, and Alan Houston, 2x NBA All-Star for the New York Knicks, Olympic Gold Medalist and founder of FISLL, the social lifestyle and clothing brand.
Notable confirmed guests include Sydney Sadiq, author, TV host and founder of Spotlight Magazine, Jen Ross, co-founder of Swoon, Samantha Steen, CEO and founder of Cami NYC, Kendra Randle, designer and founder of Kalore and wife of the current Star of the Knicks Julius Randle, Kimberly Ross, founder and CEO of Ora, and John Wallace, a former NBA star, investor and philanthropist who also serves as the Knicks’ radio personality.
During the onset of the pandemic in March 2020, Richman temporarily moved from his New York City apartment to his childhood home in Greenwich, Connecticut, where he learned to code and created his electronic communication website, coopandspreevip.com. With her Elizabeth Street store in New York closed due to the pandemic, she had all of her salespeople ship her orders to her home in CT, where she fulfilled them. When she wasn’t opening new merchandise or packing her customers’ orders, she used Instagram Live as a way to engage with her coop & spree audience since she was no longer able to interact with them in person. She decided to start interviewing different designers and influencers, many of whom she knew and many of whom she had never met, and she really enjoyed it. And so is her audience. It became a weekly tradition and the rest, as they say, is history. These weekly IG TV “interviews” not only created a much-needed connection in a time of unprecedented isolation, but also provided Richman and coop & spree with a new way to engage with both customers and suppliers.
coop convos has the same format as Richman’s IG lives, where Richman focuses on each guest’s career and personal story, in a relaxed format that feels less like an interview and more like two old friends catching up. While the main purpose of the Podcast is to provide valuable and informative insights and resources to those specifically interested in entrepreneurship, retail and wellness, Richman promises it’s also filled with light-hearted banter and just the right amount of laughs.
