Desert Diamonds, World Diamond Day and the Sale of De Beers

In the debut episode of The Diamond Dudes, Rob Bates, Edahn Golan, and Avi Krawitz break down De Beers’ “Desert Diamonds” campaign and what it says about how the industry is reacting to lab-grown competition and changing consumer tastes. The conversation moves into the widening gap between natural and lab-grown diamonds, what’s actually happening at retail, and why it’s getting harder to sell lower-quality natural stones.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍

Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
