The weekly podcast will feature business leaders shaping the future of the design, furniture, lifestyle and home industries.

ANDMORE has launched its new podcast, The Market Makers, as a weekly series spotlighting the authentic journeys of creative and business leaders shaping the future of design, furniture, lifestyle and home industries. Hosted by ANDMORE CEO Jon Pertchik, the podcast’s first episode has been released and features design icon Thom Filicia.

Each episode of The Market Makers delves into the compelling stories behind influential individuals and visionary brands, uncovering how industry leaders transformed bold ideas into meaningful impact, navigated challenges with strategic thinking, and turned moments of inspiration into enduring success. Featuring a dynamic mix of designers, retailers, CEOs and manufacturers, the show delivers both inspiration and practical insights for professionals across the lifestyle, home, gift and furnishings industries.

In addition to weekly episodes, the podcast features a special Scale Up Series where Pertchik sits down with fellow CEOs to discuss leadership, growth and strategy at scale.

“The Market Makers is more than a podcast — it’s a platform for connection, inspiration and transformation. We’re celebrating the people who shape our industry and sharing the lessons that help others grow within it,” says Pertchik. “It’s about building community through conversation.”

New episodes will air every Thursday, with upcoming guests including Anita Yokota, Sabrina Soto, Bob Maricich and Josh & Brent of Beekman 1802. The Market Makers can be found on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, Amazon Music, Pocket Casts and andmore.com/podcast.
