J.P. Morgan: The Man Who Owned America

Monday, March 4, 2024 • Duration 18:12

Wealth, power, and influence. J.P Morgan had it all. He owned the first billion-dollar company. He dominated the country’s most profitable industries. And on multiple occasions, the economy of The United States quite literally depended on the actions of J.P. Morgan. With a simple word or the stroke of a pen, John Pierpont Morgan could save a company from collapse or doom it to bankruptcy. There will never be another man quite like JP Morgan - literally, he is part of the reason the federal reserve was created so that the finances of a country wouldn’t be in the hands of one ultra wealthy and influential financier. This MagnatesMedia documentary is the story of JP Morgan - aka John Pierpont Morgan: the banker who owned America. We’ll look at how he pioneered Morganization to consolidate companies and grow his fortune, how he made deals with the government to help stabilize the economy (e.g. through a gold syndicate), and even the troubled personal life of John Pierpont Morgan - who despite his wealth and business / financial success was plagued by tragedy. Of course long after JP Morgan died his legacy has lived on through his bank (now JPMorgan Chase), and so I hope you enjoy the history of the industrialist and magnate, John Pierpont Morgan.

However, this failing business would later become the global fast food empire Burger King, making tens of billions of dollars a year, and operating in over 100 countries around the world. The truth of how they achieved this is crazy, and involves smashing up their own equipment with a hatchet. But, whilst Burger King is undeniably an inspiring underdog entrepreneurial success story, there’s also a dark twist. Because the secret to Burger King’s success… was stolen. In this story of Burger king, we’ll see how Burger King became successful, the company’s successes and failures, and lots more fascinating details about the history of Burger King. Burger King started out as 1 single store called ‘Insta-Burger’, and it was failing horribly.

Welcome to the INSANE Story of Burger by MagnatesMedia (business mini movies / business documentaries).

Zoom: The Love Story That Changed The World

Wednesday, February 28, 2024 • Duration 31:28

Skype launched nearly a decade before Zoom, so why does everyone use Zoom now instead? Before the pandemic shut down the world, Skype held the largest share of the video-calling market. So when businesses, friends, and families had no choice but to interact with each other through their screens, Skype was set to see the sort of growth other companies can only dream of. But that didn’t happen. Instead, Zoom seemed to pop up out of nowhere and take over the industry in what felt like the blink of an eye. So what exactly did happen? How did Zoom’s founder, who moved to the US unable to speak a word of English, beat Microsoft, and build the number one video calling platform in the world? And how did a young man’s desire to see his girlfriend turn into a company worth billions of dollars? This is the incredible love story that changed the world. This is the inspiring true story of Zoom. In this video we’ll answer questions like: How did Zoom become so successful? Why did Zoom become so popular? And we’ll not just look at Zoom vs Skype, but the battle for the whole video conferencing market. I hope you enjoy the history of Zoom.

The Untold TRUTH Of Nintendo

Monday, February 26, 2024 • Duration 40:13

At first, Nintendo had nothing to do with video gaming. Its president Hiroshi Yamauchi didn’t even play video games. Instead, Nintendo made hanafuda playing cards which were used to gamble, and their biggest customer was the Yakuza (essentially the Japanese Mafia). So, how did a small family-run card business turn into one of the best-selling gaming companies of all time - responsible for some of the most iconic characters ever created like Mario, Luigi, Donkey Kong, and so many more? As well as creating countless iconic consoles like the Gameboy, Wii, Switch and NES. It’s time to take a journey through Nintendo’s epic history. We'll not only cover Nintendo's strange origin story and the full Nintendo history, but also the birth of Mario, the Kirby vs King Kong lawsuit, the console wars with Sega, how Nintendo betrayed Sony, and so much more from Nintendo's crazy past. This is the insane story of Nintendo - a MagnatesMedia business documentary.

The Disturbing Business of Bananas

Sunday, February 25, 2024 • Duration 52:57

The disturbing business of bananas - a documentary looking at the dark history of the banana industry & The United Fruit Company. This involves the coup in Honduras, the banana massacre, and overthrowing the democratically-elected Guatemalan leader. The banana industry is responsible for massacres, revolutions, wars, and secret deals with the CIA. At one point, the world’s largest banana company practically acted like a government in Central America, controlling most of their land and infrastructure. They were responsible for overthrowing presidents who tried to give workers more rights, and installing leaders who helped the banana companies make more money. Honestly, after this video, you will never look at a banana the same way again. This is the disturbing true story of the banana business. In episode 1 of this banana business series, we looked at the rise of Sam, the banana man - how a penniless immigrant made a fortune selling ripe bananas, and worked his way up to becoming a major player in the banana business. But in this episode, we’re going to look at what happened next, as once Samuel Zemurray became involved with a company called United Fruit, the story takes a much darker turn. If you enjoy dark business documentaries about powerful corporations, the disturbing history of the banana industry is for you.

The Banana King: The INSANE True Story

Thursday, February 22, 2024 • Duration 20:03

The banana king was one of the richest and most powerful men in the world. When a country’s government didn’t give him what he wanted, he simply overthrew the government. He declared literal war on his competitors. And he built a gigantic business empire from nothing. You see, before he became the banana king, this man was simply known as Sam - an immigrant with no money, no connections, and no real hope. Sam’s journey to building such a successful company is an astonishing underdog story. And throughout his life, Sam became entangled with countless famous figures, from US presidents to business magnates like JP Morgan. And yet it all begins, with ripe bananas.

Tuesday, February 20, 2024 • Duration 27:38

THE STORY OF PEPSI & PEPSICO - Here’s the truth Pepsi don’t want you to know: Pepsi started off as a rip off of Coca-Cola. And Pepsi Cola even tried to sell their company to Coca-Cola on three separate occasions. But Coke kept turning them down. As a result, Pepsi struggled and literally went bankrupt on two separate occasions.

From humble beginnings to controversial conglomerate with blood on its hands? Welcome to the insane history of Pepsi.
