    Building a New Jewelry Store | CarterCast Ep18 – What it Takes to Create the Future

    If you haven’t heard, we’re building a brand new jewelry store. The groundbreaking was back in June, and over the past six months, the new Jack Lewis Jewelers has been taking shape on Bloomington’s east side next to Biaggi’s, Ancho & Agave, and Crafted.   Now that the calendar has flipped to 2025, we’re excited to share increasingly more details and updates about the new store as we charge full speed ahead toward the grand opening later this Summer. That starts with a new episode of the CarterCast, filmed outside, on-location from the construction site!   From the comfort of his heated jacket on a magical 55-degree day in winter, Carter shares big picture thoughts on why he decided to build a new store, how he chose the location, who’s been involved in the project, and which parts of the design he can’t wait for you to experience yourself.   Everyone loves an origin story, and this episode of the CarterCast is where a whole new era begins. Join us this year as we journey from the dust and dirt of the ground floor …to the eventual glass of champagne on the rooftop terrace of the new Jack Lewis Jewelers.     [Premiere Date: Monday, January 6, 2025]

    How Jewelry Stores Get Diamonds | CarterCast Ep16 – The Journey from Soil to Showcase

    We’ve done lots of shows about diamonds, covering almost every facet (heh) of them from the 4Cs to buying them online to lab growns, but we haven’t talked much about how we get our diamonds. How does your local jeweler acquire the diamonds that you see in the case? What’s that process, start to finish? How might international conflicts such as wars, tariffs, and geopolitics have an impact? And what’s it like going to Antwerp surrounded by armed guards and seeing briefcases handcuffed to people’s wrists? How do you know who to trust in this wild, crazy world? They say it’s not about the destination, it’s about the journey, and that’s what we’re exploring today: the journey of a diamond from the soil to the showroom. It’s the CarterCast, the pre-proposal show for dating couples designed to make engagement ring shopping easy, understandable, and fun. Filmed on location at JoshuaOneNine in Downtown Bloomington, IL.   [Premiere Date: Monday, July 22, 2024]

    More Talk About Lab Grown Diamonds | CarterCast Ep15 – Revisiting LGD’s in 2024

    Today, we're revisiting a topic from a previous show, because a sequel is always better than the original. Wait, right? It’s been about 2.5 years since we last talked about…*gasp*… lab grown diamonds. Given the ever-changing landscape of that controversial, salacious, contentious, quarrelsome topic, we decided to check back in and see how things are going in the land of LGD’s. We bring out charts, and we play clips of Carter’s predictions from the previous episode right to his face, forcing him to respond. Was he right? Was he wrong? It’s Lab Grown Diamonds 2. Too Vast, Too Spurious. Let’s charge headfirst into controversy, on the pre-proposal show for dating couples designed to make engagement ring shopping easy, understandable, and fun. This is the CarterCast, filmed on location at JoshuaOneNine in Downtown Bloomington, IL.   [Premiere Date: Monday, February 19, 2024]
