When did the word \\u201crobot\\u201d enter the English language? When did the famous Sears catalog finally bid us all adieu?

This Week in Business History just made a little bit of history of its own\\u2026 this week! Scott Luton and Kelly Barner went LIVE to take a journey down memory lane, shining a light on some of the most significant leaders, companies, innovations \\u2013 and even lessons learned \\u2013 from the week of June 20-24.

They shared stories about:

\\u2022 The iconic Jimmy Dean, musician, businessman, and - some might say \\u2013 philosopher
