✅ Vote for TBOY to win “Best Business Podcast” at the Webby Awards: https://vote.webbyawards.com/PublicVoting#/2024/podcasts/shows/business
June 13th will be Elon Musk’s most awkward day ever — Tesla Shareholders are voting “yes” or “no” on whether Elon should get a $56 Billion paycheck.
The wildest new product in the grocery store is “Designer Fruit” — Turns out, sticking a logo on an Apple makes it worth more, because adjectives are more valuable than nouns.
And President Biden just announced he’s tripling tariffs on Chinese steel — That means America and China just entered what we call Trade War II.
Plus, the hot new vacation trend is… living forever — Hotels are trading saunas for Vitamin-B-oxygen-enriched IV infusions, because “life extension” is all the rage.

✅ Vote for TBOY to win “Best Business Podcast” at the Webby Awards.
https://vote.webbyawards.com/PublicVoting#/2024/podcasts/shows/business
Limitless (backed by Andreessen Horowitz) just launched a $99 AI pin that records your conversations and transcribes them into notes for you — So we’re looking at a world where everything you say, do, and hear is recorded… and how to prepare.
Ghost Kitchens were supposed to be the future of food, but now they’re disappearing (like ghosts) — This looks like a classic case of “The Segway Effect.”
And General Electric just sold its famous Management Academy, a 60-acre corporate retreat campus — It means the Jack Welch School of Business is officially closed.
Plus, Heinz just launched a new product: Ketchup Insurance — It’s time to ensure that your cute white top is insured.

🥸 “Rice & beans forever” — Dave Ramsey’s financial advice. Scrabble’s new game. BMW’s electric surprise.
✅ Vote for TBOY to win the “Best Business Podcast” Webby Award: https://vote.webbyawards.com/PublicVoting#/2024/podcasts/shows/business
Dave Ramsey has created a $200M fortune by giving out financial advice on the radio, but now he’s facing a backlash — So we’ll share our #1 rule for personal finance.
Scrabble just unveiled “Scrabble Together”, which is less competitive, more for fun — Purists were furious, but this reminds us of Coca-Cola’s new sodas and the backlash they received (or didn’t).
And the surprise car brand that’s catching up to Tesla? BMW — Beamers are doing one thing on the assembly line that no other car company is, and its electric cars are thriving.
Plus, the #1 new office accessory is the couch — But have we hit peak office comfort couch?

👟 “Fallbirds $1 stock” — Allbirds’ DTC downfall. Lunchables lead crisis. JP Morgan’s credit card signal.
✅ Vote for TBOY to win the “Best Business Podcast” Webby Award: https://vote.webbyawards.com/PublicVoting#/2024/podcasts/shows/business
Allbirds just got Wall Street’s worst warning: “Get your stock price above $1 or get delisted from Nasdaq” — So we’re looking at the great de-horning of our generation’s favorite unicorns.
JPMorgan’s earnings report is our window into your wallet — And that signal shows why 2024 will have higher interest rates, for a longer time than we hoped.
And Lunchables, the $2B lunch brand, is on the federally-subsidized public school lunch menu — But Consumer Reports says it should be off the menu, so we remind Lunchables of the “The 3 A’s of Crisis Management.”
Plus, a dog toy company just launched an airline dogs and their pawrents called “Bark Air” — $6K for NYC-to-LA? Bark twice if you’ve got a better name for this doggy airline carrier.

🫘 "Decaf is king" — Coffee's decaf surge. Amazon's river strategy. Fanatics' Comic-Con of Sports.
✅ Vote for TBOY to win the “Best Business Podcast” Webby Award: https://vote.webbyawards.com/PublicVoting#/2024/podcasts/shows/business
More Americans than ever are ordering their coffee decaf — Decaffeinated coffee is booming because consumers want drugs without the drugs.
Amazon just said in the annual shareholder letter that the number of Prime Video watchers is 200M as the stock hit an all-time high — Because Amazon’s using “The River Strategy” (unironically).
Fanatics is launching the comic-con of athletics, a “Fanatics Fest” this August in New York City — Tom Brady, Derek Jeter, and Kevin Durant are blending the sports industry with Hollywood.
And office buildings are doing weddings on the weekend.

🚅 “Magnetic levitation” — Japan’s 300 mph flying supertrain. Momofuku’s trademark crisis. Nutrition Labels for the internet.
Japan’s next-gen bullet train uses “magnetic levitation” to coast 4 inches above the track at 300 mph — Japan’s train megaproject reminds us of America’s Fusion Energy project.
Starting this week, internet companies must display “nutritional facts” for the cost and performance of their internet — The same nutrition labels from your Doritos are about to land on Xfinity.
Momofuku, the legendary noodle brand, owns the trademark on “chili crunch” — But asian restaurant entrepreneurs think copyright feels really a copy-wrong.
Plus, Starbucks just acknowledged that its stores are too loud — So it’s turning down the volume so their baristas can hear you.

Great show
Love the show have been following them over the past few years. I do have to agree the ads are getting a bit much but I just skip them.
