April 25, 2023 09:00 - 22 minutes - 20.4 MB

Robotaxes have taken over San Francisco’s streets, but the real winner here could be Elon’s Tesla. Before it got disrupted, Bed Bath & Beyond was disrupting with 1 marketing strategy that it went all-in on.

🐡 “Everyone needs a wingman” — Goldfish’s $1B cracker. Spotify’s anti-Spotify plan. Ikea vs. Wayfair.

April 24, 2023 09:00 - 21 minutes - 19.9 MB

The newest Billion-Dollar Brand? It will be Goldfish Crackers… because Goldfish uses “The Wingman Strategy.” We noticed Spotify hasn’t been looking like Spotify so far this year — and that’s ok.

Fox News is paying $787M to end its defamation lawsuit from its 2020 election coverage, so we’re looking at what you can say and what you can’t. Taco Bell just opened the door to its secret food laboratory — And it turns out they have a formula for creativity.

Netflix stock fell 2% because it messed up the live episode of “Love is Blind” — Here’s the 3 things Netflix should do to fix it.

April 17, 2023 09:00 - 20 minutes - 18.5 MB

The Four Seasons’ new perk: Guests can borrow a luxury handbag for a night out, because everything deserves a test drive. Walmart just sold its Bonobos khakis brand for a huge loss, but not because of business — because of psychology.

Baby Shark is the most-watched YouTube video of all time, but now it’s charging money for podcasts — because there’s big $$$ in digital babysitting.

April 12, 2023 09:00 - 20 minutes - 18.5 MB

Actor Ryan Reynolds acquired a Welsh soccer club that’s now winning — The story’s worthy of a documentary (oh wait, there already is one). Tesla’s craziest product yet isn’t cars, cybertrucks, or robots — it’s building sized batteries.

L’Oreal acquired Aesop, the Australian soap and shampoo company, for $2.5B because they sell the most profitable physical thing we’ve ever seen. Levi’s stock dropped 15% in one day last week because when the economy drops, so do your jeans.
