🍦 “$18 for a Frosty?” – Wendy’s surge p...

Nick & Jack Studios
About this episode

Inspired by Uber, Wendy’s is adding digital billboards to all locations by 2025 so it can bring Surge Pricing to fast food — How much does a burger cost? Depends on the time of day.

Kroger and Albertsons were about to merge in the biggest deal in grocery history, but the government just sued to block it — Because this year’s election will be decided in the grocery aisle.

And after 10 years of developing a secret iCar, Apple is quitting — But we think Apple already owns your car (we’ll explain).


Intro: Gen Z is making landlines cool again. Because landline phones are liberating.
