🍯 “A Dude made the 1st move?” — Bumble’...

Nick & Jack Studios
About this episode

Bumble is ending its biggest differentiator now that guys can make the 1st move — But Bumble followed the scientific method of launching.

Walmart just launched its own version of Costco’s Kirkland brand — “Bettergoods” is Walmart’s 1st new brand in 20 years and it’s all about the DINK.

And Detroit was stuck in a brutal 70 year Doom Loop, but it’s reversed into a Boom Loop – We tell the story of Detroit’s bankruptcy bounceback.

Plus, Walgreens invented a peelable gummy candy that’s so viral, they’re limiting 1 per customer — Because viral products don’t drive sales, they drive conversations.
