Listen now
Description
Moiz is amped. Ok… So Moiz is always amped, but this time he’s EXTRA amped and ready to ditch the gym to hop on the Ozempic bandwagon. So what if he doesn’t *actually* need it? The boys wonder what happens when millions of Americans stop chowing down on that extra box of Cinnamon Toast Crunch once the Ozempic kicks in— is this the beginning of the end for big snack brands like General Mills and Kellogg’s, or can they find a way to prepare for the impending snackopalypse? Can big box brands deal with the skinny-fication of America? And what the heck is happening with Outdoor Voices? Just when you thought there couldn’t be any more drama with the fledgling company, the troubled athleisure brand managed to finally hit rock bottom. How did the newly bankrupt company handle the firing of its entire staff? Not well. Let’s just say not well. Plus, Nik and Moiz discuss the volatility in Facebook ads affecting the entire market, what to consider when selecting an ad agency, and tell the tale of some rich, really old dude named Nelson Peltz and his erratically alpha share-buying habits.
