A.M. Edition for July 30. Meta shares fall and Microsoft rallies after the hyperscalers sent very different signals on how they're monetizing their massive AI outlays. Plus, as some people are allowed to return to their homes in southwestern France, WSJ's Ed Ballard says a debate over aging water bombers and the country's readiness ahead of a summer of wildfires is picking up.

P.M. Edition for July 30. The U.S. economy grew just 1.5% last quarter, lower than the previous quarter and falling short of economists' expectations. WSJ economics reporter Harriet Torry explains why the details in the report, particularly around consumer spending, suggest things aren't as bad as the headline number makes it seem. Plus, the buzzy AI-focused hedge fund Situational Awareness, founded by AI whiz kid Leopold Aschenbrenner, sold most of its stock portfolio to investment firm Citadel. We hear from WSJ special writer Greg Zuckerman about why this happened and where the company goes from here. And a big rally in tech companies sent U.S. stocks soaring today. Alex Ossola hosts.

The U.S. energy drink market is a brutal, $28.5 billion battlefield where loyalty between brands and DSD distributors rarely exist. After helping build massive energy drink brands like GHOST, CELSIUS, Alani Nu, and C4, independent beer distributors watched PepsiCo and Keurig Dr Pepper (KDP) strip the volume right off their trucks. Enter Phorm Energy...the powerhouse joint venture between Anheuser-Busch, sports nutrition brand 1st Phorm, and combat sports mogul Dana White. In this video, I'm doing a year-one "heat check" on Phorm Energy. Learn how this unique partnership bypasses traditional beverage startup growing pains, solves the independent distributor loyalty crisis, and leverages a fierce, blue-collar fitness community to challenge the beverage industry's biggest giants. I'll be breaking down the latest retail sales data, compare their trajectory to the previous AB InBev & GHOST Energy joint venture, and reveal the strategic "playbook" needed if they plan to crash the Top 10.
Rafa Flores, Chief Product and Growth Officer of Treasure AI, joins the podcast to talk about his career path from engineering recruiter to “boomerang” leader returning after six years away, and Treasure Data's rebrand to Treasure AI. Flores says the shift is an evolution based on the company's machine-learning and predictive heritage, its technical DNA of using AI internally, and a desire to create a lifestyle-like community brand. He explains Treasure AI Studio, which orchestrates CDP and activation in plain English across web and mobile, enabling faster troubleshooting, campaign deployment, and real-time insights. Flores argues first-party data remains a “goldmine” but must be activated incrementally with governed access; how AI helps answer questions quickly but requires guardrails, discusses fear and overemphasis on speed/cost versus value and predicts growth of “digital workers”. About Treasure AI Treasure AI is the agentic experience platform helping the world's most loved brands finally activate the customer data they already have. Founded in 2011 and backed by SoftBank, the company spent 15 years quietly building the infrastructure behind some of the most recognizable names in retail, automotive, CPG, and financial services — before rebranding in 2026 to reflect what it had always been building toward. Named a Forrester Wave Leader for B2C CDPs, Treasure AI unifies fragmented first-party data into a single living customer profile and puts AI to work on it in real time, on behalf of human marketers who set the strategy and make the calls. The result for brands like Nestlé, AB InBev, Stellantis, and Condé Nast is measurable: millions in recovered media spend, significant revenue generated, and marketing teams that finally get to go home on time. About Rafa Flores Rafa Flores is the Chief Product and Growth Officer at Treasure AI, where he leads product strategy and growth with a simple conviction: the best technology gives people their time back. A builder by nature and a father of four, Rafa has always believed that progress is personal — that the products worth building are the ones that free someone up to be more present, more creative, and more human. That belief drives everything from how he runs his teams to the unconventional call he made to give away free access to a platform traditionally reserved for Fortune 500 companies, a bet that raised eyebrows and is already showing results. He brings that same bias toward progress to every stage he walks onto.

This week we welcome our first Belgian guest to the show: Belle Dividends (Kim). Kim's story starts almost by accident. In January 2022, after a failed attempt to become a crypto trader, he opened an account with Belgian broker Bolero and bought his first three stocks: AB InBev, Kinepolis and Umicore. A few years and a lot of YouTube and podcast listening later, he now runs a portfolio of 82 positions built around a simple goal: a 3% net dividend yield, even after Belgium's notoriously heavy dividend tax.In this episode Kim walks us through his investing journey, why dividend investing suited his personality more than growth or trading ever did, and how he deals with Belgian withholding tax (spoiler: UK stocks and a Legal & General dividend ETF both play a role). We also get into his interest in African equities, including his top position Helios Towers, plus Airtel Africa and DRC listed Texaf, and why he believes sub Saharan Africa's demographics make it one of the more interesting growth stories out there.Kim also shares the remarkable story of taking over his mother's finances after a dementia diagnosis, and how that led to a rapid, deliberate windfall investment that shaved more than a decade off his path to financial independence. We round things off with his thoughts on oil markets and macro trends, the tax friendly countries he's considering for the future, and a big batch of listener questions on portfolio strategy, UK renewable energy trusts, and more.Also in this episode: Derek and European DGI open with the Trump and FIFA controversy around the USA v Belgium match, and share an update on Greencoat UK Wind ahead of its July investor presentation.Kim's path from a frustrated would be crypto trader to an 82 position dividend portfolioNavigating Belgium's dividend tax and why she targets a 3% net yieldInvesting in Africa: Helios Towers, Airtel Africa and Texaf in the DRCTaking over his mother's finances and investing a large windfall with intentionHis macro view on oil, the Permian basin and the Iran conflictTax friendly countries on her radar for the future: Paraguay, Cyprus and GeorgiaListener questions on allocation strategy, ETFs, and UK renewable energy trusts like Greencoat UK WindWant deeper analysis, ad free episodes and more?

Zomerstilte op de beurs, zo tussen twee kwartalen in. Dus verleggen we de blik naar daar waar er nog wél gestreden wordt: op het voetbalveld! Drie bedrijven die veel baat hebben bij het WK zijn Adidas (officiële FIFA-partner), Nike (dat wel wat extra omzet kan gebruiken) en natuurlijk Heineken, onze eigen bierbrouwer annex keeltjessmeerder. Wat merken zij van het WK - en hoe tijdelijk zijn de effecten? Jim Tehupuring van 1Vermogensbeheer blikt deze aflevering vooruit op de achtste finales van het WK en de impact daarvan op de aandelenmarkt. In Beurs in Zicht stomen we je klaar voor de beursweek die je tegemoet gaat. Want soms zie je door de beursbomen het beursbos niet meer. Dat is verleden tijd! Iedere week vertelt een vriend van de show waar jouw focus moet liggen. Te gast: Jim Tehupuring van 1Vermogensbeheer BNR Beurs is een journalistiek onafhankelijke productie, mede mogelijk gemaakt door Saxo. Over de makers: Jelle Maasbach is presentator van BNR Beurs en freelance financieel journalist. Zijn favoriete aandeel om over te praten is Disney, maar daar lijkt hij de enige in te zijn. Sinds de eerste uitzending van BNR Beurs is 'ie er bij. Maxim van Mil is presentator van BNR Beurs en journalist bij BNR, waar hij zich focust op de financiële markten en ontwikkelingen in de tech-wereld. Je krijgt hem het meest enthousiast als hij kan praten over ASML, of oer-Hollandse bedrijven zoals Ahold of ABN Amro. Jorik Simonides is presentator van BNR Beurs, economieredacteur en verslaggever bij BNR. Hij wordt er vooral blij van als het een keer níet over AI gaat. Je hoort hem ook in de BNR-podcast Moerdijk: dorp van de rekening. Milou Brand is presentator van BNR Beurs, freelance podcastmaker en columnist bij het Financieele Dagblad. Jochem Visser is presentator van BNR Beurs, maakt Beursnerd XL en is redacteur bij de podcast Onder Curatoren. Vraag hem naar obscure zaken op financiële markten en hij vertelt je waarom het eigenlijk nóg leuker is dan je al dacht. Over de podcast: Met BNR Beurs ga je altijd voorbereid de nieuwe beursdag in. We praten je in een kleine 25 minuten bij over alle laatste ontwikkelingen op de handelsvloer. We blijven niet alleen bij de AEX of Wall Street, maar vertellen je ook waar nog meer kansen liggen. En we houden het niet bij de cijfers, maar zoeken ook iedere dag voor je naar duiding van scherpe gasten en experts. Of je nu een ervaren belegger bent of net begint met je eerste stappen op de beurs, de podcast biedt waardevolle inzichten voor je beleggingsstrategie.

This week, we review the pleasantly robust results from global beer companies during the first quarter of 2026. More importantly, we bid adieu to a dear friend and longtime contributor, Francois Sonneville. For those wanting to thank Francois for years of fantastic industry coverage, please reach out: FSonneville@yahoo.co.uk. We discuss individual company results at the following timestamps: Heineken (7:32): Results are stable heading into a leadership transition. AB InBev (15:44): Revenue, volumes, and EBITDA are all well ahead of expectations. RTDs, Michelob, and Busch are filling the gap left by Bud Light. Constellation Brands (24:20): Business is stabilizing following a tough year in 2025. Royal Unibrew (32:22): Despite strong results from a highly diversified business, the headline was the loss of the PepsiCo business in Denmark, Finland, and the Baltic states, which account for nearly one-sixth of company revenue. Carlsberg (38:40): Both volume and revenues grew, with strong performance in the UK as the integration of Britvic goes forward. The headline is the switch from Coca-Cola to PepsiCo in Denmark and Finland and taking on the Baltic states from Royal Unibrew. Molson Coors (48:20): Volume is down, but revenues are flat with improved EBITDA, though costs pressures – aluminum in particular – remain a headache.

Topman Alex Karp van Palantir houdt met hart en ziel van de oorlog die Trump in het Midden-Oosten heeft ontketend. Zijn bedrijf is hofleverancier van software aan het Pentagon, en scoort dus enorme inkomsten ermee. In de Verenigde Staten verdubbelde de omzet zelfs. En volgens Karp zit er nog veel meer in het vat. Die defensie-industrie moet de kern van Palantir worden. En hij voorspelt dat die omzetgroei nog lang zal aanhouden. Maar toch geloven beleggers hem niet en vluchten ze, weg van het aandeel. Waarom? Dat zoeken we in deze aflevering voor je uit. Verder hebben we het ook over luchtigere zaken. We kijken naar de blijdschap onder beleggers van bierbrouwer AB InBev. Het merk achter Stella Artois (het lekkerste pils ter wereld), Corona en Budweiser ziet dat hun bier vooral aanslaat in landen als Brazilië en Zuid-Afrika. Maar, ironisch genoeg, zit de grootste groei juist in alles dat minder met bier te maken heeft. Moet de brouwer zich in de toekomst dan maar op Radler en cocktails in blik gaan focussen? Je hoort ook nog over alweer een rechtszaak met Elon Musk. Of ja, hij weet eronderuit te komen. Dan doelen we op de zaak rondom de overname van Twitter. Musk zou de prijs van het aandeel beïnvloed hebben voorafgaand aan die overname. Maar hij hoeft daar nu maar een fractie van de mogelijke boete voor te betalen. We vertellen je ook nog over Apple, dat ervoor zorgt dat de koers van chipmaker Intel alweer een enorme zet krijgt. En over PayPal, waar beleggers juist minder blij worden. En dat allemaal door één enkele misser bij de kwartaalcijfers.

Adam, Joanna, and Zach are joined by VinePair contributing editor Dave Infante to discuss a spate of news regarding the wholesale sector, from Southern Glazer's expanding ownership of AB InBev distributorships to further moves by Reyes Beverage Group to take over states from Republic National Distributing Company. Does RBG really have interest in becoming a major player in wine distribution? Why does Southern want in on the beer and RTD business? Do we even have antitrust laws anymore?

What does it take to turn innovation from a string of promising pilots into a repeatable growth engine that finance leaders can actually believe in? In this episode of the Innovation Storytellers Show, I sit down with Alice Ponti, Senior Vice President of Innovation and Strategy at VentureFuel, to talk about why so many innovation teams are being restructured, absorbed into the business, or quietly shut down altogether. Drawing on leadership roles at L'Oréal, Diageo, AB InBev, and now at VentureFuel, Alice shares what she has learned about building systems that connect strategy, governance, execution, and adoption to deliver measurable business value. Our conversation examines the growing pressure on innovators to speak the CFO's language and prove their relevance through repeatable, sustainable growth. Alice explains why great ideas alone are never enough, why innovation fails when teams keep reinventing the wheel, and how the strongest organizations build playbooks that can scale across markets, functions, and product categories. She also reflects on the importance of bringing R&D and marketing together early, so technical brilliance can be translated into products people actually want. We discuss AI, and why so many organizations are now repeating the same failure patterns that have haunted corporate innovation for years. Alice offers a sharp view on why most AI pilots stall, what leaders should actually be measuring, and how companies can move faster from experimentation to enterprise adoption. This is a conversation about discipline, storytelling, execution, and the very real opportunity for innovators to reclaim their place by showing how their work drives growth in terms that the wider business can respect. If you care about the future of innovation, the role of AI in scaling ideas, and what it really takes to earn support from the people holding the budget, this episode will give you plenty to think about.

This episode is sponsored by Phaedon.Download their 2026 research paper on Humanizing Loyalty here now.This episode is available in audio format on the Let's Talk Loyalty podcast and in video format on www.Loyalty.TV.In this episode, we explore how beer culture, category dynamics, and customer loyalty have evolved in the decade following AB InBev's acquisition of SABMiller — one of the most significant moments in the global beer industry.Our guest is DeWet Bisschoff. He has spent more than two decades harnessing the power of business strategy, talented people, and disruptive technology. More recently, he has worked alongside AB InBev across markets and brands, with deep exposure to how loyalty, culture, and customer experience operate at global scale.The conversation reflects on how loyalty in the beer category extends beyond products or transactions. It is shaped by heritage, local pride, shared rituals, and everyday moments of connection. As global scale and complexity increase, we explore what it takes to protect these emotional loyalty drivers while evolving operating models and customer engagement behind the scenes.We also discuss how the beer category has changed over the past decade — from digital commerce and personalization to non-alcoholic innovation and more conscious consumption — and what these shifts mean for sustaining relevance and loyalty across generations and geographies.This episode offers a thoughtful perspective on how global brands can evolve without losing the cultural foundations that loyalty is built on.This episode is hosted by Nyeleti.Show Notes:1) DeWet Bisschoff2) Lekker Lees 3) The Beer Monopoly
"Deze reorganisatie is vooral watertrappelen, de winst op peil proberen te houden in een markt die voor hen gewoon moeilijk is", zegt Robbert Manders van het Antaurus Europe Fund. Die reorganisatie werd tegelijk met de jaarcijfers aangekondigd. "In veel markten heeft Heineken een nummer 2 of 3 positie. Ze hebben best veel brouwerijen." AB-Inbev, de grote concurrent brouwt efficiënter in minder, maar grotere brouwerijen. Wim Zwanenburg van Stroeve Lemberger constateert ook: "Het dalende biervolume, dat is het grote probleem, de productiviteit moet worden opgekrikt." Dat dalende biervolume raakt natuurlijk ook AB-Inbev, maar Heineken heeft er meer last van. AB-Inbev profiteert van grotere schaalvoordelen. Bij Unilever gaat het een stuk beter dan bij Heineken. Het bedrijf zag op een aantal fronten de volumes toenemen en het aandeel doet het goed, dit jaar al 12 procent in de plus. Wim Zwanenburg, die in het verleden kritisch was over Unilever, krijgt nu meer waardering voor het bedrijf. Concurrent Nestlé zit in een moeilijke fase, wellicht is dit het Unilevermoment. Verder in de podcast aandacht voor (on)houdbare staatsschuld van Frankrijk, de problemen in de softwaresector en veel cijfers. Zo bespreken we onder anderen Philips en Adyen. Ook de luisteraarsvragen komen aan bod en de experts geven hun tips. Wim geeft een algemene tip, Robbert tipt een Nederlandse financiële instelling en geeft daar een zeer uitgebreide analyse bij.

The team from Beer Business Daily and Beernet Radio offer candid coverage of the tumult and upheaval in the US beer wholesaler business. In this episode, we touch on the following topics: How are big brands (AB InBev, Molson Coors, Constellation Brands) applying pressure differently to their wholesaler networks? What is the outlook for hemp beverages (né marijuana edibles)? Will they be legal in 2027, and are they actual profit drivers for wholesalers? Will wholesalers continue to diversify away from beer? Should this concern the biggest brands in their portfolio? Are wholesalers seeing a clear impact from the Trump administration's immigration crackdown? Should beer wholesalers move more aggressively into wine and spirits? Should those businesses be run separately from their beer business?

Een enorme koersstijging, en daarna pas de reden geven waarom? Verdacht, vindt de Vereniging van Effectenbezitters. Bij pakketkluismaker InPost gebeurt het. Dat heeft een overnamebod in de pakketkluis ontvangen. Maar dat meldt het bedrijf pas nadat beleggers al massaal op het aandeel sprongen. Wie het wil kopen, en voor hoeveel, ook dat vertelt InPost niet. De VEB is niet blij met de gang van zaken en wil opheldering. Wat er aan de hand is, gaan we deze aflevering uitzoeken. Ook hebben we het over hét optreden waar iedereen in Las Vegas op zat te wachten. Daar kreeg Nvidia topman Jensen Huang ruim de tijd om bezoekers en beleggers warm te maken voor wat er in het vat zit. En dat zijn twee verrassingen: de nieuwe generatie chips ligt op dit moment al in de fabriek, en Nvidia zoekt de concurrentie op met Tesla. Je hoort ook of er nog wat te winnen valt voor TomTom. Het afgezakte Nederlandse techbedrijf heeft duidelijk weer wat levenslust teruggevonden. Eerder lieten ze al weten dat ze bezig zijn zich te mengen in de defensie-industrie. En nu staan ze ook trots te zwaaien met een samenwerking met Uber. Te gast: Martine Hafkamp, Fintessa VermogensbeheerSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Business history repeats itself…first as tragedy, second as farce. But for the sake of Cizzle Brands' future, let's hope lessons were learned the first time! While the company is managed as a single operating segment, Cizzle Brands started with a flagship brand CWENCH Hydration. Then, in January 2025…Cizzle Brands launched SPOKEN Nutrition, an NSF Certified for Sport line of athlete-grade sports nutrition products. Next, the company entered the functional foods segment this past September…launching a high-protein product called Sport Pasta under the HappiEats brand. And over the trailing twelve months, Cizzle Brands reported generating revenue of slightly above $10 million. And while most will likely recognize that Cizzle Brands is (at least currently) a much smaller active nutrition company compared to typical categorical competitors highlighted within my content pieces...purely judging the edutainment value of this business story based on the current level of Cizzle Brands revenue generation would undoubtedly show your ignorance surrounding last year's “reverse takeover transaction” examination. Though, beyond the seemingly intentional (yet) eerily similar growth strategies of BioSteel and CWENCH…it's a recent M&A transaction that really has me questioning if we're in some kind of business wash cycle right now! And that's because on Christmas Eve, Cizzle Brands announced that it had completed the acquisition of Flow Beverage for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $61 million. But while John Celenza isn't (technically) purchasing that same company (or even facility) twice, the M&A strategic rationale is quite similar. According to Cizzle Brands, the acquisition secures in-house manufacturing capacity for CWENCH, materially reducing cost of goods sold as volumes scale while improving production control and reliability. Additionally, it's said to strengthen the long-term operating platform…and create meaningful synergies that should materially accelerate its path to profitability. In just about 1.5 years' time, Cizzle Brands' products are available already in close to 6000 multichannel distribution points globally. Additionally, Cizzle Brands recently entered into a distribution agreement with a Canadian subsidiary of Keurig Dr Pepper. Though, for the foreseeable future, demand levels of CWENCH Hydration wouldn't even warrant turning on the lights daily at this approximately 150,000 square foot Tetra Pak manufacturing facility. So, Cizzle Brands NEEDS to ensure its laser focused on how it can better serve current contract manufacturing customers that includes BioSteel or Joyburst. And speaking of the largest co-packing customer of Flow Beverage (aka Cizzle Brands Manufacturing), you probably saw the news by now…but it just sold to Anheuser-Busch in a deal worth more than half a billion dollars! So, if Beatbox Beverages wasn't already large enough (and assumably smart enough) to possess levels of operational buffering…it certainly is now! Consequently, we don't know fully what that could mean for Cizzle Brands Manufacturing yet…but I'd assume M&A due diligence triggered conversations with Beatbox Beverages (and AB InBev) cementing confidence that previous manufacturing agreements would be honored into (I believe) the end of the decade.
Send us a textWe start the show this week reminiscing the days of chasing beers. Brews like KBS, CBS, BCBS (I see a trend here) were hard to come by and disappeared quickly. Now, they sit on shelves getting dusty. Do we have too much good beer?We correct some bad intel we got recently. It seems that Anchor Brewing isn't leaving San Francisco and never intended to. American Craft Beer used AI to create their article and it got some info wrong. Never trust AI.We also heard of the horrible charges against the founder of Sycamore Brewing. Initial a single charge but more has been added. And it looks really, really bad.Note: Sycamore made the Top 3 in our Holiday Beer show. The show was recorded and scheduled for release prior to the news breaking.Irish Stouts seem to be having a moment. First Guinness said they're doing well and now Murphy's said things are going swimmingly. What happened that made these dry stouts have a moment?ABInBev is making some changes. They'll close some breweries and sell others. All about efficiency in a tightening sector.All that American alcohol that Canada decide not to sell? It's stuck in warehouse, taking up space, costing money. Although their reasoning may have made sense it was really more of a shooting yourself in the foot situation. Many provinces have state run liquor boards, so that alcohol was bought with taxpayer money. They should have bought it all up to get that money back in the system. Oh well.In other news... Trashed Panda is the hero we all needed, Kirin is developing beer with AI, and Gen Z is giving up on giving up. Finally.We are off next week for Christmas!Thank you all for riding along with us this year. We'll be back for one more show in 2025 before ringing in the New Year.

Send us a textIn 2025, the beverage alcohol sector saw significant evolution across its regulatory, distribution, and investment landscapes. In this comprehensive Year in Review, Park Street Insider hosts Emmett Strack and Andres Correa sit down to analyze the year's defining moments through three key lenses: top industry news, emerging market trends, and major M&A activity.In this episode, we review the headlines that mattered most, including the implications of RNDC's exit from California, the shifting tariff environment, and notable CEO turnover among major suppliers. We also examine broader structural changes, from the complexities of the THC bill to the increasing migration of suppliers toward beer distributors, and break down the year's investment climate, highlighted by AB InBev's acquisition of Beatbox. We'll explore the practical takeaways from these developments and discuss how they set the stage for the industry in 2026.Mentioned in this episode:Navigating Beverage Alcohol Tariffs: Short-Term Tactics & Long-Term StrategiesHow Nosotros Tequila & Mezcal Navigated the RNDC CA Disruption and Returned to GrowthBeverage Alcohol Tariffs in 2025: Latest Developments & Industry ResponseWant to stay in the know about new episodes from the podcast?

Prebiotic cola, plant-based (and AI-inspired?) pulled chicken and protein-packed marshmallows. The hosts crack open Pepsi's new prebiotic cola and discuss whether a stevia-sweetened "functional" soda can win over classic cola fans. They also dig into Just Meat's big win at Walmart and what it says about the future of meat analogs, and why protein marshmallows might actually work in your next s'more. Show notes: 0:25: Rotten Roaches. The BevNET Bowls. Cloying & Fibrous. Who's Eating This Stuff? S'More, Please. – Jacqui explains why there is a bright red "biohazard" bag on her desk and the hosts joke about modern marketing tactics. They pivot to a preview of the upcoming NOSH Live, BevNET Live and Brewbound Live events, highlighting opportunities for founders to meet retailers, investors, and strategic partners. They sample PepsiCo's newly launched Pepsi Prebiotic – a lower-calorie, stevia-sweetened soda that comes in classic cola and cherry vanilla flavors – and opine on the minimalist white cans and whether Pepsi has clearly communicated the benefits. The hosts then discuss JUST Meat's newly launched plant-based pulled chicken, which is now available in four flavors at 3,000 Walmart stores, which sparks a debate about whether mainstream shoppers truly want meat analogs, and how clean-label concerns are shaping the category. Shifting gears, Ray highlights news that BeatBox Beverages – the colorful, party-forward, wine-based cocktail brand – is rumored to be an acquisition target by AB InBev in a deal reportedly worth around $700 million. Ray introduces Primal Sweets' protein marshmallows, which contain 25 grams of protein per bag and no sugar, and Albero D'oro cocktail cherries, before Jacqui presents Flour + Water's artisanal pasta, and Mike praises Hiyo's new pineapple coconut "social tonic."

Colt 45 is back in a brand-new brown 40oz bottle—but the big question remains: does it still work every time? Bum Wine Bob and Roadhouse break down the taste, the buzz, the nostalgia, and whether the magic is still there. Is the flavor still the same?

We also look at three major themes affecting the beer business in 2025: the dramatic impact of harsh immigration policies on American Latinos, the struggles of European brewers to push costs onto consumers, and the urgency and surprising success of global beer businesses betting big on non-alcoholic beverages.

Adam, Joanna, and Zach react to a trio of stories: first, Michelob Ultra has surpassed Modelo as the best-selling beer (by volume) in the United States - is this just because of tariffs and ICE raids, or has AB InBev hit on a winning message? Then, they explore whether a recent Harris poll about beverage preferences at restaurants says anything new about generational shifts in attitudes towards alcohol. Finally, the trio ponder the sale of LALO Tequila to fellow Austin-based drinks company Fifth Generation: can they replicate their incredible Tito's success with another clear spirit?

In this episode of Tech Talks Daily, I speak with Jane Ostler from Kantar, the world's leading marketing data and analytics company, whose clients include Google, Diageo, AB InBev, Unilever, and Kraft Heinz. Jane brings clarity to a debate often clouded by headlines, explaining why AI should be seen as a creative sparring partner, not a rival. She outlines how Kantar is helping brands balance efficiency with inspiration, and why the best marketing in the years ahead will come from humans and machines working together. We explore Kantar's research into how marketers really feel about AI adoption, uncovering why so many projects stall in pilot phase, and what steps can help teams move from experimentation to execution. Jane also discusses the importance of data quality as the foundation of effective AI, drawing comparisons to the early days of GDPR when oversight and governance first became front of mind. From Coca-Cola's AI-assisted Christmas ads to predictive analytics that help brands allocate budgets with greater confidence, Jane shares examples of where AI is already shaping marketing in ways that might surprise you. She also highlights the importance of cultural nuance in AI-driven campaigns across 90-plus markets, and why transparency, explainability, and human oversight are vital for earning consumer trust. Whether you're a CMO weighing AI strategy, a brand manager experimenting with new tools, or someone curious about how the biggest advertisers are reshaping their playbooks, this conversation with Jane Ostler offers both inspiration and practical guidance. It's about rethinking AI not as the end of creativity, but as the beginning of a new partnership between data, machines, and human imagination.
