Podcasts about convenience stores

Convenience stores looking to monetize their digital platforms have a new opportunity in post-transaction advertising, according to Jon Nolz, CEO and co-founder of MomentScience.Speaking on CSP's "At Your Convenience" podcast in May at the RMN Forum in Chicago, Knowles explained how c-store operators can generate revenue by displaying targeted offers immediately after customers complete purchases through delivery, order-ahead or pickup apps."It's the moment that really matters where you have people with their wallet out after they make that payment," Nolz said. "Why not get a free trial?"The technology integrates into existing systems through simple API or SDK implementations, with some partners completing setup in under an hour. Nolz emphasized balancing monetization with customer experience, recommending retailers maintain control over which ads appear rather than simply maximizing revenue.While many c-store chains lack dedicated retail media personnel, Nolz sees significant potential as digital ordering continues growing. Non-competitive offers like streaming service trials or loyalty program sign-ups work particularly well in the post-transaction moment, he said.

Apply Noriko's A Supportive, One-to-One Program Let's Read a Japanese Novel Together In this episode, I explore コンビニ人間Convenience Store Woman by Sayaka Murata, focusing on the concept of “normality” in society. I reflect on how the protagonist, Keiko, struggles with being perceived as different from childhood and gradually learns to imitate others in order to fit in. I also discuss how her job at a convenience store provides her with structure and a sense of belonging through clear rules and manuals.As Keiko reaches her 30s, I explain how societal expectations intensify—questions about marriage, relationships, and career stability become unavoidable. I point out that these pressures are not unique to Japan, but can be found globally. Through this story, I raise an important question: can “normal” and “abnormal” truly be separated, or are they subjective and constantly shifting concepts?I also highlight the contrast between Keiko and another character, Shiraha, who is also marginalised but in a different way. By comparing them, I show how the novel deepens its critique of societal norms.Ultimately, I encourage listeners to reflect on personal happiness, social conformity, and the pressures created by cultural expectations. I emphasise that the discomfort we feel in life may not only come from ourselves, but also from society.

Step into Episode 210 of On The Delo as Delo sits down with Mark Miller, a five-decade veteran of Arizona's beverage and food industry, whose career took him from delivering beer on a Hensley truck in 1978 to serving as VP of Sales for the state's largest Anheuser-Busch wholesaler, leading the Arizona Food Marketing Alliance (AFMA), and now heading BACIC Arizona — the industry-backed organization dedicated to reducing underage drinking across the state. If you're in hospitality, food retail, distribution, or simply want an insider's look at how the food and beverage world really works, this episode is packed with perspective you won't find anywhere else.Mark breaks down how the Arizona beverage landscape evolved from a handful of brands and no light beer to craft explosions, hard seltzers, THC beverages, and the booming non-alcoholic movement — and how consumer behavior, dram shop laws, and lower BAC limits quietly reshaped where and how people drink. He unpacks the three-tier distribution system from the ground up, explains why consolidation among distributors is accelerating, and gives local Arizona food and beverage brands the honest roadmap for getting their products onto grocery shelves, into restaurants, and in front of the right distributors. You'll also hear about BACIC Arizona's newest initiative — funding alcohol-free prom and graduation parties for high school students across the state with $10,000 in grants awarded to schools through organizations like Chicanos Por La Causa.Chapter Guide (Timestamps):(0:00 - 1:41) Episode 210 Intro, Toilet Paper Roll Theory & Mark's Origin Story(1:42 - 4:33) Iowa Farm Roots, Hensley Beverage, Copper Mines & Coming Home to Phoenix(4:34 - 8:41) Beer Evolution: Light Beer, Craft, Seltzers & What Gen Z Is Drinking Now(8:42 - 12:22) THC Beverages, the Three-Tier System & How Prohibition Shaped Today's Laws(12:23 - 17:39) Dram Shop, Liquor Liability, Drunk Driving, Uber & Distributor Consolidation(17:40 - 22:09) AFMA, Food Supply Chain & Lobbying for Online Grocery Delivery Before COVID(22:10 - 25:11) Taxation Battles, Tips Policy & Defending the Food Industry at the Legislature(25:12 - 30:39) Local Brand Playbook: Brokers, Shelf Space, SEO, Siete & Tito's Success Stories(30:40 - 36:28) BACIC Arizona: Underage Drinking Prevention, $10K School Grants & Prom Parties(36:29 - 42:07) Giving Back, Non-Negotiables & Rapid Fire: Golf, Fine Dining & Convenience Stores(42:08 - 43:26) Delo's Close, BACIC Arizona Resource & Bar and Restaurant Insurance Shoutout

I can't remember the last time a novel evoked such strong--and opposing!--reactions. This 2018 novella appealed back then but my re-reading was even more satisfying. Listen in to hear the many ways Murata is a master of satire. Maybe more interestingly, take a fascinating look at sexuality in the novel via two other Murata essays.

Robbing a Convenience Store To Fuel An Addiction with Corey Warren | The Hopeaholics PodcastIn this episode of the Hopeaholics Podcast, Corey Warren shares his powerful and deeply personal story of addiction, crime, alcohol abuse, and recovery, opening up about growing up around alcoholism, seeking validation through drugs and reckless behavior, and eventually spiraling into heroin, armed robbery, and severe alcohol addiction that nearly cost him his life. Corey talks about waking up drinking vodka, experiencing alcohol-induced seizures, facing prison time, and the moment he realized that the real problem wasn't the substances but the mindset and pain driving his behavior. He reflects on rehab, AA, faith, fatherhood, marriage, and building a new life centered on purpose, honesty, and helping others, while also discussing the pressures of social media, breaking generational cycles, and teaching his kids a different path. This episode is a raw and honest conversation about accountability, redemption, and the daily work required to stay sober, showing that no matter how far someone falls, recovery, faith, and hope can still rebuild a life.Check out his FREE Sobriety Masterclass here:https://www.coreywarren.com/#thehopeaholics  #redemption #recovery #AlcoholAddiction #AddictionRecovery #wedorecover #SobrietyJourney #MyStory #Hope #wedorecover #treatmentcenter #natalieevamarieJoin our patreon to get access to an EXTRA EPISODE every week of ‘Off the Record', exclusive content, a thriving recovery community, and opportunities to be featured on the podcast. https://patreon.com/TheHopeaholics Go to www.Wolfpak.com today and support our sponsors.

“If you're going to rob a convenience store, don't forget the candy bar.” That's the quirky title of the latest episode of The Woman Inspired Podcast. Matthew 26:41 reminds us to pray so that we don't enter into temptation.

Psychiatrist, internist, and addiction medicine specialist Muhamad Aly Rifai discusses his article "Unregulated botanical products: the hidden risks of convenience store supplements." Muhamad explores the dangerous misconception that "natural" equals safe, revealing how consumers unknowingly ingest substances with opioid-like effects sold as wellness products. He highlights the conflict between Americans' fear of addiction and their trust in sleek, unregulated marketing that promises relief without consequences. The conversation examines the regulatory mixed signals and the critical need for clinicians to screen for these products during visits. Muhamad advocates for intellectual honesty in medicine and clearer governance to protect families from the spiral of dependence. Discover why addiction often walks through a "wellness" door and how to spot the risks before it is too late. Partner with me on the KevinMD platform.

I'm joined this week by Heather Lalley, the managing editor for Restaurant Business as well as sister publications CSP Daily News and Supermarket News.We talk about how convenience stores are pushing into more prepared food options, including ways they are taking pages out of restaurants' playbook.We also discuss the growing demand for THC beverages, and why we haven't seen many restaurants add these to their beverage menus.But we talk extensively about the closures of Amazon's Fresh and Go stores, and what kinds of lessons restaurants can take from those closures. We're looking at the retail sector on A Deeper Dive, so check it out.

Shahan Ohanessian, co-founder & CEO of VenHub (VHUB), is roboticizing convenience stores. The company just debuted on the Nasdaq on Wednesday in a direct listing. “No staff, no employees,” all driven by AI, Shahan explains, calling it frictionless and autonomous. He discusses their theft resistance, including bulletproof glass, as well as their plans to expand, with preorders in the “hundreds of millions” of dollars. “We're sprinting” right now, Shahan says, aiming for VenHub to become the “store of everything” within the decade.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

From Astro Boy to Gundam to real-world robots like ASIMO and Pepper, Japan's fascination with robots runs deep. This week, the Krewe is joined by author, cultural commentator, & robot enthusiast Matt Alt to explore how robots became heroes instead of threats in Japanese pop culture and how those sci-fi dreams quietly shaped Japan's modern relationship with technology, AI, and everyday automation. From giant mecha and cyborg icons to robot cafés and beyond, we dig into why Japan seems so comfortable living alongside machines in an episode that's equal parts nostalgia, culture, and future tech.------ About the Krewe ------The Krewe of Japan Podcast is a weekly episodic podcast sponsored by the Japan Society of New Orleans.
