The episode begins with a deep dive into the latest retail and economic headlines that are shaping the landscape. Steve and Michael dissect the U.S. government shutdown, its ripple effects on employment, and how cost-cutting in Washington could further weaken an already fragile job market. They then examine new tariffs on furniture, cabinets, and agricultural exports, highlighting how the policies are squeezing retailers and farmers alike—particularly soybean producers, who have been hit hard by China's retaliation.The hosts also analyze the latest on TikTok's uncertain U.S. future, as political maneuvering opens the door to a controversial joint venture involving major tech and media figures. In retail performance, Costco's continued dominance and Nike's early turnaround efforts take center stage, as both giants adapt to shifting consumer sentiment and inflationary pressure. The segment concludes with a discussion of AI's growing impact on the workplace, holiday hiring trends, and how discretionary spending and de minimis trade rules could redefine retail economics on both sides of the border.Then, in a wide-ranging interview, David Kahan, President & CEO Birkenstock Americas delivers a masterclass in brand stewardship and retail strategy. He traces Birkenstock's roots from a humble German cobbler to a global fashion phenomenon—revealing how the brand's success rests on “never deviating from its DNA.” Every product begins with the footbed, he says, making comfort, health, and purpose inseparable from style.Kahan credits Birkenstock's ongoing cultural resonance—from the Barbie movie to red carpet collaborations—to disciplined brand management and “engineered distribution.” He explains how each Birkenstock store is a unique community experience, blending tactile engagement with hyper-local curation. The conversation also touches on leadership philosophy, emphasizing humility, trust, and an unwavering focus on brand equity over short-term sales.

Brief DescriptionWhy do some people always seem “lucky” while others miss out? In this episode, AJ and Johnny sit down with Wharton economics professor Judd Kessler, author of Lucky by Design, to reveal the hidden rules that govern life's most important markets—from dating to job hunting to Taylor Swift tickets. These “choose me” markets don't run on money alone; they run on signals, timing, and strategy. You'll learn why signaling interest often beats being perfect, how “settling for silver” can land you gold, and why gaming the system sometimes backfires. Judd breaks down strategies for college admissions, career opportunities, dating apps, and even Costco parking lots. Whether you're chasing a dream job, trying to stand out in dating, or just fighting bots for concert tickets, this conversation shows you how to design your own luck. What to Listen For [00:01:04] What it means to be “lucky by design” and why hidden markets matter [00:02:11] Taylor Swift tickets, hot restaurants, and how hidden rules decide who wins [00:05:15] “Choose me” markets—jobs, schools, and dating—where the other side decides [00:07:29] The two signals that matter most: competence and real interest [00:10:22] Johnny's story of breaking into bands through excitement and persistence [00:13:24] Why idiosyncratic (weird) signals often work better than safe ones [00:19:39] Costly signals—when to use them, and when they're wasted [00:21:41] The strategy of “settling for silver” to actually win [00:27:05] When gaming the system works—and when it backfires [00:29:53] Designing your inbox and attention like a market [00:35:20] How a strong plan B lets you go for gold [00:37:38] Costco parking lots as the perfect example of hidden strategy [00:47:17] Hidden markets at home: sharing chores and mental load with equity [00:55:05] Why ticket resale markets frustrate Judd—and how he wants to fix them A Word From Our Sponsors Stop being over looked and unlock your X-Factor today at unlockyourxfactor.com The very qualities that make you exceptional in your field are working against you socially.

Nancy Levine Stearns, founder of ImpactDevise, a nonprofit journalism project, discusses the corporate response to the DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion) backlash. Stearns' project covers DEI initiatives in the private sector, and her reporting on corporate social responsibility has been cited by publications like The New York Times, NBC News, and Forbes. Stearns, a former executive recruiter, began focusing on the DEI space after the "heated" backlash following a recent election. She was initially intrigued by a story about Costco taking a public stance on DEI. This led her to discover that other companies were also standing firm on their commitments. Key Findings from Impactivize Corporate Commitment: Stearns and Impactivise track approximately 400 companies, including publicly traded, private, and large nonprofit organizations, that have made public commitments to DEI. A recent audit found that only two of these companies have completely removed their DEI statements. Stearns believes that a stated commitment is a bold and courageous decision, as it can make a company a target for anti-DEI groups. Shareholder Support: Stearns reports that in 2025, 30 anti-DEI proposals were put forth for shareholder voting at various corporations. Shareholders overwhelmingly rejected these proposals, typically by a margin of 98% to 99% of voting shares. Stearns notes that while shareholder rejection of outside proposals is common, the overwhelming margin of these votes is unusual. The Business Imperative: Stearns states that the primary reason companies are maintaining their DEI initiatives is because they recognize it as a "strategic imperative" and a "business imperative". She cites a statement from Rob Davis, the CEO of Merck, who called diversity and inclusion a strategic imperative. Stearns emphasizes that the data and metrics show that these initiatives positively impact a company's performance and bottom line. Shifting Language: Stearns acknowledges that some companies are changing the language they use to describe their initiatives, perhaps using terms like "belonging and inclusion" or "culture and engagement". However, she notes that adversarial groups, such as the Heritage Foundation, are aware of this change in terminology and still view these efforts as DEI. Consumer Influence: Stearns believes that consumers, particularly younger generations, are a powerful force in this movement. She suggests that consumers are "voting with their wallet" and supporting companies that have strong DEI commitments. This consumer support provides a "strength in numbers" for corporations, reinforcing their commitment. Stearns argues that while the media often focuses on the narrative that DEI is "dead," the data show that it is very much alive and supported by both corporations and consumers. She maintains that the business case for diversity and inclusion is a powerful and objective force, stating, "It's not political, it's not ideological, it's not personal, it's just, it's just business".

We know what you're thinking: how different could two of the same wines from different vintages taste really?!? We're here to tell you, they were vastly different. Not even close. This week, we put Costco Kirkland Signature head to head with itself. Same wine: Kirkland Signature Chianti Classico Riserva, but different vintages - 2020 vs. 2022 - and two different producers. And hands down one was a winner. We expected it to be closer, but it just wasn't. We also dig into what the different designations of Chianti mean - Chianti vs. Classico vs. Riserva vs. Gran Selezione. And we talk about why Chianti can be a bit of a polarizing wine. We also dared to try the Trader Joe's Pumpkin Spice Chardonnay. There is only one way to describe it, and it rhymes with ducking spitty. You'll definitely want to hear our reaction on that one.

This segment from the Omni Talk Retail Fast Five, sponsored by the A&M Consumer and Retail Group, Mirakl, Ocampo Capital, Infios, and Quorso, analyzes early data from Costco's executive membership early access hours. Since implementing the extra hour of shopping from 9-10am, Placer AI data shows visits are shifting earlier, trips are becoming more efficient (30-45 minutes vs 45-60 minutes), and congestion during peak hours has decreased. Anne argues this transforms Costco from a once-a-week stock-up trip into a quick daily errand destination for millennials and young families, while Chris calls it a masterclass in operations management. With no additional staff required and executive members willing to pay for the perk, is this one of the smartest retail moves of 2025? Could this become the airport lounge problem where everyone upgrades? Chris and Anne break down the implications.

On today's podcast we mark the upcoming 3rd anniversary of the October 7 massacres. This was Israel's darkest day, where 1,200 innocent men, women and children were murdered, and hundreds were taken hostage. And do we have a peace deal? Phelim has a particular insight into the end of war (having lived and worked through one in Northern Ireland) and you can read his thoughts on the Trump/Netanyahu proposals through the link below.*****************************************************To Donate.Projects You Need to Check Out. To read Phelim's story about the Trump/Netanyahu peace proposals click here.Ann & Phelim SocialsPhelim's X: (https://x.com/PhelimMcAleer)Ann's X: (https://x.com/annmcelhinney)USS SocialsInsta: (https://www.instagram.com/unreportedstorysociety/)Facebook: (https://www.facebook.com/TheAPScoop/)X: (https://x.com/AP_Unreported)Click here to learn more about OCTOBER 7 the play. *****************************************************As you know we went to Israel after Oct 7 to interview those who survived the day. We produced the OCTOBER 7 verbatim play which has been off-Broadway and in UCLA, Princeton and Bowdoin College, Maine. It is an amazing drama that brings the truth about Israel to those who need to see it. Watch this week's show where we bring you a newly released excerpt of our OCTOBER 7 play. It's the story of a true hero who rescued almost a hundred people that day.And other people are marking October 7 differently and encountering a few difficulties. There is a fake aid flotilla sailing towards Gaza hoping to get lots of social media likes by sailing into a war zone and provoking the Israeli government to take action against them. But all is not well on the good ship Virtue Signalling. It seems Queers for Palestine's biggest enemies are actually in Palestine. Watch this week's episode and see Quierdos for Palestine experiencing homophobia from the people you most expect! And talking of Israel haters- we bring you the latest news of the ultimate humiliation for Iranian diplomats. And it involves our favorite shop - COSTCO. And taking Tylenol during pregnancy was bad until Trump said it was bad… and now it's good. This week Phelim investigates the amount of harm Leftists will do to themselves to show Trump who's boss.And where are the outraged Hollywood leftists when it's discovered that a gay couple in a popular indie film were erased before the film was released in China? Too busy protesting Trump, I suppose, to not to notice that they are the biggest censors in the industry.And it is a far far better thing I do than I have ever done. The sacrifices Phelim makes for you people. He reviewed Kamala Harris's book on her “brave” election campaign - and it is actually worse than you might think. Watch this week's episode to find how much worse.Please keep sharing your stories with us and leaving comments, we may read them on the show.

Inside Bryan Kohberger's Murder-Morning Shopping Trip & What the Survivors Endured Two threads. One killer. And a behavioral trail that doesn't lie. In this combined breakdown, I'm joined by Robin Dreeke to walk through two critical pieces of the Kohberger case: The post-murder shopping footage, where Kohberger casually walks the aisles at Costco and the grocery store—mere hours after the murders. The survivor interviews, where Dylan Mortensen and Bethany Funke describe confusion, fear, and sensory chaos inside the house that night. This isn't about internet drama. It's about how behavior—on both ends—tells the story. We look at how Kohberger re-entered public space like nothing had happened. Robin explains what the FBI looks for in footage like this: timing, movement, risk exposure, behavioral regulation. Then we shift to the interviews—two young women surviving something unspeakable. We walk through what they said, why they said it the way they did, and why the people attacking them online are dead wrong. This segment is about evidence, not ego. About listening, not twisting. About understanding what trauma sounds like—and what performance looks like. Bryan Kohberger is guilty. He's in prison. But the story doesn't end at conviction. These details matter. Because they show us the full anatomy of this case—from the killer's fake calm to the survivors' real fear.
