Author, podcaster, influencer! Jo Piazza returns to Parenting Is a Joke in the middle of a whirlwind tour for The Parisian Heist, discovering that the greatest luxury of author life isn't glamorous hotels but eating alone at Cracker Barrel, ordering room-service ice cream in a robe, and having nobody ask for a snack or an iPad charger. As Ophira Eisenberg and Jo compare life with a 10-year-old versus a nine-, six-, and three-year-old, they swap stories about a preschooler refusing to wear clothes to a fancy family dinner, settling for "parenting at 60%," and why every ambitious parent needs to stop whispering about having help and start saying it out loud. Their conversation moves easily from raising creative kids—who remake Jurassic Park, shoot stop-motion LEGO dinosaur films, and critique outdated '80s movie jokes—to Jo's meticulous writing process, explaining how she drafts dual timelines straight through before separating and rebuilding them, researches museums across Paris and Amsterdam, and even listens to Gwyneth Paltrow read her manuscript aloud. Along the way they explore the overlooked brilliance of Jo van Gogh, the real mechanics of art heists, why moms might make the best thieves because heists require planning and patience more than action-movie stunts, and how Jo's marriage began with spotting a promising "project" on a reporting trip to the Galápagos. The episode circles back to the small freedoms working parents crave, ending on Jo's perfect solo-tour ritual: eating a chocolate sundae in a hotel robe while watching The Silence of the Lambs instead of discussing tomorrow's family schedule.

What if the real thing holding your restaurant back is your refusal to trust your own taste?Jeremy Lett spent 26 years at Bloomin' Brands building food for Outback, Carrabba's, Fleming's, and Bonefish before taking over innovation at Cracker Barrel, a 650-unit institution he joined right as the brand was weathering its biggest public firestorm in decades.In this conversation, we get into why a great menu grows through subtraction, how to separate a product failing from you failing, and why your taste, earned over thousands of reps, is the one competency no spreadsheet can replace.If you're sitting on a concept people respect but won't repeat, this one will show you where to cut and what to trust.To learn more about his work leading culinary innovation and product development at Cracker Barrel, visit crackerbarrel.com._________________________________________________________Free 5-Day Restaurant Marketing Masterclass – This is a live training where you'll learn the exact campaigns Josh has built and tested in real restaurants to attract new guests, increase visit frequency, and generate sales on demand.

It's another edition of Brands of the Week! Donny runs through the brands rising, falling, and holding steady in the cultural conversation — starting with Netflix's controversial use of Gene Wilder's AI voice for a new Willy Wonka competition series, and Tom Hardy's much-debated return for Mobland Season 3. Plus: Sam's Club dethrones Costco's beloved rotisserie chicken, 7-Eleven turns the Slurpee into a "date destination" for its 60th birthday, and a new study links daily probiotics to improved mood. Donny also breaks down why brisk walking is lowering heart attack risk in women, why Ford brought back 350 veteran engineers after an AI experiment went sideways, and why in-office job seekers are getting hired faster. From an Aurora, Colorado mayor secretly sleeping in homeless shelters to understand his city better, to child-free millennials splurging on luxury dog travel, "bloom scrolling" as the antidote to doom scrolling, seniors embracing their inner Golden Girls, physical books outselling digital media, and Cracker Barrel's full-circle redemption arc — it's a packed week in brand news.

What does a life truly surrendered to Jesus look like? In this powerful message from Philippians 2:19-30, Elder Eric introduces us to two ordinary men — Timothy and Epaphroditus — who changed the world not through fame or talent, but through faithful, Christlike character. From a father seeking healing for his son to a waitress at Cracker Barrel, this message will challenge you to stop just attending church and start being the church. God isn't looking for talented people — He's looking for surrendered ones. #FaithfulServants #PowerfulChurch #Philippians #JesusIsEnough #NeighborhoodChurch #BeTheChurch #HolySpiritPower #ChristlikeCharacter #SurrenderToGod #FaithInAction

Some people grew up in TV families where Dad somehow had enough time to make pancakes, bacon, eggs, fresh-squeezed orange juice, and still iron his shirt before work.The rest of us? We grabbed a Pop-Tart, hoped there was enough milk left for cereal, and tried not to miss the bus.Today's comedy podcast dives headfirst into one of the most unexpectedly heated debates we've ever had: breakfast nostalgia. Did anyone actually grow up eating those sitcom breakfasts? Or were we all surviving on toaster pastries, cereal, and whatever questionable leftovers were sitting in the fridge?Things quickly spiral into an all-out war over biscuits. Moon insists they're basically edible drywall, while everyone else passionately defends the flaky greatness of canned Pillsbury biscuits, Cracker Barrel breakfasts, sausage gravy, and the legendary "hillbilly casserole" that somehow fed an entire family on half a pound of hamburger and a can of cream of mushroom soup. If you've ever eaten a casserole that looked questionable but somehow tasted incredible, this episode is going to unlock some memories.From there, the show somehow becomes even more ridiculous.It's time for another round of "Just the Two of Us," where teammates try to match answers while listeners bet on whether they'll succeed. What follows is 20+ minutes of patriotic nonsense featuring questions about founding fathers, fireworks, National Parks, cookout side dishes, Mount Rushmore, hot dog brands, barbecue foods, NASCAR legends, American landmarks, Fourth of July fruit, and one unforgettable moment where Tom Petty accidentally replaces Richard Petty.There are shocking answer matches, spectacular misses, questionable logic, accidental comedy gold, and several moments where everyone wonders if they've completely lost their minds. As usual, the game becomes less about winning and more about roasting each other for the answers.If you love nostalgia, weird family food traditions, hilarious debates over things that absolutely shouldn't matter, and a cast that's somehow both competitive and completely unqualified, this episode delivers exactly the kind of beautiful chaos you'd expect.Thanks for listening to another comedy podcast from The Rizzuto Show.

The gang kicks things off getting ready for the Fourth of July weekend, comparing travel plans, arguing over pools, hot tubs, hiking, and why nobody should ever trust someone who voluntarily hikes next to a 600-foot waterfall. Naturally, that somehow leads to discussions about bears, road trips, national parks, and exactly how everyone would prefer not to die.The crew breaks down how quickly tempers can spiral, why everyone needs to calm down behind the wheel, and how modern technology is changing criminal investigations in ways that are both fascinating and a little unsettling.a banquet hall fight that apparently started because somebody couldn't be bothered to use serving utensils for the meatballs. Yes... meatballs. What follows is an unforgettable conversation that somehow turns into a full-blown celebration of every meatball reference The Rizzuto Show has ever made over the years.we also debate fireworks injuries, Fourth of July travel, teenage curfews downtown, Kenny Loggins' travel habits, bottle rocket wars from childhood, and whether Roman candles were ever intended to be used responsibly weird news, celebrity randomness, listener-worthy tangents, and the completely unpredictable chemistry that makes The Rizzuto Show what it is. If you're looking for a funny podcast that never follows a script and somehow makes explosive diarrhea educational, congratulations—you've found it.Would you marry yourself?No seriously... knowing everything you know about yourself. Every annoying habit. Every irrational rant. Every weird obsession. Every story your spouse politely pretends isn't embarrassing anymore.Rizz is convinced he'd make the perfect husband. Rafe isn't sure he'd even date himself. Moon starts questioning his own parenting. Lern accidentally turns the conversation into a therapy session. King Scott somehow makes everything wholesome... until everyone starts imagining what their kids would be like if they brought home younger versions of themselves.Would you have been friends with your own kids in high school?Would your future son-in-law survive meeting Rizz?How much spaghetti is too much spaghetti?We also celebrate some incredible "Back in the Day" moments, including the infamous Guns N' Roses Riverport riot, Steve Winwood unknowingly blessing St. Louis history, Michael Jackson making chart history, and one of the wildest sports tragedies ever.Plus, celebrity gossip goes completely off the rails:• Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce wedding conspiracy theories• Alan Jackson's emotional farewell concert• Weird Al turning down AI money• And somehow Clive Owen accidentally becomes Tom Hanks.Today's comedy podcast dives headfirst into one of the most unexpectedly heated debates we've ever had: breakfast nostalgia.

0:00 - Jalen Bruson took a $100 million dollar pay cut a few years ago so the Knicks had more money to sign good depth pieces. ONE HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS. Well, his gamble paid off. His wallet's a little lighter, but he's forever a legend in New York City. 16:21 - To run it back or not to run it back? That is the question. Should the Golden Knights run it back with Torts as their head coach? The Avs are essentially running it back with the same team, Bedsie included. Look at how long Carolina stuck with Rod Brind'Amour! But what about the Nuggets. If they literally can't afford to run it back, what should they do with the roster?32:58 - People from every corner of the globe are flocking to the US for the World Cup. And these Europeans are having their eyes opened to the glorious world of things like Buc-ee's, Cracker Barrel, and Taco Bell. It's been so fun seeing all these tourists on social media documenting the gems they've found in America. 

On this week's Extra Serving, NRN editor in chief Sam Oches and executive editor Alicia Kelso discuss the latest restaurant industry news, including Cracker Barrel's newfound momentum, KFC's ongoing revitalization, and a menu innovation boom across the industry. First up is Cracker Barrel, which is continuing in its comeback after last year's controversial rebrand derailed growth. In its most recent quarter, Cracker Barrel experienced a same-store sales decline of 2.6% and traffic decline of 6.7% — not great, but better than expected and enough for the company to raise its guidance for the year. Sam and Alicia discuss why this is good news for Cracker Barrel and how CEO Julie Felss Masino has made the right moves to get this brand back on track. Next they tackle KFC, which has experienced three consecutive quarters of same-store sales growth after seven straight negative quarters. KFC's U.S. president Catherine Tan-Gillespie spoke with Alicia about the keys to that reversal, and Alicia shares those details on the pod, plus she and Sam talk about how KFC is competing within an ever-more-competitive chicken category. Then they shift attention to menu innovation across the restaurant industry, which has recently seen a lot of brands expand into new menu platforms — for example, Freddy's bowl introduction, Sweetgreen's wraps, and Crisp & Green's sandwiches. Sam and Alicia talk about how these new menu introductions could help chains, and they discuss beef prices in particular, which could climb higher with rise of the flesh-eating screwworm. Finally, we share an interview between senior food and beverage editor Bret Thorn and Culver's head of culinary, Kasey McDonald.For more on these stories:Cracker Barrel says recovery from logo fallout is ahead of scheduleKFC brings its Supergirl collaboration on the roadCarbs be damned, Crisp & Green is adding sandwiches

Customers are coming back to Cracker Barrel faster than expected. Pizza Hut may be losing share to a surprising competitor. And The Habit Burger & Grill is jumping into the competitive wraps category.

Here we go with another full 5-day work week. This is some BS. Got a bit of rain during the overnight with more on the way later this week. Save me some money on my water bill. On the show today, being that it's the first day of June, we hooked you up with a list of things to look forward to in the new month…including movies, TV shows, sporting events, and "holidays". Also took a look at a list of the most misspelled words in every state. In the news this mornings, an "influencer" gets banned from Cedar Point after trying to eat food while on a ride, a United flight had to turn around & return to the airport after some kid named his Bluetooth device "bomb", another United flight had to divert to Madison after a passenger became unruly, a recall on a fabric dresser sold at Walmart, and a teen girl stabbed a bunch of horses at a barrel racing event in Las Vegas. In sports, the Brewers beat the Astros yesterday to take 2 out of 3 from Houston over the weekend, a look at the NHL & NBA Finals which both begin this week, Denny Hamlin wins at the Cracker Barrel 400 in Nashville yesterday, and a Blue Jays outfielder gets injured in a very strange way. We talked about what's on TV today/tonight and Brian recapped the new movie "Backrooms"…which set a record over the weekend. Plus, a Love Island cast member gets kicked off the show right before the premiere of the new season. Elsewhere in sports, the family of the late Claude Lemieux is donating his brain for CTE research, the latest on Brendan Sorsby, and a Reds reporter tries the new Skyline chili egg roll at the ballpark. Would you let a tech company clean your house for free so they could use the data to train robots? And in today's edition of "Bad News with Happy Music", we had stories about a #FloridaMan who had his "chimichanga" out in the parking lot of a Taco Bell, an 83 year-old woman who got attacked by a bunch of wild turkeys, an HOA president in #Florida who got arrested for assaulting a 12 year-old boy, & a #FloridaTeacher who was masturbating in the classroom.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What's the news today? MAGA, baby. Reporting on MAGA wins right now is like being a Phoenix weatherman. “Tomorrow's forecast? Sunny, 112 degrees, Democrats spontaneously combusting by noon.” There's no suspense anymore. Even the panic has become routine. We are winning all over the place. Somebody needs to create a MAGA Tracker. Like NORAD tracking Santa Claus on Christmas Eve. Little blinking lights moving across the country: Trump endorsement flips district… another DEI office closes… illegal immigrant self-deports… MSNBC host bursts into tears… It's Christmas every day if you're a conservative. Democrats wake up each morning like kids discovering Santa left them an invoice.And speaking of things people are trying to hide under the tree skirt, Joe Biden apparently doesn't want America learning just how cooked his brain was while he occupied the Oval Office. Isn't that amazing? We spent four years watching this man wander around stages like he was looking for the men's room at a Cracker Barrel, and now suddenly they want privacy. Privacy? The real scandal isn't that Biden struggled mentally. Aging happens. The scandal is that an entire political machine, media included, looked Americans dead in the eye and said, “No, no, this is fine. He's sharp as a tack.” Sharp as a tack? If Biden were your Uber driver, you'd jump out at the first red light.And here's the part they never want discussed: if unelected staffers, handlers, and bureaucrats were effectively running the country while pretending Biden was fully in charge, what exactly do we call that? Democracy?More like, Weekend at Bernie's: Executive Branch Edition?Meanwhile, Republicans have finally figured out something Trump understood from the beginning: politics isn't golf. You don't politely clap for the other side while they try to destroy you. Trump reshaped the Republican Party because he proved that voters were starving for somebody who would actually fight instead of issuing strongly worded bookmarks.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The Good GameFormer Google CEO Eric Schmidt booed by graduates at mention of AI And yet: College students are booing commencement speakers celebrating AI, but the wave of hate hasn't stopped them from using it to cheat on their examsElon Musk loses court battle against Sam Altman and OpenAI after 3-week trialA federal jury in Oakland, California, on Monday said Elon Musk waited too long to sue OpenAI and its CEO Sam Altman over claims they allegedly violated an agreement to run their artificial intelligence venture strictly as a charitable nonprofit.The advisory jury's verdict, which came after less than two hours of deliberations, was immediately adopted by District Court Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers.In a post on his social network X, Musk called the decision a “calendar technicality … There is no question to anyone following the case in detail that Altman & Brockman did in fact enrich themselves by stealing a charity. The only question is WHEN they did it!”And yet: Jury Throws Out Musk's OpenAI Lawsuit in Under Two Hours, Clearing Path for Sam Altman's IPOPope Leo launches an AI commission days before he releases a papal letter alongside Anthropic cofounder Christopher OlahThe Vatican is treating AI as a core moral issue, not a side topic.Pope Leo is moving fast: a new AI commission lands just before his first major AI-focused encyclical.The message is clearly human-centered: dignity, justice, labor, and protection of people come first.Bringing in Anthropic cofounder Christopher Olah signals the Church wants direct dialogue with top AI builders, not just criticism from the sidelines.This looks like an attempt to shape AI norms early, before the technology's social impact hardens into policy and cultureThe AI economy is rewriting the American Dream — and blue-collar workers are poised to winThe rapid spread of AI across corporate America is creating a crisis for young adults with college degrees who are finding a slowdown in hiring for entry-level positions in AI-exposed industries.And yet: Don't hold your breath for the great AI job reshuffle, says Goldman Sachs—there's little evidence of ‘too many coders and not enough plumbers'And yet: Despite degrees being slammed as ‘useless' by Gen Z, data shows graduates have had the lowest unemployment rate of anyone for the last 20 yearsDSE, IFC host 'women on boards' session to strengthen female corporate leadershipDhaka Stock Exchange (DSE) PLC and International Finance Corporation (IFC) jointly organized an on-boarding session titled "Women on Boards (WOB)" aimed at enhancing women's participation in corporate leadership and decision-making processes.Starbucks Korea sacks CEO over controversial 'Tank Day' promotionStarbucks Korea thought it would be a brilliant idea to promote their new "Tank" line of coffee tumblers by declaring a special marketing event called "Tank Day." The catastrophic oversight? They launched it on May 18—the highly sensitive national anniversary of the 1980 Gwangju Democratic Uprising. For South Koreans, the word "tank" on this specific day immediately evokes the horrific memory of the military dictatorship deploying actual armored tanks to brutally crush and massacre pro-democracy protestersThe promotion featured the tagline: "put it on the table with a sound of 'Tak!'" (or "thwack on the desk"). In South Korea, "Tak!" is chillingly famous. In 1987, when the military regime tried to cover up the torture-induced death of student activist Park Jong-chul, police absurdly claimed the student just suddenly collapsed and died because an investigator struck a desk, making a "tak" soundSon Jung-hyun (Sohn Jeong-hyun), the CEO of Starbucks Korea, was summarily fired within hours of the campaign going livethe retail conglomerate that operates Starbucks Korea (Shinsegae Group) also fired the unnamed executive who planned and oversaw the campaign, while launching disciplinary proceedings against every other employee who let this pass the review stage.Shinsegae Group Chairman Chung Yong-jin was reportedly "furious" and ordered the immediate sacking of the CEO to "make an example."South Korean President Lee Jae Myung them as "low-class peddlers" engaging in "inhumane, bottom-feeding behavior" that mocked a blood-stained struggle for basic human rightsStarbucks US headquarters reportedly apologized as well, saying it deeply regretted the “unacceptable” marketing incidentBYD surges, Toyota falters as oil crisis boosts EVs in Australia AND Gas prices are rising.
