This week on I'm Fun Now, Sazan is 15 weeks pregnant and finally feeling out of the first-trimester trenches! She's sharing her wild pregnancy cravings (including her exact Jersey Mike's order), a sweet motherhood update, and whether she felt her first baby kicks… or just gas.

Donna & Steve start the show talking about randomly rearranging furniture, what Meghan Trainor does to help her son with separation anxiety and why AI is now emailing other AI.In hour two, we play the Cindy Crawford edition of the College of Pop Culture Knowledge, Ella Langley's "Choosin' Texas" continues its dominant run on the Billboard charts and have you heard of "jet-setting?"Finally, a study about the phrase "calm down," Steve doesn't like Jersey Mike's and (maybe) we find out the Soup of the Day!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Hey teacher besties, buckle up because this one starts rough. Gerry left me a voicemail after last episode that I simply had to share with all of you, and it involves Jersey Mike's, a very close call, and some deeply unhinged bathroom habits I did not know existed until today. We fully unpack the fact that Gerry takes his shirt off to poop (sometimes his pants too), and then my own kid hops on to side with Gerry and betray me completely. Once we recover from that, we get into some real talk. I rant about a Facebook quote that's been living rent-free in my head (the "if you worry you're a bad teacher, you're actually a good one" nonsense), which spirals into a genuinely great debate with Gerry and Molly about self-awareness, comedians, narcissism, and Principal Lamb's haters. Then Molly brings the hill she's dying on this week: teenagers' out-of-control screen time and caffeine intake, and honestly, it broke my heart a little. We close it out by checking our own screen time live on air, and let's just say we are all a little ashamed (well, maybe not Gerry). 5 Takeaways: Gerry takes his shirt off (and sometimes fully undresses) to use the bathroom, and my own kid apparently agrees with him. Just because you worry about being a good teacher doesn't automatically mean you are one, some people genuinely aren't cut out for it. Principal Lamb's haters say more about themselves than they do about him, and I stand by that. Teens are averaging alarming amounts of caffeine and screen time at night, and it's genuinely hurting their ability to function at school. Content creators' screen time numbers are inflated by actual work, but scrolling is still scrolling, and we all need to check ourselves. -- Knoword is an online tool for creating fun vocabulary games.

On this week's Extra Serving, NRN editor in chief Sam Oches and executive editor Alicia Kelso discuss the latest restaurant industry news, including a flurry of earnings reports that paint a mostly positive picture for restaurants. They kick things off with some encouraging news: Starbucks same-store sales climbed 7.9% in the most recent quarter, including a 4.2% transaction increase, demonstrating real progress in its ongoing turnaround efforts. The coffee giant's results show that CEO Brian Niccol's plan to reinvest in Starbucks as a third place is working, and Sam and Alicia break down what's going right — from operational improvements to food innovation to enhanced customer experience — and how Starbucks can build more momentum in a busy coffee category.They follow that up with a discussion on other restaurant companies that experienced sales growth last quarter, including Chipotle (which posted its best quarter since 2024), Yum Brands (which does not yet factor in the Pizza Hut transaction or cyclospora's effect on Taco Bell), BJ's Restaurant & Brewhouse, and The Cheesecake Factory. Then they break down what's going on at Wingstop, which posted -7.5% sales last quarter, its fifth consecutive quarterly decline.They next turn their attention to Jersey Mike's and its roller coaster IPO journey; the sandwich chain's stock dropped 6% on its first day of trading before rebounding in the following days. Sam and Alicia discuss the market conditions affecting the IPO, what this means for Jersey Mike's future, and what it signals about investor sentiment toward restaurant stocks right now. They then wrap up with a Quick Fire round covering additional industry news and trends, including Panera Bread's HQ move and DoorDash's exploration of drone delivery.

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.

David Faber reports that one of AI's most closely watched voices, Leopold Aschenbrenner's hedge fund Situational Awareness, has sold its entire portfolio of public investments. We examine what the move could signal for AI investors. Plus, Jersey Mike's CEO joins along with Danny DeVito and Eli Manning to discuss the company's public market debut. And we break down Wall Street's reaction to earnings from Microsoft and Meta as investors assess the next phase of the AI trade.   Squawk on the Street Disclaimer Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

One day after the sell-off sparked by Fed Chairman Warsh's comments at his post-Fed rate decision news conference, Carl Quintanilla, Jim Cramer and David Faber explored mega-tech earnings and the AI trade: Microsoft shares soared and Meta shares tumbled in reaction to their respective quarterly results and AI spending guidance. Starbucks CEO Brian Niccol joined the program to discuss higher sales and upbeat guidance that lifted the stock. Arm Holdings CEO Rene Haas spoke about the company's AI-fueled results that boosted the stock. Also in focus: Sources tell David that AI investor Leopold Aschenbrenner's hedge fund unwound all of its public stock positions due to steep losses; Earnings winners and losers; Jersey Mike's goes public.   Squawk on the Street Disclaimer Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

The market is drawing a sharper line between companies that can justify AI spending and companies that still need to prove the payoff.Chuck Zodda and Mike Armstrong break down the very different reactions to Microsoft and Meta earnings, why Microsoft's cloud growth and spending discipline lifted the stock, and why Meta's rising costs and weaker outlook raised fresh concerns about AI investment. They also discuss Kevin Warsh's difficult second Fed meeting, why bond markets are testing his inflation credibility, and what rising long-term yields could mean for borrowers. Plus, they look at the risks of disruptions in global energy shipping, the push to restrict Chinese humanoid robots, the limits of the 4% retirement rule, retail investor losses in Korean AI stocks, Jersey Mike's planned IPO, and why LinkedIn may finally be admitting it has an AI slop problem.

THE RUNDOWN | WEEK OF 7/26Daniel and James are back with The Rundown. This week they cover everything from women taking over the app economy to TikTok building an Amazon Prime rival, Jersey Mike's $8 billion IPO, and Larry Page saying he'd go bankrupt before losing the AI race. They kick off with a compelling case for why vibe coding and built-in influencer distribution mean women are about to dominate the next wave of app builders, then dig into Meta's new Sellers app (not a Shopify killer) and TikTok's inevitable evolution from ads to commerce to payments to logistics.The back half covers why open weight AI models are an openness fight worth having, how Chinese labs are distilling Western AI models the same way TikTok copied Snap, and why a sandwich chain IPO being 10X oversubscribed tells you everything about where real value is being created. They close with Primary Posts — Sean Frank's "can't win if you don't try" ethos (plus a tease of ADSN's new podcast "30 Minutes"), and Ashwin's moat framework that should be required reading: brand, distribution, speed, and cleverness beat product every time.Thank you to our sponsors:AdQuick – Making OOH advertising as easy to plan, buy, and measure as digital. adquick.comThrad.ai — Building the advertising infrastructure for AI. thrad.aibeehiiv — The all-in-one platform for newsletters, websites, and every tool you need to grow and earn. beehiiv.comThe Farm — Fractional commercial legal with an in-house approach to outside counsel. thefarmllp.comSTAY CONNECTEDJames on Twitter & LinkedIn – /jamesborowDaniel on LinkedIn, Instagram, TikTok – /danieldrugerSubscribe & leave a ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ review on Spotify & Apple Podcasts.

Ari discusses the pressure, coping with local recognition, and why she tries not to create for attention alone. She focuses on making content that is useful, engaging, and rooted in curiosity. We talk about the business side of content creation, the importance of valuing her work and her future.

On this episode of the HAYVN Hubcast, Nancy Sheed is joined by Kelly Fitzpatrick, founder and president of Blue Park Restaurants, discussing her journey from working in hospitality to building successful restaurant concepts in New York City. Kelly shares how thoughtful career decisions, strong mentorship, and a willingness to take calculated risks helped her launch Blue Park Kitchen and now expand into franchising with Jersey Mike's and Magnolia Bakery. Key Points Kelly's path into hospitality wasn't driven by a lifelong dream of becoming a chef, but by her love of the restaurant industry and customer service. After studying hospitality at Cornell and culinary arts in Napa, she gained valuable operational experience that prepared her for entrepreneurship. Rather than rushing into business ownership, Kelly spent years learning every aspect of restaurant operations. Working with the founders of Melt Shop gave her firsthand experience opening locations, managing teams, and scaling a fast casual concept. Launching Blue Park Kitchen in New York City required careful planning, mentorship, and persistence. Kelly credits experienced industry mentors and local business development resources with helping her successfully navigate the challenges of opening her first restaurant. The COVID-19 pandemic tested every aspect of the business, but strong landlord relationships, government support, and an exceptional leadership team helped Blue Park Kitchen survive while also creating opportunities for strategic expansion into a second Manhattan location. Recognizing the increasing challenges of competing with large, private equity-backed restaurant chains, Kelly made the strategic decision to diversify her business. She successfully secured franchise rights for Jersey Mike's in Westchester County and the Bronx and is now bringing Magnolia Bakery to Fairfield County, all while maintaining a people-first culture across every brand she leads. Kelly's story demonstrates that lasting business success comes from combining preparation with courage. By investing in experience, surrounding herself with strong mentors, and staying focused on building great teams and company culture, she's created a business that continues to grow through both independent concepts and national franchise partnerships.  Her journey offers valuable lessons for entrepreneurs looking to build sustainable hospitality businesses while remaining adaptable in an ever-changing marketplace.

Mark Hamrick, chief economic analyst at The Hamrick Brief, says that the current affordability crisis has the potential to trigger a recession, if it gets to where there's a slowdown in spending that spills over to impact employment levels. That said, Hamrick says current conditions aren't yet deserving of the label of "economic crisis," even if it feels that way for some individuals and households, effectively the bottom portion of the k-shaped recovery. Still, Hamrick says the remarkable facet of the U.S. economy is that it has been able to avoid recession for this long. Vijay Marolia, chief investment officer at Regal Point Capital, says "Mr. Market is a manic depressive," and is showing those tendencies by getting so excited by positive guidance and potential that the reaction to strong earnings reports has been horrible stock action. He expects that to potentially continue this week, when the focus of earnings season shifts to A.I.-driven companies like Alphabet, Intel and Tesla. Marolia says the market's earnings swings have contributed to an ongoing downturn for tech stocks, though he believes it's more of a buying opportunity than the start of a correction. Plus, with June's inflation reading being partly positive (better than May) mixed with negative (worse than when conflict started with Iran), "Captain Inflation" gives his take on how to best read and cope with the numbers. David Trainer, founder and president at New Constructs, says that while fans may believe Jersey Mike's is "a sub above," the company's initial public offering is a deal from below. While the IPO's launch date hasn't been determined, Trainer says the expected $12 billion valuation is at least double what he thinks the numbers justify, and that the deal — particularly at that level — mostly benefits the private-equity firm that took control of Jersey Mike's in 2025.

Nike says net income jumped 407%. Strip out a single tariff refund and full-year profit actually fell. That gap is the whole week in one number.Rick Watson runs through it: Shopify moving its incentivized-review ban from partner guidelines into hard App Store policy, and deleting reviews tied to fake accounts across listings. Nike's headline quarter and the one-time $986M refund propping it up, with profit down 3% and China still unresolved. Walmart pulling Walmart Connect, Connect International, and Sam's Club Connect into a single ad business built on data from 10,000-plus stores. Target Plus adding Forever 21 and Clarks, chasing K-beauty, and offloading electronics risk while its marketplace grows nearly 60%, though curation may be too small to matter at Target's size. And the Investor Minute: Kroger and Giant Eagle at $1.65B, Jersey Mike's filing to IPO, and The Zero Proof buying The New Bar.Sponsored by Avalara.

Story of the Week (DR):Social Media's 'Big Tobacco Moment': Meta Faces $1.4 Trillion Fine for Allegedly Fueling Teen Suicide and AddictionMeta is being sued by 33 US states, led by California, Colorado, Kentucky, and New Jersey.12 blue/12 red/9 purpleThe states allege that Meta deliberately designed Facebook and Instagram to be addictive to children and teens, fueling a youth mental health crisis (including anxiety, depression, self-harm, and suicide).They also accuse Meta of violating child privacy laws by collecting data from children under 13 without parental consent.Meta warned a federal court that it could face up to $1.4T in penalties if the states prevail at the upcoming trial (set for August 18, 2026). Meta extrapolated this massive figure—which is roughly equivalent to the company's entire stock market value—based on the methodology proposed by the lead states for calculating damages.Meta calls the penalty "outlandish" and "unsubstantiated," arguing it has no precedent in consumer protection history: 'A sanction of that size has no analog in the history of consumer protection enforcement.' The company accuses the states of improperly multiplying penalties (e.g., stacking fines based on daily usage time). Meta denies the allegations, asserting its platforms have extensive safety tools and that the claims are unmoored from actual unfair practices.‘I Don't Think I'm Ever Going to Stop,' Says Mark Zuckerberg. Even With 'Infinite Money,' He Has No Plans to Retreat to His Massive Hawaii EstateMeta found to breach EU laws with 'addictive' Instagram, Facebook designsInstagram and Facebook's “addictive” designs have put Meta in breach of the European Union's digital laws, the EU concluded Friday in a preliminary report.The tech giant violated the EU's Digital Services Act by failing to adequately consider the risks associated with design features that affected the physical well-being of its users, including minors and vulnerable adults, the European Commission said.These features include infinite scroll, which constantly shows fresh content, autoplay, push notifications and highly personalized recommendation systems — feeding users' compulsion to continue using platforms and putting them into “autopilot mode.”The EU Commission also accused Meta of ignoring available information about how much time young people are spending on Instagram or Facebook at night, and how different types of content formats, from reels to stories, could lead to excessive use of its services.Meta said, “We disagree with these preliminary findings.”New Zealand Moves To Ban Climate Change Litigation.
