This Omni Talk Retail Fast Five lightning round covers a little bit of everything, from the passing of legendary Fed chairman Alan Greenspan at age 100 and the question of who deserves the title of favorite economist, to whether Chris and Jenn are Prime Day shoppers (spoiler: neither is exactly hitting refresh at midnight). They also weigh in on Jersey Mike's overtaking Chick-fil-A as Florida's favorite fast food chain and Jenn makes a strong case for the family-sized sub. Plus, in honor of the Fourth of July weekend, Chris shares his pick for favorite historical U.S. figure, and it involves one of the all-time great presidential nicknames. A fun, fast, and slightly chaotic end to another great episode of the Omni Talk Fast Five. ⏩ Tune in for the full episode here: https://youtu.be/k2JviUlR0-Q

This week, Tony and Fingers review the Micallef White Label Connecticut Robusto and Puncher's Chance The Undisputed Single Barrel Bourbon. The cigar is a 5x52 Robusto featuring a Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper, and the guys discuss why Connecticut cigars have come a long way in recent years. Once thought of as mild morning smokes without much depth, today's Connecticut cigars are bringing real flavor — and this Micallef delivers wood, hay, bready sweetness, a touch of pepper, and plenty of value at around $8 a stick. The drink this week is Puncher's Chance The Undisputed Single Barrel, a 108-proof bourbon from Wolf Spirit. Tony and Fingers break down the nose, palate, proof, rye spice, finish, and whether this bottle belongs in the liquor cabinet at around $55. Also on this episode: Fingers brings Tony another unforgettable Gas Station Find — Atomic Boss Blue Riz Hard Punch. It is 12% alcohol, bright blue, sold in a juice box, and may or may not taste like a fluoride rinse mixed with bad decisions. Plus, Tony and Fingers talk World Cup visitors discovering America, ranch dressing and the TSA, Father's Day food deals, grilling, beef ribs, Jersey Mike's knocking Chick-fil-A out of the top fast-food spot, Jersey subs, Indiana tenderloins, family drama, parenting, Prime Day deals, and Defiance Beef. It's cigars, bourbon, blue gas station regret, and America's growing ranch dressing diplomacy. All that and much more on this edition of Eat Drink Smoke.

On this week's Extra Serving, NRN editor in chief Sam Oches and executive editor Alicia Kelso discuss the latest restaurant industry news, including Yum! Brands' sale of Pizza Hut, Jersey Mike's overtaking of Chick-fil-A in a major consumer sentiment study, and KFC's announcement that it was entering a new chapter for growth. First up is Pizza Hut, which was officially sold by Yum! Brands in two transactions totaling $2.7 billion. Sam and Alicia discuss the potential future of the brand, and particularly its U.S. business, which was acquired by relatively new private equity firm LongRange Capital. Can Pizza Hut reclaim the loyalty of fans who are nostalgic for its Classic model? Next up they talk about the most recent American Consumer Satisfaction Index, in which Jersey Mike's came out on top — after 11 years of Chick-fil-A taking the crown. Should Chick-fil-A be worried? Sam and Alicia break down the study and why the data matters (to a point). They then transition to KFC, which announced a new “chapter” in which the company would focus on menu innovation, refreshed branding, and modernized stores. Alicia breaks down all the components of this new chapter, and she and Sam talk about how KFC is well positioned to learn from its global stores here in the U.S. They shift their attention to the increase in store closures — On the Border, for example, is now down to only 6 units — before closing with a Quick Fire round in which they cover Panera Bread's new bowls and McDonald's (brief) reintroduction of its beloved Apple Pie.

Will's vacation trip, the worst states and places to drive in, Texas drivers, scooter issues in College Station, and Chick-fil-A being surpassed by Jersey Mike's as the top fast-food chain — plus the latest news and sports. 

Jersey Mike's has officially dethroned Chick-fil-A as America's favorite fast-food chain, but the real story is John Morgan's hilarious Chick-fil-A experience. Patrick Bet-David and the panel debate subs, customer service, billionaires built on sandwiches, and why Chick-fil-A remains the gold standard.

Two weeks ago, Sari and I took a vacation - an extended road trip down the East Coast as far as Charleston and then inland back to New York through the Appalachians. On a long driving stretch on the way back, we stopped at a Jersey Mike's just off the highway for some much needed nourishment. As we were waiting to pay, a talkative man, in the height of good humor, was ordering behind us. I don't know if he knew anyone working at the store, but he acted as if he did. He said he'd just got a job after five months searching and he was going to celebrate - by buying two big subs - one for that evening and another to put in the fridge for the next night.

What is business actually for?In this episode of The Authority Company Podcast, Joe Pardavila sits down with entrepreneur and author Rick K. Jones to challenge the way most leaders think about profit, growth, and responsibility. After decades building successful companies, Rick now focuses on a bigger question: what does success mean if it doesn't lead to something greater?Rick introduces his concept of “The Business Tithe,” a simple but powerful idea that businesses should give back a portion of their profits to create lasting impact. The conversation explores the tension between capitalism and conscience, why many leaders optimize for profit at the expense of people, and how a shift in mindset can change everything.You'll hear why Rick believes businesses exist to “feed sheep,” how small companies can start giving back immediately, and why the future of leadership depends on moving from success to significance.This is not a theoretical conversation. It is a practical framework for building a business that supports your life, your team, and your community.If you are building a company, leading a team, or thinking about your long-term impact, this episode will challenge how you define winning.⏱️ TIMESTAMPS / CHAPTERS00:00 – Intro: Profit vs purpose00:45 – Why business exists beyond money01:50 – The problem with modern CEOs and profit-first thinking03:20 – Capitalism, fairness, and where it breaks06:20 – Why leadership is a moral decision08:00 – “Feed your sheep” philosophy explained10:00 – Success vs significance12:00 – How much money is enough?13:20 – The Business Tithe explained (10% giving model)15:50 – Why entrepreneurs struggle to value their work17:10 – Privilege, profit, and responsibility19:00 – Real-world example: Jersey Mike's giving model21:00 – How to start giving (even at $1M revenue)22:00 – Givers vs takers mindset24:20 – What “tithe” actually means27:00 – Does faith matter in business?30:00 – Final thoughts: building a legacy

What does it actually take to make a living as a professional swimmer? Olympic Silver Medalist and NCAA Champion Anna Peplowski joins Social Kick to pull back the curtain on pro swimming finances, her transition out of NCAA competition, and her road to the LA 2028 Olympics. Anna breaks down the exact numbers behind her professional career, including the $3,750 monthly stipend from USA Swimming, the $15,000 athlete donor program, and how she navigates brand deals with companies like Jersey Mike's, Science in Sport, and DripDrop. She also shares how living on $650/month rent in Indiana helps her budget for the future! Beyond the business of the sport, Anna discusses the insane depth of the Women's 200 Freestyle, the mindset shift that keeps her motivated during grueling threshold sets, her borderline-obsessive coffee hobby, and the absolute hardest set she's ever done at IU (40x75s!). Plus, stick around for the Rapid Fire segment where Anna flexes an unbelievable hidden talent: singing every single US President in under 15 seconds.

Send us Fan MailFast food opinions get personal fast, and we lean all the way into it. We start with the big four chains and rank Wendy's, McDonald's, Burger King, and Arby's based on what actually keeps people coming back: breakfast consistency, app deals, coupons that save your wallet, and whether the food matches the hype. If you care about McDonald's breakfast, Wendy's hit-or-miss streaks, or why Burger King “isn't hitting like it used to,” you'll feel seen.Then we widen the lane into the best fast food burgers conversation. We debate premium picks like Five Guys, talk Wendy's as a reliable burger option, and get into regional fast food legends, including In N Out Burger animal style, Checkers and Rally's, Culver's butter burger, and Whataburger. We also tackle the “are sandwich chains fast food” question, from Jersey Mike's and Subway to Penn Station and the difference between a chain sub and a true local deli sandwich.Nostalgia shows up big with McDonald's play places, Happy Meals, collectible toys, and the nuggets vs burger debate, plus a side quest into pickles that gets surprisingly heated. We finish with modern convenience and how DoorDash changes the whole fast food experience, then close on the only proper finale: milkshakes from McDonald's or Arby's versus a Wendy's Frosty, with a very real reminder that the McDonald's machine may never be working when you need it.Subscribe for more Ride Home Rants, share this with the friend who always orders the same thing, and leave a review with your most controversial fast food take.All music brought to you by former guest of the show SpeedoSubscribe for exclusive content: https://www.buzzsprout.com/1530455/support Buzzsprout - Let's get your podcast launched!Start for FREETactical BrotherhoodThe Tactical Brotherhood is a movement to support America.Dubby EnergyFROM GAMERS TO GYM JUNKIES TO ENTREPRENEURS, OUR PRODUCT IS FOR ANYONE WHO WANTS TO BE BETTER.ShankitgolfOur goal here at Shankitgolf is for everyone to have a great time on and off the golf courseSweet Hands SportsElevate your game with Sweet Hands Sports!

Union workers at Alamo Drafthouse in Sloan's Lake are walking out today over frustrations with the company's move to a QR code-based food ordering system, saying it overcomplicates interactions with customers. Contributor Michelle Jackson joins host Bree Davies and producer Paul Karolyi to discuss what it means for a theater chain that built a brand on being aggressively anti-phone. Plus they discuss the latest news in the saga of disgraced Mesa County clerk Tina Peters, what this joke map of RTD's light rail stops says about how we view Denver, and of course, our wins and fails of the week.  Bree talked about the new Gems & Minerals Hall coming to the Museum of Nature and Science, the ongoing JBS strike, and Denver City Council's vote for a new contract with Axon. Paul quoted numbers from this Westword report on the local Alamo unions and discussed this statement from the company about the QR ordering change; he also talked about Copper Kettle Brewing's impending closure and Jersey Mike's downhill slide. Michelle mentioned Mo'Betta Greens.  For even more news from around the city, subscribe to our morning newsletter at denver.citycast.fm.
