I luke 6 gyver vi løs på en California-rakker ved navn Soldano SLO100 som har levert high-gain i verdensklasse helt siden 1987. Denne ampen ble blant annet Eddie Van Halens hovedforsterker da det ble trøbbel med hans gode gamle Plexi, som igjen ledet til å bli inspirasjonen bak hans kommende amp i samarbeid med Peavey, nemlig 5150. Soldano har vært ellers å se i eie av gitarister som Eric Clapton, Joe Satriani, Steve Vai, George Lynch, Steve Vai m.fl. Hvis du liker 80s style high-gain som ikke låter for moderne og polert er disse ampene dødstøffe! Du får de til og med i et vennlig stompboxformat også i tillegg til emulering hos Line 6 Helix som vi demoer i denne episoden. God lytt!
En av verdens grommeste amper! Denne kampen ER lyden av rock. En av sine første av sitt slag smeller Marshall Super Lead 1959 (mest kjent under kallenavnet "Plexi") fra seg på svimlende 100w! Både utseende, sound og volum var nok til å skrive rockehistorie fra de første gigene man så gitarister som Pete Townshend og Jimi Hendrix ha vegger med fullstacks på scenen, siden den gang har Plexien vært en amp-platform og/eller en inspirasjon for utallige amper som skulle følge senere. Mange forskjellige reissues og signaturmodeller har blitt lansert opp i gjennom tidene, du må ikke betale en arm og en fot for en vintage en for å komme deg til Plexi-land; Vi kan bla. nevne Universal Audios nye LION-pedal, en Plexi på boks som låter så forbaska bra at det nesten ikke er greit. Så låter ikke dagens Helix-emulering av Plexi sånn altfor gæli heller. Rock on og god fornøyelse!

There is a reason why we fall in love with the tones of songs from decades ago. The player, the phrasing, the technique, the gear. All of this ignites and inspires a guitar player. Of course that gear has become harder and harder to obtain as time goes on. Plexi's to JCM's. Tweed to Silverface. Burst Les Paul to Korina Explorer. Pre-CBS Tele to Grunge Jagstang. If you want the real deal you will have to pay for it… if you don't mind a newer reissue. then there might still be hope. But… Are reissues the same as the original? Do they cost more? Why would people want the old model? Should you pay more to have it intentionally beat up? What is a clone? Is it better than a reissue? Who does them right? Who does them wrong? Does weight play a factor? What about the finish? Is time on its side? Who are reissues marketed for? And the automobile industry… when are you going to jump on board? Well we will discuss this, and more on this group therapy session with Lloyd, on the Tweed Couch. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/tweedcouch/support

Join Tamara for an interview with Kurtis Schumm, a 20-year Tybee Island resident who started his adolescence playing guitar in the "esteemed haunts of Nashville and beyond, including the famed Bluebird Cafe at 14." After moving here, he transitioned into a culinary career, opening Tybee Island Social Club with his wife and eventually running 4 successful restaurants at once. Just before Covid, they sold their restaurant concepts and Kurtis transitioned again, into a full-time art career. His work largely depicts female portraiture and an island aesthetic, and his materials are truly unique: epoxy and acrylic paints, and ink, on plexiglass. (And because he's painting on a clear surface, he works "backwards," i.e. painting in mirror image on the back side of his substrate.) Check out Kurtis's work and follow him here: https://www.instagram.com/givemeschumm/ https://www.kurtisschumm.com/ Topics in their chat include: The connection between wine and colors, and how that led Kurtis to visual art; moving to Savannah about 20 years ago, when his artist mother moved to Tybee; studying food under a woman from Verona, Italy; Kurtis's idea to teach cooking to underprivileged communities so they can get the most healthy food out of a small budget; how he began painting just to create some art for the walls of his restaurants, and finding success selling them; details about how Plexi behaves - how you can cut it down by scoring, how he hangs it with or without frames, how various types of paint and ink behave on it; doing a portrait commission for realtor Cora Bett Thomas that included her surrounded by 10 of her dogs through the years; if you own his art and repaint the wall it's hanging on, you can change the color tone of his piece; getting his art printed on the labels of 2 wines for California-based Seamus Wines; how you can buy his work around town at Grand Bohemian Gallery and One Fish, Two Fish, as well as on St. Simon's Island; and also at the Isle of Hope show on Oct. 21, where Kurtis will be selling various sizes of original paintings. Tune in and get all the details!
Will the next generation of anti-social Americans blame their abhorrent behavior on COVID? How long will it be an excuse for unpaid loans, addiction, or worse? Howie pleads with the public: do not let COVID happen again! It's up to us to stop it.
Le milieu des années 70 marque la montée en puissance de nouvelles drogues comme la cocaïne et de nouveaux marchés vers des clients aisés se sont créés dans les clubs à la mode. Le Clan Dubois prend rapidement le contrôle du Plexi, la boîte de nuit qui se trouvait au sein de l'hôtel Iroquois, puis de l'hôtel au complet. Mais ils ignorent que des policiers qui travaillent pour la commission d'enquête sur le crime organisé (la CECO) les surveillent de près et documentent tous leurs faits et gestes. Dans le même temps, Jean-Guy Dubois et un complice parviennent à faire avorter un procès pour meurtre par un stratagème qui témoigne une fois de plus de leur ingéniosité et leur détermination. La CECO poursuit cependant ses enquêtes et devient très populaire en dévoilant un scandale de vente de viande avariée sous le contrôle du crime organisé. Bien qu'ils ne soient pas reliés à cette histoire, lorsque les membres du clan Dubois font enfin face à la commission, le vent a tourné et plusieurs témoins se décident à parler ce qui va placer le clan dans une situation très difficile. Mais le pire reste à venir, car un criminel repenti va se présenter à la barre de la CECO… Et il connaît très bien les méthodes du clan, dont il a été l'un des tueurs à gages. C'est Donald Lavoie.

We're going to Silicon Valley Christopher Garcia TAP plastics, the fantastic plastic place. TAP plastics was a chain of stores that specialized in providing plastics for pretty much everything. They built. trophy cases they did. Replacement Windows, it was everything you needed. That was plastic or Plexiglas you would go to tap plastics for I only ever use two of them one in just outside of downtown San Jose, on the Alameda, or Yeah, the Alameda. Or maybe it was San Carlos, no, the Alameda. Stop questioning yourself, Chris. And the other one in downtown Mountain View. And what's impressive about places like tap plastics, is how thoroughly they have been replaced by online services. This is not necessarily a bad thing. It does make it a little harder when you have something in hand that you want to get replaced. And you don't have the tools to actually do the measurements, for example. But I used that plastics a lot when I worked at the Computer History Museum, most notably for the Cray one. So I was given a task more busy work than anything of putting new side panels on to the Cray one supercomputer so that we could display it and actually have people sit on it. This was a fun task. I did all the measurements and sent it in, went and picked it up and none of them fit. And I couldn't figure out why. And we brought it back again, and they cut a little slice, little off, they put it in. And again, it didn't fit out four or five different back and forth. We did until I realized what had happened. The original plates have actually shrunk. And we're actually almost completely loose of their side aluminum holdings. But when you measured them, you couldn't actually get them to be right in because they had unevenly warped. So some were much narrower than others. This was annoying. But that plastics bless them. They went back and they read cut and they retrained four or five times without annoyance, which is amazing, because I wasn't thinking about TAP plastics was it was a drop off and pickup sort of situation most of the time. Yeah, they had things on the shelves, things like Plexi, cleaner, all that sort of thing. Individual pieces, like if you wanted the display piece, you could almost always get it from the floor. But for the most part two was about trimming and cutting. And that's what I used it for excessively and I wished today, I have a display case I want to get a new panel for but there's no easy way to do that. And that's what tap plastics and other stores like that, that did things like plastic and wood cut paneling and so forth that were local, made possible was to not necessarily do it yourself, but to interact directly and to go back and forth with an individual spot. And I think we need more of that. I think losing that has been hard. I think TAP plastics is what I think of when I think of a store that recognized its customers and customer base and focused on them as their clientele so that they could keep a loyal audience and you know what, to this day me they have Find out more at https://siligone-valley.pinecast.co

Die Elektronik der E-Gitarre Diesmal sind Kurt Härtl und Tilmann Zwicker von GITEC zu Gast. Wir unterhalten uns über die elektrischen Bauteile an der E-Gitarre und deren Einfluss auf den Gesamtsound. Was machen bspw. die Tonabnehmer? Welchen Einfluss haben die Potis? Beide sind Vorstände des Vereins, der geballtes Wissen zu E-Gitarre & Amp von Wissenschaftlern und Profimusikern bietet. Lerne Deine ELEKTRISCHE GITARRE von der technischen Seite her kennen: GITEC liefert umfassende, technisch/wissenschaftlich korrekte Information. Du spielst die elektrische Gitarre. Sie ist Deine Berufung oder Dein liebstes Hobby, sie inspiriert Dich und bietet Dir ein unvergleichliches Ausdrucksmittel. Früher oder später möchtest Du wissen, wie dieses Instrument und seine Verstärkung funktioniert – und bist sicher interessiert, die Sache für Dich zu optimieren. GITEC kann Dir assistieren mit einer weltweit wohl einzigartigen Sammlung von Know-How auf wissenschaftlichem Niveau in unserem Wissens-Archiv, und viele Fragen beantworten. Fragen stellen kannst Du in unserem Community-Bereich (dort findest Du auch viele interessante Fachartikel, Mitglieder-Projekte, das GITEC-Journal, und mehr). Denn viele von uns Gitarristen haben eines gemeinsam: Die ewige Suche nach dem "besten Gitarrenton"! Also: was ist denn nun GITEC wieder? Wir Typen bei GITEC, dem Forum für E-Gitarrentechnik, haben jede Menge Spass mit unseren Brettgitarren und dazu einem Plexi, Boogie, Tweed, oder so – oder mehreren davon. Aber dann wollen wir doch immer wieder wissen, wie das alles genau funktioniert, und so schliessen wir auch gerne mal ein Multimeter, ein Oszi oder einen Analyzer an unsere Instrumente und Amps an. Dacht ich's mir doch – NERDS! Na ja, kann man nicht ganz wegleugnen. Manche mehr, manche weniger - und manche werden sagen, sie waren völlig ok und normal, bevor sie vom Guru angefixt wurden. Guru? Angefixt? So ist das – der Mann heißt Manfred Zollner, ist Professor an der OTH Regensburg, schon lange 'ne große und bekannte Nummer in Sachen Akustik und ein echter Freak. Fährt sowas wie einen DeLorean und hat 12 Jahre lang an einem weltweit einzigartigen Standardwerk in Sachen „wie genau funzt die Brettgitarre und warum klingt das so geil“ gearbeitet. Zum Spaß! Weil das sein Ding ist. 1200 Seiten – und es kommt noch mehr! Der hat uns alle mit Workshops, Forenbeiträgen, allgemeinem Zutexten und Besserwissen und einer für GITEC-Mitglieder freien Onlineversion seines Werks angefixt. Und weil er schon irgendwie genial ist und echt alles weiß (und dann auch noch besser), ist er jetzt der Chef von unserem Verein.

Chasing Tone - Guitar Podcast About Gear, Effects, Amps and Tone
Brian, Blake and Richard are back with an all-new episode of the Chasing Tone Podcast!Have you ever foraged for mushrooms? No, not the ones that make you see faeries, the ones that offer sustenance...Blake has and tells us about it. Richard has listened to a podcast where Jo Wood, the former wife of Rolling Stones guitarist Ronnie Wood, interviews some of her fellow celebrity UFO fans, and he tells us the story that stuck in his mind about Robbie Williams before Brian tells us about his schoolyard fighting days.Whats the largest concert you ever went to? The guys talk about some ridiculous numbers Richard found out about whilst looking into some of the world's biggest concerts. This leads Brian to worry about the practicalities and then discuss bass guitar heroes including the bass player Darren Wall who stopped a shooter and is our Hero of the Week. Someone stole some instruments from one of Blake's friend's bands (Kaonashi) and he is mad...and rightly so! In terms of thievery, almost nothing is worse than stealing someones tools and stopping them from working. Some people use the term "Bedroom Guitarist" as an insult to the level of skill a guitarist has, but the guys do not agree. However you make your music, as long as you enjoy it, it is all good. What if you work with guitars for a living - is it still fun? Find out what the guys think in this episode. Richard has one of Brian's new prototypes and it has surprised him despite his familiarity with the architecture...Crowds of millions, Inverting Op-amps, Joe Perry, Studio toys, 1972 Plexi amps, Tremelo pedals, Smokey amps, Investing in guitars ...

I was just sitting there watching TV after a long day of editing, and a commercial for Plexi-Derm comes on selling an eye cream to reduce wrinkles, dark circles, and under-eye puffiness for $14.95 and FREE S&H. Now, I am no stranger to this type of product as it's been on the As Seen On TV circuit for years. But, what I couldn't understand was the before and after photos and the characters, they chose to convince you to buy the product. Perhaps they weren't real people because the VO did say..."this photo is of a real person'"... Good Grief People!

Au début de la semaine, nous vous parlions des origines du projet français “PLEX’EAT“, qui permet de manger au restaurant en toute sécurité. Retrouvons une nouvelle fois le designeur Christophe Gernigon. Il nous parle aujourd’hui des retours très enthousiastes qu’il a reçu de son projet, et ce bien au-delà des frontières hexagonales. “J’ai lancé le projet sur les réseaux sociaux. Et j’ai eu des retours très rapidement ; beaucoup de restaurateurs qui m’ont dit : ‘Moi je suis intéressé.’ Et cela venait de tous les pays : Nouvelle-Zélande, Pérou, Brésil… [Rires] Des choses complètement folles.“ Il nous fait part des ficelles de fabrication. Un processus qui ne saurait tarder : “Il y a des fabricants qui m’ont appelé. Je me suis dit : ‘Tiens, je vais prendre celui qui est français, qui fait travailler un peu le pays.’ Vous savez en général dans le design, un protopype nécessite trois semaines, voire un mois. Là l’industriel m’a dit : ‘On va essayer d’aller plus vite.’ Normalement, je vais pouvoir voir le premier prototype dès mercredi 20 mai. Cela reste un premier jet, donc on verra si cela convient. Moi, j’avais une idée très simple de la chose. Je me disais : ‘On prend le Plexiglas de la visière, et cela ira très bien.’ Mais ce ‘Plexi’ est trop fin et il risque de gondoller. Il faut aussi un côté détachable pour que les restaurateurs puissent le nettoyer très vite pour pouvoir faire un deuxième service. Il faut aussi que ce soit un Plexiglas qui ne soit pas rayable, et non pas un bas de gamme qui se raye au premier coup de chiffon.“ Mais alors à combien s’élève le prix d’une distanciation physique garantie ? : “Aujourd’hui, je n’ai pas de prix. Vous savez il y a des problèmes : on est en manque de Plexiglas et son prix de vente varie. Donc l’usine n’est pas capable de me donner un prix réel. Je vous avoue que je leur mets la pression, parce que je veux que cela soit aussi qualitatif, qu’abordable.“ Pour espérer rouvrir leurs restaurants, avec des capacités de service rentables, les chefs n’ont d’autre choix que de s’adapter. Tout cela pour que le client soit bien dans son assiette. À Berlin, si les bars restent fermés, les restaurants eux ont pu rouvrir vendredi. Mais les clients ne se pressent pas au portillon, d’autant que les mesures de distanciation sociale ne sont pas toujours au rendez-vous. Crédit photo : © 2020 Christophe Gernigon Studio
Alors que les restaurants doivent repenser leur configuration pour espérer rouvrir, certains designeurs comme Christophe Gernigon pensent déjà à demain, pour aider les commerces de bouche à survivre à la crise. Il nous explique la genèse de son concept sphérique en Plexigas, baptisé “PLEX’EAT“. “Durant mes nuits d’éveil et de travail pendant le confinement, je me disais : ‘Mince, on ne peut plus aller au restaurant.’. Donc je suis allé voir ce qui avait été fait et je suis tombé sur des choses qui étaient très anxiogènes. J’avais vraiment l’impression d’être dans un parloir de prison. Et je me suis dit : ‘Mince, il y a quelque chose à faire, parce que là, je ne peux pas retourner au restaurant comme cela. Je vais dessiner quelque chose, mais j’espère que cela ne verra jamais le jour, que le coronavirus sera disparu d’ici là.’. Et je me suis rappelé d’un voyage en Thaïlande, à Bangkok, où il y avait un ‘concept store’, dans lequel il y avait des fauteuils, avec une parabole au-dessus des gens, et on pouvait s’installer dans les fauteuils pour écouter la musique tranquillement.“ Il nous détaille concrètement la forme de l’objet : “Je me suis dit : ‘Il faut que ce soit facile pour les restaurateurs, à poser, à nettoyer et que cela ne soit pas anxiogène pour les consommateurs.’. Donc je suis parti sur l’idée de l’abat-jour. On est sur une suspension avec une visière XXL, que l’on apposerait sur un cercle et puis l’idée de libérer un peu l’arrière pour que les clients puissent se glisser directement en dessous. Et après, j’ai un peu peaufiné tout cela. J’ai travaillé ses lignes ; ses lignes vers l’arrière, pour qu’elles soient assez jolies : avec de belles courbes.“ Et à ceux qui ont peur d’être sous cloche, il répond : “Cette l’expérience, c’est aussi pour aider les restaurateurs. Et puis j’espère que dans trois mois ou dans six mois, on se dira : ‘Mais voilà, c’est passé, superbe ! Oui, je suis allé aider les restaurants en allant manger sous cloche.’“ Au nord-est de l’Allemagne, à Schwerin, un bar a opté pour une solution plus comique pour faire respecter la distanciation physique : le port d’un chapeau de paille surmonté de deux frites de piscine.

Sonic Renegades: Exploring Revolutionary Guitar Effects Pedals
In this episode, we take an in-depth look at this solid distortion pedal. Plexi sounds abound in this pedal making it a must-have for enthusiasts of dirt.
Eric Rieger Alright, we're going to get down to the gut check project starting on episode 34. It's gonna be a quick one, but you're gonna love it.Ken Brown Yeah, we're gonna try and do this a little bit quicker because what I've gotten some feedback is when you guys get all sciency that sometimes it's it's cool to hear the fun stuff, but the reality is that the science gets a little geeky and it gets almost like a lecture. So I apologize to everyone out there if I've been some weird professor but so my only thing so let's do the personal stuff is your family good? Eric Rieger Family's Great! Awesome. Ken Brown My family's great also awesome. And that's up for the personal stuff. So like I said, I was called by a good friend, Tim, our good friend his father had... Eric Rieger Tim Power been on the show. Ken Brown Yeah, Tim power been on the show. His father had a stroke. And he messaged me and he said, Hey, man, my dad had a stroke, and they don't seem to be talking diet. They don't seem to talking supplements. He's in rehab. He's getting better. I'm doing my own stuff. I'm trying to fix this. But do you have any recommendations? And rather than just knee jerk and go, Oh, I'm going to go ahead and yeah, just do this and this and this. I started thinking about it. I went Holy cow, my hospital. Medical city Plano.Eric Rieger Right. Ken Brown Is a level one trauma center and is designated as a magnet hospital for stroke, acute stroke rehabilitation. Eric Rieger Okay. Ken Brown So they have a whole team that if you show up with a stroke, it's just like a heart attack. They're badass. Yeah, they show up with like this team of interventional neurologists, and they get in there and they do all this stuff. So I'm sitting there. My quick side note, I'm picking up my family from Mexico, because Luke was just playing tennis. You know, that was the the personal part of it that we didn't get into, but just assume it's tennis. Eric Rieger Assume it's basketball.Ken Brown Yeah. So I called. I called the stroke rehab unit. And I spoke with them with the nurse. The manager, nurse and she was so cool. She's like, She's like, hey, yeah, blah blah blah Yeah, we were our rates are this. This is the protocol. I'm like, what's a protocol for diet? We don't have one. What's protocol for supplements? We don't have one i'm like, Oh my goodness, let's look at this. So I called our secret weapon. And I started to get into it and it's a much bigger bite to chew off then we can do in this sort of quick episode. So this quick episode, I want to just focus on the endocannabinoid system and stroke. Because what we do with stroke victims is that we basically do everything wrong. Eric Rieger I believe it. Ken Brown In the hospital. Eric Rieger Yeah. Ken Brown And when I asked him, like, what is the typical diet? She's like low fat. Eric Rieger What's the science behind that? Ken Brown Exactly. And we know that the carbohydrates increase inflammation and this and that. I'm like, Well, what else and she's like you had traditionally everybody gets put on a Staten, which causes some brain inflammation, because we're chasing numbers on cholesterol. Anyways, keep listening, because we're going to end up doing another episode on we're going to develop a protocol that I hope everybody adapts, and the nurse was like, that would be amazing. nobody's talking like that. Because everybody has this hammer. I mean, we bring these people in, they have a stroke. And one of the most important things is sleep and what do we do just disrupt sleep, check vitals blood sugar, and all this other stuff. So basically, we focus up we focus on all this stuff. So I called a couple neurologists, and was like, Hey, man, what's the or Hey, woman? I don't want to be sexist here. I'm like, Hey, what are we doing here? What's going on with the you guys are crushing it. So basically they focus on the awesomeness science of clotbusters like tpas and blood thinners. And then they rush in with this incredible technology that is amazing. Where they get in and they do like cardiac clot, like the same thing that the cardiologists have been doing. That they end up just sort of extracting these clots and they just crazy stuff. It works, but then they don't think about anything else,. So here a gut check project. I feel like we check our egos at the door and we look and go, how can we do things a little bit better? I feel like that this conversation that we're having could be the beginning of something bigger. Sure. I feel like we're missing a ton of stuff. This is not to bash traditional medicine at all. This is just a glorious example of how medicine save lives. But unfortunately, if all you have is a hammer then everything's a nail. So we're going to go ahead and look at that today. Eric Rieger Let's do it. Ken Brown I'm gonna do one brief thing. Because we always do in in the news, we always do our personal lives in the news, mostly because it's a win for me. So I'm just whenever I find news that is pertinent to me, I'll talk about it. And I'll just kind of, like most people just sort of ignore the stuff that bothers you. Bottom line is a study just came out. Looking at coffee. Eric Rieger Oh, I love coffee. Ken Brown So February is Heart Month, right? Eric Rieger It is. Ken Brown So everyone talks about Heart Month, and we're strokes are almost parallel to heart. So the same vessels that can ruin your brain can ruin your heart. You're gonna die either way. Let's start fixing it. Eric Rieger Yeah. Ken Brown So a study came out this last Thursday. So just a few days ago, in a journal called PLOS biology that I follow, which always looks at like new and upcoming research, as it find it. As it turns out, we know that coffee is good in 2017. There was this big meta analysis that show that help with diabetes. And also helped with cardiovascular disease and different things like that. But we really never, we always thought it was the polyphenols. So these guys looked at this and they took mouse models. And what they showed is that the caffeine plays a role. Eric Rieger Nice. Ken Brown Yeah. In case you haven't guessed that I drink just tons of coffee. Eric Rieger I didn't have to guess I see it all the time. Ken Brown Alright, so anyways, they took mouse models, and what they showed is that when you drink four to five cups of coffee equivalent in caffeine, you actually improve the mitochondria in the heart cells. They even show that the mitochondria is that you know, it's the powerhouse of the cell. It's what makes you walk around. It's what drives every single cell they found a protein called p 27, which is stimulated by caffeine. And when they gave heart attacks to mice, and then they gave them coffee, the mice that got the coffee, or the caffeine equivalent, recovered quicker, knockout mice that they took away the P 27 protein or whatever, they all died of heart attacks. So quick little thing in the news, coffee good, helps diabetes helps heart disease. And now we realize that it improves mitochondria. So I got to thinking and I was like, wow, the whole mitochondria is our aging thing. I found an article where they looked at old an aging mice, the more caffeine that they took in during the day, the more that their mitochondria were younger, and it was an anti aging molecule. So polyphenols plus caffeine, it looks like.Eric Rieger it's really interesting, brief note, and maybe we should even do a show about caffeine and the systemic effects because during anesthesia school, we talked about why caffeine does what it does, and the jitters. And essentially, the way it was explained to us and shown to us is that they didn't know the exact mechanism, but they could tell that the threshold that it took for like a neuron to fire was lessened. So what it does is it lowers threshold to elicit an action potential. It would make sense that somebody who's a little bit older, basically you're taking down the barrier. And now you've got demand making the mitochondria useful. I mean, it's...Ken Brown Yeah, I like where you're going with that.Eric Rieger It's all kind of systemic, we'll get to that. That sounds like a an interesting... Ken Brown So that's just basically in the news Heart Month now we're doing this... Eric Rieger And if you think this episode's fast, wait til we do the caffeine one.Ken Brown So this is just one of those things where we're, we're trying some different stuff out but one of the biggest problems I had is I called the stroke center and they do not have a protocol. And then when I called the neurologists and and I said one thing I was like, have you guys ever thought about the endocannabinoid system, in your specialty.Eric Rieger No, they haven't.Ken Brown Not only No, it was a hard no with that BS. Eric Rieger Sure. Yeah. Ken Brown So rather than get an argument and like, we'll just do a show on it.Eric Rieger Yeah, we will. Ken Brown So this show should be titled the anti bs side of endocannabinoid system and stroke. Eric Rieger Let's do it. Ken Brown Alright. So, once again, geeky sorry, we've done two geeky shows in a row. We're gonna have to start having, you know, just playful things. We have to have a comedian on like Joe Rogan or something like that.Eric Rieger Eventually.Ken Brown Yeah. It's probably a little premature. Alright, so let's talk about the endocannabinoid system really quick. I'm gonna throw it to you, and I'm gonna let you just to describe to everybody what is the endocannabinoid system. Eric Rieger The best application that we know today that I understand is it basically functions as a great communicator, between our nervous and our immune system. So you have these two systems and basically it functions as the regulator. It's the one that prevents one from being overstimulated and driving the other one to do something that you don't want it to do.Eric Rieger 100% So the way that I describe it to my patients, our endocannabinoid system is like any other system in our body, you have a cardiovascular and neurologic. The endocannabinoid system works like a traffic cop. And what it does is it says we need more inflammation here. Whoa, you're overreacting. Why don't you just calm down right over here? So keep that in mind, because as we talked about the endocannabinoid system, now we're going to talk about how does the endocannabinoid system relate to stroke. So unfortunately, we got to talk a little bit about strokes. And I like history you like history. So, Hippocrates, the father of medicine first recognized strokes over 2400 years ago, we got 2400 years to figure out how to fix this. At that time, they called it apo Plexi, which means struck down by violence. So 2400 years and to this day stroke still kill 140,000 Americans. That's one out of every 20 deaths. Eric Rieger Wow. Ken Brown Someone in the United States has a stroke every 40 seconds. That means every four minutes someone dies. Every year more than seven Well, let's just call it 800,000 people in the United States have a stroke. About 87% of all strokes are ischemic stroke. Which means it's decrease of blood flow. And $34 billion are lost every single year due to strokes. Stroke is a leading cause of serious long term disability, stroke reduces mobility in more than half of stroke survivors. So the, if the actual death is not shocking enough. It's your health span is reduced. And you and I always talk about lifespan versus health span...be healthy. So what I'm going to talk about right here is crazy that this is not being implicated. This is not are not implicated not not being used in the traditional sense.Eric Rieger Gotcha. Eric Rieger All right. So, right now, the cool science going on is that we've got all this intervention, we got labs, we got stroke centers. We did we're, I feel like we can do a whole episode on just the diet, the supplements, everything around lifestyle on a stroke. And we're going to do that just like we're gonna do the butyrate episode coming up and just like we're going to do, every time we get into a topic, we start digging deeper, and we learn a little bit more. So today, the fact that these neurologists are saying, oh, food is Bs, well, I'm just taking on the big 600 pound gorilla. I want to say, Well, I want to know what you're not even thinking about endocannabinoids are you? And they're like, that's really bs. Now we're gonna get into it. So it is there's tons of research in the animal model of how to target so this topic of this podcast is the endocannabinoid system and strokes. Holy cow, there's tons of data on this and we're not even talking about it. I'm at a, a world class Stroke Center. Where we save more people than like anyplace else. We've been given national recognition. If if you're the CEO of who owns our house, the old colombia The HCA HCA if you're the CEO of HCA, pay attention because I can say more people for you, because as it turns out, there's lots of confusing data out there. And I took the time to go ahead and look at some of this. It's really cool. Basically, we've already reviewed the endocannabinoid system. Now in this endocannabinoid system, there's two primary receptors. We're learning that there's more for the Wil Clydens of the world that are super smart, and they understand that there's a lot more than that or the Chris Kressors and people like that. But for the general public, there's two receptors, cb one and CB two, there are the traffic cops, right? So that's what we have to realize. So as we alter the endocannabinoid system through different things, we know that the endocannabinoid system is associated with Parkinson's disease. It's associated with Alzheimer's and multiple sclerosis. The only drug approved is epidiolex for seizures. This is part of the problem. It's the confusion of what's going on? People say what does the FDA say? Well, did you know that the FDA just missed their mark to present to Congress on February 20? No? Ken Brown Yeah, they missed it. That's another news article. They did not come up with a consensus statement on CBD when they were mandated by Congress to do that, because everybody's so confused. Eric Rieger Wow, you know, I didn't know that we should look into that.Ken Brown And we know that in those studies of epidiolex, there was 86% side effects and all the things. So what I'm going to get into is the full spectrum, what we're looking at here, so stick with me here I know that I'm kind of bouncing around. What I'm trying to do is set the stage that the endocannabinoid system is intricately related to the disease known as a stroke or the event known as a stroke. So knowing that the endocannabinoid system is important in Parkinson's and in Alzheimer's, dementia and such like that, what we want to try and figure out is how is the endocannabinoid system related to similar things which is Parkinson's and dementia are inflammation in the brain. Well, the stroke is immediate inflammation. Alright, so CB one receptors. I say this only because the argument will come up will be like, well, I found some studies that showed that there were some studies looking at CB one receptors were when you had knockout mice, they did better. Other studies show that they did worse. Some said that this and that. And so I was going through all this literature going, this is silly. This is we don't really have a conclusion. So the bottom line is, think of it this way. And I will use a Will Klyden quote, it is a symphony. It is not one instrument. When you are looking at the endocannabinoid system, if you are just going to focus on one thing, which unfortunately researchers do because it's impossible to account for all the other variables, all I can say is CB one is intricately involved and it may be involved in a negative way. When it becomes a stroke. So if Your endocannabinoid system is not in tune. It can make it worse. Just like a symphony where you have the brass section which is just screwing it up. You've got the rest of the symphony playing Mozart and you've got some other people just kicking some cake. Eric Rieger An orchestra with only symbols is not very entertaining. Ken Brown No, it's not. So I bring this up because when you start trying to read it and debate it and look at it, you can be thrown curveballs. One of them is that and, but then you dig deeper. And there's all this literature on this instrument called CB two. Cb two is the other instrument, cb one, cb two are the two receptors. Now we're learning more about the endocannabinoid system, the data is much more straightforward on this. Basically, multiple rat models have shown that when you give an agonist or a CB two activator, both pre stroke and post stroke you decrease the amount of damage, so you can actually prevent what's going to happen. And then once it happens, you go, Oh, we need to stimulate that. Keep that in mind. Because to prove a point further, when CB two was blocked, the rats had tremendously more damage and they had residual effects. So just by saying the endocannabinoid system, and they're like, oh, it involves CB one, cb two, which is the top level that everybody talks about. The interplay is way more, you gotta let the body do what it wants to do. can't shut one off, you can't turn one on. You can't encourage you have to be able to let the body do what it wants to do.Eric Rieger No, definitely. And that's, that's really not that different than lots of different drugs which they thought they pulled them out of racemic mixtures. And then what racemic mixture means is you've got two different variations of the same molecule and one's active and one isn't But then they learned that sometimes if you do one and try to isolate it, you actually caused damage. Whereas before, if you had them together, you didn't have that damage. And it's played that multiple times.Ken Brown So clearly CB two receptors play a very key role. What I'm trying to prove here is that when we take these animals and we mess with these receptors, we either increase the damage or we decrease the damage. So the theory is that the endocannabinoid mediated modulation of the inflammatory process is the reason why people get better. So in other words, we always talk about inflammation. Now they're realizing that the CB two receptor mitigates the inflammatory process during an ischemic event. Eric Rieger That's pretty important. Ken Brown It's really wild. So now what actually interacts with these receptors? So if somebody's never heard these terms before, they're like, man, they're talking weird stuff. They're talking CB one, cb two, don't worry about that. Cb one, cb two are just two likeminded things that are trying to make you better. As it turns out, we can say this about every single system in the body there's going to be interactions, downplaying in the gastrointestinal system. Histamine will stimulate a cell which will produce gastrin, which will increase the acid production blah, blah, blah, we know this Eric Rieger But histamine could, the same molecule on a different receptor could cause a completely different Ken Brown 100%. So why would the endocannabinoid system not be different than every other system? Eric Rieger It's it sounds to me like it's very normal. Ken Brown You know what I keep saying? We're gonna have Endocannabinoid ologists I'm gonna be the first endocannabinologist. I'm gonna get myself a title. So somebody had to be the first black belt or something. I mean, why don't I just rushed to be like? I'm It! I'm it! Eric Rieger I'm the BBECS. Ken Brown Yeah. Alright, so there's two endocannabinoids. What I mean is you make your own CBD. And those two things there's we're learning that there's lots of them. But for the basics it's anandamide and 2ag. So knowing that you have these two endogenous meaning two endocannabinoids that stimulate CB one and CB two now we're just learning what they do. Okay. So 2ag goes up dramatically following a stroke.Eric Rieger So trying to do some damage control.Ken Brown We don't know...Eric Rieger We don't know...Ken Brown We do know that when anandamide is the soft light that is always on when you go through a stressful event 2ag turns on switch the flashlight. So the feeling is that that 2ag is the fight or flight Endocannabinoid. Eric Rieger Oh, okay. Ken Brown Yeah, so when you need it, It ramps way up. In situations where there's cell damage, it doesn't know the difference that there's cell damage possibly it's ramping up because it's like we're in fight or flight mode. We're dying here. Eric Rieger Where's the inflammation? Ken Brown Yeah, so these guys are postulating that when you block 2AG, the stroke damages less. My feeling is well, what if it's doing something someplace else? Like, what if you needed that 2ag burst? So when you have fight or flight, you need it for different things. Sure. Some people would say, oh, you're having a fighter flight. You're being chased by a saber toothed Tiger your blood pressure's up. We should give you blood pressure medicine. No, it's the right thing that should be happening right now. Yeah, I need the blood pressure to pump the blood. So we know that that to ag is your fight or flight Endocannabinoid think of it that way the flashlight Anandamide is the one that you want up, that is the Eric Rieger Parasympathetic, your rest and digest. Ken Brown It's the it's not quite the parasympathetic one, but it's the one that is your baseline that should always be filled, that anandamide tank should always be filled. 2aG. We're gonna learn more about it in the future because we haven't studied that as much. But when you have 2ag around, blood flow gets reduced. So the damage is worse. And this is really interesting because when your baseline anandamide is low, your 2 a G will overshoot. Eric Rieger Okay.Ken Brown So they work like a seesaw. So if you can get them in balance, we always talked about balance and in sync. When your anadamide is full and your 2ag is full, they never really mess with each other. In a situation where you're depleted in your endocannabinoid system, then you will have the propensity to have too much 2Ag and your anandamide is in fight or flight and your endocannabinoids will keep producing the two AJ, Eric Rieger That is very, very interesting. So in other words, what we want is to never be in a position where our our ECS is low on what it needs to function. Ken Brown 100% so anandamide we're now learning is probably the baseline Endocannabinoid that controls the day to day response that you're having. 2ag turns on when you need it to turn on. So, although the animal models show that 2ag increases significantly causes vasoconstriction and all this stuff, we're learning that okay, maybe, maybe this is my theory, the stress and the chronic disease. Listen to this one more time here, the stress and the chronic disease that led to a stroke. Meant that your anandamide was being depleted and your body was getting ready for the event. You're 2ag going up. So stress, lack of sleep, diet, all have been shown to decrease our anandamide levels, stress, lack of sleep and diet have all been shown to be linked to cardiac and stroke and every other event that we talked about Eric Rieger Time and time again. Ken Brown So when I grab a neurologist and I say, Have you ever thought about the endocannabinoid system, the religious stroke and they're like, that's BS. I'm being nice about how they said it to me. Are you kidding me? Eric Rieger Well, it's...Ken Brown we're missing this huge, giant piece.Eric Rieger It's kind of sad because the research isn't it's not one paper. This is it's ubiquitous, it grows every single day. I think people have over the last 50 years have forgotten that innovation brought us to where we are now. I mean, we used to not have TPA we used to not have kumudin and we used to not have these things I mean it those were also new introductive things for us to figure out.Ken Brown I was talking to somebody yesterday and they were like you know what's really skewed when you look back at like the the average lifespan when you when you factor out the deaths at birth people still live to like 60 and 70. Like, like, but there was so many things that killed babies Eric Rieger Oh, you mean long ago, Ken Brown Like long ago. So when I say that Hippocrates was describing strokes, and you know, 2000 years ago, whatever. But this is so fascinating because think about this, if you keep your anandamide levels optimal like adding Atrantil which blocks an enzyme that breaks down your own anandamide levels. That is something that we can look at, and I think that's part of the next episode. But when you take CBD, so our CBD product here, when you take a good quality CBD it doesn't even bind directly to CB one or CB two. We know that a full spectrum product has many cannabinoids and other molecules that bind to certain receptors. We also believe that CBD will play a role in helping the body to produce more of its own Endocannabinoids. So what I tell my patients is that if you take CBD, you're going to increase your own anandamide levels. You take CBD plus Atrantil, That's the signature package and you're going to make sure that you block the enzyme that breaks down your anandamide Eric Rieger So it lasts longer. Ken Brown So it lasts longer and the neurologists like there's no science in this. Okay? So I had to dig deeper, or our secret weapon dug deeper for me. In rat models, infusing CBD into the brains of rats significantly helped to decrease the amount of damage and help recover in stroke. Really CBD does nothing? They actually injected CBD into the brains of rats that they cause strokes. And it actually blocked the ischemic event. One to One. Crazy! Eric Rieger That's noticeable. That's a reproducible event.Ken Brown Then in another study, they showed that the blood brain barrier sealed its tight junction and decreased brain swelling post stroke when you gave them CBD, Eric Rieger Which is huge. I mean, I know it sounds really, really technical, but trust me, that's not nothing.Ken Brown Remember the whole reason that I'm even talking about this is because our friend Tim just called me and said, Hey, man, my dad's in rehab, and they're not saying anything. Well, it was shown that continued oral administration post stroke at one week, and one month reduced the volume of infarct and improved neuro behavior on autopsy. So they're taking this it showed that CBD reduced white matter injury reduced glial response, meaning that the cells did not react to it. And it increased BDNF.Eric Rieger Which is what you need for repair.Ken Brown You need that for repair. Shit! This is nuts. Yeah, we're over here saying that CBD isn't do anything where the endocannabinoid doesn't have it and I'm finding article after article and these guys are finding amazing data BDNF. If I the first thing I would do would be to the first thing I would do would be to put people we're going to come up with a whole protocol. And I'm gonna go to HCA and don't be like, everybody that has a frickin stroke needs ABCD and one of them's gonna be frickin CBD. This is ridiculous.Eric Rieger We've got some opportunity, though. And not everybody's closed, we could probably find a couple of neurologists around here in the area that are at least willing to fairly examine data and dive in. And that's what we'll have to do.Ken Brown We're gonna end up having to go into this. I mean, the fact that I called my own Stroke Center, and the nurse sheepishly said, Well, you know, they do the usual things that put them on a low fat diet, and I stopped her. Which, by the way, it's really cool, because when I called up, I was picking Lucas up and I was like, yeah, hey, it was nurse manager. And she's like, Yeah, and I said, I said, Yeah, this is, this is Dr. Brown. Do you have moment to ask couple questions. She's like, sure what patient is that? Regarding? I'm like, now I just wanna ask some questions. And she stopped. She goes the GI Doctor said, Yeah, she's like, oh, like, what do you mean uh Oh, she's like, I've seen your show. I'm a little scared what you're gonna ask. I'm like alright and so that's how we got this talk. So right now new models are looking at immediate administration of CBD and hyperthermia. So somebody out there is saying, if we make them cold and give them CBD, and it seems to be a synergistic effect Eric Rieger Wasn't that long ago, people thought that making the body cold was a bunch of Hocus Pocus crap, too, right? It really wasn't that long ago. And so now we've returned to its natural element, all we're doing is reducing body temperature. But however long ago it was, I can remember people saying, Well, you know, they're trying the cryo, and at first like, hey, maybe it works. And then suddenly, we saw lack of decrease in loss of neural function, you know, make believers.Ken Brown So I want to play devil's advocate, and we talked last time that we're going to do some sort of like contest. Here's the contest, for the listeners. All right. There is a reference when I was looking at all this stuff, one reference, there was an article on stroke in cannabis ingestion, where they said that cannabis ingestion increases the incidence of stroke. So and then I went and found the article and realized there's a lot of other factors associated with that, much like the FDA article that we did on liver failure. It's very much like that. But the FDA is using an article like that and ignoring everything that I just said. And they're using that. So what I propose is and you figured out, you're the you're the techie guy, let's do some sort of giveaway where if somebody the first person that messages us in one way or another email, Instagram, Facebook,Eric Rieger Paul we're gonna need help with that, Ken Brown yeah, snail mail, whatever, I don't know. That references the article and puts the author's names down because the author's names you'll you'll really, you'll You'll definitely find the article when you find this author's names, that I think we should give them a signature package Eric Rieger Signature package if you find the well hidden, gem about marijuana, cannabis smoking and stroke causation, right? Ken Brown Yeah. So spoiler alert. So I'm going through a whole Rick and Morty Phase I should do.Eric Rieger If you're not watching Rick and Morty, that's one way to decrease anxiety.Ken Brown All right.Eric Rieger This episode is brought to you by Rick and Morty.Ken Brown I cannot believe it's took me this long to find that show I am I come home and that's 20 minutes of just complete giggle time, just total giggle time. Alright, so lots of cool animal data. I just explained what I think shows that the endocannabinoid system is intricately related to strokes and how we can improve it and in some ways if you try and mess with it, make it worse. Eric Rieger So let's I know we did a quick episode but let's just do a quick rundown to make sure that everybody who's listening or watching can make their own crib notes. So, essentially, before and after a stroke, you can prepare your body for better recovery or prevention of the stroke itself that comes from having a healthy endocannabinoid system your ECS. How can you fortify your ECS? You make sure that you have enough sleep, you make certain that your diet is rich in polyphenols, which of course you can supplement with altrantil, and you make certain that you have the correct macronutrients for your ECS to lift up which you can get with a formidable or reputable CBD which kbmd health has both of those things. So in essence, if you want you don't know how you're going to get hurt, a lot of people don't know that they're going to have a heart attack today had a patient today. 172 poundsKen Brown I thought you were gonna say 172 years old and I was like wowEric Rieger Six foot one Well built man. 172 pounds 49 years old, has been doing jujitsu and Taekwondo for 30 something years. Heart Attack had a heart attack back in 2012. Undiagnosed cad, the guy's got, which is coronary artery disease, the guy has two stents in. My point is, nobody knows you don't know when you're going to be susceptible to something. So if you can, he was doing what he could, right he was exercising. So he was doing that part, right, but maybe something else that he could have been aware of...Ken Brown I'm telling you, we're going to learn that the endocannabinoid system plays a much bigger role in this and we have seen diseases start happening earlier and all that stuff. Eric Rieger KBMD health GCP code GCP save 20% on your signature package. Ken Brown 100%. So the bottom line is that there's tons of supporting evidence that exists for the involvement of the endocannabinoid system and the pathology of a stroke. Now clearly, this is super complex and we're just getting into it. And these researchers that are coming up with conflicting data about trying to block CB one or trying to agonize CB two, don't, don't do that what we really need to do is just make sure let your body do what it wants to do, when there is sufficient anandamide, which is the one that we know really kind of helps out, it will work like a traffic cop and keep the receptors in check. 2ag is probably necessary for certain things. So if we're doing this show, and you start to well, like I'm like, okay, bottom line is if I'm looking at you, and you're talking to me, and all of a sudden you start slurring your speech and half your face starts drooping. Yeah, you look like you're having a stroke. First thing I'm going to do is run and grab a whole bottle of KBMD CBD and I'm gonna shove it down your throat because at least we know in animal models, that makes a big difference. And then I'm going to go get a bunch of other supplements that we're going to do a whole nother show on that should be protocol for every single stroke center in the US. So much like the butyrate podcast, we got another one that we're getting into and I'm gonna bring a neurologist on and I want to bring an expert so that we can talk about it Eric Rieger Small request, if I'm having a stroke and you're going to do all that CBD also get a speech pathologist to make sure I can swallow.Ken Brown Yes, we will do all that if you're having a stroke, but I'm not trying to be a jerk about this, but we're going to finish the show first.Eric Rieger Cool.Ken Brown So, I mean, if it starts happening, try to do it towards the tail end of the show. You know, do you know that I've had four heart attacks since we've started this. This whole podcast show but I just suck it up, move on. I've had all kinds of health issues.Eric Rieger That Believe it or not is going to go down to the books is our first short episode. Ken Brown Well, we want to do a short episode because I feel like we're getting a little too sciency and I want your feedback. I mean, quite honestly, do you like the science you not like the science? Do you want the guest? Do you not want the guest? But when I find stuff like this, I have to let it out. And if you gave me Two hours, I'd be talking for two hours. So this is just a way to control the amount of vomit that I do right here. But it's so cool. How are we not doing this? Eric Rieger I don't know. But I think I think will change though. And thanks every single week and thanks to Paul. we're gaining viewers. We're gaining listeners. This last week was a huge spike in the last seven shows. So thank you.Ken Brown And you want to know what people are reaching out on their Insta they're messaging me on Instagram and they're asking medical questions. I love that I'm we're going to do shows on that stuff. So if you've got questions, let's do this. Eric Rieger Definitely. that's gonna do it for episode number 34. That was strokes and the endocannabinoid system. We will in the show notes, go ahead and add unrefined bakery, their offer is still good. So save 20% if you want to have keto friendly, no gluten, paleo friendly, whatever kind of meal that you're after, and you feel like you can't have bread, they've got the solution for you unrefinedbakery.com use code, gutcheck and save 20% Ken Brown Yeah,so once again, please do us a big favor. What we're trying to do is really spread this message of functional health. share it with everybody, get people calling in, get people asking because we've got the resources. we're gaining a little bit of traction here and this can be really fun. This was such an eye opener for me. Endocannabinoid system and strokes. All because somebody said my dad had a stroke Ken Brown and Tim power thanks for reaching out. certainly appreciate it. gut check project. In the books go to gut check project. com share, like and share and we appreciate it.

Episode 131 of the Jason & Scot show was recorded on Thursday, May 10th 2018. http://jasonandscot.com Join your hosts Jason "Retailgeek" Goldberg, SVP Commerce & Content at SapientRazorfish, and Scot Wingo, Founder and Executive Chairman of Channel Advisor as they discuss the latest news and trends in the world of e-commerce and digital shopper marketing. Transcript Jason: [0:25] Welcome to the Jason and Scott show this is episode 131 being recorded on Thursday May 10th, 2018 I'm your host Jason retailgeek Goldberg and as usual I'm here with your co-host Scot Wingo. Scot: [0:40] Hey Jason and welcome back Jason Scott show listeners. Jason our podcast schedule did not allow for it so we missed May 4th so I'm going to use this opportunity to hit rewind go in the time machine and wish you a late fee May 4th May the force be with you. Jason: [0:59] Thanks. As I hope you know I was thinking of you on May 4th I was kind of sad that we didn't get a chance to talk and I was carefully following your social media feeds to see if you would like post any any pictures of you like, with memorabilia are in costume or something so what what what did you do for May 4th. Scot: [1:18] Yeah I'm soaps first of all I don't know if you know or not but May 1st kind of controversy in the hardcore Star Wars community. I don't have a lot of passion on this but a lot of people feel like it's kind of like our Hallmark holiday in the Star Wars world because the movie came out on May 25th so everyone's like what the heck made for Seattle. Funny pun but we should really be celebrating May 25th so just some fun diversion Star Wars. Factor for cocktail parties so I celebrated. I buy first I do have about cosplayer so I was not a Princess Leah or anything this year but I do have some pretty awesome Crocs from our friends at Crocs have some Stormtroopers and some cheese, this year I decided, tour of the Stormtroopers which was exciting and then I have a new Han Solo movie jacket that I got that's pretty cool it's kind of retro 70s kind of kick, jacket exciting thing for me on May 4th was I had an inkling that tickets will go on sale for the Han Solo movie so I was able to jump on those work some Fandango Magic, and secure up, have good set of tickets for myself in a bunch of friends so going to go see that on the 24th at 7 p.m. you're welcome to fly in from Chicago and see what this would love to have you. Jason: [2:41] If I can get a hall pass from my wife I'm totally doing it. Scot: [2:45] What you can bring her and Beta key we got room for all you guys. Jason: [2:48] That would be fun in honor of you I missed May 4th but on May 5th I took baby geek to Toys R Us cuz I was kind of worried. That he was never going to get to go to a Toys R Us and I I tried very hard to interest him in the the land speeder bed II it was not a sale. Scot: [3:10] What is just couldn't did like it. Jason: [3:14] So we spent like he's very into Vehicles so we spent about 4 hours in the little electric vehicle section of Toys R Us. And I got heat he drove everything from the like Frozen themed Beetle through the the yellow Lamborghini and he on his own volition pics. This GM Silverado two seater pickup truck. [3:45] Yeah which made my my in-laws from the Flint Michigan extremely extremely proud and so we we bought this. The Tesla of a toys right like it's an electric vehicle and. I am now officially the last member of this this long-standing Detroit family to build a GM vehicle. Scot: [4:07] Cooley schedule pickup truck you can pull off shotgun on the back there real cowboys. Jason: [4:13] Exactly there's no gun rack yet but let me just say it was a we live right across the street from a park so we drive it over to that Park and he's already picked up about the four ladies that he's taken for a ride back he was very smart took down the two seater. Scot: [4:27] Nice Draco. Jason: [4:28] Yeah that's a chip off the old block but that's way more advanced than they block the original block. Scot: [4:34] 4 hours in a Toys R Us is a that's pretty that's a long time in a Toys R Us was it so tell me about you guys are there obviously liquidating it was it was a kind of the ones I've been it's been super depressing hip I was yours. Jason: [4:47] Well that's right I find Toys R Us just depressed right before they went bankrupt they were somewhat depressing because it's like you have all these fun childhood memories and it just. Not that fun or inspirational of a, environment these days but this particular store I'd say is early in the liquidation so it it absolutely felt like. Like they had a full inventory of stuff in the store didn't feel like the the selection was thinning at all and you know the deals weren't super deep yet. So it was enough heat my son will never remember the trip it was fun for me to say I've took him and I do think he had a really good time. Scot: [5:27] And you have pictures and they are in a pickup truck so it's good. Jason: [5:30] Exactly a pickup truck that by the way why doesn't fit in my condo. Scot: [5:35] So you had to pay for a parking spot. Jason: [5:40] I am I am bartering with a neighbor to share one of their extra. Scot: [5:44] She like the most expensive toys. Jason: [5:48] Well and the U-Haul truck I had to rent to drive it home yeah. Scot: [5:51] Cool well wouldn't be a Jason Scott show without some Amazon news but today. We are going to start with Walmart news because they have been ruling the headlines to Big transaction so first of all about 2 weeks ago go rumors started swirling that they were looking to divest of their, UK grocery brand which I think is asthma. Jason: [6:17] Exactly right. Scot: [6:19] And they ended up selling that for 10 billion to Sansbury so that's interesting cuz they bought that 528 years ago. And it hasn't really grown has been kind of growth anchor for them so you know that that has been a bit of a black eye I don't know what they paid for it I think. I think is pretty even said that they sold it for about what they paid for it but it it hasn't been a huge success so then on the heels of that they turned around and this week acquired. The majority share of Flipkart India has very strict rules around for an ownership so they. My understanding is they can't own a hundred percent of it yet there's some path 200%, but they bought 77% for 16 billion and I think you do the math on that at the Vets out to value of, 28 to 22 billion dollars total for for a Flipkart so you know they they kind of exited the UK and then went into India with the proceeds. It was an interesting discussion on CNBC so you know this is here we are it's been. Couple weeks since Amazon announced their first quarter which which recovered on the show was just amazing and if you remember my free cash flow discussion there just pumping. Billions of dollars if 16 billion dollars is about what they're spending into quarters just for growth an Amazon just just out of free cash flow so. And so interesting CNBC discussion cuz what happened is the Walmart stock did not react well to this transaction thin and it is hard to cuz it's kinda like we did this m&a didn't work out so we're selling it and the good news is we kind. [7:54] Came out relatively unscathed in the UK. By the way we're going to take this plus $16 more and we go buy something even smaller so they don't disclose the revenue of Flipkart of the GMD but. All indications would be that it's not as large as as as though or you know even close to $16 I would you know the last I've heard it's like. 2 to 5 billion and GMP and then if you can't put a 15% agreed on that you know this is a smaller. Sub billion-dollar business Revenue was probably so pretty interesting. The normal discussion ensues which is it's not fair Amazon gets to spend so much but Walmart doesn't so it's kind of interesting to see that, play out with this transaction where you see yeah I don't know how involved he was you may have some inside of that but this is a very much feels like Mark Lori kind of saying look we. We got to be aggressive in India we got to get out in front of Amazon and outflank them and and. You're not to do that and you take grocery. We need to be in India so it feels like. Doing the right things they're not getting credit which I'm sure must be frustrating inside a couple more quick things there, eBay was kind of a big winner in this because about 6 months ago they invested 500 million into Flipkart they folded. EBay. I n into it and then now that position is worth 1.5 billion so nice three-bagger or 3x of their money, and I think they got free to go and it's not clear if they're just going to spin it off for relaunch but but they'll come back in India as eBay. I n. [9:28] With a nice warchest from the transaction so so kudos to the corporate development team anyway hopefully there, at least enjoying some extra pizza or something like that Jason what did you think about this deal. Jason: [9:40] Yeah well first. Just as a reminder to Wisner is the reason that this gets so much players is, you know any is a potentially huge Market second most populous country in the world you know and rapidly evolving, population with with an enhanced spending power and very little, Commerce penetration brutal e-commerce penetration in the country so tons of growth and so you know flipcart is the biggest player but Amazon has been, China indigenous way, build a business in India and Amazon is already the second biggest player in India and is actually growing faster I think then put card so, it's interesting you know Amazon try to do indigenous we compete in China, and that didn't go very well it's a lot. You know people are like you know they won't repeat that mistake in India and you know so there's a lot of rumors and Amazon was bidding against the Amazon, Amazon was betting against Walmart for Flipkart alot of us back you I don't know where you were on this cop but you know I assumed Walmart was going to get it, because in my mind Amazon was only, would have been interested in foot cart if it was a good value like that they had no interest in overpaying on some strategic basis for Flipkart whereas, and I feel like Walmart really you know does have an interest in. [11:13] Establishing some some Global credibility you know Walmart wasn't particularly successful in China struggle in the mature Market in the UK and flipped Asda and so kind of felt like, you know we seen Amazon reached for Acquisitions before like Jet and that or Walmart rather and it wasn't surprising to see him. Reach again this time and supporting me almost wonders if Amazon sword I intentionally tried to beat him up a little bit. Scot: [11:39] Yeah there was some talk on CNBC that, Amazon bid 2 billion above the 16th but the founders chose the Walmart did and it wasn't really clear what was going on with that so I don't know if that was just rumor or actually officially reported and I couldn't find it in writing anywhere so, but I do think Amazon was either really interested in it or. It was kind of a win-win that were they made Walmart really pay up for it so it'll be interesting to see how it plays out. Jason: [12:11] The one thing I did I do believe is that Walmart was a more attractive buyer because there's a less likelihood of, regulatory impediments because Amazon is the number two player if they were to acquire the number one player there there would have been some some. Further regulatory hurdles in in India I'm so maybe I was just a safer safer way for the four, stop thinking and Company to get the money back so be interesting while Amazon is there anyone else that Amazon would want to buy there or will they just you know continue to go to loan and try to do better than they did in China. Scot: [12:51] There's always been kind of a third player Snapdeal and in that round I talked about or eBay and Dustin 500 million there was rumors they were going to merge they didn't and I really heard much about Snapdeal lately so that maybe something Amazon, could pick up. Probably relatively cheap now cuz they're kind of left at the party without a chair in the music is stopped so I don't know if they really want to Amazon you know their acquisition strategy is. Primarily. To get into something to don't have in their dardi have a Marketplace they have invested heavily and FBA for that Marketplace what are the rules in India is you can't operate one p as a foreign entity and I think Flipkart has enough for investors they can't be one piece so all these are pure what I would call a pure Market Place model me they don't have a retail component, Subway Flipkart and Amazon have been furiously building out the photo centers though to help their sour basis I don't think Snapdeal had the investment. Not to do that and they got left behind so it said they're kind of the distant third player there that you know I'm paper Amazon could pick him up to you no time to continue to be ahead but I think they'll just got there. Jason: [14:00] Yeah I feel you in a lot of markets you would you potentially acquire Local Company because that would would get you license to operate more as a local company but I think India has a strict rules about, ownership percentages that mean like you know Snapdeal word indigenous Indian company in Amazon acquired them they would then no longer be considered indigenous. That the feminine side is interesting to cuz one of the challenges in India is not just lack of payment centers its lack of infrastructure overall its its roads and delivery services and it's a very fragmented Market inside. My my sense is that the Amazon efforts and the fbar. The 10th potentially super lucrative because literally like they're building a whole capability that you know it's not like if you don't. Use Amazon you would just use UPS to deliver this. Scot: [14:54] Yeah. Jason: [14:56] So that's interesting and then I guess it's the one you know if is Amazon really wanted to spend some money to jump-start their presents and India the other thing would be interesting as there is a big payments player there which is paytm. I have no idea if they are for sale I think that's you know big investment from SoftBank and $0.10 but that. [15:17] Payments tend to be a big driver of digital Commerce platforms and obviously in China like I would argue that $0.10 and all I pay are. [15:28] In a big drivers and so you can imagine that would be a strategic place to invest in India as well. Scot: [15:34] Yeah that's one. Jason: [15:35] So some other Walmart news. The we talked a lot about retail strategies in general towards what I called owned Brands so essentially. Treating brands that are exclusive to the retailer that you know usually are a lot more than private label its. An aspirational brand with its own positioning in marketing in Walmart launched a new one of those last month called all is well home which is kind of there. Home Goods brand its bedding and mattresses. And in and of itself that would have been interesting that gets added to the stable of Brands they bought like bonobos and ModCloth. The weather things that I found interesting about all is well home is that Walmart actually launched. I stand alone you are out so rather than selling all's well on Walmart.com or even selling it on jet.com you buy all is well from. All is well home. Com in so that is a sort of, further step in the own brand a play then we've seen before like you know cat and Jack from Target the super successful brand that it doesn't have its own URL Rocketfish is a super successful brand, Best Buy it doesn't have its own URL like even you know the world's most successful own brand Alexa, you know obviously I'm buying Amazon like it doesn't have its own URL so interesting. [17:08] You know to see if that's a trend that we see more of his these Brands launching with their own URLs and a particularly interesting to me inside baseball thing. Walmart has built super robust e-commerce platform that they going to spend billions of dollars developing overtime call Pangea and when they watch this all is well home.com all is well home is running on Shopify. [17:35] Yep so. Scot: [17:36] Ya Allah be with your Shopify to lunch kind of a micro set one clarification on Alexa is he was on does on the yard all day just don't tell Alexis on it it it it like. You you you obviously know but like if if people haven't looked Alexa was this company Amazon acquired this goes back into the 90s and preacher like 9899 and you would web web users would webmasters wood, it's all set of tools from Alexa and it would help them rank various websites and you would see your rank so it's kind of shared. Metrics kind of thing not many people use it today because the the date is pretty. Yep sketchy and but Amazon only are on the brands they use that when they came up the product they I guess they looked on their sweet of trademarks of the owned and pick that one out to to have the Alexa brand come out. Jason: [18:29] Yep and I think I use it as I could be to be site for Alexa right like isn't it more for like people that want to partner in the Echo System. Scot: [18:36] What else Alexis still has this traffic kind of thing and they try to turn it into a marketing stack so it's kind of a PPC tool kind of a thing a lot of the companies that did so he's metrics. Headed that way like a lot of comparison shopping engines have gone that way like next time but there's a lot of them don't have a ton of tricks that I've never heard of anyone using the Alexa tools. Jason: [18:58] Gotcha, and then in addition to this new all is well home website Walmart also launched a pretty substantial redesign of walmart.com, somewhat controversial like it's a very minimalist design that you know doesn't have a real loud Walmart branding to it so it's the spark is what they Walmart cause the, the start of Starbucks logo and you don't want you scroll down from the homepage you get a very minimalist search bar at the top of the the site with just the spark and the what the word Walmart doesn't show up anywhere. Scot: [19:41] Just freaked me out cuz I was working on a presentation and I was going to know do a screenshot of a Walmart marketplace, and I was looking at us like how is even going to know this is Walmart they're going to have to recognize the spark because the word Walmart literally kind of once you leave the homepage it melts away and there's no the menu becomes hamburger menu, yeah they moved the mobile metaphor to the desktop and yeah it's kind of. Kind of wild and then you know as you scroll on shop you have this persistent search bar hamburger menu and Spark which takes you back to walmart.com they really have no corporate branding so. Come on or something so it's kind of saying. You know where we want to give you more space for search results then our corporate brand and then also you know there's not a lot of browse here so once you leave the homepage and get in to search results there's not. There's nothing like a lot of bread crumbs I found I got a little lost their it took me awhile to kind of like get familiar with what's going on so it's a bit dark but it's interesting I was doing our desktop I'm sure it's great on mobile I bet on mobile it's it's kind of. Feels really good on desktop it feels kind of strange it's going to take so long Easter. Jason: [20:57] Yeah I think overall it's way more visual so images are much more prominent and bigger and you know for example like on the pdp's the the skew images, take up way more real estate than they used to and so I think that's part of drinking that bar down is to have more real estate for the images and then you know the thing that Mark Lori has really hit on in the new design is, that it's, substantially more personalized for each individual visitor but also for each SKU category so you go to Department landing pages and they, that there's a lot of Rich editorial content that's in very different on the dog food from home from apparel and all those sorts of things. So pretty big operation for Walmart the thing I've seen most people complain about is not the lack of branding grocery is super Promenade on it and there's a grocery button and it takes you a separate URL with a completely different design aesthetic, so I think they've that's been the big critique I have seen of the site but I, I believe the grocery refreshes and fight as well so I suspect they'll they'll match up eventually, and then some other news on Walmart Last Mile, they've added some new delivery partners and they're phasing out some of their old delivery partner so so, about a year ago Walmart you announced that they were doing a lot of them at home delivery for book groceries and general merchandise and they announced Lyft and Uber is. [22:32] As initial partners and it now looks like they're phasing both of those vendors out they, they have used several third-party deliveries other delivery services they added Postmates to it. And then an interesting one of me is they added doordash as a grocery delivery partner. And the reason that's interesting is part of this I've never seen doordash deliver anything but restaurants. Scot: [23:00] Yeah I know I saw him at shoptalk they you know they were talking about their reason restaurants lovers they only do food so yeah. You have prepared meals being food like restaurant food so they the kind of I guess when Walmart come calls you yeah you take that phone call. Jason: [23:18] My recollection was that the CEO for. Cheesecake Factory was highlighting why they were such a good partner because they only did food and I I suspected the CEO of doordash already knew that he was in the throes of appreciating that getting highlighted so much. [23:38] But it is interesting you know there are all these delivery services tons of people Outsourcing delivery right now like one of the interesting things it seems like. Walmart is picking players that are willing to provide the delivery service but don't insist on owning the the delivery interface so you know I sent you that would provide delivery is sort of API if you're well so that Walmart could own. The digital interface unit the big delivery service that Walmart has never partnered with his instacart and you in front of the speculation Why is the instacart. You know that so far has it seems like they've always insisted on being the the front end for all the orders that are fulfilled through instacart. Scot: [24:21] Got it said they're really just using the 1099 workers of these hooks have you go to Walmart or in the app do you do your groceries and it's delivered by one of these guys pretty probably unbranded out imagine right because you're not using their apps. Jason: [24:34] Yeah. Scot: [24:36] Just yeah just like. Jason: [24:37] Yeah it's a white label delivery service. And it is you know these are all pilots in different markets at the moment and there is a pretty substantial pie with it actually does use Walmart W-2 employees, and this was a system where they essentially like offering an additional gig to all of the existing. Walmart employees that you can also do deliveries and I think it was some controversy that you know, like when they first announced his people sort of misunderstood and thought Walmart wasn't wasn't going to be paying their employees for these deliveries. Scot: [25:13] Got it. This reminds me I forgot to put this in the show notes but I was at a Target the other day, and it's one of the newer ones and I noticed they had code off a part of the parking lot and it says it's got this kind of interesting that's got two arrows and it says Line 1 line 2 and then it's all blocked off and it says coming soon pick up area, passing and then now since I've done that pretty much every Target I go to has that and I've been deprived 6 targets the field research also known as looking for Star Wars toys but anyway so I was wondering if you know anything what's going on there. Jason: [25:53] Yeah so they've announced a pretty substantial expansion of there curbside pickup program again for Grocery and General Merchandise and is a reminder, maybe 18 months ago they started a curbside pickup pilot using a vendor called curbside and they they abruptly cancelled that pilot. And then fast forward about nine months later they bought a competitor curbside called shipped and so these, so they now own that capability and so these these, does drive-thru lanes are the new curbside experience that's being managed by shipped and that's a shipt, and shipped does both curbside pickup for for customers that want to swing by the store and pick him up at their convenience and they also do do home delivery ship from store, On Target Staffing. Scot: [26:51] Okay so it's not just for shift couriers will shift couriers go there too. Jason: [26:56] I do know I don't know if that's a good question. Scot: [26:59] So shift is going to walk it from the store to that look herb not a Target play. Jason: [27:05] Yeah well so that shipped are target employees but so. Scot: [27:09] I guess you. Jason: [27:10] Yeah so. And the pilot is an exclusively using employees that were formerly shipped they could be originally target employees it's using some software and infrastructure that ship bought so that ship tones so one of the big things. Curbside pickup sounds really easy but it there's actually more complication right like do you. Schedule a time when the customer have to promise to come pick him up or do you use geofencing on the customer's mobile phone if you was geofencing how do you you know avoid, taking their groceries out that are perishable out to the curb when the customer just drives by the store to go get gas before they come to the store and, you know if you're using geofencing in the customers mobile app how do you avoid like burning through their battery and having the customer, uninstall your app because it's there the biggest battery hog on the phone like they're there are all these edge cases in complications and so some of these vendors like curbside and shipped. A big part of their IP is mitigating a bunch of the Zedge cases than in the case of curbside they're actually. X Apple employees that where the the geolocation team at Apple that that launched curbside so that's that's. You know very much what they highlight is one of their core competencies. Scot: [28:28] Walmart curbside you pull up and you call this number and I've, people people Rave about it but there it does fail a lot of times like sometimes you call that number and no one calls and you know, and sometimes you call it and they have no idea who you are so there's still a lot of kinks in and making the stuff work. Jason: [28:48] Yeah all of these retards are struggling to make them perfect and I would even say like all of them are piloting multiple experiences so in some Walmarts there's that SMS experience there are some Walmarts that are sort of drive-thru, venues in Walmart even have some Pilots where it's, curbside off site so they have dedicated pickup locations similar to the. The like Amazon what is it called Amazon. Scot: [29:20] Go pick up. Jason: [29:22] Trash pickup I think is actually. [29:24] Yeah so what's a different permutations out there I don't think the world is a landed on one but it's it's an area where I think all these retailers feel like they can have a differentiated customer experience if they're the ones that, The Canal at and your point it's it's can definitely be hit and miss at the moment. Scot: [29:43] Brickell well it wouldn't be a Jason Scott show without some Amazon news. Amazon news new your margin is there. What the Amazon news I wanted to throw out there. It was kind of a, quite week for Amazon there's only like four or five things when I'm usually there's 10 and we have to cut it back the one that's kind of near and dear to my heart is in the auto category, and if you're not a long-term listening to you may not realize this but I am a Serial entrepreneur my third company was Channel visor started that still exist, German there started that in 2001 and then left around middle of 2015 on a day-to-day basis but still involved at a board level and then started another company, call Spiffy man we are on demand Car Care who started with car washing and detailing Nevada Doyle change and a bunch of other things were in five markets so I'm, I'm not keenly watching The Car Care space to understand what's going on there in the subsection of tires there's been a lot of interesting things there, there's a lot of Pilots of on demand tire sales and installation but that's really hard to do in a mobile kind of setting because the equipment required install tires as non-trivial, I and the skews of all the tires we could probably do it a whole show on this Jason, you and I have both been involved in auto parts for a while but it is a is a very complex you set to say the least just for the tires not even counting all the rest of of what goes on with with auto parts around fitment what not but this week There's a really interesting. [31:27] Announcement partnership between Sears and Amazon this is not the first time these companies have kind of had interactions before, so Sears is actively selling Kenmore and Craftsman on Amazon and. That is allegedly going pretty well so the way this is going to work is it satire partnership so it'll be able to do is buy your tires on Amazon, and then install them at a Sears for a nominal fee so this is. This is one of the challenges of buying tires online they're a lot cheaper than if you went to your local tire store but you know. If you've ever done this you literally get a giant cardboard box full of. For very heavy tires sent to you and then you then it's up to you to kind of holidays around and take them to your local tire installer and say please install these tires I didn't buy from you so it's a, it's not a great customer experience to say the least and no mirror I'm not aware of any mere mortals that can install their own tires that that's a non-trivial problem to solve. So is this going to work is starting to pile it in 47. What the locations they're called Sears Auto Centers and they're going to start an 8 cities and, Adobe in 47 of the store is Nate said he's now serious has 400 locations in 21. 200 technicians out there so they do have a really big footprint around tire installation Auto Care and the way to work is this so, you go to Amazon your Prime user they don't supposed to say this but I'm imagining this will be a prime only feature you select your tires that you want to buy so it's so you get a nice lovely. [33:02] Mommy upset at michelins it's up to you the consumer to figure out that they fit on your vehicle or not, Anna. Then at checkout you will get an option just like an Amazon Locker or something like that where it'll say Jason you live in Chicago and we have a. Pilot with the Sears near your house there and would you like to have these shipped to your Sears Auto Center on 1 Wacker Lane and have them installed for you you choose that and then, you are given three possible appointment times that you choose and then it wouldn't when you show up at that Sears. Center at that time they want saw your tires for a nominal fee you don't have to buy the tires from them obviously. So that's that sounds good and what I have learned the hard way on the stuff is you know the, in Excel and I call it these things work really well in and go awesome but you know you mentioned the edge cases of curbside I can think of like 60 edge cases here the number one I am going to call is, getting the wrong tires the vehicle of this is going to be a pretty common thing. OEM screen very specific about tires so if you buy a Lexus they have very certain tires they want you to put on there there's a lot of decisions around if you need one tire should you buy all 4 how do they wear, rotating the tires the same time there's like a Plexi there that's just really hard to capture an e-commerce is that that's going to be a challenge and then the scheduling of this is going to be tricky but I've learned about. [34:39] These customers that want you know automated car care is. They really like convenience and there's not much convenient to me like I don't say to myself a while I really want to go. Hang out at the Sears Auto Center for an hour while I install my tires so so that that's kind of a, of the places that install tires. All of mine are are inside malls inside Sears inside of malls so you have to deal with mall traffic the mall parking and all that kind of stuff to get in there so, I'm going to be interesting to see how this place but you know it is good news for Sears at any Lifeline when you're drowning is helpful their stock was up something like 17% this is like, yeah they're at $3 they bounced at like 3:50 and never was super excited, that's like the most their socks prison in in years now but I'm a little skeptical about the user experience on this one and see how they're going to nail it especially with that once yours takes over the time this thing I'm just not really sure those windows are going to work and how engaged this this year's. Low-level employees are going to be on it. Jason: [35:42] Yeah and you you could imagine there's all kind you know suddenly Sears is competing with Amazon for pricing on the tires that Steve Sears historically sold them all those sorts of things to write like. Scot: [35:54] Yeah there's Channel conflict now it's serious maybe thinking is, okay at least I got the customer in here now we can try to sell them on breaks in an oil but I know thing I have found is when when you talk to people about. Car Care experiences the number one experience people hate especially females is the upsell experience also known as the Jiffy Lube experience they hate going in for a. $50 oil change and leaving Having spent $400 they come home and their husbands like. What the heck you know why I just spent $40 and they're like well I got new brakes why you know, balance didn't check the shimmy on every tire and I got a cabin filter, and I got the premium oil filter and so you know there's there's actually lawsuits around all the stuff around the the upselling of these kinds of things to make these Services profitable has resulted in a really bad customer experience so, and then you when I think about Casey and and the Deloitte model of the bifurcation you know we deal with this every day at Sophie, the that customer on the convenient side do I think is Amazon Prime user they like zero friction in their life because Amazon stream to have you, you press 2 buttons and stuff shows up your house 2 days later what could be more convenient so it's interesting to see how smoothly this goes because that customer is really really hard to please and sending them to a Sears Center where I think just give me some upsell and some challenges going to be interesting to see how that works. Jason: [37:25] Yeah for sure I mean it's funny one of the I think probably the original Legacy player in the spaces Tire Rack and their model as they they essentially sell you that tired of it you Commerce and then they they put together their own. Network of independent dealers that they chip the tires to you and you go to that dealer in that dealer would install it for you, and there's some very happy customers but they they have a lot of unhappy customers if you read the ratings and reviews and when you talk to people like one of the biggest problems they have is. Tire Rack shops those tires to that independent Tire Dealer and a customer comes in between the time that the customers about the tires comes in and, the the deer sounds that that customers tires to someone else. Scot: [38:11] You can see that happening at Sears to you know if they don't have him get it off yeah. Jason: [38:14] Yeah that's what I mean do I like you think about the the advanced things I fit Manton all these other issues but like just simple like you know commingling of inventory and those kinds of things could all all be challenges that I have to get worked out. [38:29] Any other Amazon news outside of tires. Scot: [38:34] I'm thirsty if we had mentioned on the show that Kohl's and Amazon are Partners give us an update on that. Jason: [38:40] Yep so last year Kohl's announces pilot where you could bring Amazon purchases, to a cold store to return them and they sent you became a return center for Amazon that's now in 42 stores and if they're their quarterly earnings call they the CEO called that program a homerun and essentially said, did they had a discernible increase in traffic and all the stores that accepted Amazon returns and that that seems totally viable to me that's it. Felt like a win-win it's one of the rare partner with Amazon cases where as far as I can tell. Kohl's really isn't giving up any data to Amazon right so it's not like. [39:24] Amazon is getting to meet and steal at Kohl's customer as a result of this this is really Kohl's getting to meet an Amazon customer and gets an opportunity to surprise and Delight them and sell them something when they bring their Amazon returns in, in sounds like like it's working well for them so far much earlier but this, this month Chico's started selling their apparel on Amazon, and Shelley broader the CEO there you know is saying that that immediately after the product went live on Amazon there seeing an uptick in traffic to the stores and today they will do I feel like, by virtue of being on the Amazon platform they're getting an opportunity to introduce the Chico's bran to a bunch of prime customers for the first time which is then, driving more sales to the stores in Chico's let you buy an Amazon return in the chico store so they're getting some visits that way and in that that seems interesting I I guess I'm. More skeptical in the chico story than I am Nicole story. Scot: [40:32] You don't the one I'm skeptical to azra saying that what occurred to me was the podcast we had with dorel juvenile wear, they had done a fair amount of AMS and mg and it drove store. No traffic for them they don't own stories but it drove like Downstream Costco Walmart Target kind of visits so I could see where I think it could make sense is if as part of this launch Chico's went and they not only buy it you know a bunch of headline Search terms for like Chico's but, yeah maybe now you starting to browse Amazon and you're seeing you know women's blouse and pants and skirt and now people, you just having listings wouldn't do this but if they had a fair amount of marketing budget I think that could drive people in the stores. Jason: [41:18] Yep no I I could definitely see that I think in general Chico's has a lot of head winds and. [41:26] Yeah they're in malls there you know where someone older customer they're in their parallel space which it has a bunch of indigenous challenges until you know a lot of us as soon they were on Amazon because they were somewhat distressed in in, needed to find some some some new eyeballs so there's there's a school of thought that it wouldn't take that many net new customers walking in the Chico's to be favorable to Chico's. Scot: [41:48] Oh my my middle schooler would say burn. Jason: [41:51] Yeah yeah not don't mean it to be pretty good harsh but you know, they are one of the first players in this category that right so I'm certainly watching and trying to learn, we talked a little bit in the Walmart case about owned Brands Amazon of courses is dominating the own brand space, and they watched it but I think isn't another new one that we haven't talked about in the show yet they wants to wag which is there pet food brand. They may have had a few skews but they they want a whole line of dog foods and what's interesting to me is. How robust the content and selling on Amazon is around wag so you know you go to the the pet department on Amazon now and it's a. Personalized editorial Rich page it doesn't it doesn't feel like. Just another page in Amazon catalog it feels like a real landing page for pet owners and then the the department Pages for wag are are super robust and. As is usually the case. When Amazon makes pdp's for their owned Brands they really execute all the best practices so whenever we're talking to Brandon about you know what what kind of content they have to have in their pdp's. You know we always use the Amazon owned Brands as examples in these wax cubes are going to be another another good example like they're there very long Rich pages that have a lot more content to help you feel good about you know finding the right food for your dog then. [43:27] Yeah some of the national brands that have been selling on Amazon. Scot: [43:30] Is MacGyver enjoying some wag dog food. Jason: [43:33] So MacGyver is a super Elite one percenter that's probably eating better than I am so no. He get some fancy Boutique food from you know I'm a cow that was probably like massage by a Japanese Wagyu dude. He probably eats the best in her family and he also officially has the most expensive haircuts in her family so. Scot: [44:01] Man if you guys are adopting a sign me up you get out of an electric vehicle. Jason: [44:08] The three-year-old gets his own car and in parking spot and the the dog gets a groomer that comes to the house and gives him a you know full day spa treatment so yeah everyone in my family but me is pretty high on the hog so I you know. Scot: [44:21] Songs going to pay for all this. Jason: [44:25] Exactly that's what you asked you were you were posting some new job listings on Twitter the other day that you found interesting and I'm like I might need to do some of those two moonlight. Scot: [44:36] Yeah I thought you would be a good applicant for one of those interesting there or is this was a recruiter on LinkedIn you saying hey I'm working with a large top-tier cpg brand that's looking for a head of Commerce and your Amazon experience is a is a would-be is a, very strong nice to have kind of thing so that was interesting like a year ago no one would have thought to make that part of a job requirement for e-commerce of the CPT and now it's it's kind of. Top top line. Jason: [45:05] Yeah that night I think that's actually interesting and I probably would have replied but you also forwarded it to our friend David who I feel like his way more qualified and so I didn't want to apply and then get rejected. [45:18] So they were also two big Tech conferences this week that we generally follow for big news that's going to affect the Commerce Pace Facebook's big developer conference, and I think there's some controversy I'm still calling it a fate but I think you've heard some people call it fate. Scot: [45:39] Yeah. Jason: [45:41] So if you don't know what the official ruling is there but they had their conference two weeks ago and then this week was Google IO which is there big developer conference. Did you have any takeaways from the either of those. Scot: [45:54] There's a lot of stuff to talk about outside of retail but I think probably the big news for this podcast is there was a lot of retail news you know so we've we've had you know. Google talking about. You know they're making some changes in Commerce so we've covered on the show with their new Express is Comic-Con Marketplace is how I think about it but they did tweet. Google Express and then Facebook had in the last. Fates or Fates they have increasingly down a lot around messenger and talking about transactions their favorite company talk about their is everlane where do they show the post transaction messaging happening in Facebook Messenger. I saw no e-commerce kind of related content from both these guys you maybe the big news for me at Facebook is a reorg they're tired of all the team and the guy that was, CEO of PayPal, who they moved Messenger to blockchain Technologies so it's kind of like he, felt like to me they threw this against the wall or let's go create a WeChat we bow type you know chat. Commerce teen and it feels like either. Either he is moving on cuz he's not interested or there said let's try watching now so yeah I may be reading too much into that but I thought it was pretty interesting there. Jason: [47:19] Yeah and I think I was part of a bigger reorg I think a bunch of execs kind of moved around so it's. It's going to be interesting to see how that all plays out from Google I O I saw a few little things like in years past or much more substantial announcements that I felt were sort of court of Commerce. This year you know before the conference Google Consolidated several payment Technologies and so now it's just Google pay you know which consolidated, Google Wallet in Google pay and Android pay and that, that is a digital wallet that's been available on apps on the Google echo system for a while but they extended it to the web so you can now use if you are a Google pay user you can. Pee in a Chrome browser in a mobile web situation if the is the e-commerce site supports that. So there's a bunch of mobile web sites out there that you know would probably benefit from adding support for Google pay. [48:22] Apple did that earlier in the year and so you know there's a couple reasons to update your your mobile web experience. Google did announce some new versions of the Google home that have screens in them so you know in theory that could be Richard Commerce experiences you know I'm not. I'm not sure that the Alexa show where the screen has his been you know the the the fast runner in the Alexa family and so I I kind of suspect. Is it that the Google home screen will be even more niche. [48:58] Google have some does have some really interesting mobile technology so you know a big one that's getting a lot of traction is amp. Which is a technology for rendering lighter-weight faster rendering mobile pages and originally you know it had some really great user experiences but it came with a lot of baggage. Can I type A constrained by Google and Google's been spinning it off and making it much more open and adding a bunch of capabilities that are a lot more e-commerce friendly. And in their continuing to do that so you know some of the the complaints that people had about amp for an e-commerce site they've. There a dressing in announcements from Google IO so definitely of your eCommerce site. I would be thinking about implementing amp in my mobile experience in in the other big mobile technology that Google really was first to Market with his Progressive web apps which is this kind of notion. Being able to download binary code on demand that have a real app like experience without having to force the user to go through the App Store and download an app and another password and reinstalled the app and. And all of those sorts of things and said that they're continuing to evolve pwa. [50:19] But that standard is never really got a lot of traction because if it wasn't supported in the Apple echo system. And you know frankly the overwhelming majority of mobile Commerce happens on Apple devices so despite the fact that Google had this great support for pwa. It didn't make a lot of sense for eCommerce sites to implement pwa is because you were only addressing. The minority of the market that were you know Google shoppers. Apple in the most recent operating system you know finally implemented pwazon Safari so now. You know I expect we're going to start seeing that be a best practice as well so at all those Google Technologies together in a couple other things. And almost every conversate on the planet you know could probably do with a pretty substantial Mobile update right now because there are so many new beneficial Technologies. Scot: [51:11] Good thing to do before holiday. Jason: [51:14] Exactly in an if you're going to do that you should probably be starting right now. So feel free to call me at work and we'll take care of you. Scot that's going to be a good place to end it for this week because we we have used auto added a lot of time as we're trying to shorten his up and make him just slightly more concise but if we've left you wanting more or you have any burning questions. I would love to continue the conversation on our Facebook page so jump over there and then drop us a line and then I mean Scott hangs out there almost 24/7 so. And you always you always get a response there and of course if you enjoy this show the best way you can repay us for all the time we put into it is to jump on the iTunes and give us that 5-star review. Scot: [52:02] Thanks for joining so. Jason: [52:04] Until next time happy commercing.

A Truely Beautiful Car! This vintage Riviera has been meticulously restored. It came to Traffic Jamz for an audio installation. The customer wanted to retain the factory look on the dash, so we installed an aftermarket Kenwood CD player in the glove box. An IR repeater was installed to allow for remote control of the CD player while the glove box is closed. The CD player came equipped with Ipod control and Ipod charging. Overall, a fantastic vintage car with a modern sound system.
Lots of stuff going on here! This Yukon Denali is customized to the max. With 9 Video screens, its not your average grocery getter.

The L7's are a patented square subwoofer,supplying the extra decibels needed for deep, musical bass in a mobile audio system. Traffic Jamz also added four JL Audio 6.5" speakers to the rear pillars. We constructed a form to house the speakers and fiberglassed the enclosure. A white vinyl cover was applied to the fiberglass enclosure to match the rest of the interior. This Denali is amazingly loud!
