Paul L. Singer, Abigail Stempson, Beth Bolen Chun, and Andrea deLorimier As we've discussed previously, price gouging has been a focus for enforcers in the past few years, and 2025 is proving no different. In the past month alone, California Attorney General Rob Bonta announced that the California DOJ has opened active investigations into price gouging in the aftermath of the Los Angeles fires (and Los Angeles county increased its penalty for price gouging to $50,000 per violation), New York Attorney General Letitia James issued a warning against price gouging for eggs and poultry amid the national bird flu outbreak, and Arkansas Attorney General Tim Griffin sued Capital City Tree Service for price gouging allegations stemming from severe weather events in the state. This week, Connecticut Attorney General William Tong joined the fray by proposing price gouging legislation that, if passed, would put a novel spin on his state's continued fight against price gouging. https://www.kelleydrye.com/viewpoints/blogs/ad-law-access/connecticuts-shrinkflation-legislation-expanding-state-ags-price-gouging-authority-for-shrinking-product-sizes#:~:text=According%20to%20Attorney%20General%20Tong,do%20not%20also%20reduce%20price.

Blake is interrogated for all the good NAMM info and it turns out he doesn't have anywhere near as much as the guys hoped. Do you care a lot about her your guitars are manufactured? Fender have recently announced there new "Standard" range which is made in Indonesia and the guys talk about whether that actually makes any difference to the quality of the finished article. Brian considers becoming an email scammer in order to get noticed by Musicman and expresses some levels of exasperation about some of the responses to he new MXR Rockman pedal. Richard was impressed with the new Tone King floor amp pedal thang and makes some wild speculation and has also sold a Telecaster. Brian practices firing him on air.

Talking about...Petit TyrantsShflationWeaponizing Others ReligionWe grant people control over little mundane things all the time. Normal people take this power with grace and dignity and only wield power in a manner consistent with the common good. Others plant their little poop emoji flag on their new "Kingdom" and make everyone else's lives a living hell. These are the exact people who should never be allowed sway over the lives of others in any capacity, send them to the mines. You're now the Senior VP of smashing this rock into a smaller rock.We've talked a lot on this show about how the world has been on this downward trend for all of our lifetimes and most of our parents lifetimes. Now we have a new term, "Shflation" it's all the best parts of Shrinkflation and Sh!tflation combined together in a cheaper, smaller and less durable package! Just keep outsourcing it all and cutting corners that's never going to bite us!Religion is a playbook for life, you are born into one, or maybe you choose one later in life, regardless it's yours. When others who don't read the playbook, and actively despise your playbook try to coerce your agreement by misrepresenting your playbook to you, it makes me irate. You want to enforce morality, or ethics, come with your own playbook and make an argument why your book is better. Oh you don't have a book, yours is just about how mine is all lies. Sound to me like you need to STFU!All of that plus news, voicemails, and that all important CPAP UPDATE!

You’d be hard pressed to find a Seinfeld fan who doesn’t know what “shrinkage” is. But in real-life shrinkage is a phenomenon that’s happening all around us and it means, companies are secretly selling us less product for the exact same price or even, at an increased price! In fact, one in three supermarket products have stealthily, shrunk over the past 4 years. And that means, we’re all getting much less product but actually paying more! Really, no really! Edgar Dworsky who is known as “Mr. Consumer” has been a consumer advocate for over 45 years, and he joins Jason and Peter to expose selling scams, and to explain and reveal how many companies rely on and use “shrinkflation" and "skimpflation". *** IN THIS EPISODE: Shrinkflation is legal, so consumer beware. Where have all the local consumer reporters gone? When salad dressings replace oil …for water! The hidden shrinkflation inside dollar stores. How “Party Size” and “New and Improved” trick customers. Toilet paper rolls have 90% less sheets than they had in the 1960’s. Shrinkflation isn’t isolated to your supermarket. What triggers someone to become a consumer advocate? We’re celebrating 75 years of shrinkflation! Jason and Peter share their personal habits relating to expiration dates. The strange lengths Jason takes to postpone eating his bananas!

Marketing technique shrinkflation is becoming more and more common in large retail stores, in particular down to the ongoing war in Ukraine. It sees manufacturers quietly reducing the size of their products, but maintaining prices at the same level. Shrinkflation is often a result of an increase in raw material prices and other production costs, but is seen as a form of hidden inflation and has been heavily criticised in many places. In the context of the current cost of living crisis, it's definitely a sensitive subject. According to Merriam Webster, the portmanteau term was coined by British economist Pippa Malmgren in a tweet back in 2015. Do you have any specific examples? Is shrinkflation illegal?

The most recent data sets in the US for obesity rates and COV-cases share a relationship on colored published maps. In other words, where people are the most unhealthy there is, not magically, higher rates of disease. Americans consume 60% of their daily calories from Ultra-Processed Foods, while children consume 70% from the same source. In the UK the numbers are only slightly lower. The remaining percentages are not filled with magically healthy foods either, and instead with other forms of processed products. Americans love conspiracies but overall fail to realize the size of the health conspiracy we face. We are not only getting to fat to defend our country, or too lazy or unable to work and produce, but the strain then falls on others who further have to pay higher prices for everything from airline tickets to insurance - baed on averages. From traveling in Japan it is clear that no matter where you go or who you talk with, the perception of Americans, beyond the pop-culture, is that they are side-show freak fat, arrogant, trashy, and incredibly stupid and lazy. This is a viewpoint held by more than just the Japanese. This should be embarrassing not only because it paints Americans as useless blobs, but because it suggests that our country is quickly evaporating from self-defeat. It's almost every time we choose to make a fuss over something it is only a result of things like the recent shrinkflation of chips: Americans have been refusing to buy Lay's, Doriotos, Tostitos, etc., because there aren't enough chips in the bag. Now PepsiCo is adding 20% more to XXL bags in select locations. This is America in action - give me more chips or I'm going to be upset and exercise my rights, though not my body.-FREE ARCHIVE & RSS: https://www.spreaker.com/show/the-secret-teachings Twitter: https://twitter.com/TST___Radio Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thesecretteachings WEBSITE (BOOKS, RESUBSCRIBE for early show access): http://thesecretteachings.info Paypal: rdgable@yahoo.com CashApp: $rdgable EMAIL: rdgable@yahoo.com / TSTRadio@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-secret-teachings-with-ryan-gable--5328407/support.

AI models are dramatically speeding up quality checks, helping identify potential issues before they lead to costly or dangerous outcomes.UnitX's AI tools scan cells in 3.5 seconds, compared to 5 minutes for human operators, allowing labor to be reassigned.Richard Ahlfeld of Monolith says AI can halve battery testing time, while Nio Europe is leveraging AI to accelerate battery development.SES AI is using AI models to map new molecules, potentially revolutionizing material discovery for future EV batteries.Patrick Hertzke of McKinsey notes that improving battery chemistry, like pharmaceuticals, takes time but holds tremendous potential for the future.A new LendingTree study reveals just how widespread shrinkflation is in the U.S., with many products shrinking in size while prices stay the same—or even rise—leaving consumers to pay more for less.31% of the 98 supermarket products studied have shrunk over the last four years.Paper products like toilet paper were the most affected, with 60% shrinking since 2019.Charmin Ultra Strong rolls shrank by 15.4%, while prices per 100 sheets increased by 31.4%.Breakfast cereals and candy have also been impacted, with Reese's shrinking by 11% and its price skyrocketing by 68.2%.Matt Schulz of LendingTree notes "Shrinkflation adds insult to injury for already frustrated consumers."Hosts: Paul J Daly and Kyle MountsierGet the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/ Read our most recent email at: https://www.asotu.com/media/push-back-email

DEI is getting a rebrand because the commie doesn't stop when you catch them. They just change tactics. Shrinkflation at the drive thru. Selena Zito gives us the rust belt perspective on Trump. Does Tim Walz effect the Dome ticket as much as they wanted? Western countries are going after free speech proponents. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Join Jim and Greg as they still struggle to locate a good martini. Instead, they highlight how Kamala Harris is trying to gaslight Americans about why everything costs so much, the details surrounding Tim Walz's drunk driving arrest back in the '90s, and a Secret Service agent found missing from her post just moments before Trump's arrival at a rally in North Carolina.First, they note Vice President Harris, just like President Biden, is planning to blame high prices on greedy, gouging companies instead of their reckless spending and other inflationary policies. They give Harris a quick review of why costs skyrocketed in the first couple years of the Biden-Harris administration and why demonizing corporate America is not going to help at all.Next, they dig into the details of Tim Walz's 1995 drunk driving arrest for going 96 MPH in a 55 MPH zone. In addition to documenting that Walz lied about it as recently as his 2006 congressional campaign. Jim also points to the final days of the 2000 presidential election to prove that drunk driving arrests can cause serious problems many years later.Finally, they groan as a Secret Service agent was discovered to be away from her post without permission just minutes before Donald Trump arrived for a rally because she was breastfeeding her baby. While they love kids, Jim and Greg don't think bringing kids to your protective detail is a very good idea. And they are stunned that anyone in the Secret Service would be cutting any corners right now.Please visit our great sponsors:Oraclehttps://oracle.com/martiniTake a free test drive of OCI at oracle.com/martini today!Moink Boxhttps://moinkbox.com/martiniSign up today and get free hot rolls in your first box only at moinkbox.com/martini .
