Podcasts about Taco Bell

I recently spent $22 at Taco Bell. Taco Bell used to be cheaper, but nowadays it's getting more expensive. The Taco Bell prices talk about a bigger problem at hand, price hiking. CONQUER SHYNESS

Send us a textHi. How have you been? Me too. Same old, same old. I finally sat down to ramble about many things. This is my gift to you, a middle age dude complaining about bad customer service and "kids these days." I have a few show recommendations and some decent diet advise that I won't take. Somehow I end up professing my love for Taco Bell during my diet conversation. Anyway, I have to pack my bags and wait by the door for vacation to begin. It's 2 days away. Find the next great song for your playlists.Music news, reviews and interviews to bring you closer to your favourite artists.Listen on: Apple Podcasts Spotify

Happy Friday, everyone! I'm back with another round of updates. This week I've got four stories that capture the messy, fascinating reality of AI right now. From fast food drive-thrus to research to consulting giants, the headlines tell one story, while what's underneath is where leaders need to focus.Here's a quick rundown. Taco Bell's AI experiment went viral for all the wrong reasons, but there's more behind it than memes. Then, I look at new adoption data from the US Census Bureau that some are using to argue AI is already slowing down. I'll also break down KPMG's much-mocked 100-page prompt, sharing why I think it's actually a model of how to do this well. Finally, I close with a case study on AI coaching almost going sideways and how shifting the approach created a win instead of a talent drain.With that, let's get into it.⸻Taco Bell's AI Drive-Thru DilemmaHeadlines are eating up the viral “18,000 cups of water” order. However, nobody seems to catch that Taco Bell has already processed over 2 million successful AI-assisted orders. This makes the story more complicated. The conclusion shouldn't be scrapping AI. It's about designing smarter safeguards, balancing human oversight, and avoiding the trap of binary “AI or no AI” thinking.⸻Is AI Adoption Really Declining?New data from Apollo suggests AI adoption is trending downward in larger companies, sparking predictions of a coming slowdown. Unfortunately, the numbers don't tell the whole story. Smaller companies are still on the rise. Add to that, even the “decline” in big companies may not be what it seems. Many are using AI so much it's becoming invisible. I explain why this is more about maturity than decline and explain what opportunities smaller players now have.⸻KPMG's 100-Page Prompt: A Joke or a Blueprint?Some mocked KPMG for creating a “hundred-page prompt,” but what they actually did was map complex workflows into AI-readable processes. This isn't busywork; it's the future of enterprise AI. By going slow to go fast, KPMG is showing what serious implementation looks like, freeing humans to focus on the “chewy problems” that matter most.⸻Case Study: Rethinking AI CoachingA client nearly rolled out AI coaching without realizing it could accelerate attrition by empowering talent to leave. Thankfully, by analyzing engagement data with AI first, we identified cultural risks and reshaped the rollout to support, not undermine, the workforce. The result: stronger coaching outcomes and a healthier organization.⸻If this episode was helpful, would you share it with someone?

"Wait… did your water break at Potbelly or was it the murder call that came first?"That's just one of the wild questions that kicks off this unforgettable segment of The Ben and Skin Show, featuring hosts Ben Rogers, Jeff “Skin” Wade, Kevin “KT” Turner, and Krystina Ray. What starts as a quirky food news update quickly spirals into a hilarious, heartfelt, and jaw-dropping conversation that blends nostalgia, absurdity, and real-life emotion.

"What do a machete-wielding motel employee, a hot dog sushi roll, and a heartfelt 9/11 memory have in common?" They all somehow fit into this unforgettable, emotionally charged, and hilariously chaotic episode of The Ben and Skin Show. Ben Rogers, Jeff “Skin” Wade, Kevin “KT” Turner, and Krystina Ray navigate everything from the death of Charlie Kirk, a decapitation in Dallas, and Cowboys injury news. Also...Personal stories from 9/11, ranging from Ben's CBS sales meeting to Christina's sixth-grade classroom, and KT's junior high football practice where a classmate screamed “World War III!”A local Dallas beheading story. A deep dive into Cowboys cornerback drama and the mystery of Jadeveon Clowney's visit.Food news that includes Potbelly's $566M acquisition, Taco Bell's Y2K menu, and the culinary monstrosity known as the hot dog sushi roll.A tribute to Polly Holliday (Flo from Alice), who passed away just days after the crew randomly discussed her on-air.A preview of Paul Thomas Anderson's new film starring DiCaprio, Sean Penn, and Benicio Del Toro — described by Spielberg as “Kubrick-level absurdist brilliance.”Funniest Quotes:“My buzzer needs an oil change.”“I burned my tongue on a Texas Twinkie.”“You're getting your sack tenderized?”“I put it in the wrong hole. That's my fault.”

Whether or not it's Tuesday, tacos pretty much always hit the spot—and not just in their homeland in Mexico. These days, the taco can be found all over the world, although it's acquired some strange new fillings along the way, from French fries to canned corn. It's hard to imagine something so universal having to be invented—but, in fact, the taco as we know it only emerged in the 1800s. In this episode, Gastropod talks taco with the experts, peering through the salsa-smudged veil of history to answer such questions as: What do Cornish miners and their lunchtime pasties have to do with the taco? Did Glen Bell, of Taco Bell fame, actually invent the hard-shell version? Is a burrito also a taco? And how can a seemingly simple snack harbor so many mysteries? Grab a napkin, because things are going to get messy—and delicious—as we dive deep into the taco-verse to find out! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Welcome Back Shedheads,This week the guys want to know why Black Currant is such a slept on flavor in the US. You see, black currant is used in food in the UK and Canada regularly, but it's rare to find something here in the states that uses this delicious fruit.Speaking of delicious fruit, James tried Baja Blast Midnight, the new exclusive flavor from Mountain Dew at Taco Bell. This is a Passion Fruit Baja Blast and it seems that James was not let down.There's always new tech hitting the scene and we look into a new dry herb vaporizer that comes from the makers of some high end gear.

That's right, The Mighty Morphing Power Rangers are in Fortnight and it has the boys playing. For those who are familiar with our history here at the shedtime podcast, It's a well known fact that James is a Power Ranger Fan. You know this means that we had to play some Fortnight to have that sweet, sweet, power ranger content.We close this one out talking about the wonderful world of Legos. Adults like Legos too, and some of the things that they make are AMAZING.

On this week's Extra Serving, NRN editor in chief Sam Oches and executive editor Alicia Kelso discuss the latest restaurant industry news, including Taco Bell's plans for voice AI in the drive thru, Starbucks' best week ever, McDonald's issue with tipped wages, and M&A activity heating up. First up is Taco Bell, which found itself in headlines when a viral video showed its voice AI glitching when a customer tried to order thousands of cups of water. While it was a prank, it called out the unreliability of some AI today, and Sam and Alicia discuss what it could mean for customer-facing AI at restaurants. Next they talk about Starbucks, which had some AI news of its own: It rolled out an inventory management tool that will benefit its operators. The coffee giant also announced that it had enjoyed its best sales week ever after the annual Pumpkin Spice Latte launch. Sam and Alicia break down these headlines and what they mean for Starbucks. Then they tackle the news that McDonald's was parting ways with the National Restaurant Association over a dispute about the sub-minimum wage; the Golden Arches has drawn a line in the sand and claims the sub-minimum wage is making labor competition unfair between quick and full serve restaurants. Could this be the first domino to fall in a bigger industry-wide tipping conversation? Managing editor Leigh Anne Zinsmeister then joins for the extra serving portion of the episode to talk about recent merger and acquisition news, including Freddy's acquisition and the rumors of other chains that could be up for sale. Finally, we share a conversation between senior food and beverage editor Bret Thorn and Original ChopShop's Kyle Frederick.

Dolly Parton BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Dolly Parton can't seem to slow down even for a moment. The biggest story making headlines is her powerful new duet, Butterfly, with Zac Brown and the Zac Brown Band, released September 5. Critics from MusicTalkers and Parade alike call the ballad a spiritual, cinematic anthem of resilience and hope. The release arrived not only with a beautifully produced track but also a deeply moving music video featuring both artists. According to Zac Brown, the collaboration was a dream come true, and he describes Dolly's vocals as transformative, saying she brought a whole new perspective and “so much heart and soul” to the song. Fans are already flooding social media with praise for the pairing and have made the video a must-watch on YouTube and Instagram in the first forty-eight hours.Butterfly is included in the Zac Brown Band's upcoming album, Love & Fear, due out December 5—the very day they launch their sold-out Las Vegas Sphere residency. Industry watchers are buzzing about a possible live duet during December's Sphere run, although no official announcement has been made. While this is not yet confirmed, the excitement is only amplified by Zac and Dolly's visible camaraderie on social media, with Zac's fiancée Kendra Scott even joining the chorus of enthusiastic fans.If that weren't enough, tomorrow night Dolly's legacy gets honored as the Cleveland Orchestra brings Threads: My Songs in Symphony to the Blossom Music Center. The production, developed by Parton herself with Schirmer Theatrical and Sony Music Publishing, recasts Dolly's signature hits in a grand multimedia symphonic format. Parton will not appear on stage, but she's ‘featured on screen' throughout the evening in what she herself has called one of the most special projects of her career. This innovative celebration threads her life story and musical journey together for audiences nationwide—another sign her iconic catalog is only growing in stature.On the business front, Dolly continues to bat away internet scams using her likeness, specifically those false rumors about her endorsing CBD gummies that have popped up in unsanctioned Facebook ads. In a typically witty Instagram statement this week, Team Dolly clarified she has not endorsed any such product, declaring she's truly “the cake, cookie, and cornbread type.” Instead, she recently expanded her official food line with new Duncan Hines offerings, delighting fans with fresh cornbread and brownie mixes.And just to remind everyone she's always relatable, Dolly told Business Insider in a new interview that her go-to order at Taco Bell remains the classic soft taco—with extra hot sauce, of course.From music milestones to myth-busting on social media, September finds Dolly Parton as both an always-evolving icon and the down-to-earth queen her fans adore.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOta

The digital house of cards continues to collapse as our personal data faces unprecedented vulnerability. This week, we reveal how the Department of Government Efficiency's reckless handling of over 300 million Americans' Social Security numbers could lead to a massive security crisis. After repeatedly warning about these dangers, our predictions are unfortunately coming true - just as we've seen with Taco Bell's embarrassing AI drive-thru experiment.Remember when Microsoft promised Windows 10 would be "the last operating system you'd ever need"? That promise expires October 14th, 2025, when support officially ends. But don't panic - we break down exactly how to secure free extended security updates through 2026 using Microsoft Rewards points. With nearly half of all PC users worldwide still running Windows 10, Microsoft has been forced to create options for those who can't or won't upgrade to Windows 11.The technology failures continue mounting as TransUnion joins Equifax and Experian in the data breach hall of shame. Despite claims of "limited exposure," dark web samples reveal the credit bureau leaked names, addresses, phone numbers, and unredacted Social Security numbers for 4.4 million Americans. When all three major credit reporting agencies have been compromised, who can we trust with our most sensitive information?Our Two Truths and a Lie segment challenges listeners to separate fact from fiction in today's outlandish tech landscape, while Mike's Mesmerizing Moment examines why the constant pursuit of new technology doesn't actually make us happier. We also take a nostalgic journey back to 1977 when Pioneer 11 made history as the first human-made object to fly past Saturn.Grab your favorite whiskey and join us as we navigate this technological minefield together. Whether you're concerned about your digital privacy, struggling with Windows upgrade decisions, or just want to hear which bourbon earned our unanimous approval this week, Tech Time Radio delivers the insights you need with the humor that makes complex tech digestible.Support the show

Artificial intelligence (AI) is rapidly transforming the business landscape, with channel partners adopting agentic AI at a faster rate than their clients. A recent survey indicates that while only 8.3% of partners and 4.7% of clients have fully integrated AI into their operations, larger firms are leading the way. Security and compliance concerns, along with budget constraints, are significant barriers for smaller firms. Additionally, a study reveals that AI is influencing human speech patterns, with many workers using AI tools without proper training, leading to a culture of secrecy around AI usage in the workplace.Taco Bell is reassessing its reliance on AI in drive-thru locations after mixed results, including instances of customers attempting to bypass the system. The company is considering the effectiveness of human operators during peak hours. Meanwhile, research from Stanford University highlights a concerning trend: entry-level jobs are disappearing, particularly for younger workers in roles easily automated by AI. This decline in employment for those aged 22 to 25 raises questions about the future of job opportunities in an increasingly automated world.In the tech industry, Apple has launched an AI chatbot named AZA-ASA for its retail employees, focusing on enhancing internal support rather than customer-facing applications. Google has introduced a new image model for its Gemini chatbot, aiming to improve user experience and compete with OpenAI's tools. Microsoft has also made strides by developing its own voice models, moving away from collaboration with OpenAI. These developments reflect a broader trend of companies prioritizing internal applications and refining their AI offerings to better serve their needs.A recent ruling has deemed Google a monopoly but has not mandated significant changes, allowing the company to maintain its key assets like Chrome and Android. Critics argue that the remedies are insufficient to alter Google's monopolistic behavior. As the tech landscape evolves, businesses must navigate the complexities of AI integration and the implications of regulatory decisions. The ongoing developments in AI and its impact on employment and business operations underscore the need for strategic planning and adaptation in a rapidly changing environment. Three things to know today 00:00 Channel Partners Race Ahead in AI Adoption as Clients Lag, Employees Hide Usage, and Governance Trails06:18 AI Promises Efficiency but Delivers Messy Customer Experiences and Fewer Early-Career Roles09:44 Apple Bets on Employees, Google on Trustworthy Images, Microsoft on Voice Autonomy13:54 Judge Declares Google a Monopoly but Stops Short of Breakup, Leaving Core Business Model Intact This is the Business of Tech.    Supported by:  https://timezest.com/mspradio/ https://getflexpoint.com/msp-radio/ All our Sponsors: https://businessof.tech/sponsors/ Do you want the show on your podcast app or the written versions of the stories?

In this jam-packed, laugh-out-loud episode of The Ben and Skin Show, hosts Ben Rogers, Jeff “Skin” Wade, Kevin “KT” Turner, and Krystina Ray deliver a full day of unpredictable hilarity, pop culture deep dives, and sports hot takes that will leave you entertained from start to finish.From a glue-related tragedy that sparks one of Ben's most infamous pun runs (“Sounds like a sticky situation”... “Elmer.”) to a philosophical debate about the first three movies you'd show someone who's never seen one, this episode is a rollercoaster of absurdity and insight.

"Can ordering 18,000 water cups at Taco Bell save humanity from AI?"In this laugh-out-loud, thought-provoking episode of The Ben and Skin Show, hosts Ben Rogers, Jeff “Skin” Wade, Kevin “KT” Turner, and Krystina Ray tackle the bizarre intersection of fast food, artificial intelligence, and southern restaurant drama.First up: AI at the Taco Bell drive-thru, where a customer hilariously broke the system by ordering 18,000 water cups. The gang dives into the implications of AI in everyday life, from glitchy McDonald's bots to the existential question: Do delivery robots deserve empathy? Skin's sci-fi musings and Krystina's emotional reaction to a robot getting hit by a car spark a surprisingly deep conversation about the soul of machines.Then, the show shifts gears to a spicy southern scandal: Cracker Barrel's rebrand backlash. A 93-year-old former CEO goes off on the new logo, calling it “pitiful” and accusing the new leadership—who came from Taco Bell—of throwing $700 million “out in the street.” The team breaks down the culture clash, the logo drama, and the hilarious comparison of the new CEO to Garth from Wayne's World.

It's an all new That Real Blind Tech show as Allison, Brian, David, and Jeanine are back together to talk about little tech along with a tad of A.I. Because why wouldn't they?   We kick the show off discussing the recent story of a florida man being captured on his Ring Doorbell being attacked by a bear. Yes, a bear in freaking Florida, man.   We then get our first A.I. story of the show as Taco Bell has said No Mas to A.I. Drive Through Windows.   TSA has banned some new items from being carried on to a plane, but what is more impressive is some of the items you can take on a plane with you.   We then discuss the Ally Solos Glasses which were recently announced.   We then discuss the fascinating story about where do Waymos go when they are not driving passengers? They have to go somewhere.   Next we discuss the news about Glide not coming to Europe any time soon.   Are A.I. Agents still closer to science fiction than reality? Which leads us in to complaining about stupid articles behind the paywall and then how to get around it.   Blind people get ready to rejoice as Meta is moving ahead with Facial Recognition on their next pairs of Meta Glasses. And on a related note, Meta has released six new pairs of the Meta Oakleys, well actually only six new colors for the lenses and frames.   We then discuss the fun article How to Win friends and Influence ChatBots.   And on a terrifying note, A.I. ransomWare has arrived.   We then discuss the recent announcement between the beta partnership between Be My Eyes and Amtrak. Amtrak has also finally rolled out their new Acela trains, but don't expect them to get you to your location any faster!   Apple TV Plus has hiked its price to $13 a month. Is it time to start dialing back all those streaming services?   We then talk about the all new redesign that came to the new ESPN app, but same old same old Worldwide Leader in Inaccessibility at ESPN.   And it's more of What's Pissing Off Brian Now and Watcha Streaming, Watcha Reading.   To contact That Real Blind Tech Show, you can email us at ThatRealBlindTechShow@gmail.com, join our Facebook Group That Real Blind Tech Show, join us on the Twitter @BlindTechShow

(01:00) What does this say about QSR value wars, portion sizes, and how brands like CAVA and Starbucks are reframing value through experience, not just price?Next, we examine Chipotle's partnership with Zipline (05:00), which involves testing drone delivery in Dallas. Is this more than PR? Carl breaks down the operational hurdles, costs, and what it means for scale.From there, we dive into talent and tech shifts: Duolingo's social media star Zaria Parvez joins DoorDash (10:00), bringing 16M followers' worth of creativity, and voice AI startups raise fresh funding (14:00)— even as Taco Bell and McDonald's wrestle with reliability.Finally, we conclude with culture and agility: how restaurants capitalized on Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift's engagement (21:00) to deliver playful, real-time marketing moments.Support the show

Going out to eat used to be a battlefield. I'd spend days restricting, obsessing over the menu, showing up starving, pretending to have “just a few bites,” then swinging through Taco Bell on the way home to binge in secret.This week I'm telling the story of how the same exact scenario looks now: ordering what I want, sharing dessert, taking leftovers home, even eating them later that night — without guilt, without secrecy, without the spiral.This episode isn't really about a dinner, though. It's about proof. Proof that freedom is possible. That you can move from panic and control to ease and presence. And that the changes you've worked so hard for often show up in the smallest, most ordinary moments — like bread pudding and decaf coffee on a random Saturday night.

What does it take to build a buzzy food brand in 2025—a brand gushed about online, used by legit chefs around the country, and found on the shelves of Erewhon? It's a tough question, but Zab's Datil Pepper Hot Sauce cofounder Miles Soboroff is pretty qualified to answer it. In this great conversation, Miles shares how he discovered the datil pepper by near accident and how he think about growing his amazing company. Matt is a major fan of Zab's as well as of Miles, and we hope you enjoy the conversation. Also on the show Matt has a great conversation with Tyler Sharp, editor in chief of Modern Huntsman. The award-winning publication has released a really terrific cookbook and they talk all about it, as well as what it means to hunt and fish today.

Dish is giving up on being a major mobile carrier, Intel is now partially owned by the US government, and Elon has filed a questionable lawsuit against Apple.
