Who doesn't remember the Chili's jingle—“I want my baby back, baby back, baby back…”? Or maybe you've seen the viral TikToks about Chili's Triple Dipper. Chili's is back in culture in a big way, and much of that credit goes to their Chief Marketing Officer, George Felix.George is one of today's most dynamic marketing leaders. He started his career at P&G—where, like me, he worked on the legendary Old Spice turnaround—before moving on to Yum! Brands with KFC and Pizza Hut. Three years ago, he took on Chili's, and the results have been remarkable. Under George's leadership, Chili's has gone from not even being a national advertiser to becoming Ad Age's Brand of the Year, with George himself named CMO of the Year.In this episode, George shares his playbook for turning brands around, the importance of listening to frontline team members, and how to make a heritage brand cool again. And yes—we even take a detour into Taylor Swift.This conversation was recorded in person at the Next Gen CMO Academy at Deloitte University.---This week's episode is brought to you by Deloitte.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Story of the Week (DR):End of summer anti-woke bro rage brigade MMNew Cracker Barrel Logo Sparks Right-Wing Backlash—From Trump Jr. And MoreMAGA erupts over Cracker Barrel logo change, and stock plungesRight-Winger, Others Call Out 'Woke' New Change To Cracker Barrel's Peg GameThe goal of the game is to whittle down the number of pegs on the board to one through a series of “jumping” pegs, not unlike checkers. Previously, directions on the game explained that people who have only one peg left on the board are geniuses, while people with two pegs left are “pretty smart.” However, if you leave three pegs, the game considers you “dumb,” while anyone who leaves four pegs is an “EG-NO-RA-MOOOSE.”That was the old game. New peg games have removed the playful insults and instead say, “leave three or more ― no reason to be embarrassed. Try again.”Sean Davis, the CEO of The Federalist: Cracker Barrel didn't just destroy its logo and restaurant vibe. It also changed the peg game to make dumb people feel better when they do poorly.Until October 2017, The Federalist had a "black crime" tag, which aggregated articles related to criminal activity by African AmericansChristian College's Hot Take On Cracker Barrel Has People Saying, ‘Huh?'Hillsdale College in Michigan: A post on its official account on X (formerly Twitter) likened the updated logo to a vandalized statue of President George Washington that was defaced during the 2020 protests over the police killing of George Floyd.MAGA Rep Drags Jesus Christ Into ‘Woke' Cracker Barrel MeltdownCongressman Byron Donalds slammed the restaurant chain for daring to rebrand after he had a religious experience in one of its Florida parking lots: “In college, I worked at @CrackerBarrel in Tallahassee,” the Florida Republican wrote on X, “I even gave my life to Christ in their parking lot. Their logo was iconic and their unique restaurants were a fixture of American culture. No one asked for this woke rebrand.”‘Cracker barrel goes woke': CEO under MAGA fire for changing logo first time in 48 years, removes ‘white guy'Steak 'n Shake slams Cracker Barrel CEO for eliminating 'old-timer' from logo: 'We take pride in our history'“This is what happens when you have a board that does not respect their historical customers or their brand.At Steak n Shake, we have gone back to basics. Our tallow fries are waiting for you. Oh yeah, you can also now pay with Bitcoin!”Entrepreneur Sardar Biglari owns Steak ‘n ShakeOwns 9.3% of Cracker barreltook control of Steak 'n Shake in August 2008 after three years of declining same-store sales and losses of $100,000 per day.Biglari controls the Steak 'n Shake Company, First Guard Insurance, Abraxas Petroleum, Maxim, Southern Oil of Louisiana, Southern Pioneer Insurance and the Western Sizzlin' corporation. Biglari was born in Iran in 1977However the chain ran into more problems in 2016 and onward, with revenue declining sharply.In 2021, Steak N' Shake made a strategic decision to transition away from casual dining and become a fast food restaurant. Steak 'n Shake replaced lunch counters with self-serve kiosks in 2021 to improve efficiency and reduce costs. Changing the service model allowed a significant reduction of store staffIn 2024, Biglari fought and lost a proxy contest with Cracker Barrel, trying to get himself and two buddies on the CB board.This marks the sixth time since 2011 that Biglari has initiated a proxy contest seeking seats on the Board (the fourth time for Sardar Biglari personally), and the seventh contested solicitation overall during that span.POP QUIZ:Was that the original logo?No. The Cracker Barrel chain opened first in 1969 and had a text-only logo. In 1977, the famous logo with a man and a barrel was introduced.Is Cracker Barrel's new-ish CEO (11/23) a man or a woman?Cracker Barrel CEO Julie Felss Masino and the new logo controversyMs. Masino previously served as the President, International of Taco Bell, a subsidiary of Yum! Brands, Inc. (NYSE: YUM) from January 2020 to June 2023. From January 2018 to December 2019, she served as President, North America of Taco Bell.“Cracker Barrel's new logo isn't an accident — it's CEO Julie Felss Masino's project. She scrapped a beloved American aesthetic and replaced it with sterile, soulless branding.”Benny Johnson said the logo change could cause the company to collapse in a similar way that Target and other stores that embraced DEI (diversity, equity and inclusion) did.‘Go woke, you go broke:' Ohio faith leaders urge Kroger to abandon LGBTQ+ policiesTrump calls on Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook to resignLisa DeNell Cook is an American economist who has served as a member of the Federal Reserve Board of Governors since May 23, 2022.

Well, I don't know what kind of psychosis has taken hold of the bureaucrats at Health New Zealand, but you want to see these rules that they've put out about the food and what food is allowed and what food is banned from the hospital cafeterias. It is ridiculously, ridiculously prescriptive. So what they've done is they, they, they put out, because they like wasting their time on nonsense, they've put out their new national food and drink policy. And it's divided food into three categories. You've got the green category, that's the good stuff. You've got the amber category, that's a bit naughty, but OK, and you've got the red category and that's banned. So what you are allowed to eat when you go to the hospital cafeteria is chicken. But without the skin on. So that you're basically left with the saddest, driest chicken breast known to man. Yum, enjoy yourself. Beef and pork, that is allowed, but the staff have to trim the visible fat off, and they have to drain the fatty drippings, which completely ignores the modern research that shows actually meat fat is not that bad for you, and maybe you need it. You are allowed to have a quiche, but it must have no crust. You are allowed a vegetable slice or an egg cup, but they must contain vegetables. A pie is OK, but only if it's smaller than 210 g, and only if it has a potato top. What I've just described to you is basically the green category. That is the only food that they're allowed to display to us. Everything else must not be within your eyesight, cause God only knows what's gonna happen if you clap your eyes on a muffin. The green category must make up 55% of the food at the hospital cafeteria. Amber foods, things you're allowed to eat but not allowed to see, include things like muffins and loaves and slices. They must all be under 120 g, savory pies must be under 210 g, not on display. Nacho chips, white bread, Doughboys, wraps, and pizza bases. They are allowed to have icing on the sweeter things, but they're only allowed to have very little bit of icing, not a lot. Red food, this is food that is recommended to be banned, includes marshmallows in your hot chocolate. Thick icing, chocolate covered food, food containing confectionery, like rocky roads, lolly slices, pebbles, wontons. Oh, that's not actually got lollies in it, but it also includes wontons, money bags, spring rolls, commercially flavored rice, pasta, noodles, and deep fried items. Now, I don't know what, what this tells you about Health New Zealand, but I'm gonna guess that they've either lost the plot or whoever made these rules has decided to run the cafeteria in the spirit of a communist dictatorship, where adults must have every aspect of their lives controlled for them. The fact that we are adults and can decide for ourselves what we should or should not eat is clearly not been factored into this equation. Some of us actually enjoy to have the fat on the meat, very much. Some of us like to eat the skin on our chicken. Hospitals, do I need to remind you are grim. Going to the cafeteria to buy a treat for yourself or perhaps your dying loved 1 may be the only thing that that person has in the day that brings them a little bit of joy. Now, the thing is, Health New Zealand can go ahead with this if they want to. It's their cafeteria after all. Problem with their little dictatorship plan is they only control their tiny little communist state. They do not control. The gigantic capitalist market outside of it. So I don't know about you, but as a an adult who can decide for myself, I suspect I will be bringing in my brioche, dripping in gigantic slabs of icing and just eating it on their premises.

It's Buff Faye's birthday, and she's spilling the Royal Tea! In this heartfelt episode, Buff reflects on life's biggest lessons—owning your truth, embracing change, practicing self-love, and investing in people who love you back. From emotional tucks to the healing power of drag, Buff reminds us that joy, growth, and authenticity are the real gifts worth unwrapping. (Oh, and she also drops hints about what to buy her). Buff is joined by this year's reigning Miss Charlotte Pride, the dancing queen Erica Chanel, as they sip the royal tea together. Erica shares how she first got started in drag (surprise: it wasn't with Beyoncé), how Buff discover her by hiring her as a hostess at a drag restaurant, and what it means to carry the crown during the 25th anniversary of Miss Charlotte Pride. The two talk about drag family, their shared history, what to expect at this year's Charlotte Pride celebration this upcoming week—including a new festival location at Fourth Ward Park—and, of course, they close out with a juicy round of “Yuck or Yum.”  It's heartfelt, hilarious, and packed with Pride. Let's Dish, y'all.

Brands (YUM), the parent company of Taco Bell, Pizza Hut & others. “Taco Bell is the one that's leading,” Landon notes, but his data notes some weakness in customer visits, giving him pause. “The bar's going to be a bit high,” as far as analyst expectations, he thinks. Landon argues investors should focus on Yum!'s international expansion rather than the Taco Bell franchise as KFC sees success in China.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – https://twitter.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/schwab-network/About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

There's no other way to say it – this cake is magical! The way the simple batter settles into layers of custard and sponge seems impossible and yet it works, and the tamarillos are all tart and jammy and YUM. Ingredients 3 large eggs, room temp 2/3 cup sugar 90g butter, melted 1 ½ cups milk, lukewarm 1 tbsp vanilla extract Generous 1/2 cup plain flour 1 ½ cups scooped and chopped tamarillos (about XX) Icing sugar for dusting cake Whipped cream or yoghurt to serve Method Preheat oven to 190 C. Grease and line a 20x20cm cake tin with baking paper. Put a saucepan on with milk and butter and heat to lukewarm – this will melt the butter. Separate eggs into two mixing bowls. Beat the egg yolks and sugar until pale and light. Add in flour and mix until combined. Slowly add warm milk, beating until everything is well mixed together. Beat the egg whites until the stiff peak stage. Fold this into the batter gently, a third at a time until completely combined.  The batter is very thin at this stage, but don't worry. Pour batter into the baking dish and scatter over chopped tamarillo. They will sink into the cake as it bakes. Bake for approx. 50-60 minutes or until the top is browned and cake doesn't wobble. Cool and dust with icing sugar. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Likefolio's Megan Brantley walks through social sentiment trends for Domino's Pizza (DPZ). “The most compelling play” is Chipotle (CMG), she says. However, 1Q softness is “starting to resolve” for DPZ, putting it on a better track. McDonald's (MCD) is outperforming on its app metrics, with a loyal consumer, but Yum! Brands (YUM) is sliding. The divergent data in the sector reflects changing consumer taste, Megan argues.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Happy Transformation Tuesday, y'all! It's admittedly been way too long. I took a summer pause to take my son to camp and decompress for awhile with the hopes that this time would inform future creativity. I have also been busy serving clients. On that note, if you would like a complimentary 20 minute consult to discuss any health improvement goals and see if we're a fit for working together, I'm here to listen. Simply connect with me at FavorFat@gmail.com.In this episode #68, we begin with a question from listener, Mary Ellen, who asked me about supplements. This is a topic on which I've evolved due to some personal experiences from experiencing “silent migraines” and learning about some mineral deficiencies. I answer Mary Ellen's good questions with some general advice about selecting supplements and share my own journey over the last couple of years regarding magnesium deficiency and finding Dolovent. If you have a question about supplements or anything else, be in touch!Then I move on to something that should NOT be controversial but is for some, especially the media funded heavily by Big Pharma and Big Food. Know that I aim to share my health-focused perspective and do not at ALL get political here. The Nourishment Mindset is apolitical; I can't think of a much worse way to get our cortisol levels up. Each time I do yoga, meditate, pray or engage in any form of self-care I'm actively trying to lower my stress hormones, which is why I generally avoid poly-tics as it has the opposite effect.The MAHA Report was authored by HHS and posted on the White House website. It focuses on identifying the root cause factors for the shocking levels of disease in our youth and how to Make America(‘s Children) Health Again. It's not perfect and frankly, there was almost nothing there that I didn't already know, but the point is that it's out there and it made national news. Although it should've been covered MUCH more extensively.We do not have a “health”care spending issue. We do have a massive problem with corporate capture and government entanglement, non-nutritive foods comprising the majority of our diets, being surrounded by endocrine disrupters, poor lifestyles and more. I dive into my take on each of these root causes then provide my answers to the necessary question of “what should my family do?” Tune in and then let me know your thoughts in the comments or directly.FINE READ-This is a heavy one! I'm nearing the half-way point of Dr. Jordan Peterson's 12 Rules for Life: An Antidote to Chaos. This dude gets an A++ for straight talk! Pretty intense but also quite readable. I'm a large fan of personal responsibility which seems to have fallen out of favor in our culture but it doesn't mean its ineffective. It is reminding me of one of the reasons I left a job I loved with a leading metabolic healthcare company: I wanted to be much more direct with my patients. Being in private practice affords me the ability to do just this and I'm aware that I'm not a fit for some people and that's okay!FINE RECIPE- Spicy Tuna Melt CupsThis is a protein and nutrient packed household favorite developed by my husband, Patrick. YUM!1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees and grease a muffin tin.2. In large mixing bowl combine 5 oz tuna, 2 eggs, 1/4 cup sour cream, 1/4 cup mayo (watch out for seed oils!), 1/4 cup chopped onions, 1.5 cups shredded cheese, 2T minced herbs of your choosing and salt and pepper to taste. We also like to add a generous shake of Pluck seasoning!3. Fill the muffin tins with the mixture and top with a jalepeno or other pepper if you like.4.Bake at 350 degrees for 25 minutes and enjoy. They make a great snack or lunch when you add a salad topped with extra virgin olive oil and a side of fermented goodness such as kimchi or sauerkraut.FINE FIND-I'm loving this life hack taught to me by the wonderful Dr. Elizabeth Moran of Premier Gynecology in Charlotte, NC. She's not only my doctor but a lifelong friend and SO knowledgeable about women's health.I love a good sized squirt of lemon and lime juice in my morning “mocktail” of sparkling water (love my Soda Stream) with a pinch of salt. I buy organic limes and lemons but often can't get through them before they turn. When visiting Elizabeth, I noticed she had them stored in dispensers in her fridge. She juices them after purchase and therefore has no issue with spoilage in her fridge. I bought these glass dispensers on Amazon to avoid plastic contamination et voilà! (If you're wondering what's to the right of them, that's super nutrient dense fermented cod liver oil we take by the shot chez Huey.)That's a wrap, friends. Many thanks for your support, questions and more. If you haven't purchased my book, The Nourishment Mindset, please consider doin so on Amazon or my website for a signed copy. If you have ordered it from Amazon and benefited in any way, please consider leaving a quick review there.

“You're not burned out because of your job. You're burned out because you're doing someone else's job.”That line stood out to me when I sat down with Monica Rothgery, former COO of KFC and one of the most joyful, no-BS leaders I know. Monica was the first woman in the US to hold that position and the first member of the LBGTQ community to get to the C-suite at YUM!For the fiftieth episode of the Business of Joy, we talked about:✨ What the Army didn't prepare her for at Taco Bell

We often talk about strategy, technology, and profit as the engines of success. And in times of rapid change and uncertainty, it's easy to double down on those levers. But what if we're missing the most important one?In this episode of the Happiness Squad Podcast, Niren Chaudhary, former CEO of Panera Brands, joins Ashish Kothari to share a leadership philosophy rooted in something many leaders overlook: love and care for people. Because at the end of the day, companies aren't machines, they're human systems. And when we treat people like family, they show up with heart, commitment, and a desire to go above and beyond.Niren reflects on lessons from decades at Tata, Yum! Brands, and Panera, breaking down how to build cultures where values are lived, not laminated, and how leaders can turn care for people into a competitive advantage. He also opens up about how the loss of his daughter Aisha Chaudhary profoundly reshaped how he sees leadership, success, and the legacy we leave behind.What you'll also learn in this episode:• Why business is fundamentally a human-to-human experience• The leadership model that starts with love and leads to profit• How to hire for attitude and train for skill• Why success begins with the right people, doing the right things, the right way• The butterfly effect of investing in your people• Why resilience, curiosity, and generosity are non-negotiables in business and lifeThis conversation is a reminder that in business and in life, what matters most is how we show up for one another.Tune into the full episode to hear Niren's powerful stories and practical wisdom on what it really means to lead with love.Resources:• Smile A Lot by Thich Nhat Hanh: https://www.awakin.org/v2/read/view.php?tid=168 • The Sky is Pink (Aisha Chaudhary): https://youtu.be/OnBN5b48HBc?si=_FcybEn8N_yhatF9 • Black Sunshine Baby (Aisha Chaudhary): https://youtu.be/Hkf7n7m_KgY?si=THIQQMkGNUE3_-9c • The Power of Well-being at Work by Jan-Emmanuel De Neve: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K4OWg12Xl5E • CORE Meditation: https://get.hyperice.com/core Books:• My Little Epiphanies by Aisha Chaudhary: https://a.co/d/2E4vtQx • Man's Search for Meaning by Viktor Frankl: https://a.co/d/2CvRJSu • How Will You Measure Your Life by Clay Chistensen: https://a.co/d/jkZPwb5 • Hardwired for Happiness by Ashish Kothari: https://a.co/d/gML83VJ

Bible Reading: Matthew 25:14-29"Yum, your mangoes are the best, Nenek!" Eyes sparkling, Kira chewed the scrumptious mangoes her Indonesian grandmother had just peeled for her. "You mean Kakek's mangoes," Nenek said, chuckling. "Your grandfather was the one who bought and planted the seeds in our backyard. The tree grew and grew, but no mangoes. Kakek persisted and kept fertilizing it though. It was only after his death that fruit buds bloomed. Too bad he never saw the fruits of his labor." Kira's eyes dimmed as she thought of her grandfather, who died two years ago. "I miss Kakek." "Do you remember how he often took you to church?" said Nenek. "Even when his health started failing, he loved to take you and talk about what you learned afterward." Kira nodded. "I remember he took me to church two weeks before he was hospitalized. I didn't want to go then--I was tired from a basketball tournament on Saturday night, which we lost. But on Sunday morning, Kakek showed up with a huge smile and convinced me to go.""I remember you were really down that night," Nenek said. "You and your team worked so hard for that tournament.""Yeah--I thought of quitting basketball then. But then Kakek took me to church, and the sermon was on the parable of the bags of gold. Two of the servants were faithful with what God gave them and were able to make it grow. After church, Kakek said the parable was about using whatever God has given us--including our talents--to help more people know about Jesus. He told me about the time he lost a tennis match but kept on practicing and eventually won a game. He said his faith in Jesus kept him going and that he was trusting God to help him use his gifts however He wanted him to. It made me realize how much I needed Jesus. I asked Kakek to pray with me, and I became a Christian that day." Kira's face brightened. "I'm so glad I had him in my life, Nenek." She wrapped her arms around her grandmother.Nenek planted a kiss on Kira's forehead. "So in the end, Kakek did see the fruits of his labor--not the mangoes, but you putting your faith in Jesus." –Ruth SetyadiHow About You?Have you ever worked at something but failed to see results? Perhaps it was a hard subject at school or a sport. Maybe you prayed for a family member or friend to trust in Jesus, but they continue to reject Him. Don't give up. Be faithful and persistent in the things God has put on your heart to do, and trust Him with the fruits of your labor--whether you see them or not. Today's Key Verse:Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up. (NIV) (Galatians 6:9)Today's Key Thought:Be faithful and persistent

They talk about why it’s hard for women to ask for help, how babies don’t respect working hours, why it’s important for kids to see a range of emotions from their parents, and even if their sons should become good at online gambling (they shouldn’t). And of course no Mother’s Day episode would be complete without them bonding over eating their kids’ food off the floor. Yum! Keep up with Samantha Bee @realsambee on Instagram and X.

Making Instagram work smarter for your business, repurposing old content, and making the most out of DM automation tools with Lindsay Ostrom from Pinch of Yum. ----- Welcome to episode 522 of The Food Blogger Pro Podcast! This week, Bjork interviews Lindsay Ostrom from Pinch of Yum. How Pinch of Yum Uses Instagram to Grow Their Email List Welcome to the kickoff episode of our new mini-series, sponsored by Grocers List! In this conversation, Bjork and Lindsay are diving into how Pinch of Yum is rethinking its Instagram strategy, especially when it comes to using Reels, DM automation tools, and driving email list growth. They chat about how to balance creativity with conversion, and Lindsay shares why her opinion of DM automation tools has completely changed over time. Lindsay also gets into the nitty-gritty of repurposing blog content and using Grocers List as a strategic bridge to get Instagram followers into the email ecosystem. If you're looking to work smarter with your content and make Instagram actually work for your business, this episode is for you! Three episode takeaways: How to repurpose old content — Lindsay discusses how she has been breathing new life into older recipes by organizing and packaging her existing content into resources and opt-ins that can a) provide value to readers and b) drive followers to sign up for the Pinch of Yum email list. Pinch of Yums' current Instagram process and strategy — Lindsay shares her current content strategy for Instagram and how she's been rethinking the value of Instagram in her business. Historically, she viewed Instagram primarily as a means to build awareness around the brand and new recipes, but she is now being more strategic about the Instagram to email pipeline. She explains her practical tips for getting started with this mindset shift in this discussion! How to make the most out of DM for automation tools — Lindsay first tried out a DM for automation tool to drive site traffic a few years ago, but didn't like how it cluttered her Instagram inbox and made engaging with readers more difficult. So she abandoned it! Recently, however, she tried again (this time with Grocers List) and has had great success building her email list. In this interview, she explains what changed her opinion on these tools (and shares the Instagram inbox organization tip you need)!
