Full Episode
This is Nick. This is Jack. It's Wednesday, so we check Wednesday, May 21st.
And today's pod is the best one yet.
This is a T-boy. The top three pop business news stories you need to know today. Well, look at that. The six-day stock market win streak is over. The double hat trick is done. Stocks are dipping, but this pod is ripping. Couldn't have said it better. Jack, three stories for today's show. What do we got on the T-Boy?
For our first story, Dockers was once worth $1 billion, but Levi's just sold their khakis brand for 70% less than that. But in its heyday, Dockers khakis was so innovative, they actually invented Casual Friday. That's a great story. For our second story, the list of the 100 most respected brands in America was just released.
So Jack and I will tell you the one critical currency that the best brands are rich in. And our third and final story is Klarna. The leader of the buy now, pay later movement just invented a new metric, revenue per human. Revenue per human. So we've got an update for everyone listening under 25. But yetis, before we hit that wonderful mix of stories.
What?
I told you this pot was ripping.
You did say that.
There's a new industry of caretakers that is emerging. But not to take care of your kids, take care of the elderly, or take care of your pets. It's a new thing called plant nannies.
