✊ “Make Insta Insta Again” — Kardashian’s Facebook protest. Glossier’s Sephora-man. Russia’s economic lie.

We’re witnessing the most existential zucking of our time: Instagram is copying TikTok (and the Kardashians are really unhappy about it). For years, the only way to get Glossier’s lip gloss was at Glossier, until now — Glossier is coming to Sephora’s 2K stores. And Russia’s economy seems to be doing okay since the war started… except Russia’s economy is 1 big lie. $META $LVMUY Follow The Best One Yet on Instagram, Twitter, and Tiktok: @tboypod\ And now watch us on Youtube Want a Shoutout on the ...

🎀 “The secret sauce to Pink Sauce” — Pink Sauce’s growth hack. Marvel’s superhero ROI. Weber’s broken grill.

Pink Sauce has gone viral, but its growth hack was not explaining what it is. At Comic-Con, Disney revealed 2 more phases of its Marvel Cinematic Universe — we think it’s one of the greatest acquisitions of all time. And summer is peak-season for lighting up Weber Grills, yet Weber stock just plummeted 16%. $DIS $WEBR $KHC $SPY Follow The Best One Yet on Instagram, Twitter, and Tiktok: @tboypod And now watch us on Youtube Want a Shoutout on the pod?

🫁 “Bezos harvested my kidney” — Amazon’s One Medical catchup. FaZe Clan’s video gamer stock. AT&T’s phone-bill fiasco.

FaZe Clan is a video game team that now has a publicly traded stock. Amazon just jumped into your doctor’s office by acquiring One Medical (“paging Dr. Bezos”). And AT&T stock had its worst day in 20 years because you paid your phone bill a day late… and so did everyone else. $FAZE $ONEM $AMZN $T Follow The Best One Yet on Instagram, Twitter, and Tiktok: @tboypod And now watch us on Youtube Want a Shoutout on the pod?

🥿 “I love your mules, dude” — Mule’s comfort economy. Amazon’s fake weeding. Fusion Nuclear’s hail mary pass.

Amazon is suing the people behind 10,000 Facebook Groups for their fake review schemes because we all pay the Bot Tax. Mules shoes have jumped from women’s fashion to men’s, because under every active fad is a sleeping trend. And yesterday, air conditioner stocks popped because they’re the duct tape of Climate Change. Today, we’ve found the Hail Mary of Climate Change… It’s known as Fusion. $FL $AMZN $CROX Follow The Best One Yet on Instagram, Twitter, and Tiktok: @tboypod And now watch us on Yo...

🐔 “Nuggets 4 life” — KFC’s Window of Loyalty. Air Conditioner’s duct tape. Netflix’s stoooooop.

KFC is launching their first chicken nugget in their 92 year history — because the window for their chicken loyalty is closing fast. With extreme heat ravaging Europe, people are turning to climate change duct tape: Air Conditioners. And Netflix’s shrinkage continued for a second-straight quarter, so it should initiate Code Red: Make Fewer Shows. $YUM $NFLX $CARR Follow The Best One Yet on Instagram, Twitter, and Tiktok: @tboypod And now watch us on Youtube Want a Shoutout on the pod?

🐟 “The Barbra Streisand of Tuna” — Subway’s funa sandwich. Snapchat’s zoom-eater. Delta’s lost bag flight.

A judge just ruled that Subway can be sued over its tuna sandwich… So it’s time to discuss “The Barbra Streisand Effect.” After 10 years, Snapchat just launched on a web version — and it’s a Zoom-eater. And airline’s just reported earnings, which can be summed up with one single flight: Delta flew a plane from London to Detroit only filled with lost bags. $SNAP $DAL $UAL $AAL Follow The Best One Yet on Instagram, Twitter, and Tiktok: @tboypod And now watch us on Youtube Want a Shoutout on the po...

🐝 “BeyTok” — Beyonce’s TikTok. Wordle’s board game. Big Tech’s fear managers.

Beyonce has finally joined TikTok, but the real story here is how TikTok’s beating Google. The NYTimes and Hasbro are turning Wordle into a physical board game, because they’re playing chess while their copycats play checkers.

🦸‍♂️ “Ironman… In Real Life” — The Tony Stark startup. Coors Light Super Bowl. BMW’s heated seat fee

Budweiser was the exclusive beer sponsor of the Super Bowl until today — and that made Molson Coors the most creative beer in advertising. The founder of Oculus has a new plan: Become Iron Man (he’s pulling a Tony Stark in real life). And if you enjoy the heated seats in a BMW, you’re gonna have to pay extra for them… because BMW is jumping into Fee-tail with a Fee-ocracy. $TAP $BUD $BMWYY $META Follow The Best One Yet on Instagram, Twitter, and Tiktok: @tboypod And now watch us on Youtube Want ...

🎹 “Wordle… but for Bohemian Rhapsody” — Spotify’s trivia acquisition. Pepsi’s double-dipped chip. Dollars vs Euros.

Trivia: What startup did Spotify just acquire? Answer: A music trivia game that rhymes with Wordle (because “discovery” is audio’s biggest problem). Pepsi just revealed a shockingly strong quarter because it’s double-dipping its chips — and we’re letting them do it.

Elon Musk is canceling his deal with Twitter and here’s how we’re visualizing it: A house with termites. Truff created the most expensive hot sauce on earth, and it’s because Truff created an Instagram handle before it created a sauce.

The fastest growing segment in toys… is grownups (we’re talking middle-aged fans of Legos, scooters, and dolls).

Apple just launched a concert series with Mary J Blige and Harry Styles because in a Recession, Subscription is the Prescription. LA’s 2 top universities joined the Big 10, because college football has become a TV show. And BlockFi lost up to 99% of its value in 3 months (and Harry Styles explains this one, too), because the crypto winter is the riskiest of risky. $BTC $AAPL Follow The Best One Yet on Instagram, Twitter, and Tiktok: @tboypod And now watch us on Youtube Want a Shoutout on the pod...
