In this week’s Fast Five podcast, sponsored by Microsoft, the A&M Consumer and Retail Group, Takeoff, and Sezzle, Chris Walton and Anne Mezzenga hotly debate even more topics than normal, including:
– Who had the cooler board appointee this week? Meta with DoorDash’s CEO? Or Shopify with Instacart’s?
– Whether the Yeezy Gap and Balenciaga partnership will amount to a hill of beans.
– If there is anything at all to read from a supposedly leaked Shopify patent on in-store traffic monitoring.
– Why TikTok broadening its consumer reach by way of its new Atmosphere partnership is so important within the context of video commerce.
– And, close with a pointed discussion about why autonomous delivery robots at the Cincinnati airport may be the wrong next step to solve a real consumer pain point.
There’s all that, plus my likely lone Arizona Cardinals playoff plug of the season, our salute to Bob Saget, and why I would like to get “sequentially stable” with Tom Brady.
