In this week’s Omni Talk Retail Fast Five, sponsored by the A&M Consumer and Retail Group, Mirakl, Ocampo Capital, Infios, Quorso and Veloq, Chris and returning guest Carter Jensen — now of The Uncommon Business and one of the original co-creators of this very podcast — discussed:
- Amazon expanding its Shop Direct feature to accept third-party product feeds (Source)
- Ulta Beauty launching on TikTok Shop (Source)
- Walmart and Vizio unveiling new content-to-commerce integrations at the 2026 IAB Newfronts (Source)
- Instacart integrating Nvidia AI technology into its Caper Carts (Source)
- Amazon and Winn-Dixie expanding their grocery delivery partnership to the greater Tampa Bay area, plus Amazon rolling out one-hour delivery to hundreds of U.S. cities (Source1 and Source2)
There’s all that, plus Carter’s long-overdue confession about the microphones he “definitely knew how to use,” shopping carts in the creek, and whether Raymond the dog is holding a grudge after National Puppy Day got overlooked.
