  • 🪽 “The Spacester” — Tesla’s flying car. Reese Witherspoon’s boomerang. AI’s hot standup comics. +KFC breakup
    Oct 19 2026

    Tesla’s flying car might never get sold… but it was marketing the stock, not the car.

    Reese Witherspoon bought back Hello Sunshine for 96% off… cause media has human souls.

    AI is stealing comedians’ jokes… but as sexier versions of those comedians.

    Plus, KFC just broke up with Pepsi after 29 years… but they used to be the same company.

  • 🥗 “Sultans of Salad” — Sweetgreen Co-Founders Jonathan Neman & Nicolas Jammet
    Oct 16 2026
    LIVE from sold-out Boston… we sat down with 2 of the 3 co-founders of Sweetgreen.In this sitdown, Jon & Nic explain how 2 years after college, they booked The Strokes for a salad music festival, eventually landing Kendrick Lamar (for salads!).Sure, Sweetgreen stock is down 80% from its post-IPO all-time highs, but they’ve bet a comeback on a $12 custom-wrap tortilla that took a full year to build. And they’ve figured out how to keep employees longer by hiring robots (the “Infinite Kitchen”).Jon & Nick reveal the ROI on the wraps, why the $20 salad rep is undeserved, and how the founders rank taste/health/sustainability as marketing tactics. Want to know the 1 trait they look for in a job interview? The CEO and CCO of Sweetgreen told usPlus, if you think “Slop Bowls” is an offensive term (which we do), we actually rebranded it in real-time on-stage with both of them #BonusBowls #FreshCasual.But most of all, we just had fun catching up with 2 of the Caesars of Salads who turned kale from a Pizza Hut decoration into an economic force — And from the audience cheers, you know the hummus-headed Yetis did too.CHAPTERS0:00 - Intro (Live from Boston): Sweetgreen Founders Jonathan Neman & Nicolas Jammet 2:04 - How Sweetgreen’s Founders Met at Georgetown and Why They Opened a Salad Shop 4:42 - Sweetgreen Opened on the Wrong Side of the Street, Then Booked The Strokes for 20,000 Fans 8:52 - Sweetgreen’s Best-Selling Menu Item: How the Company Ranks Its Bowls 10:14 - Sweetgreen Wraps: Gen Z Growth, $11 Price and the Custom Tortilla 15:09 - Sweetgreen Infinite Kitchen: How Its Salad-Making Machine Changed Employee Turnover 19:31 - Sweetgreen Stock Down 80% From All-Time High: CEO Responds 21:51 - Is Sweetgreen Too Expensive?
