Walmart not only is dominating all of our retail headlines today, but they're also requiring employees to return to the office in Bentonville this month.
Speaker AAnd to welcome them back, they just opened a brand new designed campus which features a fitness center, a store layout center, an amphitheater, a daycare for up to 500 children, among many other things.
Speaker AI want to know, Kelly, what would you want included if A and M was designing a new headquarters for you?
Speaker BGreat question.
Speaker BI would certainly take all those things that, that Walmart's setting up.
Speaker BAre their employees the two that you didn't mention, which out.
Speaker BAdam.
Speaker BSucker for a luxury fancy coffee.
Speaker BSo if there's free lattes, you know, you'll keep me in the building for, you know, an extra hour on both ends of the day and then going to go doggy daycare.
Speaker BFor those of us who are not in the the child population, doggy daycare would go a long way.
Speaker AThey might even have those things, I think just that they ran out of space in the article.
Speaker AWho knows?
Speaker AWho knows?
Speaker CYeah, they probably do, knowing them.
Speaker CYeah.
Speaker CAll right.
Speaker CAll right, John, this next one I picked out just for you, a Waymo Taxi recently got stuck in a never ending roundabout near the Phoenix airport, a la European vacation.
Speaker CAs our resident European on this show, and for those interested, my first roundabout experience was in Ireland.
Speaker CWhat recommendations do you have for us Yankees here in terms of navigating a roundabout effectively?
Speaker DFirst of all, before I ask the question, did you watch the video of the guy in the Waymo Taxi?
Speaker DIt's like, it's crazy.
Speaker DAnd he's like on the call with the customer service being like, how do I stop this car?
Speaker DIt's like running a circle, so you should look it up.
Speaker DHe also works in AI, which is kind of funny.
Speaker DSo, so just as.
Speaker COh, that's hilarious.
Speaker CReally?
Speaker COh my God.
Speaker DYeah.
Speaker DYeah.
Speaker DSo he was like, I'm never taking one of these again.
Speaker DSo my recommendation for, for roundabouts, which I mentioned to you guys already, is a little bit of a passion of mine.
Speaker DI treat it like a four way stop sign, right?
Speaker DSo when you come to the roundabout, you stop, you see where other people are coming from.
Speaker DAnd then if there's nobody coming, you go.
Speaker DIf you're turning right, you indicate right.
Speaker DIf you're going to the other side of the roundabout, you're indicating left.
Speaker DIt's a four way stop sign with a circle in the middle.
Speaker DThat's all you need to think about.
Speaker DDon't over complicate it.
Speaker ALove it.
Speaker CYet Americans can't figure it out.
Speaker AYeah, I know.
Speaker AWe're still.
Speaker AWe're still working on it.
Speaker AJohn, you get question number three as well.
Speaker AAccording to a Wallet Hub study, Florida was just named the best state in the United States to start a business in in 2025.
Speaker AIf you were to start a business in Florida this year, what kind of business would it be?
Speaker DYeah, I was kind of torn on this one, to be honest.
Speaker DI had two different ideas, so I'm going to put them both out there.
Speaker AOkay, we'll take one.
Speaker DIs like an alligator based, like boutique.
Speaker DSo they sell like alligator skin handbags and all that kind of stuff.
Speaker DRight.
Speaker DWhich is kind of like local.
Speaker DBut the other one, the more I thought about is like what's synonymous with Florida.
Speaker DAnd it's like old people, I mean, to be kind of blunt.
Speaker DSo what you really want is kind of a.
Speaker DLike a theme park for older people.
Speaker DSo kind of like Disneyland, but for older people.
Speaker DSo like gentle roller coasters.
Speaker DYou know, like a track where they can go around on their.
Speaker DAnd they're golf simulator.
Speaker DYeah, exactly.
Speaker DYou're a golf simulator.
Speaker DBut it's like, I think that's what they're missing in Florida.
Speaker DAnd I think you'd make a lot.
Speaker CI mean, I've been fishing, like amusement park rides that are like a massage chair.
Speaker CLike that's what you do.
Speaker DGentle roller, gentle for people's hearts, you know, that's what you're looking.
Speaker DYes.
Speaker COh, my God.
Speaker COh, my God.
Speaker CAnd the alligator store.
Speaker CI could definitely sink my teeth into that.
Speaker CAll right, Kelly.
Speaker CLast one.
Speaker CLiquid deaths Pit Diaper, priced at $75, is reportedly flying off shelves following a viral bathroom incident at a recent San Francisco concert at $75.
Speaker CAnd as an esteemed retail consultant, do you think the pit diaper is underpriced, overpriced, or properly priced?
Speaker BYou know, I was sad to Google pit diaper.
Speaker BThat was a wild visual to start my day.
Speaker CBut it is worth to do though.
Speaker CIt is worth the dude.
Speaker CYeah.
Speaker BIt proceed with caution.
Speaker BI would say appropriately price if it's flying off the shelf, you know, keep going with it, guys.
Speaker BYou know, a diaper, I had to look this up to see, you know, what is just a regular diaper cost nowadays.
Speaker BIt's.
Speaker BIt's probably double the cost of a adult diaper 30 pack.
Speaker BSo it's definitely expensive.
Speaker BBut you know, it's got the chains, it's got the pleather, and people will spend a lot of money for that kind of rave gear.
Speaker BThat's not my.
Speaker BMy personal shopping space.
Speaker BBut I think as long as they can ride this high, keep doing it.
Speaker CSo you think it's right price.
Speaker CNo reason to raise the price.
Speaker CGet any more margin and I could see you wearing one of these because you're a frequent concert goer.
Speaker CWhat do you think?
Speaker CCould you.
Speaker DCould.
Speaker ACould we see you wearing one of.
Speaker CThese at a future?
Speaker ANo way.
Speaker AI am too old.
Speaker AI This.
Speaker AI am too old for this.
Speaker AI'm not in the pit anymore.
Speaker AI am.
Speaker AI am.
Speaker AI am paying the extra money for the VIP tickets with their own bathroom.
Speaker AChris.
Speaker DI am.
Speaker AI'm so beyond pit diapers.
Speaker AMaybe back in my 20s, but.
Speaker BAnd the pit diaper appears to be, like, worn as pants as well, you know, it's under your clothes.
Speaker BIt is no fit.
Speaker BSo it's for the bold of heart.
Speaker BFor sure.
Speaker AI'm gonna be.
Speaker AI'm gonna be going away from the people wearing pit diapers.
Speaker ALet me just tell you that it's not gonna smell great.
Speaker AI have a feeling you're too old for the pit.
