🍦 “$18 for a Frosty?” – Wendy’s surge pricing. The grocery store election. Apple’s canceled iCar.

Inspired by Uber, Wendy’s is adding digital billboards to all locations by 2025 so it can bring Surge Pricing to fast food — How much does a burger cost? Depends on the time of day.

Kroger and Albertsons were about to merge in the biggest deal in grocery history, but the government just sued to block it — Because this year’s election will be decided in the grocery aisle.

And after 10 years of developing a secret iCar, Apple is quitting — But we think Apple already owns your car (we’ll explain).


Intro: Gen Z is making landlines cool again. Because landline phones are liberating.
