This is the Gary V. Audio Experience.

I do want to talk about the Amazon acquisition of Whole Foods.

I love it for many different reasons. July 5th, 1994.

July 5th, 1994 is the day that Amazon launched Whole Foods

was valued at 220 million dollars. Oh, you guys think I'm an amateur, huh?

Whole Foods was valued at 220 million dollars at the time.

I'm always fascinated by being historically correct,

which I talk about with myself and trying things.

Being historically correct allows the person that started way behind to win, right?

To me, it's fascinating that it's Amazon buying Whole Foods instead of Whole Foods

buying Amazon or the fact that had Whole Foods been run by people that bet on the internet

and started with food instead of books, like would it be the other way around?

Would Whole Foods be eating up the world instead of Amazon eating up the world?

There's a clip here that I'm going to show you right now that was from what,

just like two or three weeks ago, where I was talking about, yeah,

where I was talking about Amazon if it entered into the stereo world,

what would it mean? What if they bought?

I think people don't understand how big these companies are.

I wonder how many people are like, whoa, Amazon bought Whole Foods easily.

And when Facebook buys X and Apple buys Y,

I don't think people understand what's happening here.

The new world is going to eat the old world.
