My name is Cadillac Jack. I joined Atlanta Radio when I was 19 years old, put in a loyal 26 years.

Welcome to my second act, 26 years at the same radio station combined. Don and I have 40 plus years at that radio station, the former kicks. Welcome to My Second Act podcast where we talk about things you talk about with family and friends, conversations about current events, pop culture, headlines in the news, music, trends, and often revealing and endearing conversations about marriage, parenting, and personal growth. We're in the 420s as far as episode numbers.

Welcome, Donna, to Cadillac Check My Second Act.

My name is Donna.

I'm Caddy's wife.

Okay, so Wendy's has decided that they are going to do surge pricing.

Like an Uber, like a lift, like concert tickets.

I just don't understand this.

I don't understand the whole story.

We talked about on the radio this morning, and it's like they are going to charge more

when the demand is higher.

Now, I don't know if that's demand on the drive-thru, demand on workers. Demand on a specific menu item? I don't know. I don't know if it's the chicken nuggets, the baked potatoes. I don't know. The chili. I don't know. But I don't like it. There has to be some sort of formula for all the different franchises to use. Otherwise, if it's up to a manager, well,

they're going to throw a dart in the break room. And if it hits, you know, chili cheese, fries, that's what goes up. And how much does it go up? How long? There's just a lot of room for air here, I think. And the fact that, you know, you made a very good point on radio this morning. You said, you know, Starbucks has been doing this for a long, long time. You just didn't

know it. And I said, but wouldn't they have to disclose that? I just don't know that you can

raise a price on an item. You can. Without. Okay. Well, I mean, you can, you can disclose it. But would you know if it was 25 cents more or 10 cents less? I probably wouldn't. Unless I went to Starbucks

every single morning, same location, same time, same order, exact same order every single morning,

five days a week. I would know, yes, if suddenly it went from $5.80 for a bagel and a coffee

to $9, yes, I would know that price change. Of course.

Yeah, I mean, I think we need someone who's like an authority on how they're going to do this.

But it also has to do it. They said they have electronic menu boards, which that does make sense because then it can change like like, on an instant.

And it's been disclosed on the menu board, they could say.

Yeah, or from AI. So I'm not saying that the workers actually know, but you might come and it was too,
