| 0:00.0 | This is Nick. This is Jack. And this is Snacks daily. It is Thursday, the new Friday, November 11th. |
| 0:07.2 | Those stock marker eyes we mentioned yesterday. I think we're jinxed up. I mean this pod though is still like the best one yet. |
| 0:13.2 | Markets are down, but this pod is the best one yet. It's a TBOI Jack. What do we got for the first story? |
| 0:18.5 | Tiffany's jewelry is making a pivot to people who can't afford a $5,000 price. And that all begins with streetwear and engagement rings for man. |
| 0:27.4 | For our second story, DoorDash is so hungry, it just splurged on its biggest acquisition yet. Jack and I are looking at this and we think it's $8 billion of empty calories. |
| 0:37.6 | For our third and final story, prices on every thing. All the things we've bought in this economy rose the most in the past year than in the past 31 years. |

| 1:14.9 | How about that you can ask Siri to play Snacks daily and Snacks daily will start playing? |
| 1:19.3 | Hey, Alexa, can you ask Siri to play Snacks daily for us? Well, it turns out that United States military is responsible for so much of the tech in your smartphone. |

| 1:33.2 | That was created by DARPA, a military project. Jack, how about GPS? Where is the GPS coming from? |
| 1:38.9 | The Navy did that. What about cell service? That was the arm. How about the touch screen? |
| 1:42.7 | Also military. Probably the coast guard. Maybe the Air Force. |
| 1:46.0 | Okay, just to bring things full circle here, how about Siri? Where did Siri come from? |
| 1:49.3 | Actually, I'm not sure, but definitely Department of Defense. |
| 1:52.1 | Yeah, Siri, thank you for your service. Snackers, if it weren't for US military funded research projects, your smartphone would be a dumb rack. |
