| 0:08.4 | Out of all the pods, this is the best one yet. The top three pop business news stories you need to know today. |
| 0:15.1 | But Jack, since it's officially circle back season, why don't you to whip up the calendar for us over there? |
| 0:19.4 | I love the Yeti's no where I'm up to. Well, this is our last regular show. Yes. Tomorrow, we're publishing the full interview with the founders of the Savannah Bananas. And then on Monday, we're publishing our annual year and review, 2025 episode. Monday after that, a surprise, surprise. Because Nick and I were on TV and we're putting that interview right here for you. |
| 0:37.7 | Do you want to share the channel? Do you want to share the channel? |
| 0:39.6 | CNN. And then the first Monday in January, we've got our famous predictions pod, our three |
| 0:44.9 | business wishes for the new year. And we're also picking our two stocks at the year, or as Nick calls |
| 0:49.4 | them, our stock market resolutions. So we'll circle back on all that in 2026. But in the meantime, Jack, |
| 0:56.0 | we got three fantastic stories for today's tea boy. What do we got on the pod? For our first story. |
| 1:00.3 | And the Oscar goes to YouTube. YouTube has taken the TV rights for the Oscars. Because the biggest |

| 1:14.6 | The wildest vacation trend of the year is multi-generational travel. |
| 1:18.6 | Grandparents, parents, and kids, they're all on one big trip. |
| 1:21.9 | And our third and final story, it's an annual T-boy tradition. |
| 1:25.4 | We're breaking down the business of Santa Claus. Get get this. Clause Industries is actually an $11 trillion company. But yet he's before we hit that wonderful mix of stories. Whoa, what a mix of stories to end the year on Jack. Best mix of the year, I gotta say it. Trivia. Yes. What is the number one state where Hallmark movies are filmed? |
| 1:44.4 | Hint, it ain't Hollywood, it ain't New York, and it ain't La La Land either. There is a check. |
| 1:48.9 | It's Connecticut. It turns out Connecticut is the capital of Christmas movies. |

| 2:11.1 | to see all 22 film sets. The 300-mile Hallmark movie Trail of Connecticut. It's a bit of a stretch Connecticut Tourism Office, but we'll round up on this one. From Waterbury to Danbury, Hartford to West Hartford, New Canaan to Old Canaan. Mrs. Claus and her filming crew, Jack, they're going to need a second home down in Greenwich.
