| 0:00.0 | This is Nick. This is Jack. It's Tuesday, T-Boy, Tuesday, October 28th. And today's pod is the best one yet. This is a T-Boy. The top three pop business news stories you need to know today. |
| 0:12.6 | Yeah, and he's Jack and I just want to give a shout out to our listeners in Uzbekistan. Oh, that's right. Yeah. All seven listeners in Uzbekistan, Jack. Yeah, we had that best fact yet about |
| 0:24.4 | cars in Uzbekistan. I looked it up in the data after we have seven MAUs, monthly active Uzbeks. |
| 0:31.4 | We love you for listening to the best one yet. To all the Uzbekistanian listeners right now, just trying to be the best on top of |
| 0:38.8 | business news in the entire country. You are. Jack and I got your back. So thank you for listening |
| 0:43.1 | from across the pond. Jack, it's across three ponds. Yeah, actually it's a landlock country. Jack, |
| 0:47.3 | three fantastic stories for today's team boy. What do we got on the pod? For our first story, |
| 0:52.1 | college football coaches are getting fired in record numbers this |
| 0:55.4 | year, but they're getting paid eight digits to not coach anymore. So Jack and I will explain why it can be |

| 1:09.3 | ever vending machine, and it's open 24-6. But it's not just Chick-fil-A just launched the chain's first ever vending machine, and it's open 24-6. |
| 1:12.5 | But it's not just Chick-fil-A. We've noticed that we're in the middle of a vending machine moment. |
| 1:17.8 | And our third and final story. Why are Creed, Star Wars, and the vampires from Twilight all going |
| 1:23.6 | viral 10 years later? Well, it's because of the fan edit. And pretty soon, that will |
| 1:29.0 | replace movie trailers altogether. But Yeties, before we hit that wonderful mix of stories. |
| 1:33.6 | Wow, what a mix of stories for T-boy Tuesday. Love the Mix Jack. Trigger warning. Yeah. Nick and I |
| 1:39.3 | have found a new type of inflation. Okay, but this is one you're gonna love. Because it's exclamation, inflation. |
| 1:47.8 | I'm sorry, Jack, I think you mean it's exclamation inflation. That's right, yeties. The use of |
| 1:54.2 | exclamation points, especially in work emails, is way up to an all-time high. Because, |
| 1:59.9 | Bessie, there are only two types of people in this world |
| 2:02.3 | and you know who they are. Those who never use exclamation points and those who love to use |
