The Best One Yet - 🍂 “Leaf Blower Problems”— Electric Leaf Blowers’ broken biz model. TicketMaster’s European T-Swift breakup. Work-From-Home’s shopping surge.

The Department of Justice just sued to break up Live Nation from Ticketmaster — But there’s a solution to the $10,000 Taylor Swift concert ticket, and we found it in Paris, France.

Summer has unofficially begun, which means a leaf blower is about to interrupt your lovely afternoon — But the electric leaf blower’s boom has a big business model problem.

And because of Work-From-Home, we’re spending $375B more shopping online midday: It’s nationwide Retail Therapy - And the most popular hour everyone shops is… 11am Friday.

Plus, with inflation so high, dupes aren’t just popular with denim, they’re popular with travel —So we want to hear your “Destination Dupes” (because Liverpool is basically lower-priced London).

The Best One Yet - 🍹 “The drink of the summer” — BeatBox’s summer surge. Cars’ anti-speeding feature. Nvidia’s 288-pound superchip.

What will be the drink of the summer? We predict it will be BeatBox’s boxed punch wine — And we used 3 trendspotting strategies to make the forecast.

What if your car honked at you every time you drove over 80mph? A new California law may make that happen — Drivers are surprised, but we think it’ll be standard soon… in every car in America.

And Nvidia’s blockbuster earnings report was fueled by sales of their AI superchip — But this ain’t no computer chip, it’s a 288-pound, $40K computing mothership.

Plus, the new trend is “Quiet Vacationing”: When you take vacation on a workday, but you didn’t tell your manager (and today is the ultimate Quiet Vacation Day).


P.S. Tomorrow we’re whipping up a special show for you before Memorial Day Weekend: TBOY Hotline #2 — Our monthly call-in show where we answer your questions on life, work, investing, and do some startup co-founder match-making. Oh, and we’ll deal with the “BerryGate” controversy.
