Episode Synopsis
The Future of Almost Everything with WTMJ hosts Jeff Sherman and Martin Moore.
TWO UP:
1. Is a Trump-Elon breakup imminent. The U.S. President told cabinet members that his role in the federal government may be coming to an end.
2. Jeff went over the most recent job and payroll data.
Peeps was teaming up with a milk company to release a limited time product (and yes, it is full of sugar). Locally, the Racine Art Museum opened a Peeps exhibit. Jeff and Martin talked about campaigns like this using nostalgia to sell products.
Meta was collaborating with Ray-Ban to compete in the smart glasses market. Between them, Apple and Google, Jeff and Martin discussed who might win.
Ticketmaster was making changes as a reaction to an executive order from President Trump to ticketing transparency.
The 1982 Milwaukee Brewers documentary “Just a Bit Outside” had just become available on Roku. Jeff asked Martin what sports documentary should be made next.
TikTok's future was in peril once again as Trump was pushing to get it sold to an American company; Heff and Martin speculate which buyer would be the best option.
The Midwest Gaming Classic was this weekend at Milwaukee’s Baird Center. Jeff and Martin talked about the future of video games with Nintendo’s announcement for the Switch 2 console and rising prices for video games.
