This week we’re spilling the tea on who really makes more—men or women 💰 (brace yourselves). We’ll tell you what the ‘average’ family of four brings in 🏠 (spoiler: it’s giving ‘not enough’) and why Grandma’s still working the register instead of bingo night 👵🏼. Plus, a peek at the juicy stuff coming in future episodes—you’re gonna want to hang around for this.

"This week we’re debating Sydney Sweeney’s new jeans campaign—was it about denim or DNA? 👖🧬 Christina’s taking you behind the scenes on her QVC rep journey 📺, and we’re diving into the ultimate showdown: do women or men spend more on looking good? (Spoiler: the receipts may surprise you.)"

What did we even talk about? 

This week we’re pouring one out—literally—for Costco’s legendary vodka 🥂 and spilling where to actually find their best booze. Christina’s back from a wild week in Florida with Jen 🌴, we’re talking why tariffs might have you buying those sneakers NOW 👟, and which companies are hiking prices. Oh—and yes, Halloween and Christmas are already fighting for shelf space… in August. 🎃🎄

This week we’re sinking into the topic of furniture—and by sinking, we mean literally. How are people buying couches online without sitting in them first? Make it make sense. We’re talking Wayfair, West Elm, Overstock, and the ghost of Bed Bath & Beyond (seriously, if anyone has the inside scoop—DM us). Matthew airs his beef with influencers and their suspiciously perfect living rooms, while Christina just wants something comfy that doesn’t cost a month’s rent.

Pull up a chair (preferably one you’ve actually sat in) and join us.

This week, we cover everything and nothing (as usual). Christina is dreaming of early retirement, Matthew’s dodging his dentist, and we go off on a rant about the scam that is TV pricing—$39.99 x 6? No thanks. We unpack all the “exclusive” clubs you never signed up for but somehow pay monthly fees for, and of course, Matthew reminds us he’s proudly cheap. Also, Wawa—if you’re listening, we love you. Sponsor us?

It’s messy, honest, and weirdly informative. Just how we like it.

This episode starts with a deep (and slightly chaotic) dive into the origin of the color purple — yes, really. Matthew, are you okay? What is happening? From there, we pivot (hard) into comp shopping: what it means, why it matters, and how to stay competitive in the retail game. Whether you're pricing a product or just nosy at the store, this one's for you. And hey… send us fan mail. We’re ready for our inbox to pop. 💌

After a brief break (read: technical chaos and unemployment), we’re back and bolder than ever. This episode, we dive deep into America’s 9 biggest discount retailers, debate Dollar General vs. Family Dollar, and rank 5 discounters worst to best... then back again because we can’t commit.
Also: Matthew has strong feelings about carts, we’re both unemployed (lol), and apparently we’re consultants now. Call us?

This one’s a ride. We’re talking placentas in cosmetics (yes, you read that right), Dorothy Matthews’ stepmom’s surprising ties to Max Factor, and the ever-growing world of celebrity lifestyle brands. From old Hollywood glam to modern-day marketing machines, we’re pulling back the velvet curtain on beauty’s weirdest, wildest origins.

This week on Retail & Wholesale: All the Dirty Little Secrets
We’re spilling tea on diffusion brands (you know, the "designer... but make it cheaper" play), diving into the sneaky world of concealed shortages (Matthew’s weird obsession, don’t ask), and reminiscing about six jobs that have totally disappeared—shoutout to the old-timers who remember them!
From markdown magic to behind-the-scenes hustle, this episode is packed with the stuff they don’t put in the training manual.
