Antonio and Iyube are live, live, live in the studio on a No-Format Friday, which also happens to be National Tell a Fairy Tale Day. Don’t mind if we do. Once upon a time, an associate named Belle from Store 1289 in the enchanted land of Jacksonville, North Carolina was named our Associate Caller of the Day. It was a great honor, which she used to wish a Happy Birthday to her friend Michael! In news of the day, a great bard from beyond the seas, Post Malone, recorded a cover of ‘Only Wanna Be With You’ by Hootie and the Blowfish. But the bard went beyond, changing the words from the original song, suggesting he often cries over “the Cowboys.” Even the mythical Dak Prescott can’t save some teams. In our Social Media Highlight of the Day, associates from around the company are climbing the beanstalk – listen in to celebrate promotions with Latasha, Sandra and Kim! Join us for all that, plus Friday Feud and Did You Know? on this No Format Friday!

Rachel Brand grew up in a small town in Iowa, graduated from Harvard Law School, began an amazing career as an attorney, was appointed to the Department of Justice - and now she’s our EVP of Global Governance, Chief Legal Officer, and Corporate Secretary. Wow! Her teams oversee everything from food safety and healthcare compliance to global security, aviation, and our Emergency Operations Center. Working at Walmart wasn’t something she planned to do, but her advice is to always be open to new opportunities. She saw how passionate we are about doing good for people in the world and wanted to be a part of it. Hear from her in this new episode of The Huddle with John Furner.

Today is National Tortilla Chip Day, and Bo asked how you say “tortilla.” We like to say there are no wrong answers, but there’s definitely a right one. Bo shared Axl Rose is appearing as a guest on an episode of “Scooby-Doo and Guess Who.” Turns out, Shaggy, Scooby and Axl go all the way back to the Sunset Strip days. Michqela from Store 2605 in Gallipolis, Ohio, was our Associate Caller of the Day. She gave a shoutout to the entire store and pharmacy. Tyler stopped by to talk about pharmacists and associates who have been helping with the COVID-19 vaccine. We are so grateful for everything they’re doing, and they deserve a round of applause from all of us. Not to be outdone by Scooby and his gang of mystery solvers, Jerrod from Santa Rosa Beach, Florida, cracked the Detective Product case! He gave a shoutout to his coworkers for supporting his super sleuthing. Bo’s Impossible Question of the Day asked: What do 94% of Americans say they don’t do anymore in 2021? There’s a good chance the answer remains unknown. Be sure to tune in with some chips and salsa to listen to all that and more.

Antonio started the show mixing metaphor and modernity, where TikTok’s earliest trend (throwin’ it back) meets the march of time on a Rollback Wednesday. Our Associate Caller of the Day was team lead Ashley from Store 1155 in Lumberton, North Carolina. She sang some Black Eyed Peas and gave a shoutout to the overnight associates. In news, iconic dance duo Daft Punk have called it quits after 28 years. The pair helped define an entire genre, giving us one more time to lose ourselves to dance, time and again. Our Social Media Highlight of the Day featured the “cobra team” at Store 2174 in Westfield, Massachusetts for their skill in wax on, wax off. Watch out, Mr. Miyagi! And you can get ready for today's National Tortilla Chip Day by sparking an impassioned discussion in your own home on the best toppings for nachos, and then making some. Join us for all that, plus Did You Know, This or That and some glorious throwback jams. Hit play!

It’s National Cook a Sweet Potato Day, but if you haven’t thrown one in the oven by now, it’s probably too late to start now. Bo discussed Metallica’s surprisingly not metal BlizzCon concert on Twitch. Due to copyright issues, when they played their hit "For Whom The Bell Tolls," the sound was replaced with what amounted to elevator music. Apparently, the bell tolls for everyone except people on Twitch. The Associate Caller of the Day was Regner from Store 2180 in Danvers, Massachusetts. He gave a rousing shoutout to all of his managers. Danielle from Store 2404 in San Antonio, Texas; Sophia from Store 100 in Bentonville, Arkansas; Sarah from Store 699 in Oxford, Mississippi; and Jeff “The Chatman” from Store 4168 in Beebe, Arkansas, provided some additional high energy shoutouts to fellow associates. In Milestone Minute, Heather talked to Julianne from Club 6220 in Slidell, Louisiana, about celebrating 35 years. Congrats, Julianne! Listen now to see if you can guess Bo’s Impossible Question of the Day which asked: In the U.S., 4,500 people a year injure themselves using what? Hint, the right answer is actually the No. 2 answer.

This Motivational Monday is about to get cooking! How else would you celebrate National Cook a Sweet Potato Day? Go and get those potatoes, put them in the oven and enjoy their sweet scrumptious insides! Antonio gave a sweet shoutout to our Associate Caller of The Day, team lead Dillon at Store 2167 in Exton, Pennsylvania. Stay warm out there, Dillon! In more sweet and warm news, Starbucks is offering a St. Patrick's Day treat over the next month, the Shamrock Tea. It's going to be featured on their “secret menu,” but instead of getting green with envy, get yourself a cup of tea and enjoy the sweet sauce! In Social Media Highlights, we gave a shoutout to Laura at Store 5142 in Neptune, New Jersey, for always keeping the registers clean and sanitized for safety! We also gave a shoutout to Olivia at Store 5090 in De Pere, Wisconsin. She is a new associate and is already getting the hang of the Easter merchandise. And, in a game of Did You Know?, Antonio lets us know that tying shoes is the hardest thing to teach your child. Teaching them how to whistle is a close second! Antonio also drops entertainment news, associate shoutouts and hits us with Rapid Questions. Listen now, to hear it all on this Motivational Monday.

It’s a No Format Friday, and Antonio is back in the studio to celebrate our associates! We kick it off with Associate Caller of the Day and friend of the show Hakeeme at Store 713 in Dade City, Florida. Hakeeme has called before, but it took him eight months to finally become our first caller! If NASA didn’t teach you yesterday, listen to Hakeeme: Perseverance pays off. In news, the frigid temperatures in Texas may finally be in retreat, but not before state employees and conservationists had to rescue thousands of turtles shocked to shore by record low temperatures. Good news though, they’re making a graceful return to the water today, just like Godzilla at the end of every good movie. We heard a great shoutout from Jerry at Store 2716 in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, who called in with Texas on his mind, leaving a message for associates working through brutal conditions: “We feel for them.” We sure do, Jerry. In the Social Media Highlight of the Day, we highlight Liz from Store 419 in Pratt, Kansas, for going above and beyond by helping prepare Fresh areas for customers then jumping over to other areas of the store to help however she can. Way to go, Liz! Check out all that, plus Bo’s Top 10 New Music Countdown, Friday Feud and Did You Know?

It was a Rollback Wednesday full of associates, and customers who called in with shoutouts and guesses for Bo’s Impossible Question of the Day and Detective Product. Do you know what 33% of married men say they have borrowed from their wife? Don’t sweat it. Stick with us, and we might roll-on to the answer. Our Associate Caller of the Day was Brent from Store 4350 in Kilmarnock, Virginia, with a shoutout for the CAP2 team and his entire store. On Detective Product, Bo looked for a product sold in stores and clubs that rhymes with Dracula. Hmmm. 🤔 A customer in Brunswick, Georgia, called with a lot of love for the associates who helped him get a new set of tires. Wendy from Store 5199 in Antioch, Illinois, was featured in Heather’s Milestone Minute with a story about Mr. Sam. Congrats to Wendy for 25 years with Walmart! And, Carlos from Store 3473 in Las Vegas, Nevada, called in to appreciate his fellow associates. Hit play to listen to that and a whole lot more.

It’s a Rollback Wednesday, so Antonio takes it way, way back – we’re talking 1813 Britain. In the spirit of the times, he unveils his Bridgerton name: Lord Antonio Coffeeton of Timberland. You can put your own Bridgerton name together via a simple formula, (Lord or Lady) + (your first name) + (the last thing you had to drink, with the word ‘ton’ on the end) + (brand of shoes you wore today). Try it out and drop Antonio a line with your Bridgerton name on IG or Twitter! Our First Associate Caller of the Day was Dora, from Store 1131 in Taylorsville, North Carolina. And in other associate news, Lord Coffeeton fielded a beautiful shoutout from John at Store 695 in Nashville, Tennessee. John called with a shoutout to his best friend, Steve, who he’s been best friends with since kindergarten – and has 40 years as a Walmart associate. Steve just lost his mom to COVID-19, so John wanted to tell his friend he was in his thoughts. And now, he’s in ours, too. In Did You Know?, 58% of people have said this is the most embarrassing thing to happen involving their cars. Well, dear reader, let’s just say that this author was once bested so thoroughly by a parking garage that she was hours late to a date. Tune in for the answer, plus the InstaRewind, What’s Good Walmart and This or That on a Rollback Wednesday!

Bo started off this frigid Motivational Monday with a post Valentine’s Day themed Impossible Question of the Day. “What did 11% of people do on Valentine's Day?” Here’s a hint: It’s never an ex-cellent idea to do this! Our Associate Caller of the Day was Maria from Store 3456 in Hope Mills, North Carolina, with a shoutout to the pharmacy team. Bo played, “Maria, Maria” by Santana in her honor. Tomorrow is National Do A Grouch a Favor Day, so find the grouchiest person you know and make their day a little bit easier. They may not thank you, but hey, what did you expect? They’re grouches! Bo gave a shoutout to Diane at Store 40 in Moberly, Missouri. She just returned to work after her second knee surgery. Lucas from Walmart’s Emergency Operations Center gave us a weather update, and we heard from Tyler with a “What’s Good, Walmart?” love story featuring Debra from Store 925 in Sefner, Florida. Listen now!
