Ep 4 // McBroken, the Quibi Shutdown, the Moldy Whopper, and learning about business and community Kinetik Creators

This week is a battle of the fast food brands. The two contenders are a (non-affiliated) McDonald’s ice cream status website and Burger King’s “Moldy Whopper” campaign. But wait, a new contender has entered the ring, is that, yes it is. It’s the Quibi Shutdown coming to take the title of most expensive investment failure. Not to be outdone, Apple TV+ has signed Jon Stewart to elevate their late night line up. And finally, we learn a little bit (twenty of them actually) about starting a business and community.
