Episode 175 | "1% Talk‪"‬ Corie Sheppard Podcast

    • Society & Culture

In this week's episode we take a deep dive into KFC's increases prices and the boycott that followed. Someone by the name of Alex Mouttet, not speaking on behalf of the family of course, came out and made some disparaging remarks about doubles vendors and roti shop owners that seems to have added fire to the calls for a PHL boycott.
We take a look at some Econ and Marketing theory to explain why boycotts based on price are unlikely to work and what makes this one different.
The Caribbean heads have taken a stance on violent and vulgar lyrics in the music so we revisit our position on this and try to see whether or not it's likely to work.
On a lighter note we 're asking for some feedback on weight loss drugs like Ozempic and surgical procedures like BBLs as they become more and more popular down here.
Looking forward to your thoughts!

Enjoy!!
