What if we told you that Pixar's beloved Toy Story franchise has layers of depth that many might overlook? Join us as we reexamine the heartwarming yet somber themes of Toy Story 3 and revisit the adventurous setting of Toy Story 2. This episode is packed with nostalgia and fun as Alex and Jordan make a lively appearance to discuss our mutual love for Wild Cherry Pepsi over a playful game of rock-paper-scissors. We also share some delightful memories from our visits to the Coca-Cola museum and the vibrant Coke shop in Las Vegas, where we sampled Coke flavors from around the globe. 

Get ready to dive into Pepsi's bold visual identity overhaul that’s stirring up the market. From its humble beginnings as Brad's Drink in 1898 to the fresh, modern look today, we break down the significance of Pepsi's rebrand. With its new logo featuring bold, uppercase typography reminiscent of the 1980s and 90s, Pepsi is blending its rich heritage with contemporary vibes. Tune in as we navigate the quirks of reading scripted dialogues designed for a single host but split between two, and discuss how AI-generated content can sometimes miss the mark, underscoring the indispensability of the human touch in creative endeavors.

Lastly, we delve into the playful yet competitive world of brand rivalries, focusing on the lighthearted jabs between giants like Pepsi, Coca-Cola, McDonald's, and Wendy's. Using Pepsi's recent rebranding efforts and Arby's modernization as case studies, we explore the challenges and potential impacts of rebranding. As we wrap up, we spill our excitement for the upcoming release of Deadpool 3 and tease our plans to analyze its marketing campaigns in future episodes. Don't forget to share your thoughts on Pepsi's rebrand and your brand loyalties with us!
