What?
Not on Madison Avenue, not a square. The arena's circular, and it's between 7th and 8th Avenue. Although we should point out from the Knicks game last night, underrated sushi at Madison Square Garden. Still, where's the garden? I was looking everywhere for this garden. We're going to have to ask a geometrist. We posted some highlights from our night at MSG on Instagram. They were highlights.
But Jack, the three stories for today's T-Boy, they're fantastic. What do we got on today's show? For our first story, the guy who shot the UnitedHealthcare CEO has been charged with murder and he has gone viral online. Besties, this killing, it has erupted pent-up frustrations with the entire healthcare industry.
For our second story, Louis Vuitton, the fashion brand, has acquired a hotel, a restaurant, and the most famous train on earth. Louis Vuitton is betting its business on the Orient Express. And our third and final story is the fastest growing coffee chain in New York by far. Motto Coffee, we dove in T-boy style. Because Motto Coffee figured out how to scale the $3 latte.
We didn't believe it, so we went there and we figured out how they scale the $3 latte. I'm Daffinated on a model latte. We know what's in it. We found out what's in it. But yetis, before we hit that wonderful mix of stories. I mean, fantastic mix of stories. I love this mix, Jack. I can't believe we're less than two weeks from Christmas. I mean, Jack, you can almost smell the mistletoe out there.
I can still smell my two Christmas trees. But Jack, we should point out the hot new food trend before the holiday. It is in gingerbread houses. Introducing the charcuterie chalet. It's charcuterie chalet. We'll go with any pronunciation, besties. It's a food-based, three-dimensional creation that's also shaped like a house. But instead of gingerbread, the walls are made of deli meats.
And instead of gumdrops, it's decorated with gorgonzola. And instead of icing, it's more deli meats. There's actually salami on the top here.
My dad would love this.
The charcuterie chalet was actually invented by Aldi's, the German grocery store. And in this economy, charcuterie chalets are beating the gingerbread house. Because ginger prices are up 30% this year to an all-time high. But cheese prices are actually down this year. But it's not just prices. No, it's not. It's way cooler to say charcuterie chalet than gingerbread house.
