This is Nick. This is Jack. Welcome back. It is Monday, May 12th. And today's pod is the best one yet. This is a T-boy. The top three pop business news stories you need to know today. Yetis, before we hit the pod, I just got to sing the praises of how great a father Jack is. Can I do this for a moment, Jack? Where is this coming from, man?
Okay, the other week, Jack hosted his son's birthday party. He wanted dinosaurs. Jack did a dinosaur Easter egg hunt. Yeah, I know. It was amazing, wasn't it? Okay, and then... He wanted dinosaurs, more dinosaurs. So Jack got a wedding cake themed like dinosaurs for his four-year-old son. The giant three-tiered birthday cake was actually Alex's doing, but thank you.
I'll spread the credit to her too. The baker said it was unprecedented, but Jack, amazing work. He's balancing so much. Very kind, Nick. Thank you, man. But Jack, three stories for today. T-Boy, what do we got on the pod? For our first story, the price of lab-grown diamonds have fallen by 90%. So Jack and I got to tell you about Walmart's $299 diamond ring dupe.
For our second story, for the first time ever, podcasts will be a new category at the Golden Globe Awards. So we've got a brand new prediction. The Emmys are going to embrace YouTube. And our third and final story. All the big food companies are scared of one single app. Yeah. The Yuka app. That's right. This food scanning app, Yuka, is now the FDA of the people.
But Yetis, before we hit that wonderful mix of stories. No one else is doing that mix. Love the mix today, Jack. You just finished a weekend. Yeah. You probably have some regrets. Maybe you regret you did too little. Maybe you regret you did a little bit too much. Which is why we want to tell you about the newest industry. The regret industry. Or the regerts industry. If you know, you know.
There's an entire economy based on undoing things you did, but wish you didn't. Well, perfect example we found. Tattoo removal is booming these days. Get this. Removery just raised $50 million in VC money for a tattoo removal chain. Jack, they already got 150 locations. Tattoo removal. It's the next Starbucks. Forget AI. This is the next FOMO Silicon Valley investment trend.
Apparently Mark Andreessen wants to disrupt the tramp stamp. Yes, he does. Now, the real reason VC loves tattoo removal- Is good. It takes 10 sessions to remove a tattoo. Like we say, where there's repetition, there's revenue. Nothing against tattoos, by the way. In fact, I'm thinking about getting a tattoo to somehow commemorate all my three boys. Are you going to get a dinosaur for one of them?
Like to really make it special? Triceratops, Brontosaurus, and Gigantosaurus. I'm not discouraging it, Jack, but, you know, be careful because the regret economy, it is real, man. Oh, boy. Yeah, we also call this the Control Z Incorporation. Yeah, I'm going to want to Control Z that pterodactyl. Yeah, maybe when you're 73. So, Jack, what's the takeaway for our buddies in the regret economy?
You can sell just as many erasers as you do pencils. Actually, ten times more erasers. Your move, SoftBank.
