Manage episode 396826619 series 2971091
Join Melody and Candi as they explore the curious world of consumer fads and their influence on our choices, zooming in on the latest obsession with Stanley thermos cups. Listen in as they ponder the nostalgic charm of the original Stanley thermos and how its rebirth as a hip beverage container seems to captivate the younger crowd, convincing them to shell out more just for the brand. We also muse over the societal urge to keep up with the Joneses, reminiscing about past crazes like wallabies shoes and the once-coveted image of clutching a Starbucks cup or sporting a Bluetooth headset.
