Happy New Year! In the first show of 2024, here's what's on tap:

Planet Fitness collaborates with Megan Thee Stallion, releasing fitness-focused merchandise like shirts and water bottles. However, they could have expanded their range to include more diverse fitness gear.

Pringles' unexpected partnership with a caviar company demonstrates the effectiveness of unconventional brand collaborations.

The Pop-Tarts Bowl used a mascot effectively for marketing but missed a chance to further capitalize on this popularity through merchandise like toys or apparel.

Chipotle's "fan-inspired car napkin holder" is a creative product that turns a common customer habit into a branding opportunity.

South Park's "Snow Day" video game, particularly its collector's edition with exclusive merchandise, shows the value of special editions in marketing.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
