Us, So I have an update for you. Officials at
Montgomery County Animal Shelter are thanking the public for stepping

asked for volunteers to foster animals because they're air conditioning
at the shelter.

Speaker 3 (00:36):
So DC's Attorney General is going after four drivers who
have racked out more than three hundred thousand dollars in
unpaid traffic tickets.

Speaker 1 (00:43):
But four drivers so.

Speaker 3 (00:45):
Attorney General Brian Schwab said that each driver has more
than one hundred tickets, with many of them written for
speeding or running red light. One Maryland driver sued by
Schwab allegedly has more than four hundred citations and more
than one hundred and sixty.

Speaker 1 (00:59):
Eight thousand dollars and paid fines. Isn't that crazy that
I don't.

Speaker 3 (01:06):
I one unpaid ticket and I'm stressing, Are you kidding?
So Schwab says that he wants to put an end
to drivers ignoring DC law and putting lives at risk.
And if you're looking for something fun to do, Bubble
Planet is coming to the district. So this is an
immersive at twelve interactive rooms. It includes an underwater room
featuring led lights. There's a massive bubble ocean. This looks

(01:29):
so awesome. It has a huge pink ocean of live
inflatable balloons, a giant dome bubble you can relax in there,
and then a real life size pool with plastic bubbles.
This is like a childhood dream like it just looks
like you could just be one kid, like a big
kid in this area. So organizers said it took about
a month to set up the building and called it
an opportunity connect with your inner child. And it is

(01:52):
going to be opening tomorrow And I looked and it's
in town until January, so you have a lot of time,
and it's for all ages, so deep on Time's Those
are the three things you need to.

Speaker 1 (02:02):
Know for today the gross You're welcome. I'm also saying
it's that we're doing wine night. Yeah. Self Sauce is
kind of their bestie then hoodies bringing Moro fantastic time
speaking hoodie. He sent me this the Hidden Tricks grocery stores.
You use it, you has spend more money, which is
like you don't think about those chains hiring legit psychologists
to help lay out the sore. There's a chain in

(02:24):
Connecticut that went with cane ones called Stu Leonards, which
if you ever it's it's worth the good Google. They
have animatronics throughout the whole store. Terrifying. Yeah, but it's
legitim maze. You have to start and go through the maze.
You can't. You can't hop ast like I can't. And
it is just like the animatronics like from like the seventies,

(02:44):
and it is just like if you're lacking about yourself,
you're not coming out a live Yeah it's gonna say that. So, uh,
there's a couple of things they do. It's a cornuous
study publishing the Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, which we love.
By the way, Yeah, products on the middle of a
shelf tend to out sell those on lower even high shelves.
That makes sense eye level, yeah, because they say that's
where our eyes go the first way. Yeah. They also

(03:05):
stay with kids cereal, like they want to be on
the lower shelf.

Speaker 2 (03:08):
Because that's like comparent Yeah, which kind of makes sense.

Speaker 1 (03:13):
So they talk to the CFO of Celsius Holdings, which
people love, self love. Yes, he had told the Wall
Street Journal, you want to be right there in your
sight line because that's what drives consumption. Yeah, that makes sense. Yeah,
they say a supermarketer or shop is the perfect base
where unconscious influence and our buying behavior significant. Turns out,
seventy percent of our buying decisions only made in the

(03:34):
store itself. Oh okay, I guess. So yeah, like when
you get there, so it's like, you know, you need
milk and eggs and whatever the hell you need, and
so you just when you whoever you see the first
of that's what you get.

Speaker 4 (03:45):
Which is especially like in the Fall, if I go
to Trader Joe's, which I feel like I could never
do it anymore, but if I do in the Fall,
I'm buying and stuff I don't even need, like like
I'll buy a bunch of apple cider I'm like, I'm one.

Speaker 1 (03:57):
Person beside a girly may if you want make hot sighter.

Speaker 4 (04:00):
In the morning so much and I'm like, I'm gonna
doze way.

Speaker 1 (04:04):
They also talked about why stores will move your favor
products move things around. This is somebody asked on Reddit
and the shelve workers. So they do it so that
you have to keep walking around the store, oh, looking
and stuff yeah, by more yes, potentially making things difficult
that you buy more stuff, yeah, which is kind of crazy.

(04:25):
So if you can't spot the idea that you're looking
for quickly, they'll walk around and find something else. I
hate that. Another consumer also verified the shelf placement theory,
knowing that in the soup aile, tomato and cream mushroom
soups are often placed in the bottom shelf as they're
the biggest sellers and they know people look around until
they find them. Oh the soup and eye level is
a slow seller. Kind of makes sense, Yeah, because you're

(04:48):
gonna get something else. That's kind of crazy. Try more soup.
Who doesn't love soup? This is definitely soup weather than
dm V too. Walk outside, you feel like a human soup.

Speaker 2 (04:58):
Hot girls love soup. John they really Yeah, even when
it's one hundred and fifty degrees out it's wall they're hot.
I'm learning new things. You are there.

Speaker 4 (05:07):
You intern John in your morning show an iHeartRadio
