[Audio Pod] Business of the Super Bowl, and Trump's Board of Peace

Loading player...
This week on Insider Exchange, we kick off with our viral Milk Stout clip — now 100k views deep. We learned it’s called a “2-by-1” (or 2-in-1), comes in wild variations, and apparently even has unconventional uses. South Africa, we see you.

In Useful Updates, we cover DStv entering ride share conversations, SAA returning to profit, Mining Indaba underway, fresh economic data, the FCA publishing trading data, Afreximbank developments, Hyprop’s continued exit from Joburg, and gold quietly climbing back above $5,000.

In the Deep Dive, we unpack the Super Bowl business model how the biggest game in sport is really one of the most powerful commercial machines on the planet.

In Make-It-Make-Sense, we talk blue cars making a comeback, Trump launching what looks like his own version of the UN, and the MrBeast puzzle economy.

We wrap with an Unfiltered Opinion as Simon, who used to work in restaurants, shares how to actually win Valentine’s Day. Hint: it’s probably not that overbooked, overpriced restaurant.
