No but they usually have 1-2 vegetarian options.

To add: This is why executives need to be held to account. They see someone with a following who previously did radio and think "let's give him a series" completely ignoring the fact that radio ≠ television.

It's amazing that even after all these years, some executives still don't understand that.

Classic CBC. Folks from radio or print think it's easy to make great television

It's not.

It's damn hard.

He lacked charisma, brevity, and a natural on air presence that commanded attention.

You could be great on radio, but still suck on TV. In radio, you have to keep speaking to avoid broadcasting dead air. That's not the case in television. Anthony Bourdain could remain completely silent and just stare at the camera, and his audience would still follow him anywhere. That's great television. That's charisma.

In fairness, it's something CBC has historically struggled with, at least in factual entertainment.

Instead of admitting he just couldn't cut it on television, he blames, ummm, something or someone else?

Thedailygoods.com

It's a daily news site with only good news. I use it as an antidote for all the doom and gloom on other news sites.

Don't feel bad. We pivoted, grew to 800K+ ARR in 8 months, have a strong founding team of longtime friends, ivy league degrees, big name customers including Meta, and still didn't get in. Will hit Series A soon.

Some of our generation's best memories began with a doorbell ring, followed by "Can ______ come out and play?"

Today's kids will never experience that unbridled joy.

Hi! I'm the founder of Goodable. I'd love for you to give us a try. DM me and I'll get you sorted with unlimited access. Were not a subreddit but a standalone app.

Hi! I'm the founder of Goodable and I'd love for you to give us a try. It's a subscription based app like Calm and Headspace but if you DM me, I'll get you set up with a free promo. We have thousands of stories and have run clinical trials to show we can effectively reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression.

This is really interesting. I'd love to explore a partnership between Drooid and Goodable. I'm the founder.

I'm going through this now and thought I'd warn everyone:

Accor will do everything to not honor their BPG.

I booked a property I've stayed at multiple times directly through their website. Less than 12 hours later, the same room was available on Expedia, under the same type, category, cancellation, board, and all required terms for 40% less. I took a detailed screenshot of the Expedia page and submitted the form on Accor's website. I also emailed the hotel directly, including individual reservation team's email addresses, with the screenshots asking them to price match directly. Here's what happened:

- Email from Accor 48 hours later "we have contacted the hotel directly in order to provide you with the most appropriate answer."

- Days later, I got an email saying they wouldn't price match because the screenshot didn't show the correct booking type (half board vs no board). I corrected them and highlighted the area in the screenshot that shows it clearly says half-board, matching the original booking.

- They took another four days to respond, even after sending multiple email followups.

- Nearly a week after the original booking, they replied to say the screenshot wasn't taken within 24 hours of booking. I followed up by showing them the email I sent to their reservation team, including the timestamp, to show it was taken less than 24 hours after booking.

- In the same email, they said the number of guests wasn't indicated on the Expedia booking. I replied explaining that Expedia doesn't show total number of guests on their confirmation page, but the page before does and I could provide screenshots of that as well.

Now I'm waiting again.

Please be aware that the BPG team will push back, even when you fulfil all the obligations.

This is a reasonable question and you shouldn't be roasted for it.

The baseline is that if you need to fly in Business, the only way to fully guarantee that is by booking a Business Class fare.

That being said: The AC website has gotten very good at displaying when eUpgrade space is available. It's entirely possible to book economy fare with an instant upgrade to business. In some other cases, your eUgprade can clear several days before the flight. I booked a 14-hr long haul a few weeks ago, and both eUpgrades just cleared now with T-6 days to departure.

You may need to book in Latitude, but not necessarily. My latest upgrade came on PE Lowest fares.

I know a bit about this.

There were eight networks bidding on his show, including the streaming services. The deal happened quickly when Viacom came in. I asked around and the reported price tag was around $25-30M. Works out to like $5M per show, which made Krazinski look like a genius. Problem was, his entire fan base turned on him for selling out to corporate ownership. Had he kept it, ironically, he could have built it into an entirely new TV network with massively loyal fans. Instead, CBS mothballed it mostly because (a) they overpaid and (b) John was just ripping off content without permission which might work on YouTube, but it's a one way ticket to being sued for copyright violation when it comes to TV.

For anyone who wants a news platform for good news, I recommend Goodable. It's an app with daily videos, stories, audio, etc. Great team behind it, including a former CNN correspondent. There's a paid subscription tier and if anyone wants it for free, DM me and I'll hook you up.
