Dan DennisHOST
And they, you know-
Tom VannHOST
America runs on Dunkin'.
TracyGUEST
But maybe-
Dan DennisHOST
[laughs]
TracyGUEST
Maybe they weren't forced.
TracyGUEST
[laughs]
Dan DennisHOST
You've never seen Dunkin'? Come on.
Tom VannHOST
No offense.
Christopher BernardGUEST
Good.
Christopher BernardGUEST
And with her, it's Dunkin' Donuts? I swear my ex tried to call me.
Christopher BernardGUEST
She tried to call me one night when I was hanging out with her.
Christopher BernardGUEST
And I did not want to answer her.
Jimmy SaganbergerPANELIST
They want to be working from home.
Jimmy SaganbergerPANELIST
As a remote employee myself, someone who writes at a Dunkin' Donuts or a Starbucks, you know, I can understand that.
Jimmy SaganbergerPANELIST
However, when we're talking about downtown Denver in particular, you've got that dynamic, which may only be cured by employers saying, we are requiring you as a condition of our employees.
Jimmy SaganbergerPANELIST
to come to work, but the bigger thing is public safety and also parking and affordable parking.
Richard KaufmanHOST
Well, now also, what...
Richard KaufmanHOST
You know, some, some franchises are, um, a little bit more cost-effective I should say, but a couple years ago we were looking at buying a Dunkin' Donuts, and we were shocked on what they wanted just for you to buy into a Dunkin' Donuts.
Richard KaufmanHOST
It was something really, something s- really stupid.
Richard KaufmanHOST
I mean, it was, like, crazy money.
Jeff ShafritzGUEST
Um, it's interesting i- because when you're, when you're getting into the, into the business, uh, you, you, you do wanna make sure that, that y- this, this system, like, i- is, is tight and is something that's re- re- uh, replicatable, not just something that, you know, they had a good idea and the, they were successful at it, and, and, and so you think you can do it too.
Jeff ShafritzGUEST
I mean, you've, you're, you're really buying that, that system that's been proven, uh, to be successful, and that system that, that fits what you're looking for.
Jeff ShafritzGUEST
But when you look at something like a Dunkin' Donuts being expensive, you are paying that tax.
Jeff ShafritzGUEST
You know, I know you said you're not p- you're paying it in the form of a franchise fee and you're paying it in the form of royalties.
Doug BransonHOST
I haven't seen a Baskin Robbins in like five years where you just get like get the normal flavors.
Walker MehlHOST
I think you'd be maybe happy to know that the Baskin-Robbins Dunkin' Donuts combo on South Tryon is still there.
Walker MehlHOST
It is still there all the way back from yesteryear.
Walker MehlHOST
So that's the only one I know of, though.
JoeAUDIENCE
But during the day there is whole bunch of shops, right Em? What do we got here? Like a-
EmmyAUDIENCE
Uh, Dunkin'
JoeAUDIENCE
... a Dunkin' Donuts?
EmmyAUDIENCE
Yeah, and there's a Dunkin' Donuts across the street, and then this plaza we're staying at the hotel.
JoeAUDIENCE
Yep, there's a couple of hotels in the plaza.
JoeAUDIENCE
During the daytime, it's, it's really nice.
Brad EvansGUEST
So as long as Joe Burrow is adequately protected, and that's always the $64,000 question, he remains upright, has those clean pockets.
Brad EvansGUEST
He's going to deliver another, but strikes! to do more chase and chase will probably forward with at least 75, 80 yards and a touchdown, which means he'll probably open up a Dunkin' Donuts.
Brad EvansGUEST
There'll be zeros across the board.
James RapienHOST
Yeah, you certainly hope not for sure.
speaker_1HOST
Consider the morning coffee routine.
speaker_1HOST
We are seeing massive chains like Starbucks and Dunkin' introducing poutine shots and collagen add-ins to their beverage menus.
DonHOST
Oh, I've seen that.
speaker_1HOST
They are taking an everyday, deeply ingrained consumer habit purchasing iced coffee and seamlessly converting it into a wellness routine.
Liz DunnGUEST
Yeah, and this is also why many of the places that serve bagels that are national chains like Panera, like Einstein, like Breugers, I actually think Breugers still makes theirs in-house.
Liz DunnGUEST
But for the most part, or like even a Dunkin', because I know they have a bagel sandwich, like, you know, you're looking at that if you run one of these businesses, you're looking at the effort required to make a quote-unquote a true bagel versus what can I do that just gives me a round piece of bread that looks like a bagel? And I'm not really sure that my customer cares that much or really even knows what a great bagel is like.
Liz DunnGUEST
I'm definitely going to choose the thing that's, you know, I don't know, 20% of the cost.
Liz DunnGUEST
You know, these are all like the reasons why people have cut corners over the years.
Paul KuhnHOST
Sure, sure.
Paul KuhnHOST
Are we talking from Caribou, Starbucks, Dunkin'? Yes, yes.
Paul KuhnHOST
Okay, perfect.
Paul KuhnHOST
Like a specialty drink.
