Bond and Sri Rajagopalan (The CPG Guys), to dissect a retail landscape currently in the throes of a "hot mess" transformation. They navigate the complex collision of agentic AI, the shifting power of retail media, and a growing leadership talent crisis. From why Target is struggling to the "intransigence" of Trader Joe's e-commerce stance, this conversation reveals why the old rules of retail no longer apply in a world where 100% of purchases are digitally influenced.  Highlights:<ol><li>The AI Pivot: Why brand websites are shifting from consumer journeys to LLM data repositories. </li><li>The Retail Media Paradox: How budget silos are making retail media counterproductive for merchants. </li><li>Talent Gaps: The urgent need for C-suite leaders to understand TikTok and social trends, not just P&L management. </li><li>Store Evolution: Why the physical store must pivot to "high discovery" perimeter experiences while center-store moves online. </li><li>Who’s Winning & Not:  Retailers and brands who recognize why old rules don’t apply.</li></ol>CPG Guys Website: <a href='http://cpgguys.com/'>http://CPGguys.com</a> FMCG Guys Website: <a href='http://fmcgguys.com/'>http://FMCGguys.com</a> SheCOMMERCE Website: <a href='https://shecommercepodcast.com/'>https://shecommercepodcast.com/</a> Rhea byRaj’s Website: <a href='http://rhearaj.com/'>http://rhearaj.com</a> Lara Raj in Katseye: <a href='https://www.katseye.world/'>https://www.katseye.world/</a>DISCLAIMER: The content in this podcast episode is provided for general informational purposes only.
