Fast Five | Gap's New CEO, Bed Bath's Rebirth & Amazon Grocery Hyperbole Too Silly To Believe

In this week’s Omni Talk Fast Five, sponsored by the A&M Consumer and Retail Group, Firework, SPS Commerce, and Sezzle, Chris and Anne discuss:

- Overstock going live with its Bed Bath & Beyond rebranding

- The ridiculous hyperbole surrounding Amazon's "biggest grocery overhaul since Whole Foods"

- Poshmark adding visual search to its mobile app

- Clevon embarking on multi-parcel autonomous last-mile delivery in Texas

- And closed with some skepticism surrounding Gap's new CEO hire

There’s all that, plus rocks in our food, some all-time great CEO name alliteration, and the degree to which Cap'n Crunch cereal tastes like Band-Aids.
