Chick-fil-A Set To Debut New Honey Pepper Pimento Chicken Sandwich Starting August 28, 2023

The Honey Pepper Pimento Chicken Sandwich features an original Chick-fil-A filet, topped with custom-made creamy pimento cheese, mild pickled jalapeños and served on a warm, toasted bun drizzled with sweet honey.

When considering the perfect accompaniments to the Original Chick-fil-A Chicken Sandwich, Chick-fil-A Chef Stuart Tracy considered some of the popular components of a standout sandwich: savory, melty with just the right amount of salt and sweet to balance. With these elements in mind, he chose three ingredients to take the original in a new direction:

  • Pimento Cheese: Custom-made by Chick-fil-A, the combination of sharp cheddar cheese, green chilis and red pimentos work together to create a savory, melty spread atop the…

Kid Fury and Crissle on 10 Years of The Read

On Feb. 19, Manhattan’s Beacon Theater was at capacity for a live taping of The Read, the beloved pop culture podcast hosted by comedians Kid Fury and Crissle West. This show was particularly meaningful because they were celebrating the podcast’s 10th anniversary. Given their profession, Fury and West are always talking, but when their introduction was met with prolonged, thunderous applause, just for a moment, they were silent. “I definitely had a moment backstage where I started to get emotional,” West tells TIME a week later. “It’s wild to see how much progress we’ve made and how far the show has gone.”

Since 2013, three presidents and a never-ending list of celebrity antics have provided fodder for The Read. The for…

Joel Kim Booster on the Power of Chosen Family

Chosen family has been a central theme in Joel Kim Booster’s life. The 34-year-old multi-hyphenate highlighted this hilariously and poignantly in his first feature film, Fire Island, which he co-produced, wrote, and starred in. The movie, which adapts Jane Austen’s Pride & Prejudice with a queer spin, was released on Hulu in June, and it resonated broadly with the LGBTQ+ community. Booster was showered with praise by critics and viewers alike, who thanked him for depicting queer, Asian characters with complexity and nuance. “I think we should be demanding more than just representation at this point,” Booster tells TIME. “Ultimately, there has to be depth, there has to be more, and without that, it’s not representation at all.”<…

How Marvel Lost Its Way

It is almost impossible to follow the plot of the first episode of Season 2 of Loki. I say this as someone who has been writing about the Marvel Cinematic Universe for a decade. I’ve seen every major Marvel release more than once, and have enjoyed most of them. I’ve also paid close attention to the events of Loki Season 1, Avengers: Endgame, and Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania, all required viewing for this series. The characters spend most of the first episode explaining to the audience everything that happened in Season 1, which ended in one master timeline branching into many parallel timelines. Simultaneously they embark on vaguely related adventures.

Here’s what I can divine from the episode: Loki (Tom Hiddleston), Mobius (Owen Wilson…

Biden’s Free COVID-19 Test Plan Makes Manufacturers Ramp Up

After weeks of shortages across the country, Americans are gradually finding it easier to get their hands on at-home rapid antigen tests. That’s in large part because the Biden Administration’s massive buying spree is giving test companies the confidence to manufacture and distribute a product that, like the course of the pandemic itself, has an uncertain future.

Executives at several major test companies say that, while their production lines are ramping up, they are prioritizing orders from the federal government in order to deliver on those lucrative contracts. Because of that strategy, some other buyers—including retailers and state governments—are still finding it challenging to get enough tests to meet current demand. But supply constraints are expect…

IBM Was Once King of AI. CEO Arvind Krishna Is Trying to Reclaim That Title

(To receive weekly emails of conversations with the world’s top CEOs and business decisionmakers, click here.)

On the day IBM announced she’d be stepping down, exiting CEO Ginni Rometty called Arvind Krishna “the right CEO for the next era” at the company. “He is a brilliant technologist who has played a significant role in developing our key technologies such as artificial intelligence, cloud, quantum computing and blockchain,” she said.

Indeed, Krishna has spent his entire professional career at IBM. The electrical engineering doctorate, who has more than a dozen co-author credits on technology patents, started at the company’s Watson Research labs in 1990. He stayed there for nearly two decades and later serv…

Credit Suisse Staff Are Starting to Flood the Job Market

Recruiters across the world are getting an unprecedented flood of calls from Credit Suisse Group AG bankers seeking new jobs as the embattled Swiss lender is set to be taken over by UBS Group AG.

From Singapore to London to New York, headhunters and rival lenders have been fielding calls over the past few days from anxious Credit Suisse staff, according to people from more than a dozen firms with knowledge of the matter.

One firm in Singapore handled questions from some 30 mostly Credit Suisse private bankers about available jobs on Monday, while another recruiter in Hong Kong has been talking to more than 20 senior investment bankers since last week, the people said, asking not to be identified discussing confidential information. Meanwhile, a firm that’s focused on m…
