the Decline of Tim Horton's (with Corey Mintz)

Once upon a time, I loved Tim Horton's. I drank their coffee and I ate their fresh baked goods, but those days are gone. The love affair is long over. To put it bluntly, I think they suck now.\xa0What puzzles me, is that it wasn't always this way and that's why I'm left with burning questions...\xa0\nWhen did they lose their way, why did they lose their way, and will they ever get back the magic they used to have?\xa0\nIt wasn't until I happened upon a piece of investigative journalism in a MacLean's magazine that the full picture of this betrayal became apparent.\xa0The piece was titled "How Tim Horton's lost it's way" and as I read it the veil of marketing that had obscured the slow decline of Tim Horton\u2019s was forcefully pulled away and Canada's dirty secret was exposed.\xa0\xa0\nSome of the points raised in that article will be discussed and expanded upon in this episode as in this episode, I'm joined by author and journalist Corey Mintz.\xa0\nOur topic is the DECLINE of Tim Hortons.\xa0\nLinks referenced in the episode:\nCorey Mintz on twitter: https://twitter.com/coreymintz\nHow Tim Hortons lost it\u2019s way:\xa0https://www.macleans.ca/opinion/how-tim-hortons-lost-its-way/\nRecreating Tim Hortons Menu for the Better: https://www.macleans.ca/opinion/recreating-the-tim-hortons-menu-for-the-better/\nTim Hortons Needs to Stop Dreaming: https://www.macleans.ca/opinion/tim-hortons-needs-to-stop-dreaming/\nContact:\nWebsite: https://www.nighttimepodcast.com\nTwitter: https://twitter.com/NightTimePod\nFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/NightTimePod\nInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/nighttimepod\nSupport the show: https://www.patreon.com/nighttimepodcast\nPremium Feed: https://www.patreon.com/Nighttimepodcast\nLearn more about your ad choices.
