Boost Mobile's Affordable Plan

Boost Mobile announces a new plan offering unlimited talk, text, and data for just $25 a month, guaranteed for life as long as customers remain active on the Boost Unlimited plan. After 30 gigabytes of data usage, users might experience slower speeds, but the value remains compelling. The marketing emphasizes the permanence of this plan, humorously suggesting it lasts 'forever'—even beyond the major life events such as aging and having children. This promotional strategy plays on the idea of long-term affordability in a typically expensive industry, drawing attention to their competitive position in the market.

We get to see a legend’s True Colours on the podcast this week! We joined the powerhouse hitmaker Cyndi Lauper for lunch in central London and mum cooked up some borscht especially for the occasion. It was a total honour to hear Cyndi’s stories; we learnt how she grew up in the same house as her whole extended family, how she would play tricks on her priest, her tips on cooking the perfect Italian pasta sauce, how she got kidney stones from spinach, the incredible LGBTQIA+ advocacy work she does, and she confesses that her upcoming tour really will be her last. We sent Cyndi home with some boxes of mum’s borscht - us girls really did have fun with Cyndi, you really don’t want to miss her upcoming UK tour it sounds incredible! Tickets for the ‘Girls Just Want To Have Fun, Farewell Tour’ are available through Cyndi’s website now.
