Would You Try a 'Scent-Based' Alarm Clock?
Would you consider waking up to a smell? Holiday Inn Express is rolling out a really weird but kind of genius idea: Instead of waking you up with a buzzing alarm, they’re installing scent-based alarm clocks in rooms.
When it’s time to get up, the device acts like a diffuser and releases breakfast smells like coffee, bacon, blueberry muffins, or even fruit scents like mango or pear, depending on where you are.
They’ll start this in hotels across Australia, New Zealand, Japan, Singapore, and Thailand.
The idea comes from research showing that 58% of travelers in the Asia Pacific say a pleasant scent helps make waking up better.
They’re calling it the “Breakfast Alarm Clock,” trying to help guests ease into their morning — and maybe make sure they don’t skip breakfast while traveling?

Dating app Plenty of Fish just released their annual list of the Top Dating Trends for the year ahead.
Did you realize we're less than 3 months away from 2026?

· Love-loreing: a.k.a. “dating for the plot”. It means saying yes to experiences just to see what happens.
· Curveball-crushing: Connecting with someone outside their usual “type”.
· Truecasting: Forgetting the filters and facades and showing up on apps and for dates as your true authentic self.
· Status-flexing: Situationships are out and defining the relationship is IN. Status-flexing is proudly labeling your status, whether “dating”, “exclusive”, or full-on “boyfriend/girlfriend”.

Some Offices Are Going 'Footwear-Free' and We Have Strong Feelings
Ew? Sisanie shared on-air there's a new workplace trend: ditching your shoes.
Some offices are going footwear-free as a way to reduce stress and make the workplace more comfortable.
Companies, especially startups, are experimenting with rules like: no bare feet, clean socks only, and you still wear shoes, but only in bathrooms or outdoors.
The idea is that letting people kick off their shoes can make things feel more relaxed, boost morale, and even help with creativity and focus.
Would you be into that? Listen back to Seacrest's strong opinion on the matter here
