WEBVTT - Mornings with Thom Brennaman 10/9/2025 0:00:00.880 --> 0:00:07.480 Raise your arms and shout, Yeah, it's money time. This 0:00:08.039 --> 0:00:11.600 is the Bloomberg Money Minute on seven hundred WLWA. 0:00:11.600 --> 0:00:13.560 All right, let's go to New York City and check 0:00:13.600 --> 0:00:18.040 in with our friend from the Bloomberg newsroom, Gina serve Vetti. 0:00:18.280 --> 0:00:23.120 Delta Airlines big presence here in Cincinnati. C strong demand, Gina, 0:00:23.200 --> 0:00:25.599 heading into twenty twenty six. 0:00:26.720 --> 0:00:29.920 That's right, Tom, good morning. The airline is predicting continued 0:00:30.000 --> 0:00:33.800 strong demand right into next year. After reporting better than 0:00:33.840 --> 0:00:37.640 expected earnings for the third quarter, Delta was lifted by 0:00:37.720 --> 0:00:41.600 leisure travelers splurging on premium seats and a rebound in 0:00:41.680 --> 0:00:45.560 corporate travel. Delta and United both have also been really 0:00:45.640 --> 0:00:48.960 gearing a lot of their offerings toward that luxury traveler, Tom. 0:00:49.200 --> 0:00:53.960 Yeah, and we heard about the airline earlier today. We 0:00:54.080 --> 0:00:56.760 were talking about the story about they're charging you now 0:00:56.840 --> 0:00:58.920 to have a seat which reclines. 0:01:00.480 --> 0:01:01.520 Yeah, and that good news. 0:01:02.000 --> 0:01:04.560 Warner Brothers, meanwhile, is said to be teaming up with 0:01:04.680 --> 0:01:07.319 Netflix on music documentaries. 0:01:07.360 --> 0:01:08.280 I love those things. 0:01:09.120 --> 0:01:11.240 Yeah, if you are a fan of that behind the 0:01:11.319 --> 0:01:13.880 music series, remember that this one might be something to 0:01:13.880 --> 0:01:17.120 watch out for down the line too. Sources are telling 0:01:17.240 --> 0:01:19.520 us that Warner Music is close to a deal with 0:01:19.640 --> 0:01:24.080 Netflix to create both documentaries and movies. So I'm guessing, 0:01:24.120 --> 0:01:27.880 you know, dramas based on rock stars and other performers, 0:01:28.200 --> 0:01:30.520 and this would of course be based on the labels 0:01:30.600 --> 0:01:34.679 artists and songs. Warner's CEO was at a Bloomberg conference yesterday. 0:01:34.760 --> 0:01:37.800 Didn't offer a lot of specifics here, but did point 0:01:37.800 --> 0:01:40.959 to the label's catalog of songs from artists who've been 0:01:41.000 --> 0:01:44.759 around for a while Madonna to Fleetwood, Mac and Prince Tom. 0:01:45.080 --> 0:01:47.440 Sounds right up my alley. I'm not going to speak 0:01:47.480 --> 0:01:50.360 for you, Gina, you're much younger. You probably I don't 0:01:50.360 --> 0:01:52.880 know about that. Oh I'm pretty sure about that, all right. 0:01:52.920 --> 0:01:54.600 How about the futures? How are we looking? 0:01:55.440 --> 0:01:55.640 Well? 0:01:55.640 --> 0:01:58.080 Still kind of quiet here this morning. Dow futures are 0:01:58.120 --> 0:02:01.400 down eight s and P futures are flat. Nasdaq futures 0:02:01.400 --> 0:02:05.200 are down fourteen from Bloomberg. Ginas Cervetti on News Radio 0:02:05.280 --> 0:02:07.120 seven hundred WLW. 0:02:10.040 --> 0:02:13.760 See now this is more up the lines of Gary 0:02:13.800 --> 0:02:20.000 Sullivan and me, little Smokey Robinson and the Miracles. Gary Sullivan, 0:02:20.040 --> 0:02:24.359 you're old enough to know Smokey Robinson, right, I am. Absolutely, 0:02:24.680 --> 0:02:27.399 It's good stuff. Danny Gleason picked that just for you. 0:02:27.440 --> 0:02:28.560 Gary oh Man. 0:02:28.639 --> 0:02:32.000 He's great, and he is the producer, of course, of 0:02:32.040 --> 0:02:36.480 your show, which is syndicated to nearly three hundred stations 0:02:37.320 --> 0:02:41.400 around America. I mean, you are a big leaguer, and 0:02:41.440 --> 0:02:45.480 this is a segment where I love feeling dumb because 0:02:46.360 --> 0:02:48.360 you come on with us every Thursday at this time. 0:02:48.440 --> 0:02:50.600 And we talked about different things you can do around 0:02:50.639 --> 0:02:53.800 your house, whether it's in preparation of summer, winter, whatever 0:02:53.800 --> 0:02:56.320 the case may be. But here's one that's a big one. 0:02:56.360 --> 0:02:56.680 Today. 0:02:56.680 --> 0:03:00.440 We're really getting into something that I am fascinated to 0:03:00.480 --> 0:03:04.080 hear you tell us about the holidays. Roughly about six 0:03:04.120 --> 0:03:08.960 weeks away Thanksgiving, and people are thinking about maybe freshening 0:03:09.120 --> 0:03:12.560 up that kitchen. Now, my wife and I had somebody 0:03:12.600 --> 0:03:16.000 come in. We have a beautiful home. We're very blessed 0:03:16.000 --> 0:03:19.200 to have it. The oldest part of our home which 0:03:19.240 --> 0:03:21.919 we've not done something to is the kitchen. It's an 0:03:21.919 --> 0:03:27.240 incredibly efficient, conditioned kitchen. It's a great kitchen, but it's 0:03:27.280 --> 0:03:31.440 an older kitchen, right all right, So you're telling me 0:03:31.600 --> 0:03:33.840 that you can give a kitchen like that maybe a 0:03:33.840 --> 0:03:38.119 little face swift without spending a ton of cash. 0:03:38.200 --> 0:03:40.560 Yeah. I mean, if you want to have a brand 0:03:40.560 --> 0:03:42.760 new looking kitchen for the holidays, you're probably not going 0:03:42.840 --> 0:03:46.400 to make it at this point, and not everybody's budget. 0:03:46.440 --> 0:03:51.400 I was reading some statistics without doing many structural changes 0:03:51.480 --> 0:03:54.880 in a kitchen, that kitchen redo can go between twenty 0:03:54.920 --> 0:03:57.720 and forty thousand dollars. Yeah, you start, you know, an 0:03:57.720 --> 0:04:02.960 older kitchen, less copverared space in pantries maybe, and there's 0:04:03.000 --> 0:04:05.360 a lot more structural changes that need to be made. 0:04:05.360 --> 0:04:07.800 You can be up in the sixty thousand dollars range. 0:04:07.840 --> 0:04:10.440 So what I'm thinking is a lot of people just 0:04:10.480 --> 0:04:11.720 don't have forty you. 0:04:11.800 --> 0:04:14.400 See thousand dollars round and we were in. 0:04:14.320 --> 0:04:16.920 That sixty thousand dollars range, and you know, everybody, it's 0:04:17.000 --> 0:04:18.840 kind of like keeping up with the Joneses a lot 0:04:18.880 --> 0:04:22.600 of time, right, you know, and your cabinets maybe like hours. 0:04:22.640 --> 0:04:24.839 You know, it's a foot foot and a half from 0:04:24.839 --> 0:04:27.200 the ceiling. Now everybody wants the cabinets to go all 0:04:27.240 --> 0:04:28.800 the way to the ceiling. I don't know how they 0:04:28.800 --> 0:04:31.760 get anything out of there. Uh, if the ceiling's high 0:04:31.839 --> 0:04:34.760 en up and they want to do this and do that. Okay, anyway, 0:04:34.920 --> 0:04:36.480 let's start with countertop. 0:04:36.560 --> 0:04:38.280 Yeah, I was gonna say, isn't it all about the 0:04:38.279 --> 0:04:41.719 countertops or the cabinets one of the other. Yeah, yeah, exactly, 0:04:42.080 --> 0:04:44.479 and so one of the things. So this is just 0:04:44.520 --> 0:04:47.280 a spruce up. Maybe we're gonna do a two thousand 0:04:47.360 --> 0:04:50.400 dollars just give it a fresher look. We're not doing 0:04:50.400 --> 0:04:54.520 any structural changes, no traffic flow changes. We're just gonna, 0:04:55.040 --> 0:04:57.200 you know, give it a little more sex openia. So 0:04:57.279 --> 0:04:59.680 we're gonna look at those countertops. Say, I haven't got 0:04:59.720 --> 0:05:02.520 five six thousand dollars to put in granite countertops, so 0:05:02.560 --> 0:05:06.600 what can I do? Well, you don't have to replace them. 0:05:07.160 --> 0:05:12.480 You can actually resurface an old laminate countertop. It's pretty cool. 0:05:12.520 --> 0:05:16.520 So if you got that pink laminate countertop and you go, no, baby, no, 0:05:16.680 --> 0:05:19.320 that's not gonna work, going to hitch it anymore. There's 0:05:19.400 --> 0:05:24.400 a product out there. It's actually very cool. They have products. 0:05:24.440 --> 0:05:28.000 I should say. You can take that laminate countertop. You 0:05:28.000 --> 0:05:30.880 can make it look like marble, you can make it 0:05:30.920 --> 0:05:33.960 look like granite. You don't have to be an artist. 0:05:34.279 --> 0:05:36.880 You can make it look like Corey in. You can 0:05:36.960 --> 0:05:39.360 probably do that over a weekend, Tom and there might 0:05:39.400 --> 0:05:41.600 be uh, you know, an hour here, an hour here, 0:05:41.640 --> 0:05:43.640 an hour here, and then the next day an hour here, 0:05:43.640 --> 0:05:47.080 in an hour and you're done. So you might want 0:05:47.080 --> 0:05:49.400 to check this out. It's really cool. It's it's made 0:05:49.440 --> 0:05:53.080 of stone. It's an acrylic resident and stone that's applied 0:05:53.120 --> 0:05:57.200 with a roller over countertops. No rolling. 0:05:57.520 --> 0:05:58.599 Wow, it's very cool. 0:05:58.640 --> 0:06:01.080 So let me just walk you through the process of it, 0:06:01.120 --> 0:06:03.919 because it really is a game changer. The name of 0:06:03.960 --> 0:06:09.279 the company is Diceh Coatings Daih Coatings, and I found 0:06:09.279 --> 0:06:14.520 this product about twenty years ago and I loved it, 0:06:14.600 --> 0:06:16.520 and now it just keeps growing and growing. So what 0:06:16.560 --> 0:06:18.880 you do is you it comes in a kit. You 0:06:18.960 --> 0:06:21.680 got a sanding sponge, so you scratch up the countertop, 0:06:22.600 --> 0:06:24.960 just lightly give it, you know, just a little bike, 0:06:25.080 --> 0:06:28.599 put on a primer with a roller, and then come 0:06:28.640 --> 0:06:33.200 back with this stone coating. It's amazing. If you can 0:06:33.240 --> 0:06:34.760 put paint on a wall, you can do it to 0:06:34.800 --> 0:06:35.560 your countertop. 0:06:35.640 --> 0:06:35.960 It's that. 0:06:37.360 --> 0:06:39.480 And so you put a coat, you let it dry, 0:06:40.080 --> 0:06:42.320 you come back, you put a second coat, you let 0:06:42.360 --> 0:06:45.640 it dry, take that sanding sponge, scratch it up again 0:06:45.800 --> 0:06:48.000 and there's since there's stone in there, you get a 0:06:48.000 --> 0:06:50.880 little bling all right, so it starts looking pretty cool, 0:06:51.800 --> 0:06:55.000 just like granted, and at that point you're putting on 0:06:55.080 --> 0:06:58.160 a seiler. You might have to seal that once every 0:06:58.240 --> 0:07:00.719 five years. You probably get fifteen years worth a life. 0:07:01.400 --> 0:07:05.320 Propably do that for two three hundred dollars four hundred 0:07:05.320 --> 0:07:08.320 dollars maybe depends on how big the countertop is. But 0:07:08.360 --> 0:07:11.240 what a great way to give those countertops new life. 0:07:11.320 --> 0:07:14.800 Right, no kidding, No, that's great stuff. Okay, now let's 0:07:14.800 --> 0:07:16.920 get to the floor. Yeah, okay, maybe it's a little 0:07:16.920 --> 0:07:19.880 beat up, a little tired, whether it's a wood, maybe 0:07:19.920 --> 0:07:20.640 it's a tile. 0:07:21.040 --> 0:07:21.960 What do you do here? 0:07:22.240 --> 0:07:24.960 Yeah, and even if it's the old asbestos tile, you know, 0:07:25.000 --> 0:07:27.920 and you start talking to people about removing that, you've 0:07:27.960 --> 0:07:31.440 got an expensive project going on. So there's products out 0:07:31.440 --> 0:07:35.400 there now, they've been around maybe fifteen years now, LVT 0:07:35.520 --> 0:07:41.000 and LVP it stands for Luxury vinyl tile and Luxury 0:07:41.280 --> 0:07:44.280 vinyl plank. And then of course we all know about 0:07:44.320 --> 0:07:48.960 the lambined flooring, the pergo if you will, those those 0:07:49.120 --> 0:07:53.239 tiles that I just mentioned can literally go over anything. 0:07:53.360 --> 0:07:55.320 It can go over ceramic, it can go over the 0:07:55.360 --> 0:07:59.040 asbestos tile and encapsulate it. It can go over vinyl, 0:07:59.360 --> 0:08:02.800 so you em and ate all that labor. And man, 0:08:02.840 --> 0:08:04.960 I'll tell you what. The first time I saw LVT 0:08:05.200 --> 0:08:07.960 was probably fifteen years ago. I was standing on it. 0:08:08.040 --> 0:08:11.440 I thought I was standing on wood. No kidding. It's beautiful, 0:08:11.480 --> 0:08:14.520 beautiful stuff, and it's really caught on the last fifteen years. 0:08:14.520 --> 0:08:17.360 It's probably the hottest flooring products out there right now. 0:08:17.400 --> 0:08:22.280 But take and investigate the LVT again. We change the countertops, 0:08:22.640 --> 0:08:25.120 you change the floor and then take a look at 0:08:25.160 --> 0:08:27.400 that old Tiffany lamp over the kitchen table. 0:08:27.600 --> 0:08:30.000 Yeah, you might want to update that a little bit. 0:08:30.000 --> 0:08:32.200 Well, you know, it's not only some lighting fixtures, but 0:08:32.320 --> 0:08:36.720 you can do, you know, sort of change your lighting entirely, 0:08:36.800 --> 0:08:39.319 whether it's in recess lighting, whatever it might be, without 0:08:39.360 --> 0:08:40.760 spending a ton of money. 0:08:40.840 --> 0:08:42.560 And man, what a difference it can make. 0:08:42.840 --> 0:08:45.880 Absolutely, you got that rope lighting, you got that under 0:08:45.920 --> 0:08:48.960 the counter lighting. We had some can lights. I just 0:08:49.080 --> 0:08:52.160 changed all those out where you can actually change the 0:08:52.280 --> 0:08:55.439 Kelvin units, which is the brightness and the color yep. 0:08:55.720 --> 0:08:58.080 And man, you can go from soft white to daylight 0:08:58.160 --> 0:09:02.280 to warm white with and I change them seasonally from summer. 0:09:02.679 --> 0:09:06.040 I don't you know, I don't really want to really bright, 0:09:06.160 --> 0:09:10.040 bright light, so I do a warm white in the 0:09:10.080 --> 0:09:12.640 winter time just to kind of give you a cozy feel. 0:09:13.080 --> 0:09:15.920 But lighting is you can do so many. 0:09:16.640 --> 0:09:20.360 No doubt about it. And then last, but not least, 0:09:21.360 --> 0:09:25.600 painting painting. We just now you know, we decided to go, okay, 0:09:25.640 --> 0:09:27.839 what's something we can dumb this down a little bit 0:09:27.840 --> 0:09:30.360 from a price standpoint, and we painted it. 0:09:30.400 --> 0:09:33.599 And what a difference it makes. Sure sure, in the 0:09:33.720 --> 0:09:35.560 quality of paints. I think we talked about this a 0:09:35.559 --> 0:09:40.080 few weeks ago. You get that swayed look very warm, 0:09:40.240 --> 0:09:43.120 very inviting. I don't care whether you go dark colors 0:09:43.200 --> 0:09:46.360 or you're having a really you know, bright white type 0:09:47.160 --> 0:09:52.760 kitchen area. The textures and the just the tone of 0:09:52.840 --> 0:09:55.160 the paints and maybe a flat is a little bit 0:09:55.679 --> 0:09:59.440 more inviting versus an old semi gloss. And if you 0:09:59.480 --> 0:10:04.760 use those priming paints, now, Tom, you scratch up the 0:10:04.800 --> 0:10:07.920 paint on the wall and wipe it down and you're 0:10:07.960 --> 0:10:10.160 ready to go. Man, no primer. The primer's in the 0:10:10.240 --> 0:10:11.920 paint and it'll do a great job for you. 0:10:12.760 --> 0:10:15.920 The other and I left out one thing that that 0:10:16.040 --> 0:10:18.240 again we have. We didn't change them out, but I 0:10:18.280 --> 0:10:21.120 could certainly see where people might think about changing them out, 0:10:21.200 --> 0:10:23.240 especially if they have a lot of age to them. 0:10:23.280 --> 0:10:25.600 Are blinds if you have them in your kitchen, right. 0:10:26.280 --> 0:10:28.000 Just take a look at some blinds as you go 0:10:28.120 --> 0:10:29.240 visit friends. There are some. 0:10:29.559 --> 0:10:32.840 Ugly ugly you know, there are no doubt about in 0:10:32.920 --> 0:10:34.200 our house. You can start there. 0:10:34.480 --> 0:10:36.920 Yeah, and seriously, I mean, you know, if you got 0:10:36.920 --> 0:10:39.120 a kitchen it's got two three windows in it or 0:10:39.160 --> 0:10:42.400 a door or something, and you got those old mini 0:10:42.440 --> 0:10:44.520 blinds on her, I mean, get rid of them, get 0:10:44.920 --> 0:10:49.040 a nice custom line blind. They're not cheap, but it's 0:10:49.160 --> 0:10:52.959 as important as the flooring. It is as important as 0:10:53.040 --> 0:10:57.960 the redoing the countertops or replacing the countertops. It'll it 0:10:58.080 --> 0:11:02.079 really adds to the wow factor. So those mini blinds 0:11:02.320 --> 0:11:05.400 had dump them. Man, even that cabinet hardware. If you're 0:11:05.440 --> 0:11:08.319 not going to change out the cabinet stom maybe you're 0:11:08.360 --> 0:11:11.360 not gonna paint the cabinet. You can clean them up 0:11:11.400 --> 0:11:14.560 and get that doll look that grime off the surface 0:11:14.840 --> 0:11:18.240 and change the hardware and another it's a big wow factor. 0:11:18.360 --> 0:11:21.400 So I mean, you tie a ribbon around this whole thing, 0:11:21.520 --> 0:11:25.000 and the bottom line is is okay, maybe you can't 0:11:25.040 --> 0:11:27.040 do all of this yourself, may I mean, maybe it 0:11:27.040 --> 0:11:29.040 sounds like a lot of it you can. But if 0:11:29.040 --> 0:11:31.880 you can't, you know, you find somebody handy man, whatever 0:11:31.880 --> 0:11:33.480 it might be, that you pay a few bucks to 0:11:33.520 --> 0:11:36.320 come in. But you're not spending the thirty, the forty, 0:11:36.400 --> 0:11:38.600 the fifty thousand dollars on your kitchen. 0:11:38.640 --> 0:11:40.680 You don't have to, right, and you don't even have 0:11:40.800 --> 0:11:43.320 to do everything that we just talked about. Like I said, 0:11:43.360 --> 0:11:45.640 the first thing most people will see is you said 0:11:45.800 --> 0:11:49.640 cabinets or what countertops? So if you just want to 0:11:49.640 --> 0:11:52.520 spruce it up for the holidays, give it a new look. 0:11:52.960 --> 0:11:54.840 I mean, we're down the six weeks. I find that 0:11:54.880 --> 0:11:57.120 hard to believe. But it's coming like a freight train 0:11:57.559 --> 0:11:59.959 and now's a great time. We got good weather. Tackle 0:12:00.160 --> 0:12:02.320 one of those projects. You don't have to do them all. 0:12:02.440 --> 0:12:04.520 But take a look at the floor of the countertops 0:12:04.520 --> 0:12:05.320 and the cabnet tree. 0:12:05.360 --> 0:12:07.080 Well, let me ask you this before I let you go, 0:12:07.200 --> 0:12:10.880 because I'm just curious in hearing you talk about some 0:12:10.960 --> 0:12:13.320 of the countertops that folks might have. Let's say you 0:12:13.360 --> 0:12:17.440 already have a granite countertop right now. You can't apply 0:12:17.559 --> 0:12:19.560 those kinds of products that you were talking about to 0:12:19.600 --> 0:12:20.960 a granite countertop. 0:12:21.040 --> 0:12:24.280 Can you can plame the wood in for mica. You 0:12:24.400 --> 0:12:27.040 probably could apply it to granted because I know it 0:12:27.080 --> 0:12:30.160 will also stick to concrete, But I don't think you'd 0:12:30.240 --> 0:12:32.920 really want to do that. I will say, though, with 0:12:33.080 --> 0:12:37.120 the holidays coming, if you haven't sealed the grantite countertop 0:12:37.160 --> 0:12:39.960 for a while, just take a tea, spoon a dollup 0:12:40.040 --> 0:12:42.640 of water, pour it on the granite countertop, give it 0:12:42.720 --> 0:12:47.160 forty seconds. If it starts soaking in, seal the granite countertop. 0:12:47.320 --> 0:12:49.040 If it doesn't, don't worry about it. 0:12:49.080 --> 0:12:51.640 Okay, all right, Well this is great stuff because I 0:12:51.679 --> 0:12:53.560 you know, look, this is one of those and at 0:12:53.600 --> 0:12:55.320 the end of the day, Gary, you and I have 0:12:55.360 --> 0:12:58.840 talked about this specific topic many, many times. A lot 0:12:58.880 --> 0:13:01.440 of us are reluctant to think about pouring some money 0:13:01.520 --> 0:13:04.199 into our home. Sure, but for almost all of us, 0:13:04.280 --> 0:13:07.200 it's the largest single investment that you have in your 0:13:07.240 --> 0:13:10.880 in your in your life right and redoing your kitchen 0:13:11.000 --> 0:13:15.120 in some form or fashion. I'm told that that gives 0:13:15.160 --> 0:13:17.079 you the best chance on resale. 0:13:17.480 --> 0:13:20.360 It gives about an eighty five percent return. You know, 0:13:20.400 --> 0:13:21.720 what's a hundred percent return? 0:13:21.920 --> 0:13:22.240 What's that. 0:13:22.480 --> 0:13:25.079 You're gonna die? What a garage door? 0:13:26.200 --> 0:13:27.000 You're kidding me? 0:13:27.320 --> 0:13:30.240 It's a garage door and entry doors return about one 0:13:30.280 --> 0:13:31.199 hundred percent. 0:13:31.440 --> 0:13:35.240 No kidding, Yeah, I would never guess. I wonder why, 0:13:35.320 --> 0:13:36.880 I mean, am I just dumb not understand? 0:13:37.040 --> 0:13:39.760 Well, when you think about it, and especially in track housing, 0:13:40.240 --> 0:13:41.920 a third of the front of your house is the 0:13:41.960 --> 0:13:47.400 garage door. Yeah, and they've got some really sharp we'll 0:13:47.480 --> 0:13:49.760 talk about those sometimes. I mean, they got all glass 0:13:49.800 --> 0:13:52.200 garage stores. I don't know why, abide what one, but 0:13:52.280 --> 0:13:54.680 they got those ones that look like carriage doors, which 0:13:54.720 --> 0:13:57.840 would be great in your neighborhood. So there's there's designs 0:13:57.840 --> 0:14:01.600 in garage doores. And seriously, the insulation quality. 0:14:01.320 --> 0:14:04.040 And your return is outstanding. Don't don't give my wife 0:14:04.080 --> 0:14:06.440 any idea. She's on her way to work right now, Gary, 0:14:06.480 --> 0:14:08.720 and she's listening to this. So thanks a lot. 0:14:09.000 --> 0:14:11.480 Well, I think Tom you could use a little pressure. 0:14:11.720 --> 0:14:14.480 Thanks a lot, year, you're the best man.
