On this week's show we track the week’s biggest LBE moves, from cashless tech and trade show stops to a new rewards platform teaser and a community-driven wellness event idea operators can copy. We also debate a Titanic-themed kids slide on the new Hot Mess Express segment, then zoom out on openings, closures, arcade releases, and a no-fluff group sales process that turns outreach into bookings.
