Alex Golden and Mike Facci are BACK for MORE Mailbag questions from the BEST fans in the world! 1). Jake Exline — If we run it back and have a healthy Mathurin and production out of Walker, do you think this is a championship contender? If not, what marginal move do you think we can make to get us there? 2). Rooster — Of our young players on rookie deals (Nembhard, Mathurin, Sheppard, Jarace, IJax) rank them in order of most likely to be extended to least. Also, how many players do you think we draft this year? Personally l'd like to see them try to trade 3 seconds to get a little higher. 3). Casey Johnson — To what extent do you feel the Pacers proved this year that playing fast in the playoffs is a winnable strategy? Do you think we will see other teams not worry about the rule of the playoffs slowing down? 4). Gentry Hudson — How do you feel the addition of a Fazoli's to Gainbridge Fieldhouse would enhance fan engagement? 5). Chase Sasin — Do you think tyrese, nembhard, and mathurin can be a good starting 1-3 for the future if mathurin came become a better defender? 6). Adam — Even though Nembhard is under contract, would you give him an extension if he is eligible this offseason? Also do you think Toppin made his case during this postseason that he should be brought back as well? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

To become a transformational CIO, one must have key characteristics, capabilities, and leadership styles that foster followership and inspire others to embrace their vision. This is the belief of Michael Chachula, Chief Information Officer for FAT Brands, who joins us today to shed some light on what it takes to manage the marketing tech stack for 18 different restaurant brands in a total of 2,300 locations, including Fatburger, Johnny Rockets, and Fazoli's. With a background in tech, finance, and hospitality, Michael exemplifies the well-rounded expertise needed to run tech for a multi-brand restaurant portfolio, but it's his focus on inspiring rather than commanding people to follow him that stands out in this interview. He also shares his take on how artificial intelligence is impacting the restaurant industry today and into the future and we discuss how tech providers can become trusted advisors, why industry experience is more important than the latest tools, and so much more! For a down-to-earth conversation with a true visionary leader, don't miss this episode with FAT Brands' CIO Michael Chachula!

Jason Jolkowski, a 19-year-old college student from Omaha, Nebraska, disappeared on June 13, 2001, while on his way to meet a colleague for a ride to work at Fazoli's, an Italian fast-food restaurant. Jason, who had a learning disability related to speech and language, was described as a shy and quiet individual with strong religious beliefs. On the day of his disappearance, Jason agreed to an early shift at Fazoli's, despite his car needing repairs, and arranged to meet a coworker at Benson High School. However, he never made it to the meeting point, and subsequent investigations, including interviews with sex offenders in the area, yielded no leads. Theories surrounding his disappearance range from a hit-and-run accident to abduction by a known acquaintance, with no conclusive evidence pointing to any particular scenario. Jason's family believes he likely met with foul play, and to date, he remains missing.Music:oprahme Background Music by CO.AG Music"Dark Water" by Infractionhttps://bit.ly/3D1KoG1Music promoted by Inaudio: http://bit.ly/3qxoX6UContact us at: weeknightmysteries@gmail.comYou can also follow us on our social media accounts:✔️ Instagram ➤ https://www.instagram.com/weeknightmysteries✔️ Twitter ➤ https://twitter.com/wnmysteries✔️ Facebook ➤ https://www.facebook.com/weeknightmysteries/✔️ Website ➤ https://weeknightmysteries.buzzsprout.com

On June 13, 2001, 19 year old Jason Jolkowski received a call from his boss at Fazoli's, an Italian American chain restaurant, asking if he could come into work early. Jason's car was in the shop, so he planned for his coworker to pick him up instead. They arranged to meet at Benson High School as it was only about a half mile from his house. Somewhere between 11:15 and 11:30 a.m., Jason's coworker called his house to see where he was. Jason never made it to Benson High School, in fact he has never been seen or heard from again. If you have any information regarding the disappearance of Jason Jolkowski please contact the Omaha Police Department at (402) 444-5818 or (402) 444-5690, or you can call the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children at (800) 843-5678.   Click here to join our Patreon.  Click here to get your own Inhuman merch.  Connect with us on Instagram and join our Facebook group.  To submit listener stories or case suggestions, and to see all sources for this episode: https://www.inhumanpodcast.com/

Episode description: Less than two months after former FAT Brands CEO Andy Wiederhorn announced that he was stepping down from his role as head of the company in connection with an ongoing federal investigation, the Fazoli's and Johnny Rockets parent company announced his two successors. Co-CEOs Ken Kuick and Rob Rosen will helm FAT Brands moving forward, while maintaining their respective roles in the company as chief financial officer and executive vice president of capital markets.Meanwhile, Wiederhorn is continuing in his role as chairman of the board. He and his family's company, Fog Cutter Capital, still maintain a controlling interest (55.5%) in FAT Brands, even while they are being investigated by federal authorities on accusations of securities and wire fraud, money laundering, and attempted tax evasion.So, what exactly have the two new CEOs of FAT Brands inherited as they step into their new roles at the company?

Rick Petralia led menu innovation at Fazoli's for many years before moving over to Wichita, Kan.-based Freddy's Frozen Custard & Steakburgers earlier this year, applying his deep culinary experience to a new platform. Burgers and frozen custard are very different from pasta, he admits, but menu development relies on the same principles. Petralia analyzes consumer research, focuses on seasonality and tries to push the envelope on flavor. He's also a TikTok fan, saying there's lots of inspiration out there on social media.

Mitra Jouhari (Big Mouth, Three Busy Debras) joins the 'boys to discuss her love for Dominos and the quality of Wendy's fries before a review of Fazoli's. Plus, a special Italian edition of A Single Item Must Be Banished.

#161. This episode is another flow-of-thought sort of thing, but we discovered an unintentional theme: fatherhood. We hit several stereotypes about ourselves such as finding ugly yet comfortable shoes, not wanting salespeople to hassle us, bourbon, golf, and home maintenance. Speaking of the latter, Dillon is moving his family into a new home! The freedom of spending as much time as he wants on the toilet without others knocking on the door is about to be upon him faster than Kory can decide enough is enough on trying to stay in a fairway. Speaking of toilets, Fazoli's makes a pleasant cameo in this one. It's not great, but it's good enough, fast, and cheap. So pull up your tube socks, cut off your jeans, and pour three fingers of Buffalo Trace. We're here for the dad talk. Then find your way over to the Facebook group or to our voicemails.

Simpson's Writer and Food Critic Bill Oakley returns to the pod with a FULL REPORT after visiting the fast food italian restaurant Fazoli's. Full Episode at www.patreon.com/yeahbutstill

The legendary Bill Oakley (The Simpsons, Mission Hill) joins us to talk about his fast food and fast casual obsession and criticism. To his amazement, we also introduce him to the existence of Fazoli's for the first time. This episode is mostly about food, it's much longer than usual and could have been longer. I don't think either of us realized how many strong opinions we have about fast food. Sign up for our patreon at www.patreon.com/yeahbutstill
