In this episode of Wash Talk: The Carwash Podcast, host Kyle Alexander speaks with Mark Thomas, executive vice president of marketing at Way, about how AI-driven carwash memberships are reshaping customer loyalty and retention. Thomas discusses Way's growth from a discovery and payment network into a full marketing and point-of-sale platform, and explains how artificial intelligence helps operators personalize service at every stage of the customer journey.  Thomas breaks down the difference between a subscription and a membership, noting that added benefits such as roadside assistance, gas discounts and glass repair coverage give customers more reasons to stay enrolled between visits. He points to data showing operators using WayPlus benefits have cut churn nearly in half compared with the industry average of about 7.5%. The conversation also covers how automated marketing tools, license plate recognition technology and mass personalization allow attendants to tailor recommendations for every customer.  Looking ahead, Thomas discusses how agentic AI will move beyond simple chat responses to take on marketing, segmentation and operational tasks across the tunnel. He emphasizes that AI-driven carwash memberships work best when built on lightweight integrations rather than replacing an operator's existing technology stack, giving operators flexibility as they scale.

Leora brings the case against her husband, Sam. Sam once brought home a SURPRISE fish tank. Sam and the kids love it, but not Leora! To add insult to injury, Sam brought home two surprise shrimp - ostensibly to clean the tank. Leora wants Sam to talk to her before adding more pets to the home, but Sam says that shrimp aren't pets - they're part of the tank's filtration system! Who's right?

Fresh off our Hot Dog-cket episode last week with Jamie Loftus, we can't stop thinking about HOT DOGS! What better time is there than to bring back one of our favorite episodes of all time: AMICUS BRIEF! Casey files suit against his friend, Sean. They go to baseball games together a lot. Casey says that Sean's antics at the games cause great stress. One of the more appalling antics, says Casey, is the time Sean brought his own hot dogs into the stadium. Sean says that he is well within his rights to do this. Who's right? Who's wrong? In the time since this episode first ran, Casey started a new podcast: Dear Movies, I Love You! Casey and his co-host, Millie De Chirico, cover movie culture in the way one would talk about a crush they never got over. Film history, nuance, and criticism for all film fans!

Building Community Through Gaming: The Story and Strategy Behind Run It Back in Grayslake Welcome to another in-depth feature from the heart of Grayslake! Today, we're diving into the inspiring journey of Run It Back, a gaming lounge and card shop that's quickly becoming a local favorite. Based on a recent episode of the Discovery and Grayslake podcast, we'll break down the main themes, actionable tips, and expert insights shared by founders Bill and Tony. Whether you're a gaming enthusiast, a small business owner, or someone passionate about community spaces, there's a wealth of knowledge here for you. Table of Contents The Power of Local Roots and Friendship Choosing the Right Location: Visibility and Community Creating a Multi-Generational Gaming Space Blending Retro and Modern Gaming Experiences Making Collectible Cards Accessible and Fun Building Community Through Events and Tournaments Flexible Pricing and Memberships for All Partnering with Local Businesses Leveraging Online Platforms for Growth Continuous Improvement and Community Feedback Final Thoughts: The Hometown Advantage 1. The Power of Local Roots and Friendship  Key Insight:   Bill and Tony's story is rooted in long-standing friendship and local ties. Both grew up in the Grayslake area, attended local high schools, and have deep connections to the community. Actionable Advice: Leverage Local Networks:** If you're starting a business, tap into your hometown connections. Familiarity with the area and its people can help you understand community needs and build trust quickly. Build with Friends:** Shared history and trust among founders can make the entrepreneurial journey smoother and more resilient. Expert Tip:   Don't underestimate the value of local goodwill. People love supporting businesses run by "one of their own." 2. Choosing the Right Location: Visibility and Community  Key Insight:   Run It Back's founders prioritized visibility and accessibility when choosing their location. After their first choice fell through, they pivoted quickly, relying on local tips and their own knowledge of the area. Actionable Advice: Scout for High-Visibility Spots:** Look for locations near other popular businesses or community hubs. Foot traffic and easy access are crucial for new ventures. Be Flexible:** If your first choice doesn't work out, stay open to alternatives. Sometimes, the "second best" option turns out to be the perfect fit. Expert Tip:   Ask friends, family, and local business owners for leads on available spaces. Word-of-mouth can uncover hidden gems. 3. Creating a Multi-Generational Gaming Space  Key Insight:   Run It Back is intentionally designed to welcome all ages—from kids to adults, casual players to hardcore gamers. Actionable Advice: Segment Your Hours:** Dedicate early hours to families and kids, and reserve late-night slots for adult gamers. This ensures everyone feels comfortable and catered to. Offer Something for Everyone:** Combine video gaming, card games, and board games to appeal to a broad audience. Expert Tip:   Position your business as a "third space"—not home, not work, but a welcoming community hub. 4. Blending Retro and Modern Gaming Experiences  Key Insight:   The founders are passionate about reviving the social, in-person gaming experience, blending nostalgia with cutting-edge technology. Actionable Advice: Create a Retro Room:** Set up classic consoles (think Atari, Donkey Kong, Mario Party) alongside modern PCs and consoles. This attracts both older gamers and curious younger players. Encourage Social Play:** Design your space to foster face-to-face interaction—couches, shared tables, and group tournaments. Expert Tip:   Host "throwback nights" or themed events to celebrate gaming history and bring generations together. 5. Making Collectible Cards Accessible and Fun  Key Insight:   Run It Back started as a card shop and remains committed to making collecting accessible, especially for kids. Actionable Advice: Combat Scalping:** Keep prices fair and offer free packs or affordable options for young collectors. Diversify Inventory:** Stock popular lines like Pokémon, Magic, and sports cards, but also introduce niche or international games (e.g., Azuki from Japan). Educate New Collectors:** Host "how-to" sessions or beginner nights to help newcomers learn the ropes. Expert Tip:   Use online platforms like Whatnot to reach a broader audience and move high-value inventory, but keep your in-store experience welcoming and inclusive. 6. Building Community Through Events and Tournaments  Key Insight:   Events are at the heart of Run It Back's community-building strategy, from casual tournaments to movie watch parties. Actionable Advice: Host Regular Tournaments:** Use simple, inclusive formats (e.g., names in a hat, double elimination) and keep entry fees low. Offer Prizes:** Even small rewards can boost participation and excitement. Create Social Events:** Movie nights, watch parties, and themed gatherings foster a sense of belonging. Expert Tip:   Encourage friendly competition and sportsmanship. Make sure your staff sets the tone for a welcoming, respectful environment. 7. Flexible Pricing and Memberships for All  Key Insight:   Run It Back offers a range of pricing options to suit different needs and budgets. Actionable Advice: Hourly Rates:** $10/hour for consoles, $12/hour for PCs. Free Board Gaming:** Keep some activities free to lower the barrier to entry. Membership Tiers:** Offer monthly memberships with perks like free hours, discounts, and exclusive access. Event Packages:** Birthday party packages ($299 for two hours) make the space accessible for special occasions. Expert Tip:   Regularly review your pricing to ensure it remains competitive and accessible, especially for families and young gamers. 8. Partnering with Local Businesses  Key Insight:   Collaboration with nearby businesses (like Papa John's for pizza) enhances the customer experience and strengthens community ties. Actionable Advice: Cross-Promote:** Work with local restaurants, shops, and service providers to offer bundled deals or special promotions. Support Each Other:** Refer your customers to neighboring businesses and vice versa. Expert Tip:   Joint events (e.g., pizza and gaming nights) can draw larger crowds and introduce your business to new audiences. 9. Leveraging Online Platforms for Growth  Key Insight:   Run It Back uses platforms like Whatnot, Instagram, Facebook, and Discord to build its brand and connect with customers. Actionable Advice: Sell Online:** Use auction sites to reach collectors beyond your local area. Stay Active on Social Media:** Share updates, event announcements, and behind-the-scenes content to keep your community engaged. Build a Discord Server:** Foster ongoing conversation and community among your most dedicated fans. Expert Tip:   Your website should be more than a digital business card—include inventory updates, event sign-ups, and community resources. 10. Continuous Improvement and Community Feedback  Key Insight:   Bill and Tony are committed to evolving their offerings based on customer feedback and community needs. Actionable Advice: Solicit Feedback:** Regularly ask customers what they'd like to see—new games, events, or amenities. Stay Agile:** Be willing to pivot or expand your offerings as trends and interests shift. Celebrate Milestones:** Mark anniversaries, big tournaments, or community achievements with special events. Expert Tip:   Transparency and responsiveness build loyalty. Let your community know you're listening and adapting. 11. Final Thoughts: The Hometown Advantage  Run It Back's story is a testament to the power of local roots, friendship, and a genuine desire to serve the community. By blending nostalgia with innovation, and prioritizing inclusivity and accessibility, Bill and Tony have created more than just a gaming lounge—they've built a new "third space" for Grayslake. If you're in the area, stop by, say hello, and experience the magic for yourself. And if you're building your own community-focused business, take a page from Run It Back's playbook: stay rooted, stay flexible, and always put people first.

Robert Kaliati has known Caleb Hammer since middle school. They played music together, ended up doing sales at the same company in Austin, and when Caleb left to start a YouTube channel, Robert eventually joined to run the business side. He is now President and COO of Hammer Media, which means he is the one thinking about what happens to 35 staff and 20 contractors if the guy whose name is on the door stops filming.In this episode, Robert is unusually open about the operating side of a creator business. We cover how he handles controversy (mostly by having the difficult conversations with brands and staff months beforehand, then doing nothing on the day), the extensive casting process behind Financial Audit and the guests who used to make it into the chair without being real, and how the membership went from a flopped Patreon to roughly 110,000 members on YouTube, doubled in under a year, with 80% actually watching week over week. He is also clear on the money question most creators avoid: why DollarWise, their budgeting app, deliberately carries almost none of Caleb's branding, and why that restraint is the whole point. Plus his rule that everything ships with an A/B test, how he disagrees with a creator using data rather than opinion, and why the standard advice to hire an editor first is often wrong.A rare look behind a fast-growing creator company from the person whose job is to make it survive without the creator.Topics covered: key man risk · creator and operator partnerships · handling controversy · memberships and subscription revenue · casting and story production · testing and experimentation · when and who to hire first · building products that outlast the creator

What is the best way to ripen a tomato? Jay says that a tomato is best eaten straight off the vine, hot from the sun, with a little salt. His wife, Gina, says that while that sounds lovely, if they let their tomatoes ripen on the vine, the local wildlife will get to them first! She likes to pick them as they start to ripen and finish the process inside a paper bag with a banana. Jay wants her to stop being a premature picker. Gina says a bag-ripened tomato is better than no tomato at all! Who's right? Who's wrong? Thanks to reddit user u/FunnyFilmFan for naming this week's case!

In Part 2 of Tara's conversation with Dr. Lindsey Berkson, they continue the discussion by looking at the different forms and delivery methods of HRT, including Bi-Est, estradiol, estriol and progesterone. They discuss why the way a hormone is delivered can matter, why vaginal progesterone may work differently from oral or topical progesterone, and why individual response matters when choosing a delivery method. The conversation then moves into testosterone and breast health, including the role of hormone metabolites and estrogen receptors. Dr. Berkson also shares her thoughts on mammograms and breast cancer screening, including her own experience of finding breast cancer shortly after receiving a negative mammogram. This episode ultimately comes back to one of the biggest themes of the entire conversation: don't blindly follow a protocol simply because it's considered standard. Understand the evidence, understand the limitations, and make informed decisions with appropriate medical support.   In Part 2: Why Tara switched to an estradiol patch Dr. Berkson's history developing menopause supplements Progesterone, puberty and menstrual health Why hormone education is missing from conventional medical training Why Bi-Est? Bringing estradiol and estriol back into the conversation Testosterone, muscle, brain health and breast health Why progesterone delivery needs to be individualised Oral vs vaginal vs topical progesterone How Dr. Berkson approaches mammograms, ultrasound and other screening methods The breast cancer Dr. Berkson discovered after a negative mammogram Why Dr. Berkson created Everything Breast Cancer and her personal mission to help women navigate breast cancer Dr. Lindsey Berkson Lindsey Berkson, MA, DC, CNS, DACBN was a Distinguished Hormone Scholar at the Center for Bioenvironmental Research (CBR: Tulane/Xavier Universities).

We're creating space for the brains behind the brands we love, and asking good questions along the way. The result is a deep dive into the how and why of brand-building, from blueprints to launch day, customers as community and the detours in between. big lessons, easy listening. In this episode of Read Receipt, Sean sits down with Nico Varano, CEO of SweatHouz, the contrast therapy franchise redefining recovery through private sauna, cold plunge, and vitamin C shower experiences. Nico's path to CEO wasn't conventional. After starting his career in finance and private equity, he discovered SweatHouz while training for a charity boxing match and became the brand's first franchisee. After rapidly scaling his own studios, he was tapped to lead the company as CEO. Today, SweatHouz operates more than 100 locations across 25 states and has become one of the fastest-growing wellness franchises in the country. Nico shares lessons on franchising, customer retention, operational excellence, hospitality, and why the future of recovery isn't about flashy experiences, it's about building habits people return to week after week. Tune in for an inside look at scaling a category-defining wellness brand while balancing leadership, fatherhood, and the pursuit of sustainable growth!   Chapters:  00:00 — Meet Nico Varano Nico shares his background in finance, private equity, and his family's restaurant business. 02:00 — Discovering SweatHouz How training for a charity boxing match led Nico to contrast therapy and ultimately franchise ownership. 03:36 — Becoming the First Franchisee Acquiring and growing the Assembly Row location in Boston. 04:28 — The SweatHouz Business Model Memberships, private suites, margins, and creating a scalable wellness business. 09:55 — Building a Habit, Not an Event The philosophy behind customer retention and long-term wellness behavior. 14:22 — Franchising at Scale How SweatHouz supports franchisees while maintaining brand consistency. 26:55 — What's Next for SweatHouz Loyalty programs, wearable integrations, and the company's future growth plans. 32:55 — Entrepreneurship, Fatherhood, & Leadership Nico reflects on balancing business growth with family life. 35:20 — Final Thoughts The future of recovery, hospitality, and building lasting businesses.   Takeaways: Nico transitioned from private equity to becoming SweatHouz's first franchisee before ultimately stepping into the CEO role. SweatHouz has grown from a single studio in 2019 to more than 100 locations across 25 states. The company focuses on building “a habit, not an event” through recurring wellness routines. Memberships drive nearly half of the company's revenue and are critical to long-term retention. SweatHouz's private suite model differentiates it from many group-based recovery concepts. Strong hospitality and customer experience remain central to the brand's growth strategy. Franchising can accelerate growth when operators are empowered and included in decision-making. Technology, loyalty programs, and habit tracking will play a major role in the company's next chapter. Scaling a business requires balancing operational excellence with maintaining the core customer experience. Entrepreneurship and parenthood both require intentionality, flexibility, and making time for what matters.

Does estrogen really cause breast cancer? It's one of the biggest fears women have when considering HRT, and in this conversation, Dr. Lindsey Berkson takes Tara back to where much of that fear began. They unpack the history of the Women's Health Initiative, how the original messaging around hormones shaped medical practice, and what later analyses of the research have shown. Dr. Berkson explains why she believes estrogen has been misunderstood, including the difference between estrogen's effects on different receptors and why "estrogen-positive" breast cancer does not necessarily mean estrogen caused the cancer. They also discuss research involving women with ER-positive breast cancer who received estrogen and what those studies reported. Dr. Berkson then shares her own breast cancer story and why it ultimately led her to spend decades researching hormones. This is a fascinating conversation about how medical messaging evolves, why women need to understand the details behind the studies, and why Tara believes these are conversations women deserve to have. In Part 1:  The history of the Women's Health Initiative and why it was created What the early research was actually showing about estrogen and breast cancer The controversial press release that changed the conversation around HRT What 20 years of reanalysis of the Women's Health Initiative revealed Oral vs topical vs vaginal estrogen: why delivery method matters Tara's experience with vaginal progesterone and sleep/anxiety The controversy surrounding oral progesterone The debate around estriol What "estrogen-positive" breast cancer actually means The theory behind estrogen and progesterone fueling breast tumors   Dr. Lindsey Berkson Lindsey Berkson, MA, DC, CNS, DACBN was a Distinguished Hormone Scholar at the Center for Bioenvironmental Research (CBR: Tulane/Xavier Universities).

Millennials were truly unsupervised on the internet. In Millennials Online Part 2, Gabby Lamb and Harper-Rose Drummond dive back into the chaotic, embarrassing and completely unhinged world of growing up online before anyone knew what they were doing. We're talking Tumblr, AIM, Omegle, early social media, online friendships, internet crushes, embarrassing teenage internet stories, printing out private conversations, fake identities, questionable decisions, and the absolutely wild things millennials thought were normal on the early internet. And then things take a very special turn into the world of Harry Potter fan fiction. If you grew up with the family computer, AIM, Tumblr, LiveJournal, MySpace, Omegle, fan fiction and the terrifying freedom of being online with absolutely no supervision, this episode is basically a digital time capsule of your childhood. Gabby and Harper-Rose spill the tea on some truly insane millennial internet stories while asking the important question: what the hell were we thinking?

Hormone health has become more confusing than ever. Women are doing everything they can to eat well, exercise, and support their bodies through perimenopause and menopause, yet many still struggle with fatigue, brain fog, stubborn weight changes, inflammation, and symptoms that never seem to improve. So what are we overlooking?In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Lindsey Berkson to explore why hormone health has become more complicated and why looking only at hormone levels may leave important questions unanswered. We get into the broader forces shaping how hormones behave, the reason some women respond differently to the same plan, and what may need to be considered before assuming the answer is simply more testing, more supplements, or a higher dose.Dr. Lindsey Berkson is a nutritionist, functional medicine clinician, hormone researcher, bestselling author of more than 20 books, and a pioneer in women's hormone health. For decades, she has educated both healthcare professionals and patients on bioidentical hormones, endocrine disruption, environmental medicine, and healthy aging, helping reshape the conversation around women's health.What's Discussed02:11 Why hormones act as the body's communication system and influence nearly every tissue in the body16:19 How endocrine-disrupting chemicals can interfere with healthy hormone function19:41 Why hormone changes are becoming more common in younger women31:23 The role water quality and everyday environmental exposures play in hormone health42:10 Dr. Berkson shares her personal breast cancer and hormone replacement journey47:28 Why estrogen became one of the most misunderstood hormones in women's health01:03:01 How to find knowledgeable hormone providers and become a stronger advocate for your own healthIf you have ever wondered why supporting your hormones feels more complicated than it should, this conversation will help you better understand the bigger picture and the practical steps you can take to support your health.Sign up for The Well Drop Newsletter: Check out The Well Drop approved products and brands at amberberger.me/products Find out more about Amber Berger: Website: http://thewelldrop.com  Instagram: @thewelldropFind More From Dr. Lindsey BerksonWebsite: drlindseyberkson.comInstagram: @dlberkson Memberships - www.drlindseyberkson.com/membership Agile Thinking Substack - https://drlindseyberkson.substack.com/ Biotics Products - https://drlindseyberkson.com/bioticsproducts/ Everything Breast Cancer - CME/Professional/Non-Professional EditionsEverything Hormones (CME Course) - https://drlindseyberkson.com/everythinghormones/ Hormones: Vilified to Vindicated (Course) - https://drlindseyberkson.com/v2v/ Oxytocin Medicine - https://drlindseyberkson.com/oxytocinmedicine/ THE WELL DROP

What if breaking the seven figure ceiling has less to do with working harder and more to do with completely changing how your practice grows? Many clinic owners hit a point where more patients, longer hours, and more personal effort simply create more exhaustion. In this episode, Dr. Lauryn sits down with Allison Maslan to explore what actually has to change when your own capacity becomes the bottleneck.They unpack scalable business models that can help practice owners grow without trading more time for money, including building a team of providers, creating recurring revenue, and acquiring other practices. Allison also explains why owners often wait too long to hire support, how to develop employees into strategic thinkers instead of task takers, why creativity matters in scaling, and how mindset and leadership must evolve alongside your business.Key TakeawaysScaling requires leverage, not simply more volume. If your growth plan is based entirely on seeing more patients yourself, your personal capacity eventually becomes the ceiling of the business.Build a team that multiplies the business. Hiring support earlier, empowering employees to think strategically, and developing other providers allows the practice to grow beyond what the owner can personally produce.Look beyond the traditional chiropractic business model. Memberships, recurring revenue, ancillary services, multiple locations, and practice acquisitions can create new paths to growth without requiring the owner to work more hours.Your leadership and mindset must scale too. Breaking through a revenue plateau requires strategic execution, bigger thinking, creativity, delegation, and a willingness to stop controlling every part of the business yourself.Guest BioAllison Maslan is a Wall Street Journal bestselling author, CEO of Pinnacle Global Network, and business scaling mentor who has built ten successful companies over more than four decades. Through Pinnacle Global Network, she works with CEOs and leadership teams to break through growth plateaus and build companies that can thrive without depending entirely on their founders. She is the author of Scale or Fail and creator of the SCALEit Method, which combines strategic planning, leadership, team development, marketing, sales, cash flow, and mindset to help entrepreneurs multiply their growth, impact, and freedom.Learn more about Allison, Pinnacle Global Network, and how to work with her and her team by visiting their website.Follow Allison on InstagramGet your free copy of Scale Or Fail, Allison's best selling book, by visiting here.

If you win "Best Feature" at a film festival, but the festival doesn't give you a trophy, can you make your own trophy? Or is that too cringe? Spouses and filmmakers Kaye and Mariel disagree! Their film THE REBRAND (trailer here) won several film festival awards! But most of the festival organizations did not provide trophies, or any physical representation of the win for that matter. Kaye wants to design and 3-D print her own trophies to commemorate the occasion, and to serve as a reminder that "they like her They really like her!" But, while Mariel is proud of the work they have done and the awards they received, she's also trying to rely less on external validation. Who's right?
