Ever wondered what happens when martial arts meets paintball? This episode dives deep into the unexpected crossover as we welcome Kaleb Plank and his business partner Chris Hulsey, the minds behind Wild World Paintball in Northwest Arkansas. Prepare for a roller coaster ride through Kaleb's entrepreneurial adventures, including convincing an engineering graduate to abandon his career prospects for a martial arts school. Their story of transforming a neglected paintball facility into a thriving business reveals the unexpected challenges of entrepreneurship.The conversation takes fascinating turns as Chris, an avid competitive paintball player, breaks down the different formats of the sport and explains how it has evolved from a recreational activity into a professional endeavor with top players earning up to $180,000 annually. We explore the technology behind the equipment, from basic rental guns to high-end markers costing thousands, and learn how the industry is experiencing a renaissance after nearly collapsing during the 2008 financial crisis.What truly shines through is the passion and camaraderie that paintball fosters. Whether it's corporate team building, tactical training for law enforcement, or competitive tournaments, this sport creates unique bonds between participants. The connection to paintball legend Billy Ceranski (now CEO of Kore Outdoor) adds another layer to this fascinating glimpse into an industry many know little about.Ready to experience the adrenaline rush of paintball? Check out Wild World Paintball in Tontitown, open weekends for regular play and weekdays by appointment for corporate events. Your next adventure might be just a trigger pull away!

On this week's edition of the Flavors of Northwest Arkansas podcast, we head to the legendary Venesian Inn in Tontitown. Before we get into that, wanted to make sure that you all know that we have cameras now and our podcasts are also on YouTube. Just search for the Flavors of Northwest Arkansas once there, and you'll see me and my giant head talking to lovely folks.  Please be sure to live and subscribe, we'd VERY much appreciate it! Well, we're knee-deep into the winter storm... As of now, it doesn't look like we'll get above freezing until Friday, meaning that folks who depend on us to eat and drink at their establishments will be shut down for a few days. Please remember that when you're able to go back out to eat and drink... they'll need our support. In Food News this Week: Casa Magnolia opens in downtown Springdale Slim Chickens celebrated their 22nd birthday, and there's news on what they're doing with their original location The Alamo Drafthouse won't be coming to the Highway 112 Drive-In in Fayetteville afterall The Guisinger has one of the top 30 bartenders in the US. You'll hear from him. A beloved Bentonville food truck is closing The Venesian Inn was opened in 1947 by Germano Gasparotto in Tontitown, and a few years later, he sold it to John and Mary Granata. Several generations down the line, one of their great-grandson's now runs it with his wife. You'll meet Jeff and Melissa Bowen. They took it over right before covid with very little restaurant experience. They'll tell you how they survived that. Also, how hard is it to change the menu of a 78-year-old restaurant? The Bowen's shuddered at that question... Oh, and the Venesian Inn used to be just that, an Inn, and much more. Jeff used to run around in play in it. We'll talk about what's still original to the restaurant AND we'll talk menu, as well some new menu additions. We're at the Venesian Inn in Tontitown, next here on the Flavors of Northwest Arkansas.
