Most operators think growth means adding more. More menu items. More locations. More channels. More promotions. More complexity.Randy Sharpe's approach at Wahlburgers was the opposite.When Randy stepped into the CEO role, the brand had 17 menus across roughly 98 outlets. Some locations were creating more pain than profit. Some models were diluting the brand. The business did not need more complexity. It needed more clarity.In this episode, Randy breaks down the fourth question every operator has to answer: can this restaurant grow without becoming harder to run?We talk about simplifying menus, defining operating models, testing new products, growing catering, investing in better systems, building franchisee buy-in, and using field support to create compliance. Randy also explains why cutting what is not working can be the most important growth decision an operator makes.This is the episode for operators who want to grow revenue without adding chaos.To go deeper, download the free 2026 Restaurant Playbook at joshkopel.com/square_________________________________________________________Today's episode was brought to you by Square.

As artificial intelligence rapidly reshapes industries, many professionals are asking the same urgent question: what happens when AI starts replacing not just repetitive tasks, but the foundational entry-level roles that once launched careers? According to Goldman Sachs Research, AI could expose the equivalent of 300 million jobs globally to automation, while potentially automating tasks that account for 25% of all work hours in the United States—fundamentally reshaping how organizations think about labor, leadership, and growth.So how do professionals future-proof themselves in an AI-driven economy? And what role do human-centered leadership and authentic community-building play in a world increasingly dominated by automation?Welcome to DisruptED. In the first episode of this two-part series, host Ron J. Stefanski sits down with Rick Vanzura, President at GrowthFactor.ai, to explore the intersection of leadership, business transformation, AI adoption, and human connection. Drawing from decades of experience scaling iconic brands like Borders, Panera Bread, Wahlburgers, GameStop, and Freight Farms, Vanzura reflects on the leadership lessons that shaped his career and explains why kindness, judgment, and customer-centered thinking may become even more valuable in the AI era.Key takeaways from the episode…Human judgment will become more valuable as AI becomes more powerful, especially in leadership, customer experience, and strategic decision-making.Building community through authentic value creation—rather than transactional networking—is becoming a competitive advantage for executives and entrepreneurs.AI should augment human capability, not replace it, requiring professionals to combine technological fluency with wisdom, empathy, and discernment.Rick Vanzura is the President of GrowthFactor.ai and a veteran executive with decades of leadership experience across retail, restaurant, technology, and growth-focused businesses. His career includes executive leadership roles at Borders Books & Music, Panera Bread, Wahlburgers, GameStop, and Freight Farms. Known for his expertise in scaling multi-unit operations and building customer-centric growth strategies, Vanzura has become a respected advisor and thought leader in the restaurant and retail industries. He is also the creator of the newsletter Vanzura's Table Talk, where he publishes long-form insights on leadership, business strategy, and emerging trends shaping the future of commerce.

Retail tenant rep broker Tori Nook shares how she built Anchor Retail, closed $1B in deals, and what's driving Ohio's commercial real estate market. The Crexi Podcast connects commercial real estate (CRE) professionals with industry insights built for smart decision-making. In each episode, we explore the latest trends, innovations and opportunities shaping commercial real estate, because we believe knowledge should move at the speed of ambition and every conversation should empower professionals to act with greater clarity and confidence.   Tori Nook has spent 26 years doing the work most brokers don't: driving unfamiliar markets, calling landlords who aren't listed anywhere, and building national rollout programs one relationship at a time. The result is over $1 billion in closed deals and a women-owned brokerage with offices in Cleveland and Columbus serving national credit tenants. In this episode, Tori joins host Shanti Ryle for a wide-ranging conversation covering her unconventional path into retail CRE, what it actually takes to succeed in tenant rep, why she was fired before starting her own firm, and what Ohio's tight retail market looks like from the ground right now. Welcome to The Crexi Podcast Tori Nook's bio and billion-dollar track record Fresh hall of fame news and finding time for life How a sophomore elective led to a CRE career Getting licensed at 19 and cycling through three brokerages The client who was impressed by a 24-hour callback Why tenant rep is not for the unorganized Get in the car: finding off-market deals no database can surface Cold calling into Dollar Tree and AutoZone rollouts Getting fired and launching Anchor Retail in the same breath Opening Columbus and co-founding Anchor Property Management Why Tori finally got on social media (and what it cost her not to sooner) The Houston dinner that turned into a major tenant rep account Why Tori doesn't cold call anymore — and hasn't had to Writing "Intuitive Certainty": business, spirituality, and ignoring the voice The difference between a boundary and fear in disguise Ohio's retail market: leased up, beverages booming, grocers arriving As-is deals, trimmed TI, and how tenants are staying competitive Where restaurants are struggling and why downtown hasn't recovered The Ohio pitch: low cost of living, high disposable income Rapid fire: $50M, bad advice, and a contrarian Midwest take     About Tori Nook: Tori Nook is the Principal and Founder of Anchor Retail, a woman-owned brokerage firm specializing in tenant representation for national retailers and restaurants. With twenty-six years of experience, Tori has closed over $1 billion in deals and built long-term relationships with clients including AutoZone, Academy Sports, Dollar General, Signet Jewelers, PetSmart, Panera Bread, Wahlburgers, Bath & Body Works, Urban Air, Skechers, Sweetgreen, and Lands' End. Tori has been recognized as a Crain's Cleveland Business "Top 40 under 40," Notable Woman in Real Estate, and Notable Leader in Commercial Real Estate in Northeastern Ohio. She was awarded "The Mother of The Bread" by Panera Bread and named the #1 Tenant Rep broker in Columbus, Ohio, by TRADEWIRE Columbus in 2024. In the last few years, she was voted a "Top Woman Influencer" by CREi Summit (2025 & 2026), recognized as the #48 LinkedIn Influencer, and awarded GlobeSt 2025 Woman of Influence in Broker-Tenant Representation. Her book, Intuitive Certainty, releases in late 2026. A graduate of John Carroll University's Boler School of Business, Tori is licensed in Ohio and operates offices in Cleveland and Columbus.

Wahlburgers cleans up the messy parts of growth so quality stays non-negotiable.  I'm in Las Vegas with Randy Sharpe, CEO, President, and board member of Wahlburgers. He breaks down what he changed, what he cut, and how he plans growth without letting the brand drift.

When pandemic restrictions shut down restaurants, paused travel, and compressed social lives, connection didn't disappear; it moved closer to home. Backyards quietly emerged as important social spaces, offering a simple way to be together without screens, schedules, or spectacle. What began as a workaround evolved into a familiar rhythm of shared time. In that shift, outdoor products helped make gathering outdoors practical and repeatable. Against the backdrop of post-pandemic burnout, screen fatigue, and rising anxiety, this reframing continues to shape how we think about connection and the role brands play in supporting it.So what distinguishes the products that surged during lockdown from those that endured once life reopened? How does a company turn something functional into an emotional anchor for connection and belonging—and build a brand that lasts beyond the moment that made it popular?Welcome to DisruptED. In the latest episode, host Ron J Stefanski sits down with Liz Vanzura, Chief Marketing Officer of Solo Brands, for the first episode in a three-part series exploring how Solo Stove transformed a smokeless fire pit into a movement centered on connection, memory-making, and modern brand purpose. This episode traces Liz's unconventional journey from engineering to iconic brand leadership—and unpacks how deep consumer insight, not surface-level data, fuels enduring brand loyalty.The key topics of discussion…How Solo Stove became closely associated with pandemic-era backyard gatherings—and evolved into a symbol of disconnection-to-connection living.Why the most powerful brand insights live beneath the data—and how marketers can uncover the “why” behind consumer behavior.How engineering-led innovation and emotional storytelling can coexist to scale a modern lifestyle brand.Liz Vanzura is a veteran CMO and board member with 25+ years of experience building iconic, high-growth consumer brands across automotive, CPG, retail, hospitality, and DTC. She has led award-winning global marketing and brand transformations at companies including Volkswagen, HUMMER, Cadillac, Wahlburgers, and Boston Beer, earning honors such as Ad Age Marketer of the Year and Automotive News All-Star. Currently CMO of Solo Brands and co-founder of GAI Insights, she is known for combining deep consumer insight, performance marketing, and emerging technologies like generative AI to drive cultural relevance and profitable growth.

Hy-Vee closes a popular Iowa Wahlburgers and Kaj O'Mara from KCRG talks about today's snow storm.

I was excited to interview Rick for The VentureFizz Podcast, as he has a very unique background in terms of scaling great retail and restaurant brands like Borders, Panera Bread, and Wahlburgers, which was a startup at the time when he joined as CEO. Sure in the case of Wahlburgers, it is helpful when the owners are celebrities and you have an A&E reality show to support the company, but regardless… you still need to have the right vision, product, and service… and even more importanlty, you need to have the ability to execute, which is where so many companies fail. Rick is now tackling a new but related industry and that is in the world AgTech as CEO of Freight Farms. It is a company that I have been following and have admired since I first heard about them from their time at MassChallenge and Techstars. It is such a cool concept - hydroponic container farms where can grow food any time and anywhere. Freight Farms recently announced a $17.5M Series B3 round of funding to support the growth of the business. In this episode of our podcast, we cover: * Advice for scaling companies in the food industry. * Rick's professional background throughout his early career including his time as the EVP and Co-COO at Panera Bread. * How he sought out Wahlburgers and became the company's first CEO and helped it grow to a $100M brand, plus details on working with the Wahlberg family and the A&E show. * All the information on Freight Farms in terms of how their container farms work, plus details on the company's business model which includes hardware, software, and services. * And so much more.

To kick off our brand new 2nd Unit series exploring films and properties lost in Development Hell, Joe uses the release of Coheed & Cambria's latest album as an excuse to talk about the lost film adaptation of their long-running sci-fi epic, The Amory Wars. What was supposed to be a major feature produced by Mark Wahlberg turned into a lot of nothing despite a built-in audience. We try to get a grasp on why this project didn't come to fruition by delving into the finer details of the world built by Claudio Sanchez through songs and comics. Joe builds on material from the albums and graphic novels, as well as interviews with Claudio and narrative breakdowns from the sadly-defunct Cobalt & Calcium fan community, while Jack tries his best to follow along and make Star Trek and Grant Morrison jokes to cling to his sanity. Which is impressive, considering he's a time traveler from 1967 whose only musical touchstones are apparently Led Zeppelin and Herb Albert & The Tijuana Brass. Pull up your Ten Speed and man your own jackhammer as we dive head-first into the well and unknowing, and Joe chuckles to himself as Jack tries to figure out what any of that means.

Returning guest Ethan Vestby, a contributor to The Film Stage, joins the pod for a discussion of All Things Wahlberg, including Mark's brand new project, the faith-based comedy/drama Father Stu, based on a true story, co-starring Mel Gibson and directed by Gibson's girlfriend Rosalind Ross in her feature debut. Father Stu is the kind of studio movie we don't see a lot of these days, a personal project aimed at Catholic audiences that Wahlberg partly financed himself along the lines of Mel Gibson's The Passion of the Christ but unlike most entertainment aimed at the religious market, this one is loaded with sleaze and profanity and easily earns its R rating. What does this tell us about the changing world of faith-based entertainment in the new world of the MAGA-influenced religious right and their sudden opposition to “cancel culture”? Plus we talk about Mark Wahlberg's business ventures including the Wahlburgers chain, his HBO reality series Wahl Street, and his prolific partnership with the director Peter Berg. Patrons of the Junk Filter podcast receive at least two additional exclusive episodes a month: some of our notable previous guests include Jared Yates Sexton, David Roth, Bryan Quinby, Sooz Kempner, and Jacob Bacharach.
