doom and gloom about the restaurant industry. Oh, it's going to be terrible. Oh, you know,

we're going to lose 85% of independent. And look, I've said a lot of these things on news shows

myself these past few weeks. But you know what? The doom and gloom is starting to end now.

And there are some statistical things going on in the restaurant industry that are pretty darn

shocking. I don't want to share someone else's thoughts.

I want to create my own original thoughts.

I want to create my own original solutions.

I want to look at situations and come up with my own phrasing, my own words, and do it my way.

This is the John Taffer podcast.

Shut it down. Hello, everybody. I'm John Taffer podcast. Shut it down. Hello everybody.

I'm John Taffer.

Thank you for tuning in, downloading my John Taffer podcast.

And here I am.

Second week, I'm sitting outside of Alpharetta, Georgia in my bus,

working on Taffer's Tavern and Corey, pretty cool stuff, buddy.

Today, you know, we're watching construction. There's about two more weeks of construction left. And I'm out here with my six-person training team. And Corey, you're coming out next week, I believe, right? I am, yeah, I'm excited. So today the floor went down. A lot of the finishes, all finishes went up. So it's so much fun when you create something and it's all on paper and you start to see it materialize and become a three dimensional thing. So it's sort of fun going over there every day too, watching how their construction is coming along. It's a pretty exciting time for Taftar's Tavern. We'll be open in about, we'll give or take three weeks. But we're not doing a big grand opening, Corey. We don't do that. And even years ago, when I used to open all my restaurants, we never really did big grand openings. We always like to open more quietly. You know what I mean? Corey, not slam everybody, not slam the kitchen. So we open a little quietly, let it build over a few weeks, and we think that's a good way to open. But pretty exciting. So I'm sitting here in my bus. I can't wait for tonight's Golden Knights game, Thou Stars game. I'm pretty excited about that. How's it living in the bus? Oh, it's been great in a bus. I've had this particular bus for five years, and I'm in a 43-foot bus. Maybe you can post a picture or two, Corey, of it for people. And it's got, you know, I have a nice master bedroom, a master bath, a half bath up front. And which is my bath. I get the half bath. My wife gets the full bath, of course. but I have a really nice living room and satellite dish. You know, it's interesting.

I have DirecTV.

And DirecTV, It's the full bath, of course. But I have a really nice living room and satellite dish.

You know, it's interesting.

I have DirecTV.

And DirecTV gives you your local channels, Corey, right?

But when you have local channels that are in Las Vegas and you take your tuner with you
