    Ever wonder what really happens behind the scenes at airport bars? Join us this week on Tales from an Airport Bar as we welcome my longtime friend Spencer, an airport restaurant veteran with over 13 years of experience. Spencer shares his unforgettable journey through various airport eateries like Riata Grill, Blue Mesa, and Uno's Pizza. From the grueling morning shifts and the unsympathetic owners to the labyrinthine badge process, Spencer reveals the gritty reality and rollercoaster of emotions that come with the territory. And don't miss the wild story of how a Yelp review almost got him fired—it's a cautionary tale you won't soon forget.

    The episode then takes a hilarious turn as I recount my own whirlwind experiences, including an unexpected promotion that led to my role in opening a new IHOP. This sudden change caused a comedic and contentious exit from my previous job at Cantina. As we reminisce about workplace drama and job transitions, we also highlight the sense of camaraderie found at our beloved local hangout, The Apple. Whether it's bonding over bingo or enjoying good food, The Apple serves as a sanctuary where employees and patrons alike can unwind and create lasting friendships.

    Finally, we explore some of the most outrageous and heartwarming airport stories: a chaotic adventure with a family friend during COVID and the unforgettable saga of a burst bathroom pipe that flooded a lounge and a Starbucks with ankle-deep water. These tales underscore the unpredictability and community spirit that define airport life. As we wrap up, we express our gratitude for your continued support and encourage you to like and follow the show. Remember, "you can't get hung over if you stay drunk!"
