(January 16, 2024 - Hour One)

9:14pm - The 2rd Tuesday bring new guests of many sorts. We lead off the interviews tonight with someone who has been in the BBQ Supply business in Wisconsin for the past 3 years. Mike Luce joins me to talk about why he got into it, what business has been like and what you want to consider if this is something you want to get into.

9:35pm - After Mike, I will be joined by 3rd Tuesday of the month regular guest, Wes Wright, from Cookout News (dot com). Plenty of new items have popped up over the past 4 weeks and we will get all the insight with Wes. Perhaps one of the most important items we will cover tonight is if ALL major grill/BBQ makers should be looking to go to CES first before any other industry/trade convention during the year going forward. CES happened last week, NBBQA happens between 1/31/2024-2/3/2024 (San Antonio) and HPBExpo happens 2/13/2024-2/15/2024 (Nashville). Which one really bring "the heat" for your dollar?
