In this episode of the Repertoire podcast, host Justin Khanna shares his excitement about the return of solo episodes. Khanna highlights some of the most popular stories covered in past episodes, including a Twitter thread by startup founder Nick Huber, about the reality of running a profitable restaurant. The thread features a cautionary tale about a chef turned restaurateur who failed after opening a restaurant for selfish reasons and not being prepared to handle the responsibilities of running a business. Khanna gives his take on the lesson of the story, which is that starting a successful business is not about doing what you love, but rather about doing what gives you the best odds of making great money while managing the less fun aspects of the business. The episode also includes topics such as hostility in hospitality, Oreo’s product release strategy, smart ovens, and checklist for fire spots.
