In this episode, Leo and Jamie talk about the small business facts. You may be surprised to hear that in the first year 30 out of 100 restaurants will fail and that the national average of profit a restaurant will make is 6.2%. They talk about some more interesting facts about restaurants but most importantly some tips on how you become a business that survives. One of the keys to being a successful restaurant is creating and cultivating great relationships with vendors, staff, the community, and guests.
They also have a fun time chatting about their annual Halloween event, Gialloween! This will be their 5th year doing it and every year they say it gets better! Last year, 95% of the people that came dressed up! It's a lot of fun. Be sure to go if you are local in Atlanta.

Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage
Rewarded for bravery that goes above and beyond the call of duty, the Medal of Honor is the United States’ top military decoration. The stories we tell are about the heroes who have distinguished themselves by acts of heroism and courage that have saved lives. From Judith Resnik, the second woman in space, to Daniel Daly, one of only 19 people to have received the Medal of Honor twice, these are stories about those who have done the improbable and unexpected, who have sacrificed something in the name of something much bigger than themselves. Every Wednesday on Medal of Honor, uncover what their experiences tell us about the nature of sacrifice, why people put their lives in danger for others, and what happens after you’ve become a hero. Special thanks to series creator Dan McGinn, to the Congressional Medal of Honor Society and Adam Plumpton. Medal of Honor begins on May 28.
