It’s another Check-Out Friday — and this week, Bryan and Tyler are kicking back from Scottsdale, Arizona, recording out of the gorgeous NextSpace Studios while reflecting on a wild production week.
From hilarious Reddit hotel reviews (featuring a mysterious “Mountain Lion Club” next door 😅) to Tyler’s missed flight adventure, and a deep dive into whether Outback Steakhouse still holds up — this episode is all about travel chaos, hospitality humor, and the art of not taking yourself too seriously at the end of a long week.
💬 Topics this week:
- The beauty of mobile podcasting setups (shoutout to NextSpace Studios!)
- How Reddit reviews can go off the rails fast
- Why Tyler’s trip to Phoenix didn’t go as planned
- Planning 10 social media shoots in one day (and maybe only hitting 5 😉)
- Our ongoing loyalty to Diet Dr Pepper and Outback’s blooming onion
Whether you’re in hospitality, travel, or just love a good behind-the-scenes laugh, this is your Friday reset button.
