Banks freeze your money. Credit cards take 3 percent. What if there was a better way?
In this episode, I sit down with Bryan Barton from Food Token to talk about how restaurants can start accepting Bitcoin and cryptocurrency with zero hassle. We break down how Food Token converts crypto into gift cards, what it costs (just 10 cents a transaction), and why early adopters will stand out with customers. Bryan also shares the story of how he got “de-banked” 24 times and turned that frustration into a solution for operators.

In this episode of The Pizza King Podcast, we talk about:

  • Why banks fail restaurants
  • How Food Token helps pizzerias accept Bitcoin and crypto with no risk
  • Why crypto could be the next big opportunity for loyalty and marketing
  • The simple steps to get started (all you need is a gift card program)

Food Token is already rolling out in restaurants across the country, and Bryan believes it’s only a matter of time before crypto payments become the norm.

Cardiac Cowboys

Cardiac Cowboys

The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
