In this episode, we welcome our guests, Jackie Galea, Area Director of Sales & Marketing, and Cheryl Gilliam, Senior Vice President of Brand & Marketing from Archer Hotels. We discuss how to navigate the evolving landscape of the hotel and hospitality industry amid competition from platforms like Airbnb and VRBO, and delve into how distinctive branding strategies, termed "tattoos" versus traditional "brands," set companies apart in this competitive sector. The dialogue also weighs the benefits of large hotel chains against the allure of smaller, unique hotels or collections.
Archer Hotel, a venture of LodgeWorks Partners, L.P., was founded in 2014 and boasts eight boutique properties across major U.S. cities, earning a reputation for pioneering branding in hospitality.

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.
