    Episode 2142 - Waterloo Gin: Texas Roots, Global Reach
    Nov 24 2025
    Justin Meigs, CEO of Waterloo Gin, provided an exclusive look into the brand's ambitious national expansion, innovative product strategy, and commitment to its Texas roots, all powered by the backing of spirits icon John Paul DeJoria (Patrón Tequila founder). Waterloo Gin is positioned for massive national growth, targeting entry into 20 states by year-end. Meigs revealed that the strategic expansion is heavily influenced by the Patrón Tequila playbook. The primary lesson from Patrón is scaling distribution without compromising the handcrafted quality and premium positioning of the spirit. The focus remains on maintaining the unique, local essence of the brand even as it expands. Waterloo has successfully carved out a niche with its "New American Style" Gin, specifically the flagship Waterloo No. 9. Botanicals: The unique identity comes from bold, regionally-inspired Texas botanicals, including pecan and lavender. Balance: Meigs emphasizes balancing the recognizable juniper profile (essential for gin classification) with these non-traditional flavors, making it highly approachable and modern—a key strategy for overcoming gin's traditional perceptions in the American market. The Waterloo Barrel-Aged Gin is a crucial strategic tool. Aged for two years in a manner similar to bourbon, it bridges the gap between categories. Crossover Spirit: It is explicitly designed to convert skeptical whiskey enthusiasts into gin drinkers by offering familiar barrel notes and a rich, smooth profile. Bartender Advice: Meigs recommends using the barrel-aged expression as a direct substitution for bourbon in classic cocktails, such as a Gingerbread Old Fashioned or a barrel-aged Negroni, due to its deep complexity. Waterloo's new Prickly Pear & Rose Gin taps directly into the trend for visual appeal and novelty among consumers. Appeal: Its vibrant, naturally rosy-pink color and floral profile are critical for attracting younger, trend-focused consumers seeking aesthetic cocktails and flavor innovation. Strategy: This expression is key to the long-term strategy of flavoring beyond the core products while maintaining natural ingredients. Despite nationwide distribution and a current brand refresh, Texas Authenticity remains core to Waterloo Gin's DNA. Sourcing: The brand ensures its vital sense of place through the use of limestone-filtered spring water and locally inspired botanicals sourced from the Texas Hill Country. Marketing: Packaging and marketing efforts will continue to lean into the rugged, handcrafted, and welcoming spirit of Texas. Waterloo leverages the short holiday buying window with focused direct-to-consumer (DTC) strategies. Engagement: The brand promotes unique seasonal cocktail suggestions—like the Cranberry Gin Fizz—to drive immediate gifting and entertaining sales and create deeper consumer engagement through recipe inspiration. To overcome consumer reservations about gin being "too juniper-forward," the sales team uses two effective talking points: Versatility: Positioning Waterloo as a highly versatile spirit ideal for a wide range of modern and classic cocktails. Smoothness: Highlighting the smooth, approachable, and non-traditional flavor profile driven by the Texas botanicals. Web: https://www.waterloogin.com About Waterloo Gin: Discover Waterloo Gin, a spirit born from the desire to create a gin that is both sophisticated and deeply rooted in its Texas place. Unlike traditional London Dry gins with their sharp, juniper-heavy profile, Waterloo set out to craft a superior New American Style Gin. Defining Our Profile Waterloo Gin offers a unique flavor experience that challenges conventional gin perceptions: Profile: Balanced and floral, yet distinctly structured. Taste: Bold yet exceptionally smooth. Distinction: Achieved through careful distillation and an uncompromising focus on quality. This commitment results in a gin that reflects the effortless beauty of its surroundings, making it a highly approachable and modern spirit.

    Episode 2141 - Hospitality Consulting & Community Giving
    Nov 23 2025
    Sean Palani is a prominent figure in the Atlanta hospitality scene, bridging the worlds of high-level restaurant consulting and community-focused philanthropy. His interview on The Ash Said It Show covers his career trajectory, the launch of his new business ventures, and the growth of his impactful non-profit organization. Sean's path into hospitality is marked by experience with major players, including a tenure with The Giving Kitchen and US Foods. This extensive background ultimately led him to launch Pineapple Hospitality Group (PHG). The company's name reflects the pineapple symbol—a universal sign of hospitality and welcome—which Sean embodies. PHG is a full-service consultancy for restaurant operators, focusing on: Operations & Strategy: Streamlining daily functions and long-term planning. Quality Control: Conducting secret shops and mock health inspections. Concepting: Developing new restaurant and hospitality ideas. Sean’s core philosophy is helping clients solve complex operational challenges by providing expert, hands-on support to ensure their business is not just running, but thriving. Under the PHG umbrella, Sean has launched a unique mobile concept: Sand Bru. This Turkish-inspired coffee cart is the latest project in his Caffeinated Hospitality series. The Concept: Sand Bru utilizes a traditional method where sand is heated to brew coffee, creating a unique and captivating experience. Inspiration: The concept blends ancient tradition with modern mobility, complementing his consulting work by demonstrating an innovative, high-touch approach to customer experience. The Atlanta Guys Dinner Group (AGDG): 84 Events of Giving Sean is the founder and co-leader of the Atlanta Guys Dinner Group (AGDG), a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that has grown into a major community force. Initial Goal: The AGDG was born from the original "Monday Night Dinner Group" in Hawaii. Its goal was simple: provide a diverse group of men a space for fellowship, good conversation, and shared meals while giving back to local charities. Current Status: The group has now celebrated its 84th charity event, consistently raising funds for Atlanta non-profits chosen by its members. This sustained commitment underscores its development into a powerful, mission-driven community. December 10th Holiday Event Details - https://atlantaguysdinnergroup... The AGDG's charitable mission culminates in a significant open-invite holiday event every December. This year, they are teaming up with the Atlanta Ladies Dinner Group for a large toy drive. Attendees can expect a festive atmosphere, great company, and the opportunity to support a chosen local charity, emphasizing the importance of collective giving during the holiday season. Sean's ability to manage consulting, an innovative coffee brand, and a rapidly growing non-profit lies in the synergy between all three lanes: Hospitality Focus: PHG and Sand Bru focus on improving the operator and guest experience. Community Focus: AGDG applies that same spirit of hospitality and service to the community through charity. His motivation is fueled by the success of his clients and the measurable impact of the AGDG's giving. For 2025, Sean looks to expand Sand Bru's presence and continue to grow the charitable reach of the AGDG, potentially through new partnerships and increased event frequency. Discover the inspiring story of The Monday Night Dinner Group, a thriving community tradition founded by Sean Palani in Hawaii. What began as a simple gathering of colleagues seeking a meal on their shared night off has blossomed into a cherished monthly event focused on good food, camaraderie, and local philanthropy.

Now thriving in Georgia, the AGDG carries forward the tradition of good company, great cuisine, and local impact.

    Episode 2140 - Smootheeze Talks Zero-Waste Strategy
    Nov 22 2025
    We recently interviewed Ross from Smootheeze, diving deep into the challenges and triumphs of scaling a sustainable, premium kitchen brand. This conversation reveals the brilliant product strategies and marketing tactics behind the viral smoothie prep system. Ross articulated that the most frequent and frustrating daily barrier for users is the often-messy, time-consuming morning prep itself, beyond just the frozen banana clump. Smootheeze solves this "next" by providing effortless pop-out convenience that removes the friction entirely, making a consistent, healthy morning smoothie routine achievable. The discussion highlights the brand's commitment to its zero-waste, anti-consumption ethos. Ross explained that Lifetime Value (LTV) is sustained not through repeated product purchases, but by building a powerful user-generated recipe ecosystem (UGC). This content strategy keeps the community engaged and locks them into the brand by fostering creative, endless usage. To mitigate the known issue of silicone odor and turmeric stains, Smootheeze focuses heavily on educational contentand specific cleaning protocols to protect the long-term functionality and aesthetic of the trays. Finally, Ross provided strategic insight on the Freezer Real Estate Battle, emphasizing the trays' stackable, space-saving design against bulky frozen meals. Regarding Channel Expansion, the long-term strategy involves leveraging the brand's Kickstarter success to strategically test limited retail expansion while doubling down on DTC/Amazon to maintain critical control over the brand story and community connection.
