What does a potential Hooters bankruptcy say about the industry?

In the latest episode of the Restaurant Business podcast The Week in Restaurants, Executive Editor Lisa Jennings and I discuss the potential bankruptcy of Hooters and what led the brand to this fate, as well as several other companies. 

We also talk about the layoffs at Starbucks, and why the company is doing that, and why culture may be playing a role. Dave’s Hot Chicken is also near a sale to Roark Capital. What are the risks in that deal.

Senior Tech Editor Joe Guszkowski tells us why you should pay heed to what happened to Krispy Kreme last quarter. And he talks about his story about computer vision and what that could mean for restaurants.
