The level of difficulty is slowly intensifying for the BUB crew as they embark on new formats and increasingly longer Roadshow stops from 2021-2023. From overcoming obstacles like staffing shortages and supply chain shortfalls to equipment breakdowns, team injuries and illness, the gnarly bits of taking the bagel show on the road abound.

But, as Amanda and BUB's co-founders discuss, there are community connections and piles of scrumptious bagels, lox and sandwiches to make the trip(s) worthwhile. Episode 8 includes highlights from the likes of Cohoes, NY, Columbus, OH and Cedar Rapids, IA. Each with its own personality and flavor, these locations make the Roadshow an unmatched experience for Bottoms Up Bagels and communities alike.

As always, we're a-learnin' and a-sharin':

Don't let them see you sweat
Do follow through on your promises
Don't try lifting heavy equipment
Do honor peoples' loyalty
Don't use vendors you can't rely on
Do bring a film crew (whenever possible)
Don't eat salad from ______ restaurant in Cedar Rapids, IA
Do calibrate your production to meet demand
Don't underestimate what you've learned
Do be a respectful Away Team
Don't forget you're still the expert - no matter where you go
Do be thankful for the yeses (as much as the noes)
Don't miss out on local color
Do leave them wanting more
