    Sep 16 2025

    It's the start of a whole new season and Bridget and Ryan have a great question from listener, Dena: What is a chain restaurant?

To answer Dena’s question, Bridget and Ryan try their hand at opening their own location of the incredibly popular and beloved chain, the International House of Clams. Together, they’ll learn how the chain restaurant business works and what makes it different from starting a restaurant from scratch.
