On this episode of The Ric and Dan Show, the boys drag along Marc Guastella, Vice President and General Manager of Hollywood Casino Bangor, and discuss the beauty of failure, travel, cooperation, and never ever never wearing a suit and tie unless absolutely necessary.

As a casino manager, Marc can never enjoy Ocean's Eleven or other series. However, he is a fan of 1995's Casino, a movie he first saw as a child in Cape Town, South Africa. He moved to Las Vegas in 2005 and jumped everywhere around the U.S. until now. He talks about his perspective of Hollywood Bangor as an entertainment business first and foremost... It's a little like Ted Lasso! Dan touches on Zombie Dogz, the new(ish) eatery on the gamefloor, and Marc touches on being dragged to Maine with a dream and a little bit of luck. The boys bring out the Wayback Machine, gush about roulette, craps, and blackjack, and very subtly plug Marc's other podcast venture.

On this episode of The Ric and Dan Show, our hosts welcome Sunshine Gannuccelli, owner of Sunshine Fitness and Fit Fuel Club Cafe, to talk about family, fitness, and fourteen years of entrepreneurship.

Ric and Dan suck in their guts as Sunshine enters. She's a fitness instructor, so they need to look their best. They talk about the joys (and myriad struggles) of parenting, what you gain from it, and what it takes from you. Sunshine recounts the time she needed to pull up her "big girl panties", and then poses a riddle: Why is the sun like a ten-cent coin? Later, they talk about fighting octogenarians, the shift in thinking that changed her outlook on life, and Ric talks about the iPod for a long time. Dan concurs.

On this episode of The Ric and Dan Show, the boys bring along Amber Lambke, CEO and Co-Founder of Maine Grains, to talk about history, healthiness, and the beauty of a past not-yet-lost to us, all wrapped up in a bushel of oats and wheat.

Amber is in jail- in a jail- in a former jail: she needed to turn the old structure into a grain mill from the ground up, because nowhere else had the vertical space she needed to get to work. It started with the Kneading Conference, and from there, she began to recreate the infrastructure to actually clean the grains Maine farmers have been growing. It turns out Maine has a history of grain production that we simply lost to time, and she's here to bring it back. All this gives Ric and Dan enough confidence to offer her a permanent spot on the new Ric and Dan and Amber show! But, alas, her real passion is still in farming and food. The three talk about the culinary history of Maine, the staple of buckwheat ployes, and the difference between soft and hard wheats... and as the conversation continues, it becomes clear: we have so much to gain, thanks to the effort of Maine Grains!
