    44. A Miniature Horse Walks into a Bar... (repost)

    No, this is not the start of a joke. Hospitality industry members have been experiencing more situations with customers walking into restaurants and hotels with 'questionable' service animals. Unfortunately, their actions could distract legitimate working dogs and hurt their reputation. We've reposted our Boiled Down podcast episode on the subject for some good reminders on what questions business owners and employees can legally ask. We talk with an employment law attorney who sheds light on the dos and don’ts of service animals in your establishment.

    41. Employee Retention Credit: How to Get the Money You May Be Owed

    Did you know the Employee Retention Credit (ERC) can have a huge impact and potentially result in thousands, even tens of thousands, of dollars back into your business? Eligible businesses qualify for up to $26,000 per employee—but less than 25% of businesses have filed for their ERC funds. We talk about what the ERC is, what steps you need to take, and dispel some myths around who qualifies for this federal tax incentive.  Guest: Mike Rawson, Adesso Capital

    40. Supporting Diversified Energy Systems

    From breweries to hotels, and caterers to small cafes, the hospitality industry depends on natural gas as an energy source. With recent news of natural gas bans around the country and now in Oregon, it’s important for policymakers to understand how a potential ban on natural gas would impact an industry whose reliance on this energy source is critical to their operations. We talk with Dan Kirschner from the NWGA about the policy direction and how they’re fighting on the industry’s behalf to ensure our state and community members can continue to rely on a diversified, robust, reliable and affordable energy system. Businesses should continue to educate customers how they use energy and why, highlighting energy savings with their sustainability practices, and how to use that fuel in better, more efficient ways. Guest: Dan Kirschner, Northwest Gas Association
