In this episode, the team dives into an unusual investment opportunity: a long-standing Bingo Hall in Michigan. Mills Snell, Michael Girdley, and Heather Endresen discuss the business model, potential risks, and whether this is a viable acquisition. They explore the regulatory gray areas of bingo operations, compare them to other gambling-adjacent businesses like poker rooms in Texas, and debate the long-term sustainability of the industry as demographics shift.
