About this listen

Front of House 86’d is a no-bullsh*t podcast about the service industry — told by the people who actually live it.


I’m Jay. Career server. Burnt out. Underpaid. Overworked. Still standing.

I’ve been screamed at by guests, tipped in spare change, and cried in the walk-in more times than I’ll admit on mic. If you’ve ever held it together on the floor just to fall apart after close — this show is for you.


Every week, we dive into FOH horror stories, guest rants, listener confessions, and the real mental toll of serving for a living.

Clopens. Brunch hangovers. $200 tabs with $0 tips. Ranch refills at midnight.

No corporate scripts. No fake positivity.

Just the truth behind the smile.

    Welcome to Front of House 86’d.

    This is the pre-shift before the chaos.

    In Episode 0, Jay introduces a raw, honest podcast for burnt out, underpaid, overworked service industry workers.

    We talk burnout, bad guests, worse management, and the mental breakdowns nobody sees.

    No corporate spin.
    No fake positivity.
    No managers allowed.

    If you’ve ever clopened, cried after a double, or smiled through disrespect — you’re home.

    You’ve been 86’d.
    Welcome to the front of house.
