Kick off the holiday season with a sprinkle of festive magic and insightful industry discussions! Christine Buhr and Brandon Willey welcome Sherry Howell, Centeredge’s Brand Engagement Director and the IAAPA FEC Committee Chair, to dive into the details of the eagerly awaited FEC Summit 2025 in New Orleans. From networking opportunities to panels led by industry experts and a keynote by Jerry O’Brien, this summit promises to hone leadership and management skills for entertainment professionals. Get ready for a nostalgic trip down memory lane as Christine shares her heartfelt decision to step away from LBX Collective, embracing a thrilling new venture with FS8 and Vora franchises in Canada, paving the way for new beginnings in the fitness realm.

Explore the cutting-edge innovations shaping the arcade and entertainment landscapes. Learn about an engineering student whose miniature version of the classic Pong arcade game might just land her in the Guinness World Records. Discover immersive experiences like the Monopoly Life-Sized: Travel Edition in Denver, while we shine a spotlight on the global expansion of entertainment venues, including new Chuck E. Cheese locations and Topgolf’s latest offerings. We also bring the latest updates from the arcade scene, with insights from the IAAPA expo and highlights of exciting upcoming game releases.

This episode wraps up with a nod to indie arcade games and pioneering marketing strategies. We mention Joe Wagner’s IndieArcadeWave.com, connecting creators and fans alike, while Chuck DeMonte shares insights on leveraging data for effective marketing. From mobile tracking to first-party data strategies, discover how these tools are reshaping the market. As we conclude, Brandon expresses his gratitude to Christine for her enduring presence on the show and send our warmest holiday wishes to all. Stay tuned for the return of The LBX Show on January 5th, featuring the much-anticipated “Chow Time with Dave Wallace.”
