Episode Description
What do a successful nightclub, a rare trading card and a poker community have in common? They all depend on attention, experience, scarcityโand the right operator behind the business.
In this special double-feature episode of The Money Mondays, Dan Fleyshman sits down with nightlife veteran JROC and StockX co-founder Josh Luber. JROC breaks down the economics of nightlife, celebrity appearances, lifestyle investments and the experienced operators behind hospitality brands that last. Josh explores collectibles as alternative assets, blind-box products, market-based pricing, major licensing partnerships and his newest venture building a social network for poker.
From VIP tables and viral restaurant experiences to numbered collectibles and blind Dutch auctions, this episode reveals how entrepreneurs turn culture into commerceโand why the team behind the idea is often the most important investment of all.
