Minibars, fast passes, and VIP lanes—are they life-savers or wallet-drainers? Mike and Blaine pop the lid on convenience services, weighing the time they save against the cash they cost. From ghost kitchens to valet parking, they’ll debate whether paying a premium is genius or just lazy. Is convenience king, or are we crowning a scam? Grab a drink (hopefully not from the mini-bar) and join the lively debate!
