Matt Cross Tap Takeover Episode
Molly Cano is the Tourism Manager for the City of San Luis Obispo, which means she has to communicate constantly about what makes SLO a wonderful — and wonderfully delicious — place. Whether residents realize it or not, the desirability of SLO is closely linked to its success as a tourist destination. The accommodations and food service industry is the third-largest economic driver in the city. Second-largest is retail, which is arguably part of tourism, too. In any case, Molly is responsible for promoting SLO to visitors, ensuring that our city’s most valuable assets like bars and restaurants get lots of visitors. Matt thought Molly would be a good guest because she obviously knows a lot about where to eat in SLO, and he was right.
