What I Wear to Work

Tell me about your new show, Gay for Play, on Logo TV. It’s a game show in the tradition of ’70s hits like Match Game and Hollywood Squares, where contestant­s rely on celebritie­s to help them answer pop trivia questions. It has this fun, irreverent, cheeky vibe that’s also a bit of a throwback.

“We’re at $7 billion in revenue, 150,000 employees, and 1,550 restaurant­s. Our culinary innovation is what gets me excited, like our Olive Garden breadstick sandwiches. There are always a couple things coming out at each brand.” “We owned Longhorn Steakhouse, Capital Grille, and Bugaboo Creek Steakhouse. Our primary challenge was how to get control of all these restaurant­s with our brand name on them that franchisee­s owned and operated.”
