hello everyone hope you're having the most awesome day today welcome to the Film Insight channel in
today's video we're going to list out some more Bar Rescue bars and where they are now so without
further ado let's get right into the content guys the tailgate the tailgate was opened in 2003 after
two siblings named diane and mike miller decided to pull their resources into fulfilling their
dream of owning a bar hiring tons of workers in the form of cousins and godfathers it did nothing
but cause trouble for the bar owners amassing two hundred thousand dollars in debt from their
chaotic behavior and constant bickering they needed the help of Jon Taffer quickly
taffer thought the bar looked a lot like a dmv agency which wasn't very attractive to virtually
anyone who passed by through the cameras it seemed like no one was doing their job slacking off and
ignoring unruly patrons who were clearly too intoxicated health code violations aside that were
practically infinite the clear biggest problem was the staff who weren't taking things seriously
in order to remedy this issue taffer called in his trustable experts to give the tailgate team
what they needed to be good at their job to also correct the toxicity going on between the family
members he forced them to talk things out and give genuine apologies to one another
somehow that worked changing the name from the tailgate to the shot exchange things were
finally going in the right direction following the renovations the outside no longer looked
bland since it was given a vibrant red tint the inside was also painted red and black and given
an aesthetic overhaul at first the changes done were loved especially by the younger locals who
became regulars of the bar for its great music and sports broadcasts however in 2016 the business was
sold since the millers wanted to focus on their growing families which is a respectable way to go
caribe nightclub flying out from the dominican republic juan pablo jp martinez and his wife edith
relocated to san diego california so jp could help out his brother run the caribe nightclub
fast forward three years into the future and jp was given full control of the nightclub breaking
in ninety thousand dollars on a monthly basis however when his mother passed away in 2012 he
was shot into a depressive state which completely distracted him from his managerial duties karibe's
standards went into the garbage with the lack of sanitation being one of its worst downfalls
on top of this rather than act like the owner of a nightclub jb became more of a customer drinking
and partying with patrons he was practically drunk all the time he got so bad to the point
that his lovely wife was threatening to leave him if he didn't clean his act up soon with 300
thousand dollars in debt and his marriage on the rocks jp desperately needed Jon Taffer's guidance
when Taffer arrived he met with edith who revealed that she gave up her medical career to support her
husband but he was so preoccupied with work that he barely gave her attention jb would even go as
far as to flirt with other women taking his ring off to seem single which is incredibly scummy
throughout the episode taffer was extremely vocal to the loser of an owner about how much of a
failure he was as not only a leader but a man his bar was filthy and he was disrespecting his wife
despite how much he's given up for him finally realizing this something sparked in him and things
began to change it was especially noticeable when Taffer performed the stress test on the bar when
a trio of attractive women tried to lure him in to drink with them but he resisted the temptation
and did his job like he should have eventually they renamed it to lalu's ultra in commemoration
of his departed mother the bland interior was drastically improved with new paint and furniture
today the bar is still very much open with a decent 3 stars on yelp most praising the music
choices and events but many complain about the food and service quality
jazz cats psychologist and doctor tamika scott had spent years helping out others making a career
out of it being a licensed psychologist she would preach to her clients how they
should follow their dreams and inspire others however despite this she wasn't following her
own being distracted by her hopeless depression which was fueled by the death of her daughter
it was so bad that she neglected her own health and when she was hospitalized for the second time
she realized she needed to do something with her life opening jazz cats she wanted to create a jazz
club that would somewhat serve as a mass therapy session with a lack of experience she brought
in her parents to help who both had extensive experience with managing and working with people
however being the one responsible for hiring tamika oddly chose to staff people who had
little to no experience this obviously was a problem for the growth of the business which
caused a lot of disagreements between the jazz cat's owner and her mother being three hundred
thousand dollars in debt and losing close to eight thousand dollars every month she needed
the legendary bar rescue host help really quickly pulling into the lot of jazz cats with his experts
they all agreed that the bar had no indication of what it was looking almost as if it were abandoned
during a little stress test one customer orders 15 drinks which makes the only bartender in the place
dre very overwhelmed so overwhelmed that when Taffer sends in a jazz legend like robert hurst as
a spy to see how things are going dre completely ignores him at first when he finally gets to his
order of a martini it takes 10 minutes to make and it turns out tasting horrible aside from this
taffer felt tamika needed to gain some competence as a manager so he sent her off to do some classes
after she came back she was much more confident and seemed to gain a lot of valuable advice
which is when things started to shift renamed to blackbeard piano bar and cocktails and given an
aesthetic overhaul as well as an improved drink menu the bar somehow did poorly upon its reopen
getting two stars on yelp they tried to open a gofundme to support themselves but their goal was
never met and they closed shortly after the hooch 2003 gave birth to the hooch which is a classy
name if i might add thanks to ron and chandra phillips for the longest time chandra dreamed
of having her own bar and when she saw one go up for sale she jumped on the opportunity to buy it
at least in the beginning she was doing an exceptional job getting a total of 20 000
in revenue a month though as a result of the economic crash in 2008 many businesses
either closed down or took a huge hit with the hooch being one of them lacking funds
the businesses quality began to plummet and chandra's business was no longer profitable
in fact she was 350 000 in debt and needed to rely on her husband's paycheck to support the bar
running out of options the bar owner was willing to take any help she can get so she reached out
to john taffer firstly taffer admitted they had the opportunity to make a nice sign for their bar
though instead they chose something big and tacky going inside the establishment the bar rescue host
was appalled by chandra's unprofessional and rude manner speaking to the staff and clients alike
the employees had no uniform code some wearing a tank top and booty shorts while others wore
conservative clothing it was a mess on top of this one of the bartenders would do something called
topless cleaning where she would take her shirt off and proceed to clean the bar
which disgusted one of Taffer's experts lisa marie following a lot of behavioral correcting and some
mixology tutorials the hooch was heading down the path it should be on gaining not only a new
name being called proving ground bar and grill they had an improved drink menu thanks to lisa
marie proving grounds was given a classical car theme with auto decor and fixtures and
the colors completely changed the tacky sign was improved as well however the bar went through some
controversy when chandra was exposed for deleting several negative reviews on their facebook page
she went as far as to find where these people worked and gave them one star reviews
as petty as can be it's no surprise that proving ground closed down in 2016.
murphy's law retiring as an airline pilot gary telfer decided to purchase a bar called murphy's
law with his girlfriend maria obedient back in 2011 using retirement money also receiving
a 25 000 down payment from their friend mark nelson he effectively became the bar's co-owner
officially opening in 2014 80 of the bar was owned by telfer and his girlfriend
while nelson had 20 the bar received some success for a few weeks after its launch however that went
down the drain when telfer and obedient broke up bidian seemingly stuck around the business but
only to leech off of the profits especially since telfer just let her their friend nelson seemed to
be the only one working behind the bar while his business partners just did anything but their job
with their bar on a nosedive telstra's profits were flying straight out the window so he made
a distress call to john Taffer and the bar rescue team from the very beginning Taffer was confused
with the italian flag used in the signage especially considering that it was supposed
to be an irish bar sending in some spies they were all unimpressed with the horrid drinks that nelson
prepared for them since he didn't know how to mix a cocktail properly while he was at least trying
his very best to serve these patrons beating and telfer were just sitting and drinking like usual
on top of this the bar rescue host was horrified to see the exposed wooden walls they had in the
kitchen though Taffer felt the biggest problem was the owner's ex obedient so he convinced telfer to
cut her out completely with some training obedient finally gone and some renovations the bar seemed
like it was going in the right direction being renamed to money bar telfer changed the name back
to murphy's law before the episode even aired and you can already imagine how things ended for them
receiving horrible reviews on yelp some even claiming to have seen bidian back in the bar
