## Resource

In this controversial segment of The Morning X, they start off by celebrating their top-charting podcast success in a totally unexpected international market. Tune in as Barnes, Crash, and LT explore the incredibly divisive topic of tipping etiquette after listening to a viral audio clip of a server who boldly profiles her customers' gratuity habits based purely on their demographics. Discover who absolutely refuses to use a tip to "teach a lesson," and who strongly argues that a gratuity must always be earned. Plus, listen in disbelief as someone drops their highly unusual, special-occasion strategy for guaranteeing top-tier restaurant service.
