b"James DeMeo returns to the podcast for his second stint (Ep. 505), this time discussing the security surrounding the Rio Olympic games, and some of the ways in which communication become critical in a massive environment. DeMeo talks about his belief of terrorism being a real threat, not just of the international flavor, but also of the local, small-time kind, as he covers some of the national issues facing United States venue management teams. DeMeo presents his consulting options for how to ensure that an NFL game doesn't become a police state, but in turn, makes every part of the venue team feel that they are equally trained and strategically empowered to handle situations that may occur.
