Athens News Matters: Entrepreneur Bain Mattox on Keeping Buinesses' Doors Closed

Governor Brian Kemp gave the go-ahead for restaurants to reopen their dining rooms this week, but many business owners say it’s too soon and too risky. Chris Shupe talks to one of those entrepreneurs, Bain Mattox, who owns Normal Bar, Automatic Pizza and Buvez.

Chris Shupe was the Program Director of WUGA from 2014-2022. Shupe may be best known as The Athens King, a tribute to Elvis Presley, which often included an 8 piece show band! After two years as a part-time announcer, Chris Shupe joined WUGA full time as the station’s Morning Edition Host and Assistant Operations Director. He was later promoted to PD in 2014.
