The Host Hub
Everything for the person holding the microphone. Ten guides written by hosts, printable score sheets and checklists, and free tools you can run off the bar’s TV. No signup, no upsell — the same deal as the name generator.
The guides
The full playbook: format, rounds, pacing, and the mistakes that empty a bar.
Straight points, wagers, joker rounds — and which one fits your crowd.
The 40/40/20 difficulty rule and question shapes that make every table argue.
Real rate ranges, flat fee vs. bar-spend deals, and how to raise your price.
Mic, speaker, timer, sheets — the minimal kit and what to skip.
Keep the room warm between rounds and settle ties without a groan.
From 3 tables to a waitlist: regulars, streaks, and the bar’s role.
Five formats from name-that-tune to lyric finishes, with rights realities.
Screen-share setups, answer collection, and keeping remote teams honest.
Everything to bring, test, and announce — printable, laminate-friendly.
