5'Oclocktails

In this episode of Cincy 5 o’clock Tales, hosts Molly Wellmann and Abbey Cummins (owner of Everything Cincinnati) sit down with Cincinnati powerhouse Jackie Reau — CEO and co-founder of Game Day Communications. Recorded at The Vault in Mount Lookout, this candid conversation dives into Jackie’s incredible journey of turning an idea scribbled on a bar napkin into one of the city’s most respected communications firms. The trio explores the highs and hurdles of launching a business, the transformative power of entrepreneurship, and how Cincinnati’s deep-rooted culture and community played a pivotal role in Jackie’s success. It’s a story of grit, creativity, and the magic that happens when you bet on yourself — and your city.
