Kayla Giovinazzo: Family, Hot Takes, and Life Behind the Scenes

On this episode of The Bro Show, hosts Jamie Giovinazzo and Troy Sears sit down with Jamie’s wife, Kayla Giovinazzo, for a fun, unfiltered conversation full of family stories, relationship moments, and the kind of random debates that make The Bro Show what it is. From dream guests and dream collabs to boardwalk wins, office taste tests, and Jamie somehow hurting himself during an ab check, this episode keeps things light, honest, and hilarious.

Kayla brings her own perspective to the table, calling things out, laughing through the chaos, and giving the audience a real look at the stories that happen behind the scenes. Whether it is Troy trying to look like he belongs at an award dinner, Jamie turning chicken nuggets into an office-wide taste test, or Kayla questioning the whole cowgirl era trend, this episode is packed with moments that feel like a real conversation between family and friends.

Wow. My baby. We surprised everybody with this. This came out of nowhere.

SPEAKER_00

I just I think I have a lot of things to say.

SPEAKER_01

Okay. She's got shit to say today. Wow, is it like drama stuff?

SPEAKER_00

Or just life? I just I haven't caught up with you guys in a while. You haven't been in a while. Why not do it on a public platform?

SPEAKER_01

You might as well give the people what they want. I love that. Let's do it. Okay. I'm excited. I'm super excited.

SPEAKER_02

Well, yeah, the Knicks just won big last night. I mean, dude, that play, I mean, bro, I'm so happy for everybody. I know. What happened to your heart rate tracking the whoop? It went skyrocketed.

SPEAKER_01

Because I actually I don't know because I don't think it when it happened, I didn't know that it really happened because it was unbelievable that it happened. Yeah. And I ran around my house like a fucking maniac, and it was the greatest basketball game I've ever watched in my entire life. It seriously.

SPEAKER_00

You were in zone five.

SPEAKER_01

I hit I think I hit zone four. Five is like ridiculous. Yeah. I don't think I've ever hit zone five on my whoop. Ever.

SPEAKER_00

Well, when Jamie hits zone five, his he's not wearing his.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, I heard about this. Do you take it off uh during sexy time?

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, I do. Take it off? Because you're tracking me, you sick fuck. I'm not letting you watch that.

SPEAKER_01

But what do you think?

SPEAKER_02

I'm gonna text you like, oh, what are you doing? Wow, that was a nice 12 minutes you had there, Jamie.

SPEAKER_01

Jamie had excessive work.

SPEAKER_02

I don't want, listen, bro, I don't want AI fucking critiquing my score either.

SPEAKER_01

Like you're you're making out you're like, hold on, let me take off my whoop. I'm ripping this thing.

SPEAKER_00

I'll literally be like, I can't even get into it, but I'll be like Really? You'll hear the Velcro like Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Like it's game time. All right.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, the whoop the whoop comes off for naughty.

SPEAKER_01

Oh, so it's part of your routine.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, it is. Wow. Yep, it's my ritual.

SPEAKER_01

Oh, wow. I actually leave it on because I'm like You want to know? I want other people to know too much. I got busy last night at uh 9 45.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah. I don't think you do though, because the sleep scores Bro, my sleep score has been affected so bad the last couple days.

SPEAKER_01

My sleep score is bad because I'm up late watching the Knit game. Yeah. That's it's doesn't start till 9 o'clock. I'm I'm usually out cold by 9.05. I didn't watch.

SPEAKER_02

That's we're so fucking tired with the kids. Dude, look, I'll tell you this. This is what I'm the most happy about. This is historic. It is historic. I am so happy for New York. New York desperately needs a fucking win. Like we as like like you know, we're New Jersey people, but like, yo, we're you know, we're we're also I'm not a New Yorker, but I'm a New Yorker. Yeah. That makes sense. And like obviously I'm a Jersey guy, born and raised, to be clear. But like New York's our city, and um it's honestly, bro, it's like the city of the world, and I feel like it's just been demoralized over the years, and man, to just have the Knicks winning, it's like fuck yes.

SPEAKER_01

But the reason why it's so crazy is, you know, so you have you have Giants, you have Jets, you have Mets, you have Yankees, right? So New York is filled with different fans. Everyone is a fucking New York Knicks fan. No one's a Nets fan, right? That's it is what it is. Everyone in the city is uh New Jersey Nets or Brooklyn Nets now. Oh but like everyone is a Knicks fan. So like I said, the city usually split between, like I said, Mets, Yankees, Jets, Giants, and Chris is.

SPEAKER_02

And correct me if I'm wrong, but like I know that the Met and Yankee fans like hate each other. They do. But I don't feel like the Knicks and the Nets fans don't hate each other, right? Like rivalry.

SPEAKER_01

The Nets are not even a team. I forgot about them. Yeah, they're like a high school team. It's ridiculous. Wow, I didn't know that. Supporting characters. And Giants and Jets people, they hate each other. They do. But that's why there's so much love behind this Nick historic run right now because everyone's a Nick fan.

SPEAKER_00

I don't, yeah, and I don't hate, I don't hate anyone, but I do love when like everyone loves something. Yeah. Like I think it's it's so nice. Like we never get it, dude.

SPEAKER_02

We never get this. Like we never get this.

SPEAKER_00

Taylor Swift and Chalamet and the whole circuit. I loved it. That's exciting.

SPEAKER_01

I mean, Jerry Seinfeld was there, Larry David. I you know, though those are my two favorite guys. And they were there cheering at my favorite thing. I was so happy to see them both there. But there are some people that are just becoming fans, I think.

SPEAKER_00

But I think take it, like appreciate it.

SPEAKER_01

Like, let like let's when they lost the other night, and I was talking to a group of people, and they're like, oh yeah, that loss, that was so bad. I didn't sleep all night. Like, you haven't watched the game all season. Now all of a sudden you're hurt from the the one loss. Well, that bothers me a lot because they weren't there. They weren't there year in and year out, losing left and right. So I'm on a different level of a Knicks fan, I feel like.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah. Well, you know what they say.

SPEAKER_00

Okay.

SPEAKER_02

You can you can I think what? You win as a group and you lose alone. Right? That's what happens in business. Well, that's the truth. So it's especially true with sports teams, you know? Okay. You win as a group and you lose alone. Nobody wants to take credit for the loss. Okay. And that's just human nature. That's just who people are. Fine. Especially when you're a winner.

SPEAKER_01

I'll embrace the love. Everyone, you know, go for it. I'll always lose with you, baby.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, no, we don't lose. All we do is win.

SPEAKER_01

When this time, this episode airs, we will be champions. Yes. That's all I want to say. That's so exciting.

SPEAKER_00

And I think let everyone be excited with you. And then next season you start alone by yourself, and then by game. By I don't know.

SPEAKER_01

I'll embrace it.

SPEAKER_00

Taylor Swift is there, and then yeah, everyone else. Taylor Swift.

SPEAKER_01

Get real.

SPEAKER_00

I loved it. I loved it. It was a good thing.

SPEAKER_01

If anything, I prefer Kylie Jenner there. That makes me happy.

SPEAKER_00

I loved it. It was a whole thing. It was like so cool.

SPEAKER_01

But you do have staple Nick fans.

SPEAKER_00

Did you see the meme of like Larry David dropped his wallet? Yeah. Well. They're saying like all the ways Larry David can make the game go wrong. But wait, do you know?

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, but you know the story behind it? No. Oh my god. So Larry David has a TV show, Kirby Enthusiasts. It's been on for 20 years. There was season four or five. He was at a Lakers game. Okay. Okay.

SPEAKER_00

Oh, yes.

SPEAKER_01

And he was sitting courtside and he stuck his foot out, and Shaq tripped over his foot. And everyone in LA was they hated him.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_01

He was walking around, people were throwing things at him. So when he was sitting courtside at the Nick game, they made a joke. If he stuck his foot out, Wemby would trip over him. Yeah. And everyone in New York would love him.

SPEAKER_00

Their marketing team, really. That's a huge miss on their marketing team's part. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

That's what it was. That was the concept. So when he was, and what he wore the other day, look a maroon shirt, he wore that in the episode when he tripped Shakyana.

SPEAKER_02

My my barber had my haircut today and he had curb your enthusiasm on. It was the episode with the spite businesses where like the coffee shop banned them. Yeah. So he put a Larry's latte. Larry's lattes. So he opened up a he opened up a coffee shop and he like started store. He did a spite store and he started selling coffee for like a dollar. Yeah. Okay. And like they're writing like, they're just dropping their price. The guy frames them with like illegal videos. And then they're like, the news is like, well, you know, the spite business has caught on. Yeah. And then like uh Jonah Hill opened up a a deli, a spite deli, because he found hair in his food. And then this other guy is like opening up like spite Sean's exotic birds.

SPEAKER_01

Really, really funny.

SPEAKER_02

It's like he sold me a mute fucking parrot.

SPEAKER_00

That's our family's humor. Yeah. Like we are, we have a I have to say, we have a really good sense of humor.

SPEAKER_01

You do.

SPEAKER_00

We do.

SPEAKER_01

I look forward to the stories because there's always something going on. There's always something going on at your house. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

Every day there's something going on at your house.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

So we just lost uh Kayla.

SPEAKER_00

Wow, we're on like the same wavelength.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, we just lost um Kayla's grandmother. Oh no. Yeah, it was sad. She had um I'm sorry. She had like a couple close calls and then finally, like, she had a bad fall. Most people, right? They get old, they fall, something breaks. It's not so much the break, it's when you're stationary, sitting, your blood clots. Sitting still, right? With the doctors on the show. Sitting is the new smoking. Sitting still is extremely terrible for circulation. Also, like flights or long drives. Like you gotta be aware for your circulation, because poor circulation could create blood clots, pulmonary embolism, stroke, like heart attack, all that shit. Blood clots. Blood clots is a big way to die. She happened to, you know, one of the blood clots got her and she died.

SPEAKER_00

Oh. But it was, you know, it was very much her time, and I think she lived a lovely life. And we all love her so much. Old enough. Okay. But anyway, I bring it up like with my family's humor in mind because um my mom the other night was writing her obituary. And I, you know, thank God have never got to write anybody's obituary before. So I was like, in the newspaper and everything? Yes.

SPEAKER_01

Okay, keep going. I didn't know that was still a thing.

SPEAKER_00

I'm like, like, let me get co-writing credits here. Like, let me get it on this obituary. So my mom and I are collaborating over Nanny's obituary, and Santina is sitting with us, and obviously I told her what had happened, and she took it really well. She was like very funny, you know, she's a funny kid. And as we're writing the obituary, she's sitting with a piece of paper and a pencil, and she's like, Okay, how did she die? And I said, Santina, we already went through this. She's like, No, but what did it look like? I said, Are you about to draw accompanying imagery for the honey, put the pencil down?

SPEAKER_01

She thinks she was it was gonna go in the newspaper next to the obituary, and by the way, here's a drawing of the situation. No way, so innocent for visual purposes.

SPEAKER_00

But I'm like, thank God for these kids in this like it was like a tough moment, but she made it so funny. And I'm like, part of me wanted to like let her draw it, but I was gonna say, did she draw it? No, no, we stopped her. We're like, draw a flower. Like a flower.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

Oh wow. Yeah, kids are funny.

SPEAKER_01

So then did you complete it? You wrote it?

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, we wrote it, and it was like beautiful. But we left out the part Jamie wanted us to put it.

SPEAKER_02

Well, basically, like the comic relief. So I'm like to her mom, Judy, I'm like, Judy, you know, I'm bad with these things. I go, Well, at least, like, you know, she had dementia, so she couldn't remember shit. Okay. But the only thing she could remember was the one time I lost my mind and ruined Easter. Okay.

SPEAKER_01

Was this after my birthday party that time? No, no. Okay. No. Because then I think it might be blame for that. When he had his eyeliner on after after my birthday party, okay.

SPEAKER_02

It might have been like it might have been a year before. Okay. Right. So like I I lost a family member and she had something go wrong with her brain, and one of the signs is like I can't remember somebody's name or memory loss. And there's like there's more this is four years in the making, okay? So I have a long fuse. Okay. So the first year, everybody's bringing their dogs, and I'm like, it's great. To your house. Yeah. Bring the dogs. Okay. I like dogs. But like a normal person. A trained dog. Correct.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

So first year, they're like, I'm I'm trying to feed Charlie steak. Charlie won't eat it. Charlie is your mother's dog. Like a balloon. Okay. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So they're like, they're like, Charlie only eats pepperoni. And I'm like, that's fucking impossible. Like pepperoni. Dude, there's no way a dog is gonna turn down steak, bacon, chicken, anything. Prosciutto. Like, no. Yeah. I go, I go to test this theory. I'm like, this is fucking ridiculous. There's no way Charlie only eats pepperoni. This is fucking insane. Yeah. So you give it steak. Didn't want it. Didn't want anything. Only wanted pepperoni.

unknown

Okay.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, yeah, yeah. So I'm like, now I'm thinking, all right, this little motherfucker's gonna be a problem because what dog in their right mind can dist can distinguish? Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Like, this is steak. I don't want steak.

SPEAKER_02

I want my pepperoni. How insane is this? Yeah. I mean, this is like pretty insane, right? This is like a drug sniffing dog, but an entitled one. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like, fuck you. So I'm like, I'm like, wow. So then um me and Kayla get the house, we're really proud of it. We had this um this fucking fighter I sponsored, and most of the time you f you sponsor these fighters, it never comes back. Well, this time it did. His girlfriend worked at restoration hardware. She hooked us up. We got all of our shit at our house for 50% off. Like, dude, we lit it up. Yeah, we spent a fortune on on four uh restoration hardware, but we got it for 50% off, so we felt good about it.

SPEAKER_03

Now, yeah, yeah, exactly.

SPEAKER_02

But like, dude, our furniture in our house, our light fixtures, we got real nice shit there. Yep, yep, yep. So I'm looking at the dog and it's fucking chewing my restoration hardware table, right? So this is like the first year, and I'm like, you know, motherfucker, right? I'll I'll kill I'll call Keith handyman, he'll file it, it's fine. Yeah, it's not the end of the world. I don't want to like ruin a holiday here. Uh-huh. And then like the dog comes and whatever. They the second time, like, the dog poops, I pick it up. The third time, like, this is like each year's past. Okay. I didn't know this about me, but like, bro, I can't have pisser shit anywhere near.

SPEAKER_00

Can you not say it like that?

SPEAKER_02

It's what it is. I can't have it near me, dude. Listen to me. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

Six and seven-year-olds.

SPEAKER_02

My kids are one thing, bro. Yeah. My son, my daughter, I've been everything. Ped on, barfed on, pooped on, all of it. I'm a dad, right? I'm a real dad.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

But with a dog, animal, strangers, anything, yo, can't do it. Get it away. The dog pooped a few more times. And then after like the fourth year of this dog terrorizing my house, it pooped on the playground. The kids were by it. I'm thinking, in Potego, ringworm, bro. I fucking snap. Like, I don't usually lose my cool, but I did. And then Kayla's like, what did you do? You ruined Easter. I'm like, don't worry about it. She's got dementia. She'll never remember, you know? I had that in my back pocket. Like, bro, she's never gonna remember this. Like, I was wrong, but it's okay. She can't remember, she'll never remember this.

SPEAKER_01

So then she she brings it up, she keeps bringing it up.

SPEAKER_02

The only tangible memory she ever had of me from that point was me freaking out, me not like me getting upset about Charlie pooping, and um, she was like, I'm not welcome that that house, the dog is not welcome, like, I'm not coming without the dog. And I'm like, oh man, like shit.

SPEAKER_00

It was really funny.

SPEAKER_02

It was bad. And then um, and then I felt really bad, so I called it.

SPEAKER_01

Like, had she bring it up because James doesn't want me there with my dog?

SPEAKER_02

I think I'm pressing. I'm really sorry about Charlie, but Charlie did pass also.

SPEAKER_00

And uh he was like, he was Charlie is no longer it's bad.

SPEAKER_02

Hey, but nobody nobody dies of old age on an all-peperoni diet, okay? I'm just gonna put it up there.

SPEAKER_00

Oh, Charlie.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, he he lived a great life and he was always taken care of. And I I was always nice to Charlie. I just that one moment that you saved the family.

SPEAKER_00

I it will never be forgotten.

SPEAKER_02

It will never be forgotten. Yeah, I just uh you know, with kids and everything, I just I didn't want anybody's kid getting shit on them.

SPEAKER_00

I get it.

SPEAKER_02

Okay, yeah, yeah. Sorry.

SPEAKER_00

All right, I think.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, yeah. I'm in I'm an embarrassment.

SPEAKER_00

You know who's also an embarrassment?

SPEAKER_02

Who? You. Oh shit. That was cold.

SPEAKER_00

What the fuck? No, the word the word alone has triggered me.

SPEAKER_02

Wow. What'd I do?

SPEAKER_00

You and your freaking blue check mark.

SPEAKER_02

Oh man, yeah, what's up with that, bro?

SPEAKER_00

I'm so over it. Payla, did you get one?

SPEAKER_02

Everyone paid for one.

SPEAKER_00

Is that private information? Like, should I not have shared?

SPEAKER_01

Because I was upset with myself when that shit came out.

unknown

Right?

SPEAKER_01

It was like, oh, Instagram said, oh, you can pay $15, whatever it is. Yeah. So I bought it. I thought everyone bought it.

SPEAKER_02

Troy, I'll tell you this. Yeah, I think I'm gonna cancel it. So I listen, I don't think you should, but let me tell you why. I got everyone has it. It doesn't matter. I can do anything.

SPEAKER_00

Just the fact that you're paying for it gives me the icks.

SPEAKER_02

I know, and I feel bad. Let me explain. I'll I'm gonna bad that you feel this way.

SPEAKER_00

You don't pay for either.

SPEAKER_02

I don't pay for mine. I got mine and well, because I was on the news and I donated a quarter million dollars.

SPEAKER_01

You got verified, really verified.

SPEAKER_02

I was legitimately in national news a bunch of times.

SPEAKER_00

I'm sorry, I was in Forbes and on TV, briefly. Yeah. No blue check. And I'm not gonna pull it back. But you're not absolutely not pursuing it.

SPEAKER_02

You're not actively pursuing it. We were actively pursuing it for so the reason why you So should I cancel this fucking? No, you shouldn't. Because if your account gets hacked, which it mo most likely will, you actually have representation there. Whereas if you don't, so it's almost like security. Yeah, pretty much. Yeah, I would I would pay it. I got it, so I don't have to pay for it. But at this point now, with like my brand and my name, and like you're the local lender, you have your fucking page. If someone steals your shit, bro, you're without the check, I think you're fucked. I feel like it's a crock of shit. It is, but if if like Pac Egliano's finished basement, bro, they hacked his fucking page. Yeah, he lost all of his photos, all of his grandkids' photos, all of his shit. Wow. So he got hacked and he l and he couldn't get a hold of nobody, and like some fucking guy out in the not nobody.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

So basically, if look, if it's a business expense and it's you know you're not missing 15 bucks. At the end of the day, if someone got a hold of your account, would you go and just build a new one or their photos, like maybe you back it up to a cloud or something? But like you just in reality, if you want if you want to get through the line to fucking Facebook or Instagram, pay. Yeah. But the people that use it to like try to be fake famous or something, like that's that's lame.

SPEAKER_00

All right, so take it back. I don't think anyone would want mine. Like it's it's a strawberry fan page at this point.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, that's really what it is. Yeah, I mean, it could be popular.

SPEAKER_00

I uh take it back. I think I'm not taking it back. I still like to have security. It's so icky. I can't.

SPEAKER_01

It is. When I re when I got the charge, you know, you get random charge from Apple, and I looked at them like, what's $14.99?

SPEAKER_00

Well, app am I paying and I was like, every month you're reminded.

SPEAKER_01

Reminded. You you lose it.

SPEAKER_00

I'm so sick of Instagram anyway. I can't no, I can't say that. I'm not I'm not like sick of Instagram, but I'm sick of like if I didn't have my job, I would not have Instagram.

SPEAKER_01

I I have my job 90% because of the okay, same, same. And we're doing this because of our job, bro. If we didn't need to be on the internet, I wouldn't be fucking doing this. I know. I would love to not be on.

SPEAKER_00

I've just seen too much. I keep thinking too much. You know what is my latest. Can I keep going on the X? I'm not here to complain, but I'm kind of here to complain.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

I like so I was talking to somebody younger than me about this. So like maybe I'm misinformed because I don't have a Facebook, but I have had enough of people on Instagram like going to the story looking for things. Like, why do you think that we're all here to service your business? In search of? In search of. I just did that too. No, you did just do that. You did. Like, seems like someone hates your guts. No, no, literally. Someone put laxatives in your drink. Like to this story, like, who in Monmouth County can remove a wart? Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Like oh a wart?

SPEAKER_00

Go to the go go to Google. Like, why are you actually?

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

Well, like, or like the dumbest shit. Like, who knows of an alteration specialist for finger pants.

SPEAKER_01

I did it because I needed a tequila brand for our golf outing. That's what I did.

SPEAKER_00

So go.

SPEAKER_01

Is that why you wrote back to me and you wrote ill? And I was like, what is she saying ill is? And I wrote back, I was like, I guess she doesn't like tequila.

SPEAKER_02

Could you imagine like, wow.

SPEAKER_00

I feel like I share, I do share a lot of things with the city.

SPEAKER_02

What's really funny is when people open up and they're like, listen, Jamie, I just I don't want to hurt your feelings. And I just laugh. And I'm like, if you ever met my fucking mom, my dad, or my wife, and then open up with, I don't want to hurt your feelings, I just I go, There's nothing you could say to my face or behind my back or try to hurt you.

SPEAKER_00

You can't You don't think that that's lame to just go to the story and expect people to service your needs on glistening? I don't think it's laziness. I don't think people think.

SPEAKER_02

I think people don't think and they're like, fuck it. It's laziness, it's canceling a net. Like what bites bikes.

SPEAKER_00

I also feel like, what is that Courtney Kardashian quote where she's like, I go to lengths to have things that other people don't have. Yeah. Like, I'm yeah, I'm gonna share some things with you, but like, no, I'm not giving you the whole playbook.

SPEAKER_01

You're not giving the blueprint. No way.

SPEAKER_00

Get out of here.

SPEAKER_01

No. But no. Some people don't have yeah, certain people don't have the outreach that we have sometimes. And they need the internet for it. And I'm completely opposite. I give everybody everything.

SPEAKER_00

You do right, but also don't you have the shit. You have a relationship with a robot full blown at this point. Can't you just ask Chat GPT for whatever? Oh, I do.

Like it's a really nice the air fryer is a really nice accessory of the kitchen, so we want to keep it clean. And um, I burnt shout out to our place. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We want to start selling these things at the store too. I think the air fryer would be a good thing to sell at the store. But dude, we got these extra virgin olive oil chicken nuggets, they're just like McDonald's. No way, yeah. Limited release. We cook them low and slow. Oh, dude, they're so good. I had like 20 of them before the show.

Your physical talking about my physical accomplishments? Yes. Yeah. You ran the marathon. Dude, I would track her on the city.

SPEAKER_02

26 miles while she was training for the marathon. I would look at like just because she'd leave me with the kids and I'm hungover and shit, which by the way, I'm trying to stop drinking. She would be like, far, dude. I'm like, holy fuck, she's on foot. Like, yeah.

SPEAKER_00

SPEAKER_00

Excuse me. It was 5'06.

SPEAKER_02

Oh, you did. Oh, I think Robbie Duran was 5'19. I'm sorry. I did beat him.

SPEAKER_00

Get it right. Yeah, she beat she beat Robbie Duran and that's someone who like I look up to, like, on an athletic level. Like, he he is a runner. Yeah. He does, I've seen him do some things.

SPEAKER_02

I look up to Robbie for like not answering people and not giving. That's what I look up to him for. Because I'm like, wow. And his shit is very great.

SPEAKER_00

We'll see him on Saturday at Bro Mountain.

SPEAKER_02

Oh, good.

SPEAKER_00

Wait, but hold on, I'm running. So I don't feel like I've accomplished anything noteworthy yet.

SPEAKER_01

You did a marathon. Are you nuts?

SPEAKER_00

I would like to do an ultra. Like that is my, I feel like that is well, no, I have two like remaining physical goals.

SPEAKER_02

I could do one. I'm heavy.

SPEAKER_00

An ultra is, I believe it's anything over longer than a marathon, over 30 miles, maybe?

SPEAKER_01

Jesus Christ.

SPEAKER_00

No, hear me out. Like once you're going, you're just going, right? So I would like to do an ultra, and I would also like to compete in a rodeo. So those are like my two remaining.

SPEAKER_02

No, no, no, no, no, no. You're not doing a rodeo. What is a rodeo? A rodeo is where you go on a fucking animal that's trying to kick you off.

SPEAKER_00

No, no, no, no, no, no, no. I would barrel racing or that. No, I would never do that. You're not bull riding.

SPEAKER_02

I thought you were gonna do bull. I thought you were gonna do that. That's how they do it in the middle. I don't know with her, dude. Sometimes she says she wants to do something, and I'm like, no.

SPEAKER_01

You should get a mechanical bull for your backyard.

SPEAKER_02

She wanted to be a police officer, and I was like, listen, see that? She would be a great one, but I I'm like, listen, honey, like I can't. I'm sorry. I was like, come work for me. And then that's how we became um unstoppable force. Yeah. But yeah, she was gonna go be a police officer in Philadelphia. She got hired. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

Oh, could you imagine? Oh my god. I can't. Well, not now. So I would like to do an ultra. I think I can do it. So our friend Kieran, the one who we're hosting Bro Mountain with on Saturday, in July is doing the um Badwater Ultra Marathon. It is 130 something miles through Death Valley.

SPEAKER_01

How is that fun? Oh, it's not. I don't know.

SPEAKER_02

That sounds miserable.

SPEAKER_00

That's what kicked it off for him. I think he read David Goggin's book and said, I could do this. There's something so powerful. I feel like just I get it. It's an accomplishment. Right? I get it. If you could do it, so could I.

SPEAKER_01

I did an alpha fit class the other day. That was challenging. Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_00

That was you know, I got my ski at home, dude.

SPEAKER_02

I start doing two minute rounds now. I feel good. My heart rate goes through the fucking roof.

SPEAKER_00

Wait, but did you like it?

SPEAKER_02

No. Yeah, I didn't. I I I liked it. If I could get there, if I could get there, I'd like it a lot.

SPEAKER_01

Let me let me retract. Troy didn't like it. Troy was suffering. I wasn't ready. I was asked to be come to an influencer event. I'm thinking I'm gonna show up there, you know, throw a weight here and take a picture, whatever it is. I come in, it's like, let's fucking go hand your card and the lights turned off. I'm like, what is happening right now? Ashley didn't talk to me for the rest of the night. She was so mad.

SPEAKER_00

She was mad.

SPEAKER_01

Well, because I sold it to him. Like, oh, we're gonna go to this event, we're gonna hang out. And I'm like, she's like, are we gonna be working out? I'm like, no, you're not gonna work out. It's a it's an event.

SPEAKER_02

We're not doing the class. Well, you got you kind of got lied to also. Yeah, I did that.

SPEAKER_00

No, I I think I just didn't specify at all.

SPEAKER_02

We could tell him we're sorry tonight at dinner. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, we'll tell her we're sorry.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, it was bad.

SPEAKER_01

I wasn't listening if I did that twice a week, I'd be ripped. Yeah. Ripped. I love that. Because I it was an interesting workout. I did enjoy I just it is good. It's a lot of a lot of screaming, a lot of things. I don't like that. Very calm. You like the golf course at First.

SPEAKER_00

But I like that it's dark in there.

SPEAKER_01

I do like that it's dark.

SPEAKER_00

So you are suffering. You are in your own little hellhole and no one no one knows. The lights are off, they can't see you.

SPEAKER_02

But the only thing about those Yeah, maybe I could turn the lights off in the basement and just blast the music. You could.

SPEAKER_00

Oh my god, I did not know what you were gonna say.

SPEAKER_01

That could have gone either way. Yeah, that's true. I tend to stop.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, our anniversary, our anniversary. We've been married for over ten years, but we celebrate the the June sixth anniversary. I didn't have money for a ring, and uh I didn't have money for a wedding or a vacation or honeymoon or any of that. So we got married with uh key rings, and that was the ring we used. I still have them. Yeah, I know. Beautiful. And she doesn't save anything, by the way. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

What do you mean?

SPEAKER_02

No, like you know, you're not like uh a hoarder.

SPEAKER_00

I'm not I don't find a lot of sentimental value in stuff. Okay.

SPEAKER_01

I have a box with every card I give Nashley, and she's given me.

SPEAKER_00

That's why I do have uh our cards saved.

SPEAKER_01

Every single card. We have this gigantic box that's every single card. And every card, I always write the date at the top right. So whatever, if it's Valentine's Day 2018, it's always, you know, 214. It's every single card we ever gave each other.

SPEAKER_00

So but it gets really rough though once there are kids involved, because like you don't know what to save and what not to save. And then it's always like the thing you don't save. They're like, Where's the popsicle stick man? And you're like, like that you just picture him like at the bottom of the trash, like what's awful.

SPEAKER_02

Let me explain Troy. We have some events coming at our house, right? So we're doing the Bro Mountain event, and then I'm having some people over for my birthday. I'm turning 40.

SPEAKER_01

Yep.

SPEAKER_02

And I'm looking at my yard, and it's actually looking really nice. Bauman is doing a great job, but like all of our flowers are clipped because my daughter loves flowers, right? Yeah. So I always grew up like don't pick the flowers. Don't pick the flowers. Always told don't pick the flowers. But I'm like, bro, in another couple years, like she's not gonna give a fuck about these flowers, and like the flowers and the plants will still be here. Yeah. Let her pick the flowers. Yeah. And and that's like the thing about like what to save, what not to save. Why not?

SPEAKER_01

Tina wax all the flowers and bro, let Tina do whatever the hell she wants. It's pretty funny.

SPEAKER_02

Like this morning, she's like, we almost missed the bus because she's got like two roses and purple shit in her hand. She's like, Yeah, and you know, we run around after dinner in the spring, she calls them daffodidles, and like, bro, she'll mow down everyone's shit. And I'm kind of like, man, I don't want to get caught. I don't know if the neighbors are cool with my game, but I'm like, dude, either Tina's gonna pick it or the deer are gonna eat them. Like and then and in two weeks are gonna be gone. So fuck it, Tina. Go nuts. Like, pick them all, like go nuts.

SPEAKER_00

But also, like, she's very spoiled because what six-year-old child gets a bouquet from Shop Find Flowers? Like, God bless her future boyfriends.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_00

Good, she's totally spoiled. She can be spoiled. Let her be spoiled. Well, like the flo the the what do you the other day? There were there were orchids in that arrangement. I said for this expensive.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, I was I was doing like real estate shopping, trying to find like new locations for you, Clean Bro. And um, yeah, I was right by Shop Find Flowers. So I was like, shit, I'll stop in, see Michelle. And yeah, I was like, what do you got? I'm like, I don't know, 50 bucks or something. Dude, they got like real nice shit. So they threw me something together for 50 bucks and I brought it home to Tina and made her fucking day.

SPEAKER_00

But Shop Find Flowers, honestly, like they're exceptional.

SPEAKER_02

Their stuff is beautiful.

SPEAKER_00

Exceptional. Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

We got a good network of people, dude. We got Alexa with the uh with with the with the in-house plants. We got Michelle from Shop Find Flowers.

SPEAKER_00

Um also like all of these people are such winners.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

What do you mean?

SPEAKER_02

We've been removing losers from our life pretty good.

SPEAKER_00

No, not like that, but like they're really good at what they do.

SPEAKER_02

Okay. And they're obsessed with it, like me with food. Obsessed.

SPEAKER_00

And like, yeah, but that you want that. That's what you want. Finding those people, like no matter what it is that they do, like they are the master of it, and like I want you near me. Like, I want to know everything you have to do.

SPEAKER_01

That's what gravity is. And it's like someone has a passion for something.

SPEAKER_00

Yes, and it's like all different kinds of people. Like, look like I think of one person 10 years younger than me. I want to know everything you know about this. Like, teach me everything.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, like Robbie Duran. He's obsessed with the coffee and espresso beans. Like, he's a psychopath nut for what he does. It's funny. Yeah, he's really crazy about the coffee beans. I mean, but you know, that's what you want, you know, and it shines, and that's that's those are the people you spend your money with.

SPEAKER_00

There's just so many businesses opening. And I had a breakdown about this to you the other day. Total Menti B. Like I had I went off the rails.

SPEAKER_02

Mental break. A menti b. It's meant to be.

SPEAKER_00

Actually, I'm in the I'm in the middle of one right now, but you wouldn't even know. I did not. I agreed to film this show. I was in a really good mood today. It's honestly like not great.

SPEAKER_01

Okay, MTB.

SPEAKER_00

But um if you're gonna open a business, if you're gonna start a business, you're gonna first of all, I need you to be doing something that nobody else is doing.

SPEAKER_02

That helps a lot. Okay. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

And if you're not, yeah, then you better be the fucking best at it.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. Yeah. Don't copy someone and be mediocre about it. You can't just open your doors. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

Like the amount of people just opening their doors and starting an Instagram, like Yes.

SPEAKER_01

That does that doesn't do it. What's going on here? What happens?

SPEAKER_00

Let's go.

SPEAKER_02

I agree.

SPEAKER_00

I'm a nightmare.

SPEAKER_02

Well, what happens is Kayla and I, what happens? We our very good friend Rob Giuliani started Pliables Founder, had an incredible career, big exit. Everybody and his mother asked him for money, right? Pitching them, pitching them, pitching them. Where does Rob go? Goes to Jamie and Kayla on the group chat. What do you think of this? Yep. And it's like, so we're a little bit more um He's one of the smartest people I've ever met, though. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And he's great because he he like we all, me and Rob are real founders and we're real entrepreneurs. We're like, we really set out and blaze our own trail. And a lot of people are like, well, how do we all how do we offload this and have Cisco make it for us? Or how do we do this and have this person make it for us? How do we piggyback? The second I hear the word piggyback, yeah, I'm like, dude, you're a leech, you don't fucking have what it takes, and you you're not you're gonna fail. Like, I'm sorry, like you're not gonna make it. Like, please, like, I'm done talking. Let's drink or do something, but I'm done talking to you about business. Like, when I hear the word piggyback, I'm like, this dude is a coward. I just know right off the bat, I don't want to.

SPEAKER_01

Or just no passion, like you talk about it.

SPEAKER_00

I want you to give me a piggyback.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, yeah, yeah. I will.

SPEAKER_00

It's really hard for tall girls to like do some fun stuff like that. Like, even like sitting on his lap, it's like stacking folding chairs.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, like we're just well, she's so fucking lean now, her bone goes into my pocket. Yeah, yeah. So yeah, I think like what back to the chair, I'm on a chair. Well, like back to starting businesses, right? Like we've had so many little nerds bite at our ankles over the years, and it's like, look, man, like it goes back to you look, how many times have you hit a pothole in your life, right? People would be like, oh, millions. And it's like, okay, you see a eClean Bro billboard and now you're doing prepared food, right? Like, why don't you think about maybe starting a paving company to fill that pothole? Or like it's just weird, like what she's saying. And I think another thing that's what put a bad taste in her mouth was like she started Luna Balloon and her sister and everything, and then like it just got inundated with balloons overnight. And yeah, it was like, damn.

SPEAKER_00

Uh and let me stop you though. It's a good example of anyone can blow up a balloon arch.

SPEAKER_02

Yep.

SPEAKER_00

Yes. But can you do it as good as Chloe can? Nope.

SPEAKER_02

Nope.

SPEAKER_00

Do you have the same customer service she has? Nope. Do do you have the exceptional like vision and design? No.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. You don't. That's what's different.

SPEAKER_00

But that's a tough business. Because not only do you have to think that is cool, but you also have to be willing to spend money. Yeah. Right? Like, so you have to really have an appreciation for decorating your party. I mean, we're not going to be able to do that. And it's not cheap.

SPEAKER_01

You know, it's a very expensive part of a party. It's amazing.

SPEAKER_00

I can't even tell you how many people post-party or post whatever have said to her, like, oh my gosh, like I didn't realize what went into this. Or how many people will decline and say see the proposal and say no, thank you, and then weeks later be like, I made a mistake. Really? Yeah. Oh yeah. Like their fingers are bleeding. No shit.

SPEAKER_01

Because they try to do it, try to do it themselves. Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_00

It's a cool business. And she's like really, she's a creative.

SPEAKER_01

It's an interesting business. It's a business not going to be replaced by AI. I look at it.

SPEAKER_00

I will not be replaced by AI.

SPEAKER_02

No, yeah. I think starting a business, like you really gotta, you really have to come to terms with the fact that it's gonna be hard. You're gonna want to quit. You're gonna want to scream.

SPEAKER_00

And you are running with scissors.

SPEAKER_02

Nonstop. And you really like you run with scissors? It's um or is that like a metaphor? It's a metaphor. Life feels really scary, really dangerous. And you know, I see like the Cody Sanchez and the Alex Ramosy, or even like Gary V, and I love those pages. And they're built to motivate you and encourage you. But be being an entrepreneur should come with a warning sign. Like you could fuck your life up forever. Yeah. Like you could go into life-ruining debt, you can go bankrupt, you could fucking lose everything.

SPEAKER_00

I actually I have to respectfully uh disagree with you on that.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

But I don't think uh any amount of of external motivation can make those people win.

SPEAKER_02

They sign up for you. If your motivation does not win, honey, I'm saying to score.

SPEAKER_00

If your motivation does not come from within, you already lost.

SPEAKER_01

Well, what's going on new in your life? What's going on, you know, it's halfway through the summer.

SPEAKER_00

Bro Mountain is on Saturday.

SPEAKER_01

Okay. Oh, yeah. So you have Bro Mount on Saturday, and I will be there.

SPEAKER_00

You will be there? Yeah. I was really hoping you would be there. Okay. I didn't want to push the issue after the yes. Okay.

SPEAKER_01

So this is how many years, Bro Mountain? Three. Three years. Yeah.

unknown

Wow.

SPEAKER_01

So tell me like what I'm expecting when I'm showing up there.

SPEAKER_00

Um tell me. I know where I need to park.

SPEAKER_01

I read the directions in a park down the block. Follow the signs. So I'm following the signs. I know.

SPEAKER_00

We try to be respectful. We try to be respectful of the neighborhood.

SPEAKER_01

Because it's it's your house.

SPEAKER_00

So like so, like, all of our neighbors get a letter in the mail. Just like, you know, yeah. Like not asking for information. But it's one once a year we're doing something. But we invite them all. Like, please come bring your kids. Um, this is the cause that it's for. Like, we really try to like we have cool neighbors. I like our neighborhood. It's awesome.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, there's a lot of you know, Brooklyn transplants that have the big holiday parties here. You know, when you got family in Brooklyn, they come to Jersey, they're in the they call it, what do they call it, the country when they come here? Yeah, yeah, yeah. How many times Brooklyn people are like, Yeah, I'm in the country.

SPEAKER_00

We are in the country.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, okay.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, we are going back to the country though. Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_02

We're going to Montana to the 4th of July. Rob's uh house in the country. Cowgirl Dreams.

SPEAKER_00

Yep. That is gonna be so excited.

SPEAKER_02

It's really cool.

SPEAKER_01

So that's awesome.

SPEAKER_00

But Saturday, honestly, it is the best day and it's so much fun. So unfortunately, uh the measurements don't really add up, and it's a little bit more than a 5k, but we don't tell everyone that until they get there on the start line because I don't know.

SPEAKER_01

Do I have to run? No, absolutely not.

SPEAKER_00

You can walk, you can walk, you can run, you can not do anything at all. We have a bound test for the kids, we have a craft, we have a special guest from children's Nikos is coming this year. I already told Giorgio, please, like no pushing Nikos' wheelchair. Giorgio and Nikos, I swear to you, it could be like an episode of Jackass, like the two of them together. Yeah, they really like each other. It's funny. Um but the community on this day, like the vibe, the feeling that there is no other event that gives me this feeling. Oh, wow. And it's really nice. There's 70 kids this year.

SPEAKER_02

The kids love it, dude. They go fucking nuts.

SPEAKER_00

Oh amazing.

SPEAKER_01

And now the the rain pushed out, so it's gonna be beautiful on stuff.

SPEAKER_00

It's rain or shine, bro. So it's springer boots. But it's not raining, so it's fine.

SPEAKER_01

You're good. Yeah. Oh, wow, okay. I'll be there.

SPEAKER_00

Your one was really funny because it did rain a little in the morning, and I remember uh Kieran and I were out there like 5 a.m. Jamie does like the um you're the face, right? So like he I don't task him with anything. Like that's not my job. I work for him. Yep. And that's like that's fine. He was he's on the phone. You're really done. I take direction very well. I pride myself on taking direction very well. But year one, Kieran and I are out there, it's raining, we're setting up, dripping sweat, it's a hundred degrees, and then before you know it, like it's 9 a.m. and the race is gonna start. And I'm like, dude, I'm like still half in my pajamas, and now I smell. And then there's a hundred people in my front yard, and I'm like, all right, here we go. Like it was and just did it. It's so fun. It's like truly super unhinged.

SPEAKER_01

When you put on events, you have this stress, like, oh my god, oh my god. But when it when it's there, no one around it realizes that things are, let's say, going wrong, whatever it is, because they're just there to support, so they're having a good time.

SPEAKER_00

We realize that I never feel like that.

SPEAKER_01

You don't feel like what?

SPEAKER_00

That you're that you're nervous? No, I feel like everyone's notices everything.

SPEAKER_01

I know that, but they don't.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Like even when we talked about the golf outing, things were going wrong, and people say, Oh, it was the best day ever. I'm like, yeah, but you have no idea that what was going on.

SPEAKER_02

I'm excited for the golf outing this year. It's gonna be fucking.

SPEAKER_01

We're totally sold out.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

So now it's so many people are mad about that. And like I'm being personally blamed. Me too. You can't add more fucking holes. Where are you gonna swing the club?

SPEAKER_02

I don't like a max amount of people. There's a big difference between my house, Southgate Manor, which is like my second house, yeah, and fucking the golf course. Like, I can't, I can't fucking bend the rules at that place. Southgate Manor, yeah, come fucking pay at the door. Yeah, I could bend the rules at my house. Yeah, come show up. I'm sorry.

SPEAKER_01

I'm sorry for anyone that couldn't get in, but we make it very clear. We gave people an update.

SPEAKER_02

And I tell everybody, dude, I say, yo, if you want to come to the event, it sells out all of our shit sells out. I know. And it's not like we're just like oh, our shit sells out. It fucking sells out. Like we always try to squeeze, right? What how many people did we squeeze in the South at the gala?

SPEAKER_01

You guys kept it was like one more, more, more, more, more.

SPEAKER_02

Bro, we're gonna have to do the fucking shit at Starland Ballroom, right?

SPEAKER_00

Like, but like how blessed are we that people want to all day long care about the same things we care about?

SPEAKER_01

Do you know what it is to fill a room for an event or even like I said, golf? I I go to a lot of golf outings. Yeah, they're never sold out. Ever. It's always that's the hardest thing to do is sell out a golf event. Yeah, it's expensive, it's not cheap, and it's a whole thing. And what you guys do with the gal, and now we're having Bro Mountain. It's so much awesome stuff that you guys do. It's unbelievable. And I don't think people really, really, really give a round of applause. I'm being serious, it's it's a lot. We don't take that for granted. No, you don't. You put a lot of time and effort into it. It's stressful planning an event.

SPEAKER_02

Kayla puts a lot of effort into it. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

It's like you can't you just can't. I just you can't, and this is another thing like with all these people starting new businesses, and like you can't show up to a community and just take people's money. Yep. You have to give. Yeah. You have to be involved. You have to give first. Oh, I am always give. Yeah. Balls deep right now in PTO. What's it? Like you parent teacher organization. I wish. Well, I think the PTO is balls deep in the world.

SPEAKER_01

For my brain, it's a time off.

SPEAKER_00

No, yeah. Parent teacher organization. Organization. Yeah. What goes on with that? Dude, you should. It could have its own show.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, dude. Oh my god.

SPEAKER_01

But are you like on a board with other people, like other parents?

SPEAKER_02

A bunch of volunteers.

SPEAKER_00

It's a bunch of volunteers. It's it's amazing and it's so much fun, but the stakes are high. Really? It's insane.

SPEAKER_02

Insane.

SPEAKER_00

And we're really lucky. Like our school is top notch, principal. Top notch. That is it is a tightly run ship. It is well funded. It is beautiful. It is like the kids coming out of the school are are gifted. Gifted. They are educated. It's a amazing place to be. But all those fun little extras, like that that's where the parents come in, right? Like, so I don't know. If you're a parent and you're listening, I urge you to involve yourself in that.

SPEAKER_02

Even if it's just once a week showing up, like you have to get or if you're lazy and just buy eClean Bro and we'll fucking pay for it. Seriously. Like you can't do it. We make giving back to the community so easy. Like, yo, listen, if you're like don't know where to start, just fucking buy your dinner with me, dude. And I'll like I'll take the wheel. Like I'll I'll get that kid a new wheelchair, I'll get that kid a new playhouse. Like, just fucking buy eClean bro, dude, and we'll take care of it. Like that's it. And then when it comes time to fucking, you know, Christmas comes and you feel good, like, yeah, I've been eating eClean Bro all year. I feel great. And Jamie went and fucking knocked out a bunch of shit for the community. Like, that's it. Okay. How about that?

Okay, it's gonna happen. Just don't talk about that long. You can manifest that. You can manifest that. No, no, no. Okay. Can I talk about what I'm doing?

SPEAKER_02

Do you remember we had those sandwiches, Troy?

SPEAKER_01

Yes.

SPEAKER_02

So we're working with Joe Leone. It's bakery. We're doing sourdough, tribotta bread, homemade from Joe. It's fucking phenomenal. Homemade cold cuts, homemade condiments. The sandwiches that we're making at eClean Bro are insane. The reason why I'm doing the sandwiches and the salads and then like the dinners and like the air fryer menu, all this stuff is to it's essentially to um we're turning our eClean Bro stores into like destination spots where people can just buy some prepared meals or buy other things. And uh it's just, dude, I in the world of prepared food, man, we are we are lighting it up and we're making a whole bunch of new stuff. Really fucking excited about it.

SPEAKER_01

I love the new packaging.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, the the uh the American flag here. That was huge. Yeah, really, really cool. I think I might leave it permanently. I don't think I might ever want to take the American flag off my package.

SPEAKER_00

You can't leave it permanently. That's a one-time campaign.

SPEAKER_02

Then can we do a Christmas run with like Christmas trees? That'd be really cool. You can do a holiday one. Holiday, yeah. Yeah, you can do that. We could put like a fucking star David on there too.

SPEAKER_01

Is there gonna be a sandwich named after me?

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, so the vocaca chicken.

SPEAKER_01

Oh, the chicken porn. Yeah, so uh Joe Leone put on it.

SPEAKER_02

Joe Leone makes us a sourdough focaccia bread. Like we made like Italian specialty sandwiches on it for the microwave.

SPEAKER_00

Are you you're telling me that?

SPEAKER_02

Yeah. It's in the works. We're working on the packaging. We already made it.

SPEAKER_00

I'm sorry.

SPEAKER_02

You didn't film those yesterday.

SPEAKER_00

Do you not know that I ate half that sample?

SPEAKER_02

Oh man.

SPEAKER_01

So she knows. Yeah. She's the brains behind the business. So I can't. She's the brains behind like a lot of it, yeah.

SPEAKER_00

I came home from work one day and there was this Jolione's bag like stapled on the counter, and I'm like, ooh, you know, like you went right for it. Oh my god, I'm like a rat. Like I'm like a rodent. I ripped that bag open and there was this big faccia in it. I went in. Like I put it in the toaster oven. And then afterwards, I'm like, oh man, like I hope this wasn't a sample for something.

SPEAKER_01

I hope they weren't coming in filming for this thing.

SPEAKER_00

It was oh, and there was like little flakes of salt on it. It was it's good.

SPEAKER_01

So we have sandwiches and you have chicken nuggets coming on. Is that what you just said?

SPEAKER_02

So basically, dude, right now in the health food in the health food world, bro. Everybody's really into beef tallow. I think beef tallow was good. It could be good. It's definitely a healthy alternative. What's that? Uh it's beef fat. So, like, ah man, like my mystery.

SPEAKER_01

So, like, dude. This is good stuff for the cooking show. Like, I'm not gonna put anything.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, so my like my my background and what I try to do, bro. I try to use extra virgin olive oil. I do use extra virgin olive oil. It's like the only thing we cook with, and if it's under its smoke point, like we have you know, the oil's chilling at like 325 to 350, which is the perfect time for, in my opinion, to fry a chicken or poultry in.

SPEAKER_00

He's the seed oil police.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, I know. Yeah, the seed oil police.

SPEAKER_01

So I didn't know that was even a thing. We talked about that last week. I was like, holy cow.

SPEAKER_02

Oh, yeah, dude, it's crazy.

SPEAKER_00

I get spanked if there's seed oil in the house.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, I don't want it in the house, and I don't want it, I don't want it on my menu, you know? So yeah, it's aside from the sesame oil with our Asian dishes, everything else is seed oil free. Uh-huh. But sesame oil has antioxidants, it's it's a non-inflammatory oil, it's really not the bad one. The bad ones are the high process, like canola, vegetable, okay, a soybean oil. Those are the ones that you want to stay away from. But uh So chicken nuggets. So yeah, the chicken nuggets, dude, I think they're gluten-free. I'm nearly positive. They're did Todd say they're gluten-free?

SPEAKER_00

They are. So I'm sitting at my desk. Gluten-free chicken nuggets. They're fucking hammering away on my email, and Todd comes through the door of the office with this steaming tray. Like a like, not like a normal, like, so technically the cookie sheets that you have in your house are a quarter tray. I think a half a quarter or a half. A full tray of these chicken nuggets. Yeah, like puts it down on the desk and he's like, Do you want to try a chicken nugget? And I'm like, Do you have? So now I'm like eating these chicken nuggets, and this man comes to the door and he's like, Are these the chicken nuggets? And I'm like, Yeah. Some random man eats the chicken nugget, he walks away. I'm like, okay. Maybe it was like one of our distributors or something. I don't know. And then there's like another man, and then there's another man with Jamie, and I said, Oh, hi, like, who are you? He goes, These are just customers that were shopping in the store. Oh, and he brought them back. He starts bringing customers back to my office. Like, and now it's me, Jamie, and like these three dudes. Just eating chicken nuggets. Eating chicken nuggets. And I'm like, where did you find these guys? He's like, I don't know, they were shopping. I thought they might want to try it. And that's like a daily occurrence in my office. That's a great, like that drives me nuts when you do that.

SPEAKER_01

But I guess nuggets, do you uh use ketchup? Or barbecue sauce or whatever? Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

So our barbecue, so basically, dude, the barbecue sauce, the eClean Bro barbecue sauce at eClean Bro is a great substitute. I think our honey mustard's a lot better.

SPEAKER_01

Is the barbecue the one that's with the basic elite?

SPEAKER_02

No. So the basic elite's the barbecue sauce. Yeah, just a dairy. I thought you asked honey mustard.

SPEAKER_01

I think I'm gonna switch because it has like a little kick to it, doesn't it? Which I it does have a little kick. I do like it.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, it's an organic ketchup.

SPEAKER_00

It's like, you know, change uh what do you change?

SPEAKER_02

Look, our yeah buddy barbecue sauce, yeah, but the yeah buddy barbecue sauce is a much sweeter, okay, uh, tangier. It's a it's a more traditional barbecue sauce. Unfortunately, for eClean bro, real barbecue sauce is like diabetes juice, and uh we can't use like the real shit. Okay. So I got like this primal kitchen fucking barbecue sauce, knockoff shit. That is good. The ingredients are great, it is good, it does the job. But when I'm looking in the world of barbecue and technical food world, the barbecue sauce, it for somebody on a diet trying to lose weight, does a great job. It's a great substitute. Next to real fucking homemade barbecue sauce, like our Yeah Buddy recipe for our catering, that shit'll knock the socks off.

SPEAKER_00

But it's also I'm just thinking about like sucking sweet baby rays straight from the bottle. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, damn. We did that baby rays. So bad.

SPEAKER_02

We did the when we did the the R D for our Yeah Buddy barbecue sauce, it was like a hybrid between like uh sweet baby rays and um Malcolm Malcolm Reed's uh how to barbecue right, you know. Oh, he's cool. He's the man, he's he's the man. Oh, that's good.

SPEAKER_01

So we have chicken nuts, we have sandwiches.

SPEAKER_02

So I suggest the honey mustard because it's literally just like it's yellow mustard and um you know, organic agave we use, sweeten it up nice. It's it's like fucking great.

SPEAKER_01

And you're opening up more and more pop-up stores. Grabbing the.

SPEAKER_00

Well, hold on. The current salad selection.

SPEAKER_02

Oh man, dude.

SPEAKER_00

Makes my heart sing. I like the chopped salad. Oh my gosh. Well, that's yes.

SPEAKER_02

So the chopped the Italian Italian salad, I like that a lot. That's amazing. Dude, if you like the chopped Italian, yeah, you're gonna love the turkey provolone. Really?

SPEAKER_01

It's like so it's like uh what did they call it? Uh what's that salad?

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, but you can't say it because like they're trademarked.

SPEAKER_02

They could say it.

SPEAKER_00

Listen, sub in a tub, jersey mics, that's what it is.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, 100%. I said it from day one. Meg things posted jersey mics, tub, tub, sub in a tub or whatever. And I was like, oh fuck that looks all I love jersey mics. I love I love that turkey provolone sandwich. It brings me back to my childhood. Out of all the disgusting giant food chain franchise shits, I like Jersey Mike sandwich once in a while. I do. Okay. It's my guilty pleasure. I'll die on that fucking hill. Sub in a ton. I love the fucking the I love that turkey provolone.

SPEAKER_00

So mine is Chick-fil-A.

SPEAKER_02

Chick-fil-A's good too.

SPEAKER_01

I mean, is your fast food like thing the go-to?

SPEAKER_00

That's what I would choose, yes. Really?

SPEAKER_02

I think like gun to my head. I think Shake Shack might be my go-to.

SPEAKER_01

Shake Shack or Wendy's, but I'd probably go Shake Shack.

SPEAKER_00

I haven't had Wendy's in years.

SPEAKER_01

Uh spicy chicken combo. I don't eat it. I haven't eaten in God knows how long. I'll Shake Shack is my go-to.

SPEAKER_02

I think Troy, with like the world of marketing, like the Facebook, the Google, yeah, like I think people are tired of just getting hit with ads. I think they want they want to feel connected to your brand or like your mission or what you're about, and they want to know who they spend money with. I think like Facebook, Facebook ads are just so annoying at this point.

SPEAKER_01

Is there someone that you want to collab with?

SPEAKER_00

Oh, that's a really hard question. Like my dream collab.

SPEAKER_01

In a way, yeah. If someone said, Hey, I can get you access to within reason of being realistic. Like, don't say Kim Kardashian, right?

SPEAKER_02

Like it's someone like I can get in touch with her. Who? Kim. Oh, yeah? Get her on the show. I don't know if she'd go on the show, but I'd get her on the phone. But I'm saying, like, if you had to do a collab.

SPEAKER_00

This is like when you wanted Alex Earl on the show. And I said, Are you on drugs?

SPEAKER_01

Well, because I talked about it way before her big break of dancing with the stars and now she's every reality.

SPEAKER_01

She's so cool. I want her on the show. There's no one that we know that can get her on the show. I don't know anyone. What message her? Get out of here. I'm gonna message her. Does anyone know Alex or that they can get her on the show? Oh my god. Make that a fucking clip. She's from Jersey. How's she gonna get her on the show? Sorry, we're getting excited.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_01

But anyway. Collab. So who was your dream collab?

SPEAKER_00

Actually, it wouldn't be a person.

SPEAKER_02

Oh, what is that surfer you thought was cool to be? That kid who ripped the sea streak.

SPEAKER_00

There was this guy who surfed the wake behind the sea streak from New York to uh did he do the whole thing? No way. No, not the whole thing, but it was dope. Like they do it in Texas all the time, right? Where there's no ocean, there's only rivers. They do like wake surfing.

SPEAKER_01

Like I did away.

SPEAKER_00

He did it out on the Sea Streak. It was sick. I I I don't know. I started following him. Okay. That's easy to make happen, though. Like you could find people doing cool shit everywhere. But like it would probably be like a brand collab. Like um, and you wouldn't agree with this, but it would probably be some kind of uh not Tupperware, but like Pyrex or like something in the food space, like something like a Ziploc?

SPEAKER_02

Like our fucking air fryer. Yeah, that'd be cool as well.

SPEAKER_00

Like our place. Yeah. It would be something like that. Interesting. What a different approach. Yeah. People scare me, right? Because I've you've seen that go wrong so many times. You do a collab with someone and then you get the hate from that. No, they get a DUI. Yeah. It's like, oh, that worked for nothing. You know what I mean? Like I hate when that happens.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, yeah. Oh god. It's a whole thing.

SPEAKER_00

Like, I it just you did all that work and then one person's poor decision. I could think of one I filmed that the guy then got fired from the company. All the footage is unusable. It's like, I don't know, putting putting it on people is rough.

SPEAKER_03

Okay.

SPEAKER_00

I think capitalizing on moments with people is very strong. Okay. Like the oh my gosh, yesterday, so funny. Uh Kimmy Antonelli did the skit about the towel.

SPEAKER_01

I didn't see it. Did you see that? Okay.

SPEAKER_00

So another, like, I I love a good celebrity moment. And I'm not like obsessive, like I don't obsess over celebrities, but I do respect a lot of like I I love the fanfare. I love Taylor Swift, courtside at the next prime example. I am excited for her. I like her. She's getting married. It's so exciting.

SPEAKER_01

Think she's getting married at M Mass Square Garden?

SPEAKER_00

I do, because why would that be that's cool?

SPEAKER_01

I know.

SPEAKER_00

That's really cool. So uh I hope I tell the story right. But basically, Kim Kardashian is now with Lewis Hamilton. Yes. So after the race, they set out like you know how they leave players like a towel and water, whatever. So Kim Kardashian walks by Kimmy Antonelli's stuff, picks up his towel, and like wipes her sweat with it and takes the towel. Like she stole his towel. So his team yesterday posted on Instagram him being like, has anyone seen my towel?

SPEAKER_01

No way. I missed that.

SPEAKER_00

It's like you gotta be so quick with it.

SPEAKER_01

You gotta be quick with it.

SPEAKER_00

And that's like the people that all day.

SPEAKER_01

But that's why you have we have to live on social media because Oh, it's our job. Yeah, see, that's the thing. When you see something like that, you have to jump on it.

SPEAKER_01

Well, the story was we were rushing from filming because we were running late. So I had to go home. I got changed quickly, and I was running around. I got in my car and we went there.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

We pulled up as she gets out of that car and I went and looked in the back seat. I left my jacket at home. Yeah. At that point, nothing you can do. I had a vest on because it was a tux and I looked like a waiter. I think I got I think someone asked me to get them a fucking drink at one point.

SPEAKER_00

I was there for that.

SPEAKER_01

I was so embarrassed because everyone had a jacket on and I just didn't know what to do with myself. Because any other if it wasn't you guys, I would have just went home. I would have left. I would have left, I would have left in two seconds.

SPEAKER_00

I've never seen a man like do the like either it's a button-down shirt or a jacket. Like I've never seen the vest.

SPEAKER_01

I know. Like the the the And if there was like a party and there was music, maybe oh, I took the jacket. Oh, but it wasn't even like that. It was like we sat down. So the whole time I was sitting down, I just didn't have a jacket. I was super embarrassed. But it wasn't about me, it was about you that night. Thank you. So it didn't matter. Yeah, we're really proud of you. Yes. I um I mean that.

SPEAKER_00

I'm not being sarcastic.

SPEAKER_01

Honestly, I was super proud to be in that room and be with you guys because you know, we can talk about it. So you got nominated from Ernst and Young's entrepreneurial.

SPEAKER_00

Entrepreneur of the year.

SPEAKER_01

Yes, of the year of in New Jersey. Just New Jersey.

SPEAKER_00

It was New Jersey, yeah. Yeah. And to give to give people like perspective, like last year's winner was Poppy.

SPEAKER_01

Yes. It's oh it's a big deal. Oh, it's legit. Big people were in there, they were doing some crazy shit that was blown away and made me feel like I I live in a really small bubble in my industry. Yeah. Because there are magical people doing a lot of things, and you were on that list. Yeah. You guys were on that list.

SPEAKER_00

But that's like when we got in the car, like that's what we said is like the there's no way you can be offended about not winning when there were people in there literally curing cancer.

SPEAKER_01

Literally, yeah, literally trying to cure inflammation, this and that, and then you know, and Jamie made a joke. He's like, you know, I'm saving lives too. Like I'm I'm feeding people, yeah, yeah. Yes, you are, but it's it's to look at that, you're in that group of 36 or 35 people or businesses, and you were asked back twice.

SPEAKER_02

Entrepreneurship, in my in my opinion, man, entrepreneurship is so cool. And part of the you know, for me, man, entrepreneurship saved my life. And I try to teach people everything I can because I believe a chain is only as strong as its weakest link. And that's why I'm so basically I'm I'm so committed to helping people, especially like women and minority-owned businesses, with like giving them insight, giving them tips, tricks. And at that time when I was a multimillionaire, I would uh constantly give back and try to help people and and to become better entrepreneurs. Entrepreneurship is very important to me. And I believe like it's it's all of our way to to chase our dreams, to chase our freedom and our pursuit of happiness, and to do whatever we want. But obviously, if you're gonna go and sign up to do a boxing match, like you want to prepare and you want to make sure, like, hey, look, I can handle getting hit in the face.

So I actually have never bought tickets to the movies like ahead of time. Like I'm not that kind of guy. No, I mean like weeks in advance, right? Like something's about to release. Like never. That's ridiculous. I actually did it for the first time ever yesterday. Toy Story 5 is coming out next week. It is.

SPEAKER_00

Aw.

SPEAKER_01

Like it faded in the back. Jeez, man.

SPEAKER_00

But when they when we go to the movies, the kids are allowed to get whatever they want. That's like a free freebie. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

I can't drink soda like that though. Wait, but you just said you drink diacoke.

SPEAKER_00

That's a that's not like no, I'm talking about full sugar. Like soda. No.

SPEAKER_02

I just I got honestly. It's too much. And bro, I don't know if it's psychological, but I could feel like my shoulder joints. Like when you have sugary inflammation. Yeah, I'm telling you, dude. Like I have like old injuries. Like when I drink soda or I drink anything bad, like you're like, oh man, like oh man, that's from fucking high school, or that's this. You're like, ouch. That's from high school. Yeah, dude. You know, the mind forgets, the body does not.

SPEAKER_01

I guess, yeah. All right.

SPEAKER_02

So, baby, we had such a we had such a great time with you here.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. Do you have anything else you want to get get off your chest before we end it? There's nothing.

SPEAKER_00

I think I think I've done enough data.

SPEAKER_01

I think you did great, but I don't know if there was one thing that was still in the back in your mind.

SPEAKER_00

What?

SPEAKER_02

The fucking garlic and oil at Angelica's, dude. Oh my gosh. I'm so hungry. I skipped that fucking thing the whole time. For years I'm going to Angelica's. I'm like, yeah, it's garlic and oil. How good can it be? How good can it be? Bro, I'm telling you, if you get into Angelica's, you get that fucking garlic and oil. It's unbelievable. Dude, I will never go to Angelica's.

SPEAKER_01

So it's part of my order.

SPEAKER_02

I will never not get that fucking dish.

SPEAKER_01

It's part of my thing every single time.

SPEAKER_02

Escroll and bean soup, too. But if they have it, but they're not going to have it now. It's not the time of giving it. Those two fucking dishes. That's all I got. We're going to Angelica's tonight. I'm really excited. I'm going to eat. And um are you bringing wine? Because I could I could bring a wine.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, she got wine. She just stopped and got wine.

SPEAKER_02

All right. Fine. Okay.

SPEAKER_00

She's the best.

SPEAKER_02

Maybe she's good. She knows. She knows her duties. She does. Let me see what I have. I got that fucking 2016 Silver Oak that's been sitting. Don't worry.

SPEAKER_00

The way I'm just thinking about like how many how many bottles? She'll bring two bottles.

SPEAKER_01

We'll be fine.

SPEAKER_02

Okay.

SPEAKER_01

We don't need more than that. Because I'm bringing it tequila. I always have one glass tequila to start off. Just one. Alright. It's it's a taste. Two sips. Yeah, it's a taste. Taste is nice.

SPEAKER_00

Two sips nice.

SPEAKER_01

So there's nothing you want to end our conversation off. You're good? Want to make sure we hit when's the kid's last day of school?

SPEAKER_00

This is such high pressure. Yeah, I know. Um, the kids' last day of school is just June 24th. Oh, that sucks. It sucks.

unknown

Wait.

SPEAKER_00

All the fucking snow days.

SPEAKER_01

Oh, this year they're just ranking them in the snow days.

SPEAKER_00

But what is Monday?

SPEAKER_02

Field day.

SPEAKER_00

And guess who volunteered to come to Field Day?

SPEAKER_02

Big Daddy Jamie.

SPEAKER_00

Big Daddy Jamie.

SPEAKER_01

What goes on? Like, is that like color wars? Like in that?

SPEAKER_00

It is intense. Like, we have the two dopish gym teachers. Like, they put on a show. No way. It is awesome. Honestly, he has no idea what he's in for. But I did warn him, like, you need to be there and like with a prep in your step. You're not there to be man candy. You're gonna get a job. And these moms don't play.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

Wear your sneakers.

SPEAKER_01

Are both your kids at the same school?

SPEAKER_00

They are.

SPEAKER_01

They are. That's cool. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah. That's the first year that they're at the same school. Oh, no way. Yeah. And it honestly it's amazing.

SPEAKER_02

The teachers at that school are so fucking good. But basically, man, I was so moved with everything that that they're doing that I I extended my first responder uh law enforcement discount to the teachers. Because I know that like, you know, globally. I extended so teachers, first responders, police, they come to my store. There's uh there's a nice discount.

SPEAKER_00

And this was huge for him because I feel like Jamie growing up, and I don't want to overshare bore you, but like I was betrayed by teachers, and my mom lost custody of me when I was 14 years old. He didn't have a great experience like with his teachers, and not that he was a hater of teachers, but like to see now the level of care and kindness and what our kids are getting, I think is really shifting how he feels about teachers. Okay. His heart is being repaired. Yeah, okay. Yeah, it's very cool.

SPEAKER_01

That was and that's okay because your experience is different than what it is now, and at least you're able to rise above it and say, Okay, people, there are different people, there are different changes. This will not just hate and say, fuck, I'll hate him for the rest of my fucking life. And you're you're not doing that.

SPEAKER_00

I'm gonna hate Diet Pepsi for the rest of my life.

SPEAKER_01

That's fine. That's okay. I still don't think we'll know the difference.

SPEAKER_02

We're gonna have a great dinner tonight. Yeah, I'm excited. And you're right, I am. I I did. I crossed that bridge and I feel like the love and care that goes into those jobs and how they selflessly serve the kids, man. It's just it's it was just moving to me, especially with my son. And I'm just so grateful, man. Like I always love Marlboro, I always love John Hornick. And I knew from the day I started working at New York Sports Club in 2005 on Route Nine, I said, I'm gonna fucking live in this town. I love this town, I want to be a part of this town, and now you know my kids are you are the town. I'm up there, yeah. So yeah, I love John Hornick, I love Marlboro, I love Pete. Um I love the town, and I and I love it. The teachers, man. So I'm so happy to be there. I love you. And I love you. And I love that you're love you too, Troy. I love you too. I love you too. I really do. I really, really do love the town. So okay. But uh awesome, man.

SPEAKER_01

What are you gonna do then? What are you gonna do with it?

SPEAKER_02

I was saying at the end after dinner, eat it. Oh. I'm not gonna bring fucking jersey freeze from Angelica's. It'd be like, look, man, you get away with murder here, but what are you doing?
