Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Cuttin it up with Uncle Paulie
Q: When did the idea of Uncle Paulie's Deli truly click as a business?
The concept crystallized when the two of us decided to open an East Coast Sandwich Shop in LA, aiming for a neighborhood spot that felt familiar and welcoming, with fresh ingredients and a local feel. It grew from a social idea into a real business with a strong community focus.
Cuttin it up with Uncle Paulie
Q: So wait, you moved to Manhattan when you were 20. What were you doing there?
I started by leveraging family roots in the club scene; my mother ran comedy clubs and connected me to hospitality and branding work. That period gave me a front-row seat to how venues, people, and brands collide, which later informed how I built Uncle Paulie's Deli.
Cuttin it up with Uncle Paulie
Q: You're originally from Queens, right?
Yes, I grew up in Flushing, Queens, and I eventually moved to Manhattan as I started building my career in clubs and hospitality. The East Coast vibe shaped how I approached both business and branding.
Why Knitwear Doesn’t Last Anymore — with Ronnie Chiu of Colhay’s
Q: What are the best practices for caring for knitwear?

Why Knitwear Doesn’t Last Anymore — with Ronnie Chiu of Colhay’s
Q: What is the main reason why modern knitwear doesn't last?
Ronnie explains that a combination of reduced fiber quality due to overproduction, decreased patience in yarn production, and a shift away from high tension knitting all contribute to the decline in durability.
