For our first-ever episode of How You Slice It, Ilir meets with Scott Wiener, founder of Scott’s Pizza Tours and Slice Out Hunger. In our very own pizzeria booth, they discuss starting a business inside a school bus, uncover the connection between taste and location, and celebrate pizza’s power for good through programs like Slice Out Hunger. 

Have a listen to learn Scott’s vote for most homiest pizzeria and to finally settle the debate about NYC pizza’s (alleged) secret ingredient: tap water.

High Hops Brewery: Blueberry wheat, Diebolt: Rayon solaire, Oxbow: Farmhouse pale ale and Weldwerks: Neapolitan ice cream sour

The guys talk about St. Patrick's Day, heckling in sports, and tell you what curse word they think kids should learn first. They also do a mock draft of things that make them mad.

Happy New Year! In episode 87 of The Cavalry, Johnny talks about the bad gifts he got his wife and needs backup on how to keep the aging kids at the kids table for game night and how to trim the Christmas card list. Andrew needs backup on drivers being prejudiced against Priuses. 

Tony Gemignani is the reigning rock star of the pizza universe, having won every major competition award, helmed a number of hot-ticket pizza restaurants, and mentored and coached dozens of the rising pizza stars at his pizza school in San Francisco, and on his World Pizza Champions team. Tony is a master of every style of pizza in much the way that Mozart was a master of every form of music. In the world of sports, he would be referred to as a generational talent. Plus, he's a great guy too.

There’s too much here to keep stuffed inside one box, so our next flavor of Brain Balm, Neapolitan, takes up two episodes. Let’s take ideas that don’t go together… that should NOT go together… and put them together anyway! Let’s finish talking about Neapolitan, the second of our silly approaches to generating new ideas. Just like three flavors of ice cream that somehow ended up combined in the same carton, we can create something special by breaking down barriers that keep ideas apart. Let me know what you think and share your own ideas: Dave@Mentorvention.com.

This is part one of the seventh of nine flavors of brain balm, brainstorming ideas to massage your message.

Practical Approaches:                      

• Heal the Pain
• The Toothbrush Test
• Deeper Inside the Box

Aspirational Approaches:

• Stand on the Shoulders of Giants
• What Would Midas Do?
• The Blank of Blank

Silly Approaches:

• It’s Opposite Day!
• Neapolitan

We’re getting close to the end of this series, and once we finish Brain Balm, we will unpack a whole new set of Mentorvention Minutes. Let me know what you think and share your own ideas: Dave@Mentorvention.com.
