In this episode, we sit down with Alex and Ben Jensen , the powerhouse brothers behind REIClosers and Caruth Brothers Real Estate , to talk all things real estate hustle—straight from the trenches. From their early days knocking doors to consistently closing $20K+ wholesale deals, the Jensens have built a standout brand by mixing serious strategy with a whole lot of personality. We get into how they turned cold calls into community, why adding entertainment to education is their secret sauce, and how social content has helped them connect, inspire, and level up new investors. There’s also some unfiltered fun along the way: Joe jumps in for a mock “door-to-door closer” roleplay, we hear wild tales from the field (including scoring snacks and home-cooked meals mid-deal), and yes—we talk about the real estate deal that nearly became a full-blown sitcom. Whether you’re a seasoned investor or just here for the laughs, this episode is packed with sharp insights, real stories, and enough charisma to close any room.…

André Hueston Mack isn’t your typical wine guy. Growing up drinking 40s of Olde English, he never imagined wine would become his life—but a late-night rerun of Frasier , with its over-the-top love for Bordeaux and Château d’Yquem, sparked something unexpected. That quirky mix of humor and luxury cracked the door open, and he kicked it wide with hustle, heart, and a sharp eye for style. After leaving a corporate job behind, André rose through the sommelier ranks, with a milestone moment at The French Laundry. But that was just the launch. Today, he’s the founder of Maison Noir Wines , a brand that blends bold storytelling, hip-hop flavor, and graphic design into every bottle. In this episode, André shares his unfiltered origin story, his take on natural wine, and how he’s used humor and culture to shake up an industry often known for being buttoned-up. We talk art, labels, breaking the rules, and building a wine world that actually feels like real life. If you’re into wine, music, design—or just love a damn good Inspiring story—this one’s for you.…

Whether it’s unexpected food pairings, tales of farm life in Vermont, or the outrageous adventures of taking WhistlePig on the road, Jeff brings a fresh, fun perspective that proves you can disrupt an industry and have a blast doing it.
