Robert Irvine

Super excited to welcome in my next guest for this episode.

Chef, entrepreneur, change maker, TV host, you name it, all those things, Robert Irvine.

Good to see you in person.

It's great

I was just a young cub reporter.

It was like at a Walmart annual shareholder.

I'm watching Robert Irvine cook in front of me, and I remember he made the CEO do push-ups, right?

That's it.

First, stay in the WWE theme for a minute.

Know that TV show, Dinner Impossible? Chef Robert Irvine, who's married to Gail Kim? I have always said I am a big fan of Robert Irvine.

Always was.

Followed his shows.

Amen to that.

And I'm smiling because again, it's like we're brothers from another mother, because one of the things that I was challenged by from my mentor and my best friend, Robert Irvine, who I know was listening to this episode is nothing really matters if you don't make impact.

Right.

And he was talking both in my professional and personal life is like, your people want to make impact.

Plus, he was commanding the high ground.

Or is I going to evade him? And I decided I was going to evade him, live to fight another day.

So I successfully get out of the situation and then, dude, three days later, the one person in my life, my best friend, the guy who I could call 2 o'clock in the morning, 5 a.m. in the morning, and he would come there in a heartbeat, commit suicide.

And at this point in time, You know, I had been given this because that I talked to you about and I had been resisting it with every strength that I had in my bones because it was so foreign to anything I had done before it.

We should.

We're going to have Michael, not Michael, but Robert Irvine on one night.

There

you go.

Oh,

I watched the Robert Irvine or whoever those other bar rescue kitchen rescue, like all those shows.

I can turn this thing around.

I'm just going to do this little, this little, that cut the menu and boom, I'm going to be

recording remotely, and then, which we'll get into as well, continually filming content for my show on TikTok, which is called Go Fork Yourself, which...

But also too, I am like in February, I'm going to be going to cook and host at a big event at the ALNA up in Washington with Robert Irvine and Alex Guarnaschelli and Antonio LaFasso.

And if those names mean nothing to you, okay.

But they're huge culinary beasts in real life, in restaurants and on the network.

We're going to peel back some layers on this onion.

It's Robert Irvine.

Robert Irvine, welcome to the show.

It's a pleasure to have you on.

How are you doing, brother? That's a pretty good intro, isn't it?

Pixar slop in a bag.

And I was so upset.

So this journey has taken me 23 years of traveling the globe with USO tours, with Unforced Entertainment tours, with Robert Irvine tours themselves.

And one of the problems that most of these companies have are they're fearful of making decisions.

Robert Irvine is a chef, entrepreneur, TV host, and lead trainer for Overcoming Impossible Live that focuses on the problems business owners face and puts them on the road to solving them.

His next session is this Friday in Brooklyn, New York.

So we're going to look at what their impossible is and overcome their impossible in the room that day.

And I want people to walk away with the feeling that, oh, we've learned something and we didn't know that walking in the room.

And now I have a plan to go back to my associates, my people, and it's different than what I thought walking in the room.

We're talking with chef and entrepreneur Robert Irvine.

We'll have more for you in just a moment.
