00:00 [MUSIC PLAYING]

00:14 All right, Pizza of Your Time.

00:15 We're at Russo's in New Hope, New Jersey.

00:18 The town's fucking beautiful, Austin.

00:20 It's like every little kid is coming down Main Street.

00:23 They've got the stores.

00:24 Feels like Thanksgiving.

00:26 They've got a bunch of Italian flags that all want-- Irish.

00:31 But yeah, just very picturesque, very New England-y,

00:34 even though we're in Jersey.

00:36 Cool vibes.

00:37 The guy in there, he's calling me cuz.

00:39 He's like, how's life out there?

00:41 Like, you're just doing it out there, huh?

00:42 I'm like, what do you mean, just everywhere?

00:44 He's like, yeah, how is it out there?

00:46 That's what he asked.

00:47 How is it out there?

00:48 It's like, just everywhere?

00:52 It's great.

00:52 They did really good for us, man.

00:54 That was really--

00:55 So now we need it, cuz.

00:57 He doesn't mean out there like life.

00:59 Yeah.

01:00 Yeah.

01:01 Yeah, it's good.

01:02 I mean, you brought notoriety back to small business,

01:05 mom and pop.

01:05 I appreciate that.

01:06 He's super nice.

01:07 Guys like, come, I'll make you dinner off menu.

01:09 The pizza, he's giving the story.

01:11 It's fucking huge.

01:13 You can't even get through the door with it.

01:14 $30.

01:15 He's like, you know, McDonald's.

01:16 He's right.

01:17 They've raised the price because Gavin Newsom,

01:18 who's a piece of garbage, hates small business.

01:22 But fast food, $60.

01:24 Because they raise minimum wage.

01:26 Good, but then the McDonald's jacked it.

01:28 I'm ranting.

01:29 Point is, like, you come here, $40, $50,

01:32 feed the whole family, no problem.

01:34 He gave me cannoli, meatball.

01:35 What's up with the size of these things?

01:37 It's family.

01:38 OK.

01:38 You know, like, the big bowl of pasta.

01:41 When you go out to eat with two or three kids,

01:44 you go to McDonald's now, it's $60.

01:45 Yeah, right.

01:46 So you come here, you get a $30 pie.

01:49 You leave $5 for a tip, have some sodas.

01:51 Have some $40, $50.

01:52 Give the whole--

01:53 Take the kids out.

01:54 Love it.

01:55 Cuz.

01:56 I started calling him Cuz Austin by the end.

01:58 I don't know if you caught that.

02:00 I shot his like--

02:01 he's like, here you go.

02:02 I was like, thanks, Cuz.

02:03 Nice meeting you.

02:04 Thanks.

02:04 Thanks, man.

02:05 Super nice guy.

02:06 And he's a stoolie.

02:07 Watches "Rub 'n' Rowdy."

02:08 He's like, I bet with you.

02:10 Super nice guy.

02:11 This pizza's gigantic.

02:13 He said he's from Robbinsville area.

02:15 Tomato pie.

02:16 He does a little less starch.

02:17 You grew up in Trenton, Bristol.

02:20 So I know you went out to Robbinsville.

02:22 Yeah, yeah.

02:22 That's a tomato pie land.

02:24 But my problem with them always was it was a little too

02:27 starchy sometimes.

02:28 So we all have the same ingredient.

02:32 I just put back a little bit of mine.

02:34 OK.

02:34 The one thing about doing pizza this big

02:37 is how do you keep that crunch on that big of a slice?

02:41 One bite, everybody knows the rules.

02:42 It was in the box.

02:43 My shirt, he gave it.

02:44 That's dripping in.

02:45 [CRUNCHING]

02:51 Yeah.

02:52 Listen.

02:53 [CRUNCHING]

02:55 I do like it.

02:56 [CRUNCHING]

02:59 But my only thing would be I do think

03:09 if you went a little smaller, you'd

03:11 have a tighter, crispier pizza.

03:13 It's really hard with this mega pizza

03:16 to keep it from doing that flock.

03:18 But it's good.

03:19 The sauce is good.

03:20 The bread is good.

03:22 Crust is good.

03:23 The town is phenomenal.

03:26 I'm going to go New Hope.

03:27 Of course it's called New Hope.

03:30 75?

03:32 Again, I think you just got to--

03:35 it's so hard to do a slice this big that keeps the crunch.

03:39 Now let's do all the other assorted things.

03:42 [CRUNCHING]

03:44 He didn't even say this was for--

03:47 I don't even really love cannolis,

03:48 but cuz made me do it.

03:52 Oh.

03:58 Forgot the whole thing.

03:59 I bought a t-shirt.

04:01 This was the slogan.

04:02 Hi.

04:06 Hi there.

04:07 You ever seen--

04:08 Hey, what you're done?

04:09 Can I just get a picture?

04:10 Yeah, of course.

04:10 Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

04:11 Thanks, Custody.

04:12 Thanks, Custody.

05:01 We were in Seattle for 10 years.

05:04 My brother was a fighter.

05:05 He was a fighter, but he didn't have no money.

05:07 And he was selling cheese steaks in between.

05:10 We were here.

05:10 We had a kid on the way.

05:12 And we were going to go to Wildwood and open up a spot.

05:14 And he heard.

05:15 My mom told him.

05:16 And he said, just come in here and get your shot.

05:18 So we took a look.

05:20 But it's Seattle, brother.

05:22 When you're from Philly and you go to Seattle,

05:24 it's like fucking--

05:25 You call people cuz they don't know what you're doing.

05:27 They don't know what you're saying.

05:28 They think you're a blutz.

05:29 Yeah.

05:30 No, I'm not kidding.

05:31 I used the word.

05:32 I said, cuz, what's up?

05:33 He goes, what do you mean by that?

05:35 My brother had the gun.

05:35 No, no, no.

05:36 You know.

05:36 You gotta watch.

05:38 There are gangbangers out here.

05:39 Cuz means one of the signs.

05:41 Oh, you meant--

05:42 I thought you meant--

05:43 I went like, yo, cuz.

05:44 I thought you, when you said, what,

05:45 I thought you meant like they thought of you as--

05:46 Yeah, the Bloods and Crips.

05:47 We had a cheese steak joint.

05:48 I thought you meant cuz and like related.

05:50 Right.

05:50 That's what we said.

05:51 I know what you mean.

05:52 But I thought they're like, wait, I'm not related to you.

05:54 I thought they were taking it literally.

05:55 No.

05:56 You said cuz.

05:57 I wish you would have taken it that way instead of like,

05:59 I'm going to get shot out front now.

06:01 You know, we had a cheese steak joint.

06:03 And then it morphed into the Pines.
