at an environmental regulatory conference a couple weeks
1:26
back. We've been working on scheduling to get
1:28
them with us over the last couple weeks,
1:30
so glad that they've remembered,
1:31

1:41
Yeah, We are absolutely thrilled. Yes. It's a
1:43
hot 1 today.
1:45
So since it's summertime.
1:48
Our ice breaker for the day is if
1:50
you have someone visiting,
1:52
New Jersey that has never been here,
1:54
what would you suggest they do or
1:57
eat.
1:59
That's a good 1. That's the good 10II
2:07
guess, just in general.
2:09
In general. If it could be a favorite
2:10
time of year, whatever it is you're thinking
2:12
to what... If you have somebody from out
2:14
of out of town or out of that's
2:16
never been to new Jersey. Like, oh my
2:18
gosh. You have to do this.
2:24
Hey
2:32
No. That's for us. That's for us to
2:34
pitch chat of it. Yeah. There is no
2:35
audience.
2:37
We're not live.
2:41
Go ahead, Marco, what were you saying?
2:48
Mh.
3:15
Garden state?
3:17
Oh, the garden state.
3:22
See, I was expecting the beach answer. I
3:24
wasn't expecting anybody to go. Drive west, find
3:28
a deer, find a bigger tat die.
3:31
Get better. Here in New Jersey.
3:33
Wait, yeah, but it's so true because, like,
3:36
you know, with the sop, I feel like
3:37
when most people think of New Jersey, they
3:39
think of the opening of the sop.
3:41
And there's so much more to I live
3:43
on the I live in As park. So
3:45
it's fabulous them, you know, on the beach.
3:48
It's completely different all over. You got cranberry
3:51
bog. Yeah. It's got different fields no matter
3:53
where you are on. It's a small state.
4:05
It's got everything.
4:08
Absolutely. I mean, I'm in Southern Jersey and
4:10
we're... Like, I'm around all the farmers markets
4:13
and farms and that sort of thing, like,
4:14
like, really what farm to table I think
4:16
is what they call it. I think the
4:18
question is so ironic because Ben and I
4:19
were talking before we started. He was at
4:21
a a popular buffet rex up this weekend.
4:24
They and dope to the point where he
4:25
began to snooze at the table. So I
4:27
was on kick it
4:29
This sp to chao. I don't know if
4:31
you've ever heard of this. But they they
4:33
just keep bringing you meat until you either
4:35
pass out or begged them to stop.
4:38
I
4:39
we were I was
4:43
fog to chow. Yeah, it's a Brazilian steakhouse.
4:47
Like, so...
4:48
Yeah. I... I had been spec
4:51
my my daughter and my wife and A5K
4:53
earlier in the day, and I don't know
4:55
how hot it was, but at least 90.
4:57
So Had just been standing out there in
4:58
the heat, and then we went right from
5:00
that to the the thing, and oh my
5:02
gosh. I I passed her out.
5:08
Yeah,
5:09
my answer would be food, though. I I...
5:11
Unless the person was from New York. I'd
5:13
tell him to get pizza. I'd be like,
5:16
You definitely want some New Jersey pizza unless
5:18
you're from New York then it might be
5:20
arguably a step down.
5:22
Oh, I don't think so. I think New
5:24
Jersey Pizza is better. Said, arguably. Yeah. That's
5:27
but... Yeah. If you were from New York,
5:29
you'd have a lot of passion about that,
5:30
you know, you Oh, no doubt. Anywhere else,
5:32
that you it'd be absolutely. Like an objective
5:35
step up, you know? Mh.
5:37
I send him the casey's neck of the
5:38
woods to get something from a boardwalk.
5:40
It's
5:48
Yep.
5:49
Nice. Jean gene. What's yours? You did hold
5:51
up the sign. Unfortunately, this...
5:54
Most of the audience is gonna be audio
5:56
only. So he wrote get a taylor ham,
5:58
egg and cheese sandwich on.
6:00
Kangaroo roll. And more pork roll depending on
6:03
where you are in the state.
6:06
At That's our using pork crawl.
6:10
A p we called, pork egg and cheese.
6:14
I like it.
6:15
I like it.
6:17
Absolutely. It's so funny. I I grew up
6:19
in New Jersey. I it wasn't until college
6:22
that I even heard.
6:24
First of all, it wasn't until college that
6:26
I had my first sandwich that was pork
6:28
roll or Taylor ham, whatever you wanna call
6:30
it. I want. And then I don't even
6:32
think, like, I knew there was, like, debate
6:35
over this until a couple years after that.
6:37
So... Yeah. I can't believe that. I think
6:40
I had pork is probably like my first
6:41
food. That's I guess Very particular, in know
6:45
very your first move. So I think grounded
6:47
up into the baby formula or whatever. Like...
6:49
The little jerks. It's like mandatory. Or... Nothing
6:52
more New Jersey than that. Like, taylor ham,
6:55
pork roll,
6:57
baby food.
6:59
It's part it's part of your questions you
7:01
asked actually me get your license case it's
7:02
just jersey but sure.
7:04
Okay. Take have been pork role. I don't
7:06
think you need a hundred percent to get
7:08
the license there.
7:09
You can get a couple of them wrong.
7:12
I'd Oh, my gosh. I know it well
7:14
just before I move all my daughter had
7:15
a an internship at Disney world. So she
7:18
was in Orlando for, you know, half a
7:19
the year. And all they had was Cc,
7:22
pizza, like the Cc buffet or little Caesar's.
7:25
And as soon as she got off the
7:27
plane before she got home, We go to
7:29
place Mauricio. It's our local pizza oil. She's
7:31
like, we go to Mauricio first. It's all
7:33
I've been thinking about.
7:36
Pizza man
7:39
As Park.
7:41
So that's on the beach. That's, like, on
7:43
the shore.
7:46
Well.
7:48
But alright. So, like, I don't know if
7:49
you guys are running and dive into some,
7:51
getting to know you questions. We can warm
7:53
up for
7:54
for podcast.
7:56
So... Yes.
8:01
Both.
8:02
Are there are some people who only hear
8:03
us and some people will see both. Mh.
8:07
No. We'll be on Youtube for the for
8:09
the fans.
8:12
Everybody wants to see Casey. Oh, yeah.
8:14
Everyone see, everybody.
8:17
So... Oh, okay. That... I'd love to ask
8:20
this question.
8:21
The answer is are always so different. What
8:22
was your favorite Tv show growing up?
8:27
It's a good 1.
8:30
Will start with you. Yeah.
8:40
Marks like 19 83 to 19 86 was
8:42
there. 19 86 to 19 89 was the
9:00
Oh,
9:02
Hello I guess the Rock files... So we
9:05
would watch that in Manic if I that,
9:08
Maddox.
9:15
Oh, Get. Rock for file... Rocker files,
9:18
they have a a channel Me Tv? I
9:20
don't know if you have that, but they
9:22
had heart to heart on. I if you
9:24
remember parts of heart, Robert Wagner?
9:27
I recently. I would watch them at night.
9:29
It's bed, and I watched the whole series
9:31
and it started to loop, and I was
9:32
like oh my gosh. I've seen every episode
9:34
of heart to heart.
9:38
Prices right was a favorite for me. I'm
9:40
saved by the bill. Same bell Hit by
9:42
the bell free.
9:46
Just a little... I watched basically everything. Like,
9:49
there was nothing I didn't watch. I don't
9:51
know.
9:52
Wonder years. Oh, God. We're going back. Years.
9:56
Oh, the wonder just some good.
10:09
Smoking like true partnership right there. Gotta take
10:11
a shot with when you can.
10:13
Well, my mom was... My mom had 6
10:16
brothers and sisters, and she talked about when.
10:18
Las would come on the Tv. They will
10:21
fight each other to see who could shake
10:22
his paw on the Tv. We guess the
10:25
lord pretend to shake his paw. Remember last.
10:27
Wow.
10:30
Wow.
10:33
Well, that's it. But, yeah. They're of a
10:36
friend might my cousin when she went to
10:39
school, she went away to school. And so,
10:40
you know, at first when you go away.
10:42
It takes a little while to make friends.
10:43
So she loved the show, and she'd always
10:45
be like, they're my friends.
10:47
It's so funny. I I saw this thing
10:49
on Youtube. They took the laugh track out
10:51
of friends,
10:52
and it was so... I mean, I'm sure
10:54
this would be, like, any show you take
10:56
the laugh track out of, but it was
10:57
just so cringe worthy. Like,
11:01
so every time,
11:04
Well, no. They... So it was a live
11:06
audience, I guess, but these... I don't know
11:08
if they used Ai or something, but they
11:10
every time the audience would laugh. That was
11:12
just removed and it was, you know, just
11:14
the the ambient being sound in the room,
11:16
and it was so bad. You know, like,
11:18
I guess, when they tell you, like, this
11:20
is funny laugh, you know, it's
11:23
it makes it, like, easier to flow along
11:26
with, but I I don't know. It was
11:27
bad. It was really bad. Contagious.
11:30
Oh, yeah.
11:32
Yeah. Google. I'm I'm sure they've done it
11:34
with a lot of shows, but friends in
11:36
particular, because there are a lot of people
11:38
who will tell you maybe, like friends was
11:40
almost never funny, and it was just, you
11:42
know, we were we were conditioned to think
11:44
that. But I don't know. It was never
11:46
my show growing upside. I couldn't tell you.
11:50
I felt was good. So I felt you
11:52
were laughing regardless. Yeah. I felt is still
11:54
funny.
11:55
Yeah.
12:02
Oh, my god.
12:07
Yeah.
12:12
Oh, we were just at a wedding last
12:13

12:15

16:16
Well,
16:17
well,
16:26
Yeah.
16:45
Wait before we go on to the other
16:47
product I did wanna ask a quick follow
16:48
ups. So how how are they
16:50
strength wise? Like, do they hold up? You
16:52
know, maybe the same as, like, a a
16:54
plastic bag would?
16:56
Actually
17:10
Oh, wow.
17:12
Well, it's fantastic.
17:34
So so so they're strong enough to hold
17:36
my gallons of milk that used to rip
17:37
on me from the group. Start before they...
17:39
Before they banned the
18:11
Right. Yeah.
18:39
Oh, so
18:58
Yeah. I was wondering what that was made,
19:00
Adam because I... Because when you go to
19:02
shop or where a grocery store wherever, and
19:04
they have those for 33 cents, those your
19:07
reusable bags like that. I was, like, what
19:10
is this? Is it plastic and it feels
19:12
so weird?
19:13
How
19:14
Wow.
21:06
Well
21:18
Wow? Good to know. That is good to
21:20
know.
21:26
Oh, I'm enjoy. This is kinda like magic.
21:28
Like, I wanna know
21:30
I don't want visual secret sauce formula.
21:33
But, yeah. I I'd love to know, like,
21:35
how this gets made in the first place?
21:36
Like, how do you make a bag?
21:38
Our plants is crazy.
21:42
But
21:57
Yeah.
22:34
Gotcha.
23:03
Oh, wow.
23:05
Right.
23:17
Yeah.
23:27
So you said airbags are more like 6
23:29
months. Is that whatever I?
24:36
Yeah. I was gonna ask. What what would
24:38
happen if I just if I took 1
24:39
of these bags and just left it my
24:42
my garage
24:43
for
24:44
a, a year. It would just be gone
24:46
after the year. No. Okay.
25:04
Right. Yeah.
25:28
Okay.
25:31
Wow. Wow Wow. Oh, interesting.
25:42
I'll be looking for some recipes to share.
25:45
Hey. 1 thing I know is compulsory.
25:48
Compost compulsive needs to be in the title.
25:49
III has to be in the title somehow
25:51
no.
25:52
You got it.
26:09
Okay.
26:17
And not harmful. That's good because then that
26:19
means that if I, you know, like, let's
26:20
say I got a bunch of these and
26:22
I just hadn't gotten around to using all
26:23
of them yet. It doesn't mean that, like,
26:25
they just disintegrate by the time I get
26:27
a chance to use it. That's great.
26:32
Okay.
26:40
Wow.
27:18
Mh. Yeah.
27:31
That
27:33
g.
27:34
Oh, good. Now Was just gonna say that,
27:35
you know,
27:37
the... When I was in... I was in
27:38
the London not long ago, and I noticed
27:40
there so many more things were made of
27:41
glass. And I feel like everything
27:43
is made of plastic. This just... For example,
27:47
salad dressing we always got. Was always in
27:49
these cool glass bottles. And just last week,
27:52
we went to buy it, and it was
27:53
in plastic.
27:54
And it just drove me nuts. Like every...
27:56
You know, it's just over. We know it's
27:58
terrible
27:59
why they persist on making these things of
28:01
plastic.
28:41
Perfect timing.
29:06
Oh,
29:17
Yeah. Oh, I know. Wasn't reading about that.
29:21
Mh.
29:35
Well.
29:57
Yeah.
30:15
I wouldn't
30:19
No. It's fantastic. I mean, it it's and
30:21
it's absolutely necessary like you were saying. It's
30:23
it's said, but I was blown away when
30:24
I went...
30:26
To Europe, and I guess I just didn't
30:28
pay attention to it before. Because I've been
30:29
there, but it just struck me that I
30:32
was like, there's there's
30:33
There are fewer things made with plastic. I
30:35
feel like everything they plastic go over here.
30:37
And I just noted it. And so that's
30:39
interesting.
30:41
I I was at a shopping mall, and
30:43
I saw, you know, they... I had, like,
30:45
a a plastic bottle, you know, that I
30:47
was drinking. And
30:49
I go to recycle it, and they had...
30:51
It was like a a trash bin, and
30:53
there were holes. And 1 side of it
30:55
was trash and the other side was recycling.
30:57
And I threw it in. And I guess
30:59
I threw it in just like, way too
31:01
strong at just the right angle that it
31:03
went in 1 side and out the other.
31:05
And so I picked it up and I
31:07
go over and I look in and sure
31:08
enough, Both sides are just going into the
31:11
same trash can. I was like, you've gotta
31:14
be kidding.
31:15
This 1 of those moments were use see
31:16
the world for what it really is, and
31:18
I was talking depressed.
31:21
The veil back.
31:25
See
31:29
Yeah. Yeah. I've seen that. Right. I've seen
31:32
that.
31:49
Oh, yeah. Exactly. I know I watched... Happened
31:52
to.
31:53
And
31:54
an Npr when they started to talk about
31:55
this couple years ago. And, how we have
31:58
very few recycling facilities
32:01
in the country, mainly, it seems like we've
32:02
recycled 10 more than anything with plastics.
32:05
Is just off the charts. We were just
32:07
the wool was was over our eyes. Mh.
32:16
Right. Right.
32:17
Then can I ask your question?
32:19
Yeah. Go ahead.
32:29
Or you can't, you can't consciously not do
32:31
it. Yeah.
32:36
Wait, Randy was gonna ask question first. Then
32:38
I'll get to the other product. Just it's
32:39
just I'm curious here. So
32:42
it's to Gina Mark.
32:44
You guys are based in Jersey? But, I
32:45
mean, is... Are these bags readily available throughout
32:48
the country throughout, you know, globally? Like,
32:50
I and, again... Obviously, I'm... Don't want the
32:52
business, you know, plan, but know, how far
32:55
reaching are these available to Ta folks or,
32:56
you know are we kinda still launching or
32:57
branch branching that up?
33:02
You
33:04
Okay.
33:08
Well.
33:20
Okay.
33:56
Oh, I hate those. Yes, sir.
34:00
It's melted before. I'm even done with the
34:02
drink. Dna
34:03
start straw. I love using his straw, and
34:06
I don't like the paper straws. Yeah. I
34:08
feel like, a terrible person if you clause.
34:10
I don't you can't even find them anymore.
34:19
Now you have the the plant based
34:22
material Does that change the taste of the...
34:24
Like, can I taste your straw in the
34:26
drink?
34:27
Yeah. This tastes like a plastic free straw.
34:32
This might actually
34:35
this might actually run into the question of,
34:37
like, what are your other products? But
34:39
what is the the model in terms of,
34:42
like, like, I as a consumer, I'm not
34:44
generally buying plastic bags. I would guess the
34:46
goal would be to get these into, like
34:48
a... A supermarket or something. Well, what's what's
34:51
kinda like the goal there? And then, you
34:53
know, you can talk about some of your
34:54
other products too because I'm sure some of
34:56
those really are sold directly to the consumer.
35:10
Play better than the big ones. Oh, I
35:12
like it already, Mark. Mh.
36:01
You should write in big bold letters right
36:03
on the bag. This is not plastic.
36:05
Guess said something up that I thought said
36:07
it.
36:41
I'm saying 300 point font. This is not
36:44
plastic. Hey yeah. And then you can put
36:46
the rest of the story in smaller type
36:48
underneath that. But yeah Hey, Vin. They they
36:50
bring 1 of those factories over back across
36:52
over here to Jersey. Week we can we
36:53
can might be able to...
36:55
Absolutely. Absolutely. I just see free ground sign.
36:58
I would love to go to the store
36:59
and not have to bring my giant bags.
37:02
Likewise. That in the strap breaks that happened
37:04
to me the other day. I had 1
37:05
of my here.
37:06
Recyclable, you know, what those those bags you
37:08
have to bring, and I had all my
37:10
juice and it just the strap broke and
37:12
I...
37:13
Well, I like Jeans point because Jean said
37:15
earlier right? We got rid of the plastic
37:17
bags for for the bigger bags that have
37:19
more plastic in them. And it made me
37:21
think up during Covid when you weren't allowed
37:23
to go on the rest. Restaurants. But if
37:24
you ate outside an a tent, then it
37:27
was like that was a, you know, that
37:28
was okay. Like... So
37:52
Oh,
37:53
it's an awfully specific 1. Yeah. It's odd.
38:15
I like Mark's point. Just grab a handful
38:17
of them, stick them in your pocket, dude,
38:19
and you're just on. Because, I mean, From
38:20
truth to be told. I forget most of
38:22
my reusable, the bigger bags anyway and have
38:24
to loaded in the car in that whole
38:26
process. Let me stick them in my pocket.
38:28
Yeah
38:29
Yeah. Well, you re buy them. Now you
38:30
have a hundred. You have ridiculous amount. A
38:32
ridiculous amount of recyclable bags, and I tried
38:35
to give the web everybody has a ridiculous
38:38
amount of these bags.
38:40
A
38:47
Exactly.
39:00
Right. This is only our sixth episode, and
39:03
I wanna say this is at least the
39:04
second time we're railing on this.
39:07
So
39:08
this is obviously a hot button issue. If
39:10
if you're are part of the New Jersey
39:12
legislature, come up with an answer, do better.
39:15
Tell me about some of the other products
39:16
though.
39:22
Okay.
39:46
I feel bad for the the microorganisms
39:48
that are eating that 1, but
39:51
But you love it?
39:54
Okay. They know when to stop. Yeah
40:53
Not yet.
40:54
Not yet.
41:16
Right.
41:19
Absolutely.
41:35
Yeah.
41:53
Look right.
41:58
Mh
42:25
Yeah.
44:33
Well,
45:15
Yeah.
45:21
And I feel like that's why America's behind
45:23
the rest of the world. You know? We
45:25
just... We... We don't wanna... We're so stuck
45:26
in our ways. Like, it's like, we don't
45:28
wanna do anything outside of the the normal
45:30
path. But, yeah, I love that, you know,
45:33
everything you're doing is just the same. They...
45:35
That compose bag that's awesome. I... We would
45:38
compost and I have a lot of friends
45:39
that do it, and
45:40
that's... It's kind of just a... Pain and
45:43
deal with. Like, that then makes it so
45:44
much easier. You know? I not friends we,
45:46
you either have your, like, compost disposable, like,
45:48
bin or bowl or whatever, because it's not
45:50
like, a regular garbage,
45:52
it's, you know, it's totally different, and that
45:54
makes it feel more like, you know, more
45:56
like a garbage and you can't put it
45:57
away. And then throw the whole thing in.
46:00
It's awesome.
46:13
Awesome.
46:29
Sure.
46:29
Of course.
46:31
That's a give it.
46:40
I've never made that mistake of my life.
47:07
Mh.
47:54
Wow.
47:59
Well,
48:11
Oh, and you feel terrible. You hate to
48:13
use it.
48:19
Can your plastic ware cut through a watermelon
48:21
mount? That's the question,
48:23
like,
48:27
Go
48:29
Should be like 1 of those Youtube sensations
48:31
would be like, it's.
48:32
Yeah.
48:34
Can it cut?
49:08
Well, as it should be.
49:11
Oh, that... I mean,
49:12
absolutely Do we we just had...
49:15
I understand, we just threw,
49:17
a a prom. I had a 19 eighties
49:19
theme prom for my birthday. And we had
49:22
all this plastic wear. Right? Because we had
49:24
all these people, and we had the plates
49:26
and we're
49:27
fairly conscious. But, like, you hate... We were
49:29
like, what are we gonna? We're not gonna
49:30
wash all these forks. We had to use
49:33
it. We rarely do.
49:35
But you feel terrible in using. And that
49:37
is I mean, I'm sure it be the
49:39
talk of many things. Everybody who uses it,
49:41
uses it because you feel like you kind
49:43
of have to, but everybody hates these because
49:45
we know it's terrible.
49:59
Right.
50:02
You gotta start of everything. It was, like
50:04
the entire process.
50:11
Well.
50:29
