00:00There's a place called Delaware Avenue. It was right on the water and it's right downtown.

00:05And, you know, I was from the suburbs, but I would get a job at the first place was Rock Lobster, like the fancy, dancy, preppy place.

00:12Yo, man, they fired me for cutting a piece of cheesecake too big. You know what a trapezoid is, right?

00:17It was crazy. But listen, it's Nate and his girlfriend. Let's hook them up.

00:22But no, I got fired. And so Frankie, who was sitting at the bar, goes, Richie, come over here.

00:28I'm going to hire you at the Aztec Club in Kokomo Bay.

00:31It was a combo joint from a hardcore Philly discotheque to like some waterfall tropical scene in the middle of Philadelphia.

00:40And those are the best two summers of my entire life.

00:44You had to go around and literally meet 100 people a night and get them a drink.

00:48So you mastered the introduction. You started doing muscle memory for names or for orders and stuff.

00:53And it wasn't like some sort of thing where you're just hustling a table. That's boring.

00:58I was really working rooms. And so what fun jobs you could have in ways that are so interpersonal and interactive before the cell phone.

01:08And so I was doing this in the summer of 93 and 94, the best.

01:13And so that's what your buddy was doing back in the day, just honing those skills and feeling good about myself.

01:20So when it was time to represent our country somewhere else in the world, maybe we could do it in the best light.

01:28Good. We need all the good representation everywhere in the world now.
