Brooklinen: Vicki and Rich Fulop

Hey, really quick before we start the show, you've probably been hearing me talk about our new live video series we're doing on Facebook, and you can see old ones if you go to Facebook.com slash how I built this. Anyway, all this week we are focused entirely on Food. And every day starting Monday, April 20th through Friday, April 24th, I'll be hosting a live video chat with a different chef or restaurant owner each day to talk about how they're dealing with the current economic and health crisis. And our guests this week are amazing. We'll have Jose Andres. Christina Tosey of Milk Bar, Alice Waters, Semi Nusrat, and Michelin three star chefs Daniel Hom and Kyle Conatin. And they'll all talk about how they're using the power of food to help solve big problems, including the ones we're facing right now. Join me live every single day this week from April 20th to the 24th at noon eastern time on facebook.com slash. How I built this.

This is like amateur hour here. Like we had no barcodes on the boxes. So So you didn't even know it was in there. No, we would just tear open boxes and hope it w you know check to see it was the right size. and be climbing all over uh this whole room was filled essentially to the ceiling, like pecked to the gills with boxes and pallets. And we're literally climbing on top of these mountains of boxes, tearing them open and hoping that it's the right size and color in there. Um It was just a comedy of ours. Yeah. From NPR, it's how I built this, a show about innovators, entrepreneurs, idealists, and the stories behind the movements they built.

Guy Raz and on today's show How what happened in Vegas did not stay in Vegas when Rich and Vicky Fulup got inspired to sell high-end sheets and brew that idea into Brooklyn in. A one hundred million dollar brand. So a not insignificant number of stories we've told on this show started around the time of the great recession of 2008. And that's because lots of people couldn't find jobs, so they had to create their own.
