Jeannette talks to Andy Green, founder and Managing Director of Greens Construction, to uncover his journey from an unconventional school experience and carpentry apprentice to leading a multi-faceted construction powerhouse. Andy opens up about how leaning into his dyslexia shaped his unique approach to problem-solving, the pivotal shift from working on the tools to building a high-performing team, and the harsh realities of scaling overheads without losing sight of cash flow.  Packed with candid insights on navigating market downturns, managing client expectations, and staying grounded through tough personal and economic times, this conversation provides an essential roadmap for any ambitious business owner looking to grow with confidence and strategic clarity. You'll Learn Why: Focusing on product quality and core delivery first is far more critical than investing in branding and marketing before your service is proven. Scaling a construction business requires targeting higher-value projects to sustainably support the overhead of a dedicated management team and back-office staff. Delegating strengths and hiring complementary talent is essential when moving from an individual tradesperson to a business leader. Maintaining low overheads relative to turnover and diversifying your client base protects cash flow during severe economic disruptions. Whether you're a founder, CEO, small business owner, entrepreneur, startup leader or executive, these lessons will help you make smarter hiring decisions and build a stronger, more successful business.

The Mets took another series with a 4-2 win over the Padres and after the game Andy Green met with the media to breakdown a game which included a strong start from Robert Stock along with the team's continued hot stretch.

Andy Green talks to the media after the Mets 5-2 loss to the San Diego Padres on Tuesday night. Green discussed Zac Thornton's outing and AJ Ewing's recent struggles at the plate.

The Mets have another chance to take a post trade deadline series and ahead of the final game against the Padres Andy Green sat down with Keith Raad to discuss Jorge Polanco's move to the IL and his counterpart in the other dugout Craig Stammen.

The Mets are finally playing winning baseball, but Evan Roberts refuses to entertain the idea that they are suddenly back in the playoff race. Evan and Tiki Barber debate whether fans can enjoy the young talent, improved bullpen and recent surge without becoming delusional about October, with Evan insisting it would take a massive winning streak before that conversation even begins. The focus then shifts to Andy Green and whether the interim manager can make the decision harder for David Stearns. Stearns says the expectation remains that Green returns to the front office, but Evan hears enough wiggle room to believe a dominant finish could change the plan. Plus, the Yankees' Max Fried concerns continue, and their struggling offense faces more pressure to finally produce.

The Jets should be trying to win, not dreaming about draft position before the season even starts. Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber push back on the idea of rooting for losses, arguing that New York has enough offensive talent and future draft capital to prioritize progress now instead of another reset. Evan also brings the numbers behind his case for batting Aaron Judge leadoff, showing how many additional plate appearances the Yankees could create for their best hitter.

Max Fried is back on the injured list with the same elbow issue that already cost him nearly two months, and Evan Roberts has zero confidence the Yankees will see him pitch again this season. Evan and Tiki Barber debate whether Fried can realistically return for October, why Carlos Rodon suddenly carries even more pressure, and how the injury reinforces baseball's harshest lesson: you can never have enough pitching. The Yankees also face a difficult roster decision when Cody Bellinger returns, with Spencer Jones looking like the likely casualty. On the Mets side, Evan refuses to call their four-game winning streak a playoff push but is enjoying the young talent and looking toward 2027. Plus, David Stearns leaves the door cracked for Andy Green's managerial future, and the guys debate whether winning down the stretch could change the Mets' plans.

Evan Roberts and Shaun Morash debate whether Green's aggressive “play to win” mentality, combined with a strong finish, could turn an interim job into a legitimate managerial opportunity.
