The episodes may not be coming as regularly as usual, but we're trying our best. Once again, from the bottom of our hearts, thank you.We're coming at ya with a new episode! Peach completed her 14th round of chemo right before a PACKED weekend. It was unfortunate timing, but you gotta live your life. Plus, Peach is one strong woman. If she puts her mind to something, she's gonna make it happen. In this packed weekend, we went to see New Found Glory, Yellowcard, and Plain White T's play a show in Asbury Park at The Stone Pony. Then we made a trip to Heavy Reel Brewing to help them celebrate their 8th Anniversary. There was beer, tattoos, and fun! We wrapped up the weekend by making a trip to north Jersey to Pandora's Toy Box to meet Mark Linn-Baker and Bronson Pinchot. You may know them better as Cousin Larry Appleton and Balki. Peach made cookies, Pumpkin got a burger from Wawa, and we grabbed some sandwiches at Capriotti's (It was Pumpkin's first time) There's no separate Beer Patch this week, but Pumpkin does discuss his weekend at NJ Horror Con a couple weeks back. All those things and more await you.

Progressive Real Estate Partners SVP Roxanne Klein on Southern California retail leasing, tenant trends, lease negotiation blind spots, and why not all franchisees are created equal. The Crexi Podcast connects commercial real estate (CRE) professionals with industry insights built for smart decision-making. In each episode, we explore the latest trends, innovations and opportunities shaping commercial real estate, because we believe knowledge should move at the speed of ambition and every conversation should empower professionals to act with greater clarity and confidence. Crexi Platinum Award-winner Roxy Klein spent 20-plus years building sales instincts running a candy manufacturing business across 30 states before finding her way into commercial brokerage. Today she is SVP of Retail Leasing and Sales at Progressive Real Estate Partners, the number one retail firm in the Inland Empire, specializing in landlord representation and leasing across Southern California. In this episode, Roxy joins host Yannis Papadakis on what is moving in SoCal retail, why footprints are shrinking, what CC&Rs and amperage issues are quietly killing deals, and why she backs a 20-year mom-and-pop over a franchise tenant with no business experience. Welcome to The Crexi Podcast Roxy Klein's background and path to Progressive Real Estate Partners From candy manufacturing and trade shows to commercial brokerage No playbook: learning retail CRE from a 35-year mentor Why retail: combining business, merchandising, and real estate The value of specializing at a firm that only does retail Boutique versus big shop: why entrepreneurial spirit matters Landlord rep versus tenant rep: why listing agreements mean security Watching retail go from dirt to grand opening Balancing prospecting: door-to-door, phone, social, in-person Why you have to walk into the store before you prospect it Building relationships with national brands through ACRE Independent pharmacies filling former Rite Aid boxes Head spas, beauty tenants, and the risk of over-broad use clauses Footprints are shrinking — and rent is the reason Car washes, drive-through ground leases, and demo opportunities Why drive-throughs dominate: convenience, speed, busy families Coffee is the hottest category — drive-through and independent Large full-service restaurants: very few players left Minimum wage, inflation, and which food tenants are on pause SoCal vacancy: low but rising, and the spaces dragging the number up Keep an open mind, respond fast, don't wait for a better offer CC&Rs blocking gyms, car washes, and entertainment Amperage: the deal killer nobody checks until it's too late Use clauses, exclusives, and inherited lease problems How lease renewals create waiver negotiating leverage Three things new retail brokers must know before their first assignment Rapid fire: $10M into a multi-tenant asset close to home How to spot a fad before it becomes your vacancy Don't get caught up in the franchise name — vet who's signing Parting words: stick with it, and call Roxy About Roxy Klein: Roxanne “Roxy” Klein is the Senior Vice President of Retail Leasing & Sales at Progressive Real Estate Partners, specializing in the leasing and sale of retail properties in Southern California's Western Inland Empire, Eastern San Gabriel Valley, and Northern Orange County.

Em sua juventude, me convidado praticou beisebol, basquete e voleibol. Natural de Osasco, município vizinho a cidade de São Paulo, ao visitar uma rádio local quando tinha 16 anos de idade, encantou-se com o ambiente e sonhou em falar ao microfone. Nessa rádio ele conseguiu um emprego de assistente de produção. No segundo grau, optou na época pelo curso técnico de patologia clínica e trabalhou no Bradesco. Prestou vestibular de medicina, mas acabou passando em comunicação, sua segunda opção, e há quase 41 anos ele vem se dedicando ao ofício. Depois, em uma em uma rádio de Sorocaba, como repórter de campo começou a cobrir o time de futebol da cidade e foi aí que passou a ter contato com o jornalismo esportivo. Em paralelo, para reforçar o orçamento, apresentava de um programa popular, era locutor da rádio Antena 1 e também atuava como disc jóquei, e acabou passando muitos anos da sua carreira cobrindo futebol, incluindo oito Copas do Mundo e três Olimpíadas. É sobrevivente de um trágico acidente de avião, que para ele marcou um renascimento. Em 1996, em virtude da pista molhada e do excesso de peso, o avião que transportava o time do Corinthians de volta ao Brasil depois de um jogo da Libertadores, abortou a decolagem no aeroporto de Quito, no Equador, e foi parar fora da pista. Ninguém perdeu a vida, felizmente, mas o susto foi enorme e a experiência ficou marcada para sempre em sua memória. Depois de mais de 10 anos sedentário, em 1999, ao migrar de repórter para apresentador âncora, iniciou sua trajetória na corrida de rua. No início, apenas caminhava para tratar suas varizes nas pernas, mas pouco tempo depois passou a trotar pelas ruas do bairro em que morava. Pegou gosto pela modalidade e em 2002 passou a treinar com orientação e desde então participou de mais de uma centena de provas, entre elas duas maratonas de Buenos Aires e uma sonhada Maratona de Nova Iorque, que correu em 2016 ao lado da esposa, Elisabete, para celebrar os 25 anos de casamento e o seu cinquentenário. Conosco aqui o apresentador e coordenador de Esportes no Grupo Bandeirantes de Comunicação, multi premiado jornalista esportivo com pós graduação em marketing, corredor maratonista que através de sua profissão acredita poder interferir positivamente na vida das pessoas, o idealizador do programa Fôlego, um dos podcasts mais ouvidos do Grupo Bandeirantes, e desde 2014 organizador da sua Capri Run, o grande Ricardo Tadeu Capriotti Sanches.
