Hi everyone, Happy Tuesday! This year, I dressed up as the Marshmallow Man for Halloween, so it's only fitting that I have Ernie Hudson on the show this week! Ernie famously played Winston Zeddmore in Ghostbusters. He has also appeared in many, many other projects, including films like The Crow, Airheads and Miss Congeniality and on TV on Oz, Grace and Frankie, LA's Finest and most recently as L. C. Duncan in The Family Business. It was such an honor to sit down with Ernie and we immediately got along. We talk about his childhood and the emotional moment last year when the street he grew up on was renamed in his honor. We also get into the inner strength he's developed riding the highs and lows of an almost 60 year (!) career in show business. There is so much we can all learn from Ernie and I hope you get as much out of this conversation as I did. If you want to hear more about Ernie and get updates on my own life, be sure to check out the Hindsight for this episode over on Patreon!

If you ask Omar Coffee CEO Nicolas Bokron how to run a successful, fourth-generation business, he'll tell you about the core values posted on the walls around his company. “Trust, not tricks” is one of them. “Generally, the coffee business is about on-going relationships, so it's very important to take care of issues and make them right,” Bokron said. “People need to trust and rely on you.” Bokron recently sat down to talk about all things coffee—and his family's always-evolving 88-year-old business—with first-time CBIA BizCast guest host Ari Santiago, well-known for his Made in America podcast series. Founded in 1937 by Bokron's great-grandfather John Costas, Omar Coffee started in Hartford's South End. Over the years, it gradually grew into a regional company that roasts raw coffee beans, then sells, packs and distributes them to customers throughout the Northeast and beyond. Omar also provides and services coffee brewing equipment for food service establishments. On the retail side, Omar sells its coffee online. “We'll give you everything you need to get set up and get brewing so you can sell coffee by the cup,” Bokron said. In line with its business culture and family values, Bokron says when it comes to hiring new employees, the first thing the company looks for is character. “If someone has the right attitude, shows up at the right time, day in and day out, and they're reliable, then we'll try to give them the appropriate skills, whether its manufacturing, sales, or service,” he said. The family's values and strong culture built on hard work and integrity run deep at Omar. “We're big believers of training from within,” he said. “There are people who work at Omar now whose parents worked for my grandfather. “They share the same connection and affinity to the business because it means more to them than just a job.” When it comes to keeping a family business evolving with the times—and staying competitive regardless of industry trends—Bokron said he's learned to maintain a long-term perspective. “My grandfather taught me you just sort of have to remain steady,” he said. “Good things are going to happen, and bad things are going to happen. “So I feel like it's my responsibility to take the information in, try to solve the problems, and remain cool, calm and collected. “I mean after all we're making coffee here. We have to remain steady because we have a long-term focus.” Related Links Omar Coffee Website: https://www.omarcoffee.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/omar-coffee-company/ Nicholas Bokron LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nicholas-bokron-09a0a823/ Made in America Podcast: https://www.youtube.com/c/MadeinAmericaPodcastwithAri Made in America Podcast LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/made-in-america-podcast-with-ari/ Ari Santiago LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/asantiago104/ CBIA Website: https://www.cbia.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/cbia/ The CBIA BizCast is made possible through the generous support of Google.

If you only know Emma Hernan from Selling Sunset, buckle up—because that's just part of her story. Emma isn't just a reality TV star and luxury real estate agent; she's a self-made business powerhouse who started investing in her family company as a teen and went on to build a vertically integrated food empire from scratch. In this episode, Emma opens up what it's really like running a family business, and why she believes in being her own rich boyfriend. Of course, we talk Selling Sunset too—how the show's fame reshaped her life, the financial realities behind filming, and the drama that's about to explode this season. Bonus: if you're watching on Spotify or YouTube, you'll spot her adorable dog trying (and succeeding) to steal the spotlight.
