In the aftermath of troubling recent violence, this episode sees Ivan Vejvoda host Ilir Deda for a discussion of the uncertain future facing the Western Balkans as the complex Serbian/Kosovan relationship hangs in the balance. Making a strong case for a robust and immediate diplomatic effort to ensure that the agreement reached in March is implemented quickly, Deda runs through the obstacles to progress and discusses the roles of the EU, the US and NATO in stabilizing the region and preventing any escalation of tensions, then examines the hopeful possibilities that have come with cooperation efforts, initiatives and moves toward a common regional market with freer movement and greater integration.Ilir Deda is an expert on Kosovo's governance, security, and foreign affairs with over a decade of experience in public service and policy research. He has held roles including Member of Parliament, Executive Director of the Kosovar Institute for Policy Research and Development, political advisor to Kosovo's Prime Minister, analyst for the International Crisis Group and Senior Expert on Human Capital Development at the Regional Cooperation Council.

Our producer Wojciech has a theory that Central and Eastern Europe, in their broadest sense, share a common trait - they do not tolerate emptiness. Any deficit or shortage is promptly filled by individuals who have come to realize that they cannot always depend on their states to provide essential services. This is precisely the theme of our interview this week, with Ilir Gashi, who shares his story of getting involved in an unofficial courier system between Kosovo and Serbia when the state postal office ceased its deliveries. Against the backdrop of recent tensions between these countries flaring up once again, it provides a poignant glimpse into the daily life on the border of these nations. We're also talking about Greece's new left-ish leader Stefanos Kasselakis (and his good-looking dog) and Spain's dealings with its gruesome past under the infamous General Franco.  This is our first episode of the autumn season and we'll stay with you until the end of the year!

Ilir Sela is the Founder and CEO of Slice, the all-in-one ordering and marketing tech platform for local pizzerias. Through its partnerships, Slice has driven over $1B in earnings for over 18,000 independent pizzerias nationwide. Fun fact, Slice is also one of the largest employers in Macedonia and at one point, employed so many people there, they had to start their own school to train more people. Before Slice, Ilir started Nerd Force and sold it in 2008. Huge thanks to Jeff Richards (GGV) and Ben Sun (Primary) for some amazing questions today. In Today's Discussion with Ilir Sela We Discuss: 1. From Macedonia to the Bright Lights of NYC and Bentley Buying: How Ilir made his way into the world of startups having grown up in Macedonia? How did his less affluent upbringing impact his approach to company building? How does Ilir think about the importance of money? How did he come to buy a Bentley? What does Ilir know now that he wishes he had known when he started? 2. Why Bootstrapped Was Best & The Decision to Fundraise: Why did Ilir scale the business to $4M in revenue without ever fundraising? What does Ilir believe are the benefits of scaling businesses with less money? What would Ilir have done differently had he raised money earlier? What advice does Ilir have for founders who see competitors raising more money than them? 3. Why Delegation is BS and Your Upbringing F***** You Up: Why does Ilir believe that much of our upbringing can instill principles which make us a worse leader? Why does Ilir believe it is BS to hire great people and get out of the way? What are the single biggest mistakes Ilir sees founders make in company scaling? What have been some of Ilir's biggest lessons in talent acquisition? 4. Decision-Making 101: How does Ilir analyze his decision-making framework today? Where does he need to improve as a leader today? What does he need to do to get there? What has been the single best decision he made with Slice? What did he learn from it? What has been the worst decision he has made in the scaling process? How did that change his mindset?

In my late teens and early 20s I was obsessed with beaches. I had always liked them, we all do, but I think it was a trip to Thailand in 1989 that triggered the obsession. Being on Koh Phangan back then when there was barely any power on the island - you had to go to back to Koh Samui for the full moon parties - smoking joints, lounging about in hammocks, philosophising with my mates, talking about our futures, watching the world go by, swimming, snorkelling, playing endless games of frisbee and volleyball on the white sands as sunny days drifted into beautiful sunsets, is a time I will always cherish. After that trip, I used to endlessly contemplate beaches - didn't matter if they were tropical or Cornish, Mediterranean or in Bournemouth - they all have something to appreciate and enjoy. As a young writer trying to get stuff published, I wrote and wrote about them. Then, in 1996, The Beach was published. Alex Garland's debut novel caught a zeitgeist and took the world by storm, eventually becoming a film with Leonardo di Caprio. Anything beach related would now be copycat. Garland  owned the subject and I had to move on.I always wanted to end up on a tropical beach somewhere. I've left it a bit late, but the dream still lingers, though, like many a dream of my youth, it's somewhat faded.Today, generally speaking, the thought of a really crowded beach, packed with sardine holidaymakers, fills me with a certain amount of horror. It probably does you. I'd pick the Maldives over St Tropez pretty much any day of the week (even though I've never actually been to the Maldives). As for Bournemouth beach in a heatwave, I'll almost certainly pass.Subscribe to this eminent publication.A Free Market Success StoryThis week my two sons and I have come to Ksamil in the south of Albania for a boys' holiday. I put a post on Twitter - should we go to Bulgaria and the Black Sea or Kotor in Montenegro? Something Tom Winnifrith said persuaded me to come to Albania instead. I liked the idea of flying to Corfu and then getting the ferry across. And I heard the beaches were nice. We arrived after a journey that was a lot more drawn out than I would have liked, went for an early evening stroll and oh, how my heart sank. The beaches were probably the most crowded I have ever seen. Crap music blared out. You seem to have to hire sunbeds, which cost €25 - there are three of us, have I got to pay €75 a day just to get on the beach? Negativity prevailed.The following morning I spoke to Ilir, the extremely helpful proprietor of the 6 Milje hotel, where we are staying. “What do people normally do with their phones when they go swimming?” I asked him.“You have to understand, the beaches here are not like the beaches in Italy or Spain, public beaches, and maybe your stuff isn't safe,” he said. “Here in Albania nothing gets stolen”. I raised a doubtful eyebrow.“The beaches are privately owned,” he explained.He had said the magic words and my ears pricked up. “It means you have to pay, ha ha ha,” he laughed. “They want the money. But everything is taken care of.”I couldn't help myself. “Are you familiar with the Tragedy of the Commons?” I asked. “When everybody uses the resource but nobody looks after it, because nobody owns it. You see it in the oceans, in the common parts of social housing -”“Yes, yes,” he said dismissively.I don't know how these Albania beaches were procured in the first place. The way assets were seized after the fall of communism in Russia was not exactly salubrious. I expect something similar happened in Albania as communism went down here. Ilir agreed.“Probably,” he said. “But somebody has to pay,” he went on. “They made a big investment. Before Ksamil was just rocky. They brought in all the sand.”Beach replenishment is very expensive, my two sons then  told me with great authority. They had both studied it in geography. They went on to discuss whether it is beach replenishment or beach nourishment. I now approached my first day on an Albanian beach looking at things through a more optimistic (and biased) lens.Each stretch of beach does seem to be owned by a different business, often linked to a restaurant or bar nearby. The businesses are competing every day to fill their sun loungers, so each is trying to make its bit of beach as attractive as possible. The result is clean, well kept beaches with an enormous range of sun loungers - from premium sun loungers a yard from the sea with curtains around them for privacy and champagne service to bargain basement folding metal things at the back (not that bargain basement).  Whichever stretch of beach you go to, you are politely greeted by that section's “head of loungers”. He sorts out your umbrella, he asks you if there is anything else you need, he will keep an eye on your stuff. It turns out €20 for a pair of loungers plus an umbrella is about the going rate for the mid-range stuff. I'll pay that just to know my cash and phone are safe. (This remains, by the way, very much a cash economy - all hail Albania - both lek and euros are accepted).There are a gazillion bars, restaurants, stalls, as well as the occasional travelling fruit or recently-barbecued-corn-on-the-cob vendor. Some of the bars/restaurants/stalls are for the loaded (of which there are quite a few - I think this place might be Albania's answer to St Tropez: there are a lot of glamorous, beautiful people) others are for the skint or the stingy. Some play loud music, others are quite mellow and quiet. The stretch of water in front of each beach is filled with enticing things to do. There are diving boards, paddle boards, luxurious floating rafts with sun loungers, one stretch of beach has lanes laid out like an Olympic swimming pool so people can train, there are masks and snorkels for hire, pedalos, pedalo taxis that will take you out to the nearby islands and rafts if you don't want to get wet. The swimming areas are clearly marked by buoys, so that boats and jet skis pose no risk to swimmers. There is even an entire floating, inflatable water slide assault course thing. Sounds horrendous, but I defy you, if you are an eleven-year-old boy, not to absolutely love it. Couples are catered for. The old are catered for. Young families are catered for. The water is lovely.This might not be the remote Maldives eco experience. I don't think I have ever in my life seen such crowded beaches, except perhaps at midnight on New Year's Eve in Rio de Janeiro on the Copacabana. The circumstances there were slightly different. Environmentalists will probably hate it. It is highly developed. It is not the wild and desolate beach many might hope for. But it is providing a lot of pleasure to a lot of people, using a minimum amount of space, while providing opportunities to a lot of other people, making them prosperous and lifting living standards. The locals here work extremely hard - they are very ambitious. In my hotel, the staff are still working when I go to bed at 11 and when I am up the next morning at 7 the same staff are already laying out breakfast. There are tourists here from Albania itself. There are lots of Italians, very few from Greece, quite a few from the UK, France, Scandinavia and Germany.  I've heard a lot of Eastern European accents that I cannot place. It's a real hotspot and it is booming.In short, it's an example of a free market at work, private property rights, the benefits of competition, and all those things that libertarians such as myself advocate for.It's cheaper than the UK, but not as cheap as you might expect Albania to be. This holiday is going to cost me a lot more than I anticipated. When I complained about the cost of aftersun, the woman in the shop snapped back at me quite articulately telling me that the people here only have two months a year to make money. I have all that other time. My sons, meanwhile, whose finger is on the pulse in a way that mine is not, told me that my ideas of prices are way out of date. I guess that's inflation for you.“How corrupt is it?” I asked Ilir. “Sometimes people come to the hotel asking for protection money, but we always make sure they don't come on the property. In your country maybe you have a straight line between what you can and cannot do. In Albania the line is very squiggly.”I am sure there are villainous types, who don't deserve it, who are making fortunes out of this incredibly vibrant economy. Villainous they may or may not be, but they were also entrepreneurial. I am sure there are many things that people who know more about the history of Southern Albania than me could find fault with. It is not perfect. Nothing is.

Ilir Sela is the co-founder and CEO of Slice. His problem: How do you bring the technological revolution to thousands of tiny mom and pop pizza shops?

Join us as Ilir T. from Wyoming,  DE, shares his experience, strength and hope around today's Daily Reflection, Righting the Harm. RIGHTING THE HARMIn many instances we shall find that though the harm done others has not been great, the emotional harm we have done ourselves has.— TWELVE STEPS AND TWELVE TRADITIONS, p. 79Have you ever thought that the harm you did a business associate, or perhaps a family member, was so slight that it really didn't deserve an apology because they probably wouldn't remember it anyway? If that person, and the wrong done to him, keeps coming to mind, time and again, causing an uneasy or perhaps guilty feeling, then I put that person's name at the top of my "amends list," and become willing to make a sincere apology, knowing I will feel calm and relaxed about that person once this very important part of my recovery is accomplished.

There are fewer than seven women running pizzerias in New York City, and there's only one who started hers as a speakeasy out of her apartment. Miriam Weiskind's gone from creative director to pop-up pizzaiola over the last two years. In this episode, Ilir and Miriam cover the most important part of the pizza-making process, how she got her start during the pandemic, and pizza's gender gap.Tune in to hear the reason she puts frogs on her merch, how many pizzas she gave away to first-responders, and why this career was destined from the start.

This episode is more of a conversation between two old friends than it is an interview! Johnny Pavlik sits down with Ilir from his home in North Carolina to talk about growing his business from one Johnny's Pizzeria to four, with a food truck pulling in soon. From his struggle with addiction to his community-focused social media presence, Johnny shares his secrets to double average orders and more…Tune in to hear what a true Slice partnership can do for a business looking to go digital, why digital is the future, and what a strategic menu can do for your bottom line.

In an epic conversation about chasing authenticity in expression and products, Ilir sits down with LA's pizza renaissance man: Brandon Gray of Brandoni Pepperoni. From his time cheffing in the Navy to starting his own business in 2020, Brandon is about dedication to craft, learning by trying, and the Clippers.Listen in to hear why the details count, where Brandon's Ratatoullie moment happens, and what makes his tomato sauce so tasty. 

Hakki Akdeniz is more than a world championship pizza acrobat — he's independent pizza's most inspiring person. He came to the United States from Turkey with nothing but suitcases, and now has a slew of pizzerias and extraordinary dedication to his community. Ilir and Hakki sit down in our studio to talk about business and pizza but end up covering what it means to never give up.Listen in to hear how many times Hakki had to hit restart before making it to where he stands now: happily helping others through independent pizza.

For our first-ever episode of How You Slice It, Ilir meets with Scott Wiener, founder of Scott's Pizza Tours and Slice Out Hunger. In our very own pizzeria booth, they discuss starting a business inside a school bus, uncover the connection between taste and location, and celebrate pizza's power for good through programs like Slice Out Hunger. Have a listen to learn Scott's vote for most homiest pizzeria and to finally settle the debate about NYC pizza's (alleged) secret ingredient: tap water.

How will restaurant technology evolve over the next decade? We sit down with the founder of Slice, which supports 17,000 independent pizzerias across all 50 states.
