Everyone knows the Cheech & Chong name. Almost no one understands the infrastructure behind it. This isn't a celebrity brand story. It's a leverage story inside a fragmented, state-locked cannabis market that could shift overnight.

What if the best startup isn't sexy at all? In 2013, Vijen Patel left private equity to pursue “the least-worst idea”: dry cleaning. No patents. No app wizardry. Just laundry lockers in high-rises, ruthless unit economics, and a $1.99-a-shirt price that was seared into America's brain.From bootstrapping routes at 5 a.m. to breaking even in 6 weeks, Vijen and co-founder Drew McKenna scaled Pressbox to hundreds of locations, stared down well-funded competitors, and ultimately sold to Procter & Gamble, where Pressbox became Tide Cleaners (now ~1,200 locations).

It started with a softball game and a dream to become fathers. In this heart-opening episode of A Fresh Story, we sit down with Danny Auld and David Fullner, a couple whose love story spans over two decades—and whose journey into parenthood required courage, creativity, and a cross-country dash to a Honolulu delivery room. What began with a lighthearted “Would you be our surrogate?” turned into a lifelong bond with Auntie Dian, the woman who carried their son Paul into the world eight weeks early and gifted them a family.But this story isn't just about how Paul came to be—it's about what came after: a multi-generational household filled with love, a Kickstarter dream turned national brand, and a baby food company that's as much about flavor and cultural inclusion as it is about nutrition. Kekoa Foods was born from their kitchen and their deep desire to raise an adventurous eater—and the result is a product line now gracing shelves at Sprouts, Wegmans, and Amazon.Danny and David open up about what it really means to build a life together—from marriage under a tree at a Connecticut rest stop, to NICU night shifts, to launching a business during the pandemic. Their story is one of radical love, intentional parenting, and the everyday magic of showing up for your dreams (and your people). This episode is for anyone who's ever asked themselves: “Can I really do this?” Because the answer, as Danny and David prove, is yes. And you just might find your family—and your future—in the most unexpected of places.Snag some Kekoa for 25% off at THIS LINK with code FS25! And check out our review of Kekoa foods HERE.

Starting in 2010 as a series of local events in Chicago, Lindsay grew the company into a national brand working with major retailers like Target and Nordstrom, reaching millions of parents monthly.
