Irony Is His Middle Name: Fitness and Pizza Guru Tommy Ardito Never Nine to Five

    • Documentary

Like many during the pandemic, Brooklyn gym owner Tommy Ardito discovered baking. Ever the entrepreneur, he was soon selling (via Instagram!) pizza from his apartment kitchen. Now known as the “Underground Pizza Boss,” Ardito is about to open a brick-and-mortar to share his artisanal slices citywide. We talked to him about his unstoppable drive and motivation, about fitness (he knows a lot), about the financial predicament facing Millennials, about surviving as a soloist, and, of course, we talk a lot about pizza.
