    Bear Degidio

    Our guest this week is Bear Degidio. This episode has been in the works for months, and we had a blast finally making it happen. We figured we might as well let the professional who wrote Bear's company website have center stage for this episode description: "His large influencer network and vast marketing experience led him to founding his own digital creative agency, Bear & Honey Group. With experience in direct to consumer marketing and branding, to successfully launching clothing brands in retailers nationwide, Bear’s best skills pertain to branding, marketing, and non-traditional roll outs. The focus of Bear & Honey Group is to create brand awareness, exposure, and social media traffic with the most unique campaigns, utilizing the most unique influencers across the country. With over 700 influencers, and over 750 million plus collective followers, Bear & Honey Group operates in a space of its own." As always, sit back, relax, and enjoy the show. #keepitlowkeepitloose

    Ross Savage - KRS Development

    Building $5,000,000 custom homes was not what Ross thought he would be doing as he prepared for the fire academy in his early twenties. Fast forward twenty years and Mr. Savage is the head General Contractor and owner of KRS Development right here in Newport Beach. If you've ever driven through Eastside Costa Mesa, Newport Heights, Dover Shores or CDM and gazed at a spectacular home, there's a good chance KRS built it. In this episode we ask Ross what he likes most about the building business, and he sheds some light on the stark contrast between "spec" builds for resale and custom builds for an end user. We really take a look under the hood of a massive industry you may not know much about.  If you've thought about hiring a builder for a custom home to live in or as an investment, the first thing to do is find the land to build on. At CGRE we can help you find the perfect property in Costa Mesa or Newport Beach to begin the process of building your dream home with Ross and his team at KRS Development! You can find more info on KRS by visiting their website at www. krsdevelopment.com and on Instagram @krsdevelopmentinc As always, sit back, relax and enjoy the show.

    Adam Chaudhary - Funding Shield

    We had our friend Adam on the show right before Covid-19 hit. We kept from publishing the episode due to our attempt at putting out episodes that pertained to what we were all going through with regards to the quarantine.  Now that things have "normalized" a little bit we feel it's a better time to post this episode all about Adam and his new venture with Funding Shield (especially since the real estate market is on fire right now). Funding Shield is a FinTech B2B and B2B2C solution that delivers transaction level coverage against wire and title fraud, settlement risk, closing agent compliance and cyber threats while reducing operating costs and improving asset quality. We recently had Adam and his wife, Sara, over for dinner, and he gave us an update on how business is going since we recorded this episode. Funding Shield has done 4x their revenue over the last 6 months! We are very happy for them and excited for their future and continued success! You can follow Adam on Instagram @adamjchaudhary and for more info on wire fraud prevention check out www.fundingshield.com As always, sit back, relax and enjoy the show!

    Mike Shapiro Part II

    Mike Shapiro, real estate, finance and tech guru, is back for a very overdue part II. If you haven't listened to part I make sure to go listen to Mike on episode 3.  This episode is all about what Mike has been up to since the last time we had him on the show. Since then, Mike has pivoted to the tech world, and is a part of a real estate tech startup with some big hitters from Silicon Valley.  Per usual, we learned a ton during this recording, and we think you will too.  Sit back, relax and enjoy the show!

    Modern Charcuterie

    Executive Chef Anthony and his wonderful wife, Nancy are our special guests on the show for episode 25! Their story is inspiring. I don't want to give too much away, but long story short, Anthony was a corporate chef for 15 years until Covid hit. After Neiman Marcus closed their restaurant, Mariposa, Anthony and Nancy decided to forge a new path of entrepreneurship, and Modern Charcuterie was born. After 8 weeks delivering orders to their neighbors on the peninsula point, they have been booked out through October. If you like beautiful charcuterie boards curated by a culinary ninja, then you'll want to DM Nancy and Anthony on Instagram @Modern_Charcuterie to place your order today!  As always, sit back, relax and enjoy the show!

    Chad Towersey AKA Unkle Tito

    Whether you're a fan, or a hater, if you're a local, you've probably seen this week's guest on Instagram @ocinstanews. Cedric and I had never met Chad Towersey aka Unkle Tito before recording this episode. We both had our preconceptions about this local personality who always seems to find himself right in the middle of all the action when it comes to breaking news in Newport and Costa Mesa. We were both very eager to find out who the real man behind the character of Unkle Tito really was. Since this recording, Chad is sporting a new haircut and a newborn baby girl named River Emison Towersey. We really had a blast getting to know Chad on this episode. If you listen closely, and finish the episode to the very end, you may recognize his voice in our brand new intro to the show!  You can find Chad on Instagram @ocinstanews, and hopefully we'll soon be hearing his voice announcing fighters in MMA and boxing all over the country. As always, sit back, relax and enjoy the show!

    Keith Flores - Smart Choice/HVAC GOD

    Welcome to the first episode of the second generation of The CGTV Podcast! We have a brand new intro that we’re pretty hyped about. Recognize the voice? If you’ve been following the show from the beginning, our hope is that we can continue to bring our listeners value and entertainment. Today’s guest is Keith Flores, @HVACGOD on the gram, owner of Smart Choice Heating and Air. Fun fact: since recording this about a month ago, CGRE was able to get him and his family into a beautiful new home in the heart of Dover Shores in Newport Beach. Keith is building an extremely strong local brand in Newport and Costa Mesa through the use of social media advertising, and local influencer partnerships with Bear Degidio @beardegidio, Chad Towerdsey AKA Uncle Tito @ocinstanews and Ashley Flores @ashleyfloresfit, just to name a few. We talk about the struggle we share trying to build a digital brand, how frustrating partnerships can be when one side decides not to hold up their end of the bargain, whether or not you should wrap your vehicles with your logo and a whole lot more. If you or anyone you know needs a new HVAC system as the so cal summer heat sets in, Keith and his team at Smart Choice Heating and Air have you covered!
