This week’s guest is Paulie Gee, best known for being a Yankee fan and his extensive collection of home videos. Additionally, he owns and operates Paulie Gee’s and Paulie Gee’s Slice Shop, both located in the Greenpoint section of Brooklyn, NY.
Here’s some of what we discussed: (3:34) where do those great pie names come from?, (10:12) when he realized he had to change his life, (15:06) the Connecticut white clam pie you really should be stopping for, (20:35) will he be expanding his menu outside of pizza?, (23:10) the secret to who gets to test his new pies before they make the menu, (29:35) what does Paulie Gee cook at home? (including an AWESOME bacon and butter tomato sauce recipe), (36:10) the prohibitive P’s, what can and can’t go on a pie, (39:13) what sandwiches you should actually be eating when you go to Philly, (48:58) the importance of connecting with his customers, (58:01) and his Holy Shit moments, including those times when Owen Wilson and Paul Giamatti came in.
