Speaker 1: Go through your top five favorite cookie flavors that came
Speaker 1: from your store.
Speaker 2: I think if I had to choose one forever and
Speaker 2: I could only ever have it, it'd be chocolate chip walnut.
Speaker 3: Hate nuts, hate like nuts, but not in the dessert nuts.
Speaker 3: And for one, I'm like on a trail. And even then,
Speaker 3: I'm just eating the m and lashasha sho. It's Tuesday,
Speaker 3: the second day of the week. As we all know,
Speaker 3: on the second day, God created the sky. I on
Speaker 3: this second day put forth a new episode, and it
Speaker 3: was good man, welcome to Tosh Show. Huh, that's how
Speaker 3: you get it started, Eddie.
Speaker 4: It is how you get started. A little blessing.
Speaker 1: Let people know where we came from. We came from
Speaker 1: the bottom. Adam and Eve.
Speaker 4: Yep, right, they were there at the bottom.
Speaker 3: Who made you?
Speaker 5: I was God?
Speaker 3: What else did God make all things?
Speaker 4: Things that were around us?
Speaker 3: You never were forced to memorize the shorter Catechism? Nope?
Speaker 3: Oh boy, well, I'm in a sour mood. I know
Speaker 3: we're gonna get some feedback from the audience.
Speaker 4: Feedback, but here we got's hold on.
Speaker 1: Hold on, I'm not ready. I gotta mentally prepare for feedback.
Speaker 1: From our viewers and our listeners, subscribers, some.
Speaker 3: Of our fans. Are they subscribing? Not at record pace.
Speaker 1: I'm told if we don't get our subscriber numbers up,
Speaker 1: that means they stay the same. I'd like our subscriber
Speaker 1: numbers to go down. I'd like people to unsubscribe. See
Speaker 1: if we can get that number back to zero.
Speaker 3: Be sure to unsubscribe.
Speaker 1: I want to see if we can get our show
Speaker 1: up to five million subscribers, and then I want to
Speaker 1: do the show and take it down to zero.
Speaker 3: I don't know if it's possible.
Speaker 1: I don't know if anybody's ever accomplished that, got five
Speaker 1: million subscribers and then got it back down to zero,
Speaker 1: just through good old fashioned hate.
Speaker 3: Speaking of vitriol, let's hear from our fans.
Speaker 4: Here we go. I hate you, Daniel Tosh. How dare
Speaker 4: you advertise in the middle of the podcast?
Speaker 3: I feel you, buddy.
Speaker 1: You know my goal for this podcast, I've said this
Speaker 1: since day one, has always been to create a place
Speaker 1: for advertisers and consumers to just vibe.
Speaker 4: Next one, Tash's kid loves telling stories about Lake Tahoe.
Speaker 4: It's a total flex and he doesn't even know it.
Speaker 1: Now he knows it. Once someone asked my son in
Speaker 1: the jacuzzi. We were sitting in a jacuzzi, a public jacuzi.
Speaker 1: It was like a four seasons. They asked him if
Speaker 1: his jacuzzi at home was hotter than this, and he said,
Speaker 1: are you talking about Malibu or Tahoe?
Speaker 3: They just stand there like, uh, as my bougie boy,
Speaker 3: as my bougie boy.
Speaker 4: I feel like this show could be improved upon if
Speaker 4: he added another border or two.
Speaker 3: What are you the border patrol? I knew that the
Speaker 3: borders would be a game changer. The first big marketing
Speaker 3: meeting that we sat in right remember this, we were like,
Speaker 3: they kept pitching us all kinds of things to make
Speaker 3: the show stand out. And when that one team from
Speaker 3: San Francisco, from Silicon Valley just like, listen, it's just borders.
Speaker 3: All of our research is showing that if you make
Speaker 3: borders around your podcast, the sky's the limit. I'm glad
Speaker 3: we listened to them. We paid them, What do we
Speaker 3: plan for that first border? It was eighty five thousand
Speaker 3: dollars for the first version of the border. We said
Speaker 3: no to that one. Then we went a different firm.
Speaker 3: They actually charged us they charged us less thirty eight thousand,
Speaker 3: but gave us just a beautiful thick border. I hope
Speaker 3: it lives on forever.
Speaker 4: I wish your audio was more basy. I use headphones
Speaker 4: that amplify base, and this podcast sounds very flat and
Speaker 4: weird through them.
Speaker 1: Can't you just adjust the base on your end? You
Speaker 1: have to understand, I had Dylan back there. This guy
Speaker 1: can barely tell his left foot from his right, so
Speaker 1: give him an audio. Request has fallen on complete deaf ears.
Speaker 1: You might not even me rolling right now. There's a
Speaker 1: good chance this doesn't even air.
Speaker 4: When Eddie is giving his father's eulogy, Daniel should shout
Speaker 4: sonalos agus three times, test his commitment to the bit.
Speaker 3: All right, you spelled Shanale's agasts wrong first of all.
Speaker 3: Also Shenal's agusts everybody, Eddie, you're that that's technically you
Speaker 3: said the first one, so that doesn't count.
Speaker 4: No, you got me on a technicality by everybody.
Speaker 3: I hope, I hope, Eddie.
Speaker 1: I hope you have to start doing that on stage
Speaker 1: for forty five minutes every night of your life. If
Speaker 1: somebody be if people start heckling at your show with that,
Speaker 1: that'll be that'll be true.
Speaker 4: Heaven just peoplenals GISTs in the theater.
Speaker 3: Uh. All right, this is from.
Speaker 4: The Michelle Wee episode when he gave her cookies. Okay,
Speaker 4: Milkshaw Cookies closed as of January fifteenth. How old is
Speaker 4: this episode? You're serving up?
Speaker 3: All right? That's true.
Speaker 1: We pre record some of these and sadly, yes, they
Speaker 1: did close, and the entire Tosh family is still in mourning,
Speaker 1: so much so that today I have decided to get
Speaker 1: to the bottom of it.
Speaker 3: Enjoy Pasha.
Speaker 1: Today's guest is a woman after my own heart, based
Speaker 1: solely on her quitting her job in television to spend
Speaker 1: the next ten years owning and running one of my
Speaker 1: favorite cookie shops.
Speaker 3: Please welcome Courtney. Hello, Courtney.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be honest with you. This is arguably the
Speaker 1: most important interview I've ever done. Cookies mean more to
Speaker 1: me than my family same, so let's waste no time.
Speaker 1: Where originally from? And have you always been obsessed with cookies?
Speaker 2: I was born in forwarth Texas, and then we moved
Speaker 2: to Indiana, a suburb of Indianapolis, when I was seven,
Speaker 2: and then moved out here when I was twenty two.
Speaker 6: So I've been here longer than I've been anywhere else
Speaker 6: but you.
Speaker 3: But you grew up in Indianapolis. Basically I did.
Speaker 2: I didn't answer your second question, which is have I
Speaker 2: always been obsessed with cookies?
Speaker 3: Yes?
Speaker 2: Okay, so when I was a kid, my mom taught
Speaker 2: me the basics of baking, and I really loved cookie dough,
Speaker 2: and so that was pretty much what I would be
Speaker 2: doing if I wasn't in school or in gymnastics, I
Speaker 2: was making.
Speaker 1: Cookie dough gymnastics. I was a gymnast, your competitive gymnast.
Speaker 1: Your father coached the US men's team.
Speaker 2: He was in charge of men's gymnastics. It was the
Speaker 2: men's program administrator for US Gymnastics.
Speaker 3: Your mother competed as well.
Speaker 6: She was She was a state champion in Texas.
Speaker 3: How tall are you?
Speaker 6: Five to two?
Speaker 3: You are? You look taller?
Speaker 6: So I carry myself up her?
Speaker 1: You do you carry yourself taller? I wouldn't have pegged
Speaker 1: you to five too. Yeah, my wife's five too. She
Speaker 1: pretends like that's tall. But you've tired at fourteen?
Speaker 6: Yeah, got injured?
Speaker 3: Did you? What kind of injury?
Speaker 2: It's like hips, like hip They never really identified it,
Speaker 2: but I just like I couldn't really lift my right
Speaker 2: leg above.
Speaker 3: What was your best event?
Speaker 6: Probably vault and floor the vault.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's so exciting, so exciting, and everything could go wrong,
Speaker 3: everything so bad, so fast.
Speaker 1: You just just the way you run at it makes
Speaker 1: me laugh every time.
Speaker 3: It's just like just this angry run.
Speaker 2: I mean it is, it is a sprint, and then
Speaker 2: you just hope for the best.
Speaker 3: How much money and is it possible?
Speaker 1: Could I pay you to full steam run and do
Speaker 1: the vault right now?
Speaker 3: Could you? Could you run? Hit it and do something?
Speaker 6: That's a really great question. I don't know.
Speaker 2: I could run, would you be I could jump on
Speaker 2: the board. I would be scared. Oh so great, I
Speaker 2: would be scared. I feel like I could do I
Speaker 2: don't know.
Speaker 3: You think you'd flip?
Speaker 6: I really want to try.
Speaker 3: I don't know.
Speaker 1: Put a price tag on that and come back to me.
Speaker 1: I grew up, you know, in love with cookies. My
Speaker 1: grandfather was a baker. Okay, my grandfather was a professional baker.
Speaker 1: My dad was a novice. Just you know, he grew
Speaker 1: up because of his dad. So I just second handed it.
Speaker 1: The amount of raw dough that I've consumed in my life.
Speaker 2: Is if it could kill you, I'd be dead a
Speaker 2: thousand times. Like that's the only reason I made cookie dough?
Speaker 3: Could that could explain my stomach issues my whole life.
Speaker 2: Now you just have like a normal, like a regular
Speaker 2: salmonilla case all the time.
Speaker 3: I'm running that a low just above.
Speaker 6: Here we go again.
Speaker 3: What did you move to Los Angeles for to work
Speaker 3: in TV? What aspect?
Speaker 6: Well? I had, I got a job.
Speaker 2: I have one of those stories where my aunt worked
Speaker 2: with a guy whose daughter worked out here. So my
Speaker 2: sophomore year of college, I cold called her and just
Speaker 2: tried to get advice. And so then whenever it came
Speaker 2: time me to graduate, she was being promoted from post
Speaker 2: production coordinator to supervisors. So I flew out the day
Speaker 2: after I graduated from college, interviewed for the post coordinator position.
Speaker 2: Had no idea what I was doing, but they took
Speaker 2: a chance on me, and yeah, I did that.
Speaker 1: For That's kind of one of my favorite things about
Speaker 1: Los Angeles that doesn't get enough attention is the amount
Speaker 1: of jobs in show business that will give people that
Speaker 1: have no experience. Yeah, I mean they turn over the
Speaker 1: keys to like young people doing really important things on stuff.
Speaker 1: Just a lot of times like on hype and stuff,
Speaker 1: and that's kind of a neat thing. I don't know anyway.
Speaker 1: All right, So how long did you work in that world?
Speaker 6: Twelve years?
Speaker 3: Twelve? Did you hate it or love it?
Speaker 6: I loved it. I mean it was hard.
Speaker 2: You know, there were there were particular shows that would
Speaker 2: be like, I hate this.
Speaker 3: You worked on the porn show on Hung Hung technically
Speaker 3: not porn, but that.
Speaker 6: Was the one show.
Speaker 2: Every morning they made me go to the post production
Speaker 2: facility and watch dailies and I was like.
Speaker 6: Well, coffee in my morning, porn, you know, like.
Speaker 3: It's so early to see dong.
Speaker 2: It was not great, but yeah, I really loved it.
Speaker 2: But then it was like I did the cookies on
Speaker 2: the side for the last seven years of that career
Speaker 2: and just kind of kept going back and forth.
Speaker 1: You just started bringing your cookies in or you always
Speaker 1: knew that you your cookies were a level above what
Speaker 1: other people do.
Speaker 2: No, it really was like bringing them in and because I,
Speaker 2: you know, single girl in my twenties is just bake
Speaker 2: at night and bring them in, and you.
Speaker 3: Know, as single girls do. I don't, is that something
Speaker 3: that's what I did.
Speaker 6: I haven't heard those I don't know it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so I just bring them in and then I
Speaker 2: started hearing kind of rumblings of like, hey, what bakery
Speaker 2: are these cookies from? Those are so good, and so
Speaker 2: then I just started thinking that was something to it.
Speaker 2: And it was always just chocolate chip at the time.
Speaker 2: And then I just started experimenting with other flavors and
Speaker 2: I loved that creative outlet. And then I was like,
Speaker 2: maybe I'll try to do something. So I started a
Speaker 2: you know, cookie company out of the coat closet of
Speaker 2: my one bedroom apartment and just like shoved a fax
Speaker 2: machine in there.
Speaker 6: It was very high tech.
Speaker 2: Oh, and just kind of did it on the side
Speaker 2: for a while and for.
Speaker 1: Seven years before then you opened the first brick and mortar.
Speaker 1: It was the first brick mortar, the one in wheel Share.
Speaker 6: Yeah, it's April twenty thirteen, and.
Speaker 1: You ran that one for ten years. Pandemic, writers Strike,
Speaker 1: all of it. Writer's strike was a surprising one that
Speaker 1: affected you.
Speaker 6: If you have a soapbox, I'll get on it for
Speaker 6: a little while.
Speaker 2: But no, it's really interesting because there's been so little
Speaker 2: awareness of how deeply that impacted small businesses in this city.
Speaker 6: So like, what took us out is not unique to us.
Speaker 2: You know, we were a very successful, beloved business and
Speaker 2: it just thirty percent of our revenue went away overnight
Speaker 2: because we did so much catering to sets and you know,
Speaker 2: gifts for agents and managers and it was just like,
Speaker 2: you know, there was so much of it and then
Speaker 2: that was gone for it still hasn't really come back now.
Speaker 3: That I realized I don't have to buy gifts from
Speaker 3: my agents that money.
Speaker 2: But like the entire it wasn't just the writers and
Speaker 2: the actors. We know that the whole city wasn't working
Speaker 2: and so those people are also not spending money. So
Speaker 2: you know, the the foot traffic had never fully recovered
Speaker 2: since COVID. But then, you know, and then whatever cookies
Speaker 2: we were selling because we were very in support of
Speaker 2: the strike, I think it was a really important thing
Speaker 2: and we would you know, not just support it as
Speaker 2: a concept, but pass out cookies at the picket lines
Speaker 2: and all that stuff. But you know, then you're offering
Speaker 2: discounts to writers and actors that come in with their car.
Speaker 2: So it was just everything kind of trickled down and yeah,
Speaker 2: just ended up impacting us in a big way.
Speaker 1: You were in the process or you'd already opened the
Speaker 1: Pasadena location.
Speaker 3: In Cino in Sino.
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, it's okay. We opened right when the strike started.
Speaker 2: It should have been the previous August, so it should
Speaker 2: have been a six month build out.
Speaker 6: A budgeted for nine and it took fifteen. That kind
Speaker 6: of gave.
Speaker 1: Us, you know, the nightmare building and stuff like that.
Speaker 1: It's just yeah, planned for four months, but then be like,
Speaker 1: all right, two years seems right.
Speaker 6: Oh, it seems it seems reasonable.
Speaker 3: Do you believe in ghosts?
Speaker 6: Oh? Man, it's funny.
Speaker 2: I just was in Sacramento and my friend has a
Speaker 2: ghost hunting app.
Speaker 3: And she's single. No, oh, there's someone for everyone.
Speaker 6: So I don't know. I believe in energy, like I
Speaker 6: think we're all energy.
Speaker 2: Sorry, I off, No, that's okay, But I don't know,
Speaker 2: like I've never had a ghost experience.
Speaker 6: But this friend of mine then has the ghost.
Speaker 3: Hunting they have an app, so that's no.
Speaker 2: But she got the app because she had this experience
Speaker 2: in Scotland in an old inn where there was like
Speaker 2: the sound of like someone jumping on the bed and
Speaker 2: this like a child giggle.
Speaker 3: You don't like ghost with kids, that's all.
Speaker 6: It feels a little freaky.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: One time I terrified my wife's cousin. She was standing
Speaker 1: in a small little cabin that we had, and I
Speaker 1: put a knife under her pillow and I and I
Speaker 1: put these little little notes all around the bed. I
Speaker 1: go kill her, not a ghost with crayons and I wrote,
Speaker 1: give me back.
Speaker 5: My dress, Amanda, bring me my dress, and all these
Speaker 5: old old photos of the house my dress please, ha
Speaker 5: ha ha. The lake is called help my dress.
Speaker 6: A knife under the pillow might have been a touch
Speaker 6: to me, nurse.
Speaker 3: It was. It was because you didn't find that until
Speaker 3: she's like laid that there's a Amanda knife.
Speaker 5: Fuck scary as fuck.
Speaker 1: And then when she went into the bathroom I had
Speaker 1: I had a doll hanging by a noose inner shower.
Speaker 5: Oh my god, Oh my god.
Speaker 1: And like she like she was like she couldn't that, Ama,
Speaker 1: she was just couldn't handle to what levels I took.
Speaker 6: You know, Yes, that's so funny.
Speaker 3: Ye seen me walk into your store.
Speaker 1: I hadn't, okay, because I used I was always incognitive,
Speaker 1: but I would illegally park out front, just double park
Speaker 1: in front of somebody.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 3: I didn't like the parking situation. It actually infuriated me.
Speaker 1: To be honest with you, Sometimes I would say to myself,
Speaker 1: I'm like, I don't.
Speaker 3: Self, I don't need to be doing this right now.
Speaker 1: I'm driving around for a cookie and I'm looking for
Speaker 1: a parking spot.
Speaker 6: It did get bad.
Speaker 2: We had three spots in the back and there was
Speaker 2: a rear entrance, but then there was a public parking
Speaker 2: not to discount your there was a public parking lot
Speaker 2: on Cochrane and then metered all along Cochrane, Dunsmere and
Speaker 2: will Share.
Speaker 1: I've walked there before in my life from Carly's old house,
Speaker 1: which is is basically by like the Melrose improv that coming.
Speaker 1: Oh right, I walked the whole way. I was like,
Speaker 1: I was like, ah, this is awful, going through going
Speaker 1: through what mccallt park, pan Asian what's it called.
Speaker 2: Pan Pacific pantas Yeah, you.
Speaker 3: Know what I mean.
Speaker 1: Whatever I'm walking, I'm going through the little band tar
Speaker 1: pits to get a goddamn cookie.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 6: I admire that.
Speaker 3: You were open till eleven o'clock at night. I couldn't
Speaker 3: wrap my head around that.
Speaker 6: Oh it's a.
Speaker 2: Party in the long before I opened, I was like,
Speaker 2: there's never a place like after you go to dinner
Speaker 2: in a movie, do you want to go get something?
Speaker 3: It was wrong with you?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 6: It was great.
Speaker 2: Okay, people are looking for a place to go and
Speaker 2: we were across from the l ray, so it was
Speaker 2: like after a show people could come over. And those
Speaker 2: were my favorite nights where there was just like an energy.
Speaker 6: It was a part. It was so fun.
Speaker 1: Are you like a donut make? Are you baking once?
Speaker 1: Are you baking throughout the whole day?
Speaker 6: Throughout the day?
Speaker 3: Okay?
Speaker 2: Yeah, COVID changed things because like for two years everything
Speaker 2: was because we already individually wrapped and stuff if it
Speaker 2: was in a gift box.
Speaker 6: But then everything was individually wrapped. Love that.
Speaker 1: I'm also to continuous because your next chapter is going
Speaker 1: to be exciting, so I want to get as much
Speaker 1: feedback in as I can.
Speaker 3: Perfect knock it off with the stupid that paper. I
Speaker 3: hate your shread. Oh fuck your shred it's so much.
Speaker 2: I have an amazing story. This lady came in and
Speaker 2: she was just so mad. This is years ago, and
Speaker 2: she was I don't want to shrud and she was
Speaker 2: so mad and my employee and I didn't. I got
Speaker 2: in on late on the situation, because it would have
Speaker 2: been like, just take the tread, it's fine. But my
Speaker 2: employee was doing what they were trained to do. She
Speaker 2: handed to the box and the woman like takes it
Speaker 2: and just starts going and.
Speaker 6: Throwing it in the employee's face.
Speaker 3: Okay, well that's too far.
Speaker 6: It's too far.
Speaker 3: I love this person, but that's way too far.
Speaker 2: You agree with her, but not the way it's principle exactly.
Speaker 2: But I was like, oh God, if anyone ever says
Speaker 2: no shred, don't give them the shred.
Speaker 6: It's fine.
Speaker 1: First of all, that's the worst part of a small
Speaker 1: business is employees.
Speaker 3: It's difficult.
Speaker 6: It's just a nice It can also be the most
Speaker 6: like rewarding.
Speaker 3: Okay, but let's focus on the negative. All right.
Speaker 6: It's hard.
Speaker 1: It's hard, right, the individually wrapping, I was like, oh,
Speaker 1: why did I order a dozen? This is just fucking
Speaker 1: throw them into a I'm going to co workers. I'll
Speaker 1: just open it upright, just the individual bags. Yeah, I know,
Speaker 1: like come on.
Speaker 2: It's like so that because if you take a variety
Speaker 2: and somebody's got a peanut allergy and now you've got.
Speaker 1: This, you know, I hope they die for their stupid allergy.
Speaker 1: These are my employees that I'm giving it to. I
Speaker 1: don't care what happens. To go through your top five
Speaker 1: favorite cookie flavors that came from your store, I think
Speaker 1: if I had.
Speaker 2: To choose one forever and I could only ever have it,
Speaker 2: it'd be chocolate chip.
Speaker 6: Walnut used to just be chocolate chip.
Speaker 2: There's something magical that that walnut oil like does to
Speaker 2: the dough.
Speaker 3: Even hate nuts, My hat nuts.
Speaker 1: Okay, I'm not like nuts, but either the not in
Speaker 1: the dessert nuts and for when I'm like on a trail.
Speaker 3: And even then I'm just eating them and m.
Speaker 2: Okay, I think banana split. Sorry again, walnuts in it,
Speaker 2: but no.
Speaker 3: The banana split bana split I could have it was
Speaker 3: that was a fancy concept, but I I'll be honest.
Speaker 3: The nuts were like, oh my.
Speaker 6: Gosh, yeah, can I can? I do seasons as well?
Speaker 3: Of course?
Speaker 2: Peppermint park I love the pepper I love peppermint picnic cookie?
Speaker 3: Was that one I had pretzel bits in it?
Speaker 6: Yeah?
Speaker 1: I really loved the oatmeal chocolate chip. Ye, but I
Speaker 1: would want to walk in there and be like, hey,
Speaker 1: you know that batch that's that needs two more minutes.
Speaker 6: That's the one you want.
Speaker 3: Let's pull it out now.
Speaker 6: Yeah, the oatmeal, they would they got a little dry faster.
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I always do double parchment paper. Oh and the reason
Speaker 1: is I just don't want the bottom burnt at all
Speaker 1: or dark or anything.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 3: So that's my thing with I just live by parchment paper.
Speaker 6: Double part that's a ball or move double parchment. I'm
Speaker 6: going to I'm going to take that.
Speaker 3: You gotta spend to make.
Speaker 7: Yeah.
Speaker 1: The birthday cookie was one of my favorite, with the
Speaker 1: scoop of a no ice cream warmed. I would heat
Speaker 1: it up. He reheats very nicely. Yeah, I'm on tour.
Speaker 1: I was in Texas, I believe.
Speaker 3: At the time. Anyway, my tour bus in the daytime
Speaker 3: near my hotel, pitch Black, it's not. And Pete, who's
Speaker 3: a producer on the show. His wife who was a
Speaker 3: comedy writer of mine writer and a friend she was
Speaker 3: on tour. Well, she came to the bus in the
Speaker 3: middle of the day to do something and she opens
Speaker 3: the door and I'm alone in the bus in the dark,
Speaker 3: just eating the cookie by myself, and she's like, you
Speaker 3: have She's like, you really have a problem. It's like
Speaker 3: the afternoon problem.
Speaker 6: Is it just a self care?
Speaker 1: You charged three to four dollars a cookie during its peak?
Speaker 1: How much money were you printing like that? That's such a.
Speaker 3: Small amount of money.
Speaker 1: Yeah, for like you know, yearly you make a pulling in,
Speaker 1: there's like a million dollar dollars.
Speaker 3: Off of a three to four dollars product. That's very impressive.
Speaker 6: We sold a lot.
Speaker 3: In terms of flavors, which cookies were selling the most, Chocolate.
Speaker 2: Chip was definitely the most popular, and then Banana split.
Speaker 2: Some people love a classic, but they like the adventure too.
Speaker 2: And then Birthday Cookie that actually started as a seasonal.
Speaker 2: I don't know if you remember that. It was the
Speaker 2: monthly flavor for our first anniversary in twenty fourteen, and
Speaker 2: then after that it was the one everybody's like, where's
Speaker 2: the Birthday cookie?
Speaker 1: Well, in fairness, sometimes you would. I would go in
Speaker 1: there and be like, there'd be a Birthday cookie disguised
Speaker 1: as a Halloween cookie.
Speaker 6: We would change the color of the sprinkles. It's true.
Speaker 6: I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
Speaker 1: Well, it's fine, that's fine. I actually don't like the
Speaker 1: color orange and black, but whatever I liked the other
Speaker 1: color was pretty er. Yeah, and also would make when
Speaker 1: it was heated and you put a scoop of vanilla
Speaker 1: ice cream, it would do some picturette it would do
Speaker 1: some nice stuff to the ice cream.
Speaker 6: Nice.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you appreciate your appreciation for the aesthetic.
Speaker 6: It's good.
Speaker 3: What's your favorite holiday?
Speaker 6: Christmas? Yeah?
Speaker 1: Over at Christmas in my house, I do a few things.
Speaker 1: They do a few traditional things. I do a short bread.
Speaker 1: You don't mess with short but I do one short bread.
Speaker 1: But then I do this bar peanut or pudding chocolate bar.
Speaker 1: And then I do my regord traditional Christmas cookie, which
Speaker 1: I actually love, which is obviously.
Speaker 6: The rollout kind of yeah.
Speaker 3: Fun. I do a little orange peel in there.
Speaker 6: Nice.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that adds You can taste You can taste that
Speaker 1: orange peel, can't you, Pete, No, not even paying attention
Speaker 1: over there. I want to talk about Yelp. You ran
Speaker 1: a business in Los Angeles during the time of Yelp.
Speaker 1: Talk a little about the bullshit with reviewers and navigating
Speaker 1: those waters.
Speaker 6: Oh man, you live and die by yelp. You really do.
Speaker 2: For the most part, people were so kind to us
Speaker 2: on Yelp, and that was we never had a marketing budget.
Speaker 3: Ever.
Speaker 2: It was all organic growth and so A lot of
Speaker 2: that was because of Yelp and people being so generous
Speaker 2: as to you know, take pictures and post them and
Speaker 2: do one or full reviews, and then you have the
Speaker 2: ones that are just so off base and not accurate
Speaker 2: at all.
Speaker 1: Owner, did you reply to people, because I always feel
Speaker 1: that that's is tough when I start seeing owners going
Speaker 1: back and forth.
Speaker 2: Oh, it would never be like you're wrong. I mean
Speaker 2: that's you're just asking for more. Like I would reply,
Speaker 2: and because I always wanted to make it right, you know,
Speaker 2: like the fact that they had chosen Milk Jark Cookies
Speaker 2: to come and spend their hard earned money and their time,
Speaker 2: and like that was never anything I took lightly.
Speaker 3: My money was not hard earned, just for the.
Speaker 2: Record, but it was just and that was something of
Speaker 2: this staff was always and it was just like, this
Speaker 2: is a privilege that they are choosing us.
Speaker 6: Some people you're never going to place and that's fine.
Speaker 2: It's the people that are like one star because parking
Speaker 2: was terrible, right, you know, it's like that's not our problem.
Speaker 3: That's why I don't find you useful.
Speaker 1: No, I look at it. I have my own metric
Speaker 1: of how I get aged. Yeah, like if somebody's complaining
Speaker 1: about the price or the portion size.
Speaker 3: I don't care. I don't care. I need the review like,
Speaker 3: oh they won't serve Asians, and then.
Speaker 6: I'll be like, oh, like that's terrible, that's a bad place.
Speaker 1: I shouldn't support them, right, what is that place that
Speaker 1: won't serve ass Again?
Speaker 6: You shipped worldwide, not worldwide, but nationwide at one point.
Speaker 2: Shit, we're able to ship to Canada easily, and then
Speaker 2: twenty sixteen some things changed.
Speaker 3: And you're a big anti vaxer right totally?
Speaker 6: But yeah, no, we did.
Speaker 2: Uh. It included Hawaii and Alaska, which we did ship to,
Speaker 2: and Puerto Rico.
Speaker 6: We had a Cookie of the Month club member in
Speaker 6: Puerto Rico.
Speaker 1: I gifted a box of your cookies to Michelle Wee,
Speaker 1: who I've interviewed on this show. Really yes, but that
Speaker 1: was in protest from my wife because my wife can
Speaker 1: gets so mad every month when the box came, because
Speaker 1: she was like, you're going to die, Like She's like,
Speaker 1: we don't need you don't need a somebody had gifted me.
Speaker 3: So I was like, yeah, every month I got a box.
Speaker 3: What are you gonna do?
Speaker 1: Are there any current cookie companies you would recommend.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's interesting because I mean I'm a cookie lover.
Speaker 6: Of course I think mine are the best.
Speaker 2: But I will eat, you know, a grocery store bakery cookie.
Speaker 1: But I have recently stopped if I bite a cookie
Speaker 1: that I no longer want to eat before, I.
Speaker 3: Just eat it, right, Yeah, it's not worth it.
Speaker 1: Here's another problem with when you love cookies and then
Speaker 1: everybody buys you cookies.
Speaker 3: It's like, oh, we're going to give you a lot.
Speaker 1: I don't want a lot because now I have to
Speaker 1: either do the stupid freezer thing or I have to
Speaker 1: start to vale eat them, right, And I don't like
Speaker 1: to give them away. But it's like and they're only
Speaker 1: really the best day one and day two. Yeah, so
Speaker 1: now it's just I'm just sick to my stomach anyway,
Speaker 1: all right, that's my soapbox.
Speaker 2: So yes, so I've and during like the course of
Speaker 2: our shutdown and you know, selling off all the things,
Speaker 2: I got to meet several other bakery owners, which was
Speaker 2: a nice gift. So there's one in Culver City called
Speaker 2: the Very Best Cookie Company. There is a new one,
Speaker 2: I think it's called flour at Sell.
Speaker 3: What is it.
Speaker 2: It's flur at Cell what is that flour and salt?
Speaker 3: I don't know. I don't like them, but I like it.
Speaker 2: And then there is Cookie Good in Santa Monica. So
Speaker 2: all of these are independently owned.
Speaker 1: What's his name over there, John He He likes zoo Eyes.
Speaker 6: I have not ever tried Zoe's.
Speaker 3: I've tried them. They're fine.
Speaker 1: I still can't get over the fact that you're going
Speaker 1: into a gas station to buy the.
Speaker 6: Most esthetically pleasing right.
Speaker 3: Yeah, they are good. I've had a few of them.
Speaker 3: Are good. You fuck with girlscot cookies, I do.
Speaker 6: I was a Girl Scout top selling cookies. Of course.
Speaker 3: What was your favorite one, Benn? Did you have to
Speaker 3: put in the freezer?
Speaker 6: Oh? For sure, there's so much better in the freezer.
Speaker 6: And I like a samoa.
Speaker 3: I like a samoa, And there's room for.
Speaker 6: A dosy dough.
Speaker 2: The little peanut butter sandwich thing, I don't love it, Yeah,
Speaker 2: it's okay.
Speaker 3: The treefoil, treefoil, Yeah, I liked it.
Speaker 6: Yeah, short bread, you can't go wrong.
Speaker 3: Do you ever do mess with short bread?
Speaker 2: Your store?
Speaker 6: I don't.
Speaker 3: Your store didn't.
Speaker 6: We did chewy cookies. I don't like a hard cookie.
Speaker 3: I don't either, that's why most of Girl Scouts were awful.
Speaker 6: Yeah, cookies, there's a place for it.
Speaker 1: You know, what's the difference between baking soda and baking powder.
Speaker 2: Baking powder has other things in it, So it's got
Speaker 2: baking soda and it has I want to say, some.
Speaker 6: Corn starch and terrible bake.
Speaker 2: I can't remember the third ingredient, but anyway, they're kind
Speaker 2: of interchange.
Speaker 3: Can baking powder keep your cabinets fresh?
Speaker 6: I don't think, you know, I don't think.
Speaker 2: So that's where baking soda wins bakings.
Speaker 1: That was a marketing genius right there. So you know what,
Speaker 1: buy these and just don't use them.
Speaker 6: Oh, arm and hammer?
Speaker 3: What do you bake besides cookies?
Speaker 2: I like?
Speaker 6: I love to.
Speaker 2: I mean I'm not great, Like I'm a terrible decorator,
Speaker 2: like icing and frosting.
Speaker 3: I like cake without icing.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I like just the cake.
Speaker 3: I had a naked cake for my wedding.
Speaker 6: Oh really yeah? I like pie a lot.
Speaker 3: What kind of pie are you making?
Speaker 6: Usually like a fruit pie? So like mixed berry?
Speaker 3: I like a heavy crumble.
Speaker 6: Yes, then that's the whole point.
Speaker 2: It's kind of like you get the fruit, but like
Speaker 2: that's the good part, you know, like the brown sugar
Speaker 2: and the crust and all that. Not big on like
Speaker 2: a pumpkin pie.
Speaker 3: No, it's disgusting.
Speaker 6: Yeah, it's the worst.
Speaker 3: I don't want to eat a rhubarb pie either, that's
Speaker 3: too much. Yeah, I don't.
Speaker 6: Disgusting what I was mixed with?

Speaker 1: this was I did. This is oatmeal chocolate chip. But
Speaker 1: another thing that my wife forces me to do. She
Speaker 1: hates chocolate chips in quantity. Okay, so I have to
Speaker 1: put or three per cookie. Okay, God, now again, I alright,
Speaker 1: whatever I mean, I'm too much. You just have to
Speaker 1: taste it into a review of my cookie on some level.
Speaker 6: Okay, mmm, okay, it's got the crisp ouder.
Speaker 3: But you can do.
Speaker 1: I feel like you should go for more of an
Speaker 1: inner bite. But that's no, that's fine.

Speaker 2: Cookie and salt. Do you bake with salted butter unsulted, unsulted. Yeah,
Speaker 2: and then add the salt totally.
Speaker 3: Oh man, that's stressful. Stress. That's good.

Speaker 3: Let me see your cookies. Just I like the idea
Speaker 3: that this is.

Speaker 1: chocolate chip these look better than some of the store
Speaker 1: bought ones.
Speaker 6: I mean, yeah, really controls a bitch.
Speaker 1: The lightness of the colors what I like. Yeah, Now,
Speaker 1: in the store they they were sprinkled in the bottom
Speaker 1: of these inside.
Speaker 2: Well sometimes they would like know all the time. Well,
Speaker 2: then the kitchen was not doing it properly.
Speaker 3: They were they were the bottom was never clean like that.
Speaker 6: Well, I just have the touch.
Speaker 2: I haven't lost it. I actually took a picture this
Speaker 2: morning and said it to my friend. I was like,
Speaker 2: still got it.

Speaker 4: the tour you did.
Speaker 6: That's so great, Thank you, I did.
Speaker 3: No one wants to touch him he's her mine.
Speaker 6: Hang a share. There you go.
Speaker 3: You have a dog, I do. What's your dog's name?
Speaker 6: Ollie how old thirteen? Uh oh, he's a handsome devil and.
Speaker 3: You're about to not have a dog stop it. I know.
Speaker 6: But that's the day I brought him home. I was like,
Speaker 6: he's gonna die some day.
Speaker 3: It's what I do.
Speaker 6: It's the worst.
Speaker 1: That's why I have two dogs. I have a fourteen
Speaker 1: year old dog at home. And let me tell you something.
Speaker 1: She will get trapped under a chair, like she can
Speaker 1: just walk out, but she'll she'll She'll be frozen for
Speaker 1: forty five minutes, and I'm just like, oh, come on,
Speaker 1: and she can't hear, she doesn't really see. And then
Speaker 1: sometimes she'll start running as fast as she can right
Speaker 1: into a glassdoor.
Speaker 3: Just it's just awful. You're like, oh, this is bad.
Speaker 2: He's hanging in there right now. He's very he's a
Speaker 2: pretty healthy dog.
Speaker 3: I have an er gift for you. It's no good, though,
Speaker 3: it's no good. It's dog beds. Amazing you might, I
Speaker 3: don't know you're gonna get them all. This is no good.
Speaker 3: I like that.
Speaker 6: So when I get more dog, what is.
Speaker 3: I always give?
Speaker 1: I always give people stuff that are on my should
Speaker 1: But all right, let me put these down.
Speaker 3: Hold on, some of these are nice. They are not
Speaker 3: all of them, but these these are these are nice.
Speaker 6: Carl.
Speaker 3: Carl refuses to sleep in a dog bed.
Speaker 1: Well, no matter what, my other dog refuses to sleep
Speaker 1: in a dog bed.
Speaker 3: I'm like, why do we have these dog bets?
Speaker 1: What's next for you? As someone who's already had two
Speaker 1: full careers. Are you hanging up the apron or are
Speaker 1: you ready to bake once more?
Speaker 2: I think I'm hanging it up, Like I don't know
Speaker 2: that I ever need to have another bakery and own
Speaker 2: that kind of business. And I've become very passionate about
Speaker 2: advocating and supporting small business as a whole, and so
Speaker 2: I've been having a lot of conversations about ways to
Speaker 2: do that. So whether it's running for office for office,
Speaker 2: I don't know it's enough.
Speaker 1: Oh my goodness, no, I mean that's incredible. I don't
Speaker 1: know why that's my because it's.
Speaker 2: A chit show and it is accesspool in a lot
Speaker 2: of ways, but you know, it's a concept. I have
Speaker 2: fun necessity, but I think there are other ways to
Speaker 2: make change as well. So I'm just kind of trying
Speaker 2: to figure out what that is. I did a program
Speaker 2: with Goldman Sachs in twenty twenty that was essentially a
Speaker 2: micro MBA that you apply for and you just come
Speaker 2: out of the program with a five year growth plan
Speaker 2: for your business. And they have an advocacy side that's
Speaker 2: ten thousand small business voices, and so I've been talking
Speaker 2: with them a lot, trying to figure out if there's
Speaker 2: opportunity there or I just think that it's the lifeblood
Speaker 2: of every community, is the small businesses, and they're struggling,
Speaker 2: you know, everywhere, but especially here.
Speaker 6: If you have another soapbox, I haven't that.
Speaker 1: No, listen, if you have even any ideas to fix
Speaker 1: the broken system, that seems like work that would be appreciated.
Speaker 1: But yeah, would you have no side hustle bake just
Speaker 1: like online order type thing or.
Speaker 3: Is that not?
Speaker 2: I don't know, because it's so funny because if I
Speaker 2: were to even open that door, like I wouldn't be
Speaker 2: able to. I would have to have a kitchen, I
Speaker 2: would have to have, you know, space to do the packaging, sorry,
Speaker 2: the individual wrapping to ship them, got to have space
Speaker 2: to store all that shred.
Speaker 6: You know, it's a lot.
Speaker 1: What about already an business, it's established, but like you
Speaker 1: just take over the baking portion of it.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 2: I also think consulting for small businesses is something I've
Speaker 2: thought about doing, and I was kind of doing that
Speaker 2: offhandedly when people were coming in to purchase stuff and
Speaker 2: there's just a lot of I think there's a lot
Speaker 2: of things that have been overlooked with small business and
Speaker 2: all just there's not a lot of education out there,
Speaker 2: and so I.
Speaker 1: Well, that's why most businesses fail is because everybody goes
Speaker 1: into a completely blind Yeah.
Speaker 3: I was.
Speaker 1: I was hoping we were going to brainstorm on your
Speaker 1: next big venture. But if it's just fixing every other
Speaker 1: small business, that's that.
Speaker 5: No.
Speaker 6: I'm open to the magic. I really am.
Speaker 3: All Right, guys, we're going to open up a waffle store.
Speaker 1: Oh I love. I love what you call it. What's
Speaker 1: the waffle of the sugar? That's the Belgian wall.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: My son once I told him, I go, hey, they
Speaker 1: said that you don't need to eat breakfast, that you're gonna.
Speaker 3: Have waffles at school today. You know. He's like four
Speaker 3: at the time. Yeah, and he but Dad, what if
Speaker 3: they're not Belgian?
Speaker 6: That's a bougie kid. Yes, I love that.
Speaker 3: I wasn't embarrassed. I was proud. Yeah, I was good.
Speaker 1: Absolutely listen, I hope you fix every small business world.
Speaker 1: That's that's amazing that that's even something that you're interested
Speaker 1: in helping. Thank you for being on the show. And
Speaker 1: I appreciate all your cookies that you've baked over the
Speaker 1: years for me.
Speaker 6: Thank you so much for being such a supportive customer.
Speaker 6: It is much appreciated.
Speaker 2: And thanks for having this was really fun, Pasha.
Speaker 1: I want to thank Courtney for being on the show.
Speaker 1: I really do hope she throws away all her aspirations
Speaker 1: for running for a political office and fixing tons of
Speaker 1: other small businesses. And I hope she focuses solely on baking.
Speaker 1: But that's just me and I'm selfish. By the way, Carl,
Speaker 1: she took all of your beds. She took your five beds.
Speaker 1: You have no more beds, Okay, you can just sleep
Speaker 1: wherever you want. No longer will I be forcing you
Speaker 1: to get into a bed. He just lay down on
Speaker 1: the floor like you always do. Finally get all that
Speaker 1: extra floor space back. That'll be nice. And thank you
Speaker 1: for Courtney for the cookies. Oh by the way, you
Speaker 1: know what's funny. So I'm driving here, you know, to
Speaker 1: Baldwin Hills live here. Uh, and then I realized, oh no,
Speaker 1: I forgot to bring the five dog beds that I
Speaker 1: set out to give away today. And then somebody tells
Speaker 1: me here They're like, you know, you can just use Uber.
Speaker 1: You don't have to put a human in it. You
Speaker 1: can just hire Uber to deliver your stuff. I'm like,

Speaker 1: add an Uber driver, pick up your dog beds and
Speaker 1: bring them here like fifty bucks.

Speaker 3: you came up with. There.
Speaker 1: They got to give us money, give us money Uber
Speaker 1: for me just plugging your weird what's it called Uber
Speaker 1: connect Express is what I'm told that sounds like a
Speaker 1: paid ad.
Speaker 3: It's not. I shouldn't say it the right way. I'm
Speaker 3: just called Uber Delivery.
Speaker 1: Whatever the very least, reimburse me the fifty two dollars
Speaker 1: I just spent.
Speaker 3: You tip on a package.
Speaker 1: I guess I don't know how much you tip on
Speaker 1: that package, Pete ten bucks, sixty two dollars. That's the
Speaker 1: very least you can do, don't make this show run

Speaker 1: and let them just live with me for six months.
Speaker 1: I want them to walk six months in my shoes
Speaker 1: and then then say, oh, you know what, turns out

Speaker 3: Well, yeah, and let me tell you something about killing
Speaker 3: a live turkey.

Speaker 1: because then that their meat tenses up. I think you
Speaker 1: want to You want to sneak up on them samurai
Speaker 1: style and just swing, because the last thing you want
Speaker 1: before they die, you don't want their adrenaline to go
