I mean, there's a guy, he's a paraplegic and he's able to play chess and all these games with just his mind. I mean, think about this, right? It is absolutely remarkable. He's the first guy to re-land a rocket. NASA has been doing it 55 years, 60 years. And he comes in and he's able to re-land a rocket. So I think anything he's doing will be on the show. He's wired differently.

And where we see problems that are insurmountable, he comes up with solutions. And that's what I always tell people that work for us. Don't come to me with problems. Come to me with solutions. Because there's always going to be problems. No one's going to live a profit-free life. So you better be good at solving problems. And that's, I think, the way his mind is wired.

Nothing is out of the question. Would you have ever thought you're going to put a brain chip in a human being's brain? I would have never thought that. Never in a million years. And it's happening. So he's got a gift. And he's been public about it. He is on the spectrum and has Asperger's.

And it goes to show you that the beautiful thing about life is that we're all different and we all have strengths and we all have weaknesses. And where a lot of people may see that as a disability, he turns that into a hell of a gift and a hell of an advantage because he's not neurotypical.

I realized early on that I loved food and I loved cooking, but I also realized as an adult that it's the worst possible business you can get into. It has the highest failure rate. It's like investing in racehorses. It's just not a great return.

But my wife was born in Naples, Italy, and whenever her mom would come into town to visit, we would have people lined up to come over for dinner at the door to have her home cooking from Naples. And then one day, Juliana said, we should open up an Italian restaurant. And I'm thinking, this is a way to burn money. Like, horrible idea, horrible idea.

And we're out to dinner one night with a guy named Greg Olson, who used to be at Chicago Berry. He's now a commentator for Fox. And Juliana and I are at dinner with him and his wife. And he says, well, you're going to open up an Italian restaurant. You should talk to my friend, Arjit. We kind of courted each other for a year and a half or so.

And then we opened up our first one 13 or 14 years ago right here in Chicago. Then we opened up a second one and a third one. And now we have them spread throughout the country and we're opening up more. We've got a lot in the pipeline. What's your favorite meal? Does it have to be one of your restaurants? I love a good cheeseburger. I love cheeseburger and fries.

I ran the New York marathon a couple of years ago when I finished. I got a double cheeseburger, fries, and a milkshake. And it was just like, that was it. That was heaven for me. Can we do a quick lightning round?

Oh my gosh. One thing I own that I should probably throw out. A lot of old clothes. I got to donate a lot of these clothes because they've been sitting there for 10 years and I haven't worn them. They probably don't fit anymore either after COVID. Picked up a few pounds during COVID. And it's harder to come off now that I'm in my 50s. But yeah, just stuff that I'll never wear again.
