Nothing Was Off Limits - Eli Weber's Most Personal Q&A Yet

I think that's good. All right, welcome to another episode of Positivity. I was not at all in the mood of recording an episode about Bashem. There's one thing that makes our podcast stand out, the Positivity Podcast, is that we have a consistency. We have almost 120 episodes, I believe. And I try not to skip, never to skip an episode. So, it's very important. And I didn't have an episode to put out. So, like I did in the past, I'm putting out a solo episode tonight. I like when I do put out a solo episode, which means that I do it myself instead of bringing on a guest. I like to write down certain things that I'm going to talk about, but I didn't even get a chance at that. So, what I'm going to do is I'm going to challenge the my followers on Instagram. We have over 30,000 followers. I'm going to go live and the questions that we get over there will be the topics that we discuss. So, we're going to do that right now. If you don't follow me yet, feel free to um feel free to reach to follow on Instagram when you watch this. We're going to go live and make a stickle combination between the live on Instagram and the podcast. It's going to be very interesting. So, let's do this. So, let's see. I mentioned all my questions. I have here my second phone do and this will be the positivity podcast. Let me write um recording a podcast live. Feel free to submit a question. Submit questions. Okay, let's see what people are going to say. A lot of people saying hi and sup. Love you. Thank you for all the love. Let's pin it. How do we pin it? Pin comment. Okay. So, let's see what people have questions about. We have a it's about 72 people. So, I'm recording a practice live and let's see if people have any questions. will discuss oh the topic you decide the topic the oil and the audience is deciding the topic and based on that we'll have a conversation very worried why are you in the hospital please fill us in oh okay that's a good topic actually so for those who don't know the last few weeks my mother has been in the hospital what started as an ulcer turned perforated ulcer um ulcer is when you have um is when you have gas in the stomach, but then it kind of doesn't stay in one place. So, it can cause complications and affections and that's unfortunately what happened to her. But the gitanias is that she's feeling a lot better and we'll be coming home shortly. So, that's very exciting. It's interesting to know that health is such an important thing. It's like either you have it or you don't. Like I I tried my protectia calling people being famous nothing really helped and it's very very frustrating when you want somebody to feel healthy and unfortunately the hospital in a sense can sometimes be like a double-edged sword. It's like you go over there to get healing but at the same time it can also be something that makes you feel worse because you're not sleeping properly. You're not you're not you know you're you're under care of other people. You can't take care of yourself. So it can be really really um stressful as well. And as much as I try to call organizations and zak I give credit to all the organizations especially the proactive ones that like like 247 um mckimi those are the organizations that they're just doing stuff but then the organizations that there are other organizations that are unfortunately busier and you have to call them and follow up and ask and keep on begging whether it's organizations bigger names that people know or individuals that help, but it's not like in a proactive way. They're not going to now take your case and just do everything for you. You got to call them and follow up. It can be a very frustrating and sad uh process. So, that's a little bit of what I've witnessed, but thank you, Hashem, that uh things are getting better. Mav grateful for health. It's unfortunate to Zane before mention in Lennox Hill Hospital um how many Eden whenever I'm there mama she I was there last night the mama showed St. I actually met a guy in the hospital that um I didn't even know that he is Jewish. I didn't even know he's a Eid. And then he's like just tells me. So I said, "Get back." And that's when I noticed that he's a Eid. And I asked him how he's doing. And he said that uh you know, it's hard to see people that you love suffer. and I agreed with him very much. Um because that's that's what what it was. And then I saw him go into a car. He had a uh nice car driver. I wish I could bring him on to the podcast and hear his story cuz he seems like he he reached some kind of success. Um but I have no idea who it is. So yeah, if he's listening to this, you want to be on the podcast, reach out to me. Okay. So, there's the mass of the hospital. All right. So, now let's see. I think there are a lot more questions. How much? Well, somebody's asking about my AP watch. How much that is? It's a secret. How do I see the questions? There are so many. Did an episode. That's terrible. You're a legend. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Um, what is your favorite restaurant? Oo, that's a good question. I have an issue because I really don't have a favorite restaurant. I feel like that's the challenge. Do I have a favorite restaurant? I don't know. Milik Fly. And there's different vibes. When people ask me which restaurant should I go to, where are you looking for? So there's different locations, different vibes. Going for more casual, you're looking for more fancy, you want to go out and get dressed, you want a cup, a burger, what's the occasion? Are you celebrating something? Restaurant, although I've been, I think, to every restaurant that there is. And when there is a new one, I try to be the first one over there. Um, and I usually pay. But, uh, it's very hard to say. It really depends. Do you like fish? If you like fish, you go to Sansakana in the city. If you like uh if you like, you know, casual fun finger food and for a decent price, you go to Butcher Grill House. You like Chinese, you can go to China Club. You like Italian, you go to Noidu Carne in the in the in the city. Uh you like very fancy, you want to dress up, you go to uh reserve cut in the city. You know, it's it's very different very different energies, very different uh vibes. So, you have to first determine. Um, but then again, the question is valid. What's my favorite restaurant? One of my favorites is Wall Street Grill. I just like the people there. I like the staff. I like the vibe. Um, that's one of my favorites. I like China Glut. If you're looking for more casual, it's also good people over there. Good food, consistent. So, yeah. Okay, let's see more questions. There's so many messages here. Uh, the episode come out yesterday. No, this is the episode for yesterday basically. Where is my wife? She's in the house. Who do you host today? Hosting myself. I don't know why this is so complicated. Yeah. Why now? What about spending time with your wife? Oh, thank you. Men do appreciate the advice. I think the vibe is the thing. 100%. The at the restaurant has a different vibe. I lost the questions from before. If anybody had questions, favorite steak is a good steakhouse. Nice house. Thank you. Appreciate the compliment. What's the reason that you're not posting normal pictures from your wife? She doesn't want or something about you. Um, I think the simple reason is that she doesn't want and um, so I respect her choice and that's pretty much it. Are you a So really I went to Yeshiva. My family's turned went to Shiva. Yeah, you can call me maybe. Yeah. Fine guys, if anybody has any questions, feel free to ask. I'm happy to share my opinion on stuff. Let me scroll down here. Yeah. Does that sound mentioned how questions I think? Yeah. RSVP is also a good restaurant actually a web media client. Yeah, Sundays I don't like to do anything. I just like to chill, wake up late, do walk, do my daily walk and eat some breakfast, go out with my wife and just enjoy record live, you know. Yeah. What's the best steakhouse? I'm not too into steak. What's the best steakhouse? Is your wifeish? She is not. She's mad. Why do you rent your own house? Oh, people are going for personal over there, huh? Um, why I rent my own house? The simple reason is, uh, it's a decision that I made that I feel comfortable with. Uh but in carton so that you understand it's uh as as well as renting I'm renting a house. Let's just say that I uh that it's not necessarily my house. So yeah podcast with who? Oh solo podcast is I'm in Jerusalem and there's currently sirens. Oh that's really scary by the way. That's very scary. That's a that's a good podcast idea by the way. How it feels to be in Jerusalem right now. Uh Yankee, if you want to if you want to do a separate conversation, maybe we should do something like that. Are you planning to have kids? Mashem, how much is rent your house for Shabas? So, the house that I rent, how much it is? It's reach out. Send me a DM. I'll send you uh all the details. What was the biggest challenge this past month? Well, that's a good question. The biggest challenge was um restructuring Weber Media. Um restructuring the people in the team, the way we do business and basham, I think it's going very very well. I feel very fulfilled. Um so I'm very excited. I'm very happy with where things are going. Bashem Weber Media hiring. So, Weber Media is constantly looking for talent. If there's somebody that comes and has good talent, something good to bring to the table, then I'm always down. Who was your favorite podcast guest so far? It's so hard to say. 120 guests. Some memorable guests that I had that were like inspiring. I love singers like celebrities. Those I love like a dichki, Gel, Buzz Leaper, Suri Green, those people to me are very memorable. So even the viral ones like uh you know Kimo episode was the most viral episode. So that was pretty cool. Um yeah, I feel like for me to have somebody on the podcast is already a favorite. I'm excited for tomorrow. By the way, we're recording Michlazer. as the possible you uh workshops. I'm very excited for that. Yeah. Does your wife work? She's busy. Yes. Thank you. Guess with who? Myself. What's the bestitz? That's a good question. I don't know. Banitz. There's the Brooklyn spa. There is me and Monty. There's uh Oakroom spa in Williamsburg. There is the Moon Spa, Moonhouse Spa in Jackson. So, I love I I just love Schwvitzing. I love the whole idea. I love how it makes me feel. It's healthy. Um do you have cameras in the house? How do people No, no cameras. Um yeah, I'm I'm in I'm in. Yankees in. Okay. Do you wear PJ? This is This is a regular shirt. Um I think you will be great for street vlogging. So please feel free. Street vlogging. I go around. I do vlogging. I have I need a for my vlog channel. I have a whole channel for vlogs. I need a what to record. If you have a what I can vlog, please comment. We have almost 100 people here. Let's see. What should we do? How do you deal with hard clients? Like people that are never happy no matter how much you'll do to make it right. Um personally, I I don't have these kind of clients in my life. I usually cut them out, fire them before they can leave me because it's uh as the way you ask the question sounds the sh frustrated sound. So it's either boundaries, the simple is boundaries. You call them up and you say and if not never be afraid to lose a client like this. Just the opposite. When you let go of a client like this, you'll get five new healthier clients because you're showing Hashem slash the universe which is you're showing what you're really for. So that's that's what I do. What what I personally do is I get rid of them. Do you have a job for me? What kind of job are you looking for? Every person that asks me, do I have a job for them, I ask them, what are you looking for that I give you a job? It works that you decide what it is that you want to do, what you're passionate about, and based on that you um you try to find a job. If not, it just if not, you just excuse me. If not, then you um you just go from job to job. Grill hard is glazed. Tell me why or what? Why don't you have Why don't I have a what? The conversation. Lots of people have questions. They want to know about this whole possible you. Yeah. Okay. Well, we'll ask the questions. Isn't it right? Did you cook Friday Shabas food? Yes. I made the fish. It came out so beautifully. I posted on my WhatsApp status. Maybe I should post here on uh on Instagram as well. I love making salmon fish for Shabas. This is like my newest thing. Uh, newest. I've been doing it for about a half a year. Mosha Felman taught me the recipe, the original shvita. So, thanks to him. Make another podcast with Naki Yavo, please. Um, maybe I tried when I make the controversial ones, I feel like people just take it out of proportion. They don't necessarily appreciate it. A focus made of the controversy of the conversation. So, even if I bring up a controversial person, of the entertainment focus of the oh it is you know judgments and I feel like it's just not worth it I'm an audience name then why do it why don't you have male workers very simple because majority of the videos the work that we do is to create recipes for certain companies so if you have a male worker that wants to go shopping in a grocery and prepare a brownie Okay. Can take videos of it. Let me know. Okay. How's your mom getting better and better? Why do you have just said what is your official job? I'm the CEO and COO of Weber Media. We run an agency that's here to share stories of specific individuals and companies through social media platforms like Instagram, LinkedIn, even WhatsApp because Azoi Canazai this way they can grow they share their story they have their own platform where they can now a it's good for branding b it's good for for online presence relevancy and c it can also bring sales. So yeah, which car do you plan to take next? The Mercedes GLE. That's what I'm thinking. Audi Q7. Let's see. Vlog. How you service? How you survive when you are poor? Not only when you have the time and money to spend on expensive clothes and dining in. Yeah, good point. Yeah. Does your wife understand the adish? I would say by now mostly. Yes. It's a good idea to vlog. By the way, I try I try very much to vlog. If you look at my channel, the Weber official, you'll see vlogs of me going to my first shows. Uh the first show that I ever spoke, I was like a guest at. Um it's very interesting to see. There's a lot of vlogs over there. Should visit Melbourne, Australia. Yeah, maybe one day. Seems like she does. Yeah, she does understand. How old are you? I am 28. Antisantic questions. You seem stressed and uptight. All good. Um, that's just an uptight. I'm just a little bit tired, but I made the commitment to record podcast. So, we're here to record podcast. Make some more mental health topics podcast. I love your perspective in these podcast you did in the P. Yeah, I agree. I noticed that I shifted a little bit away from there. Uh maybe because I myself feel a little bit better and healthier recently. But the Maka we're doing with Glazer. So that's going to be about mental health. I try very much to bring everybody you know a little bit of all the topics. Take an Audi RSQ8 please. Um, is that like the crossover? I don't like I like a full SUV. Don't take the GLE. Talking from experience. Uh, send me a message if you don't mind because that's a car that I was thinking to take next. What was the thought behind the Stram post view? Yeah, it was views. It's very interesting. People love it and I'm like famous for it. So, I feel like it did its job. It's a great car. The the GLE. Thank you. Okay, good to hear. See, with whom are recording a podcast this late? I'm recording with myself. BMW X7. Yeah, it's a good car. It's very big. I don't like such a good uh I don't like such a big car, such a big SUV. Would you host me on a show? Potentially. Canada. Is it hard for you to speak only English at home? Not at all. I feel like English is uh has become like my first language. I use it in work. I use it uh I used before Weber media I did construction for three four years and I used majority of the time I used English. Uh my family always spoke English. So it's for me it's like a very close second first language. So, it's not so um it's not hard at all. Does your wife have a car? Yes. Why didn't you have women on your show lately? It's a very good question. I I'll address the question because for the Zelbur reason I brought up women and instead mentions on appreciating what women bring to the table and their feminine side and their whether it's healing or business or whatever is people were just focusing on the fact that it was a woman and oh as he's sitting with a woman it was very confusing to people especially my audience has a lot of younger people excuse me 13 14 15 year olds and it's very confusing to them So, for now, I'm taking a break from doing women and do men. And anyways, majority of the podcast were always men. They're more likely to come up on camera. Um, so that's pretty much it. Did you work on yourself? I like to believe so. Yeah. One day you said that you close your phone at 7, the next day you say you work 18 hours a day. Make up your mind. So, it's very simple. Even when I close my phone, I still have either different phones that I can use to go live taka or I can still sometimes work on my computer or take notes or write down things. Um, there's different ways that I work. The concept of shutting the phone is that I don't want people bothering me or I want to be able to talk to the people that matter to me most and are closest to me. So, that's why I shot my phone and I still do that. How's your allergies? I think it's a lot better. I haven't felt congested in a while. I think I think the season is over. I like to believe so. Why do you keep saying you have the biggest Yiddish podcast? Do you know that's far from the truth? You also have the least subscribers from everyone. I don't think boasting about yourself is a nice thing. So, I hear what you're saying. Thank you for that. Um, the way I measure is very simple. I go to the views. There is not that many Yiddisha podcast first of all. So there's about maybe I don't know six or seven podcasts if I can list all right. I'm thinking on top of my head I'm thinking latest talks cast podcast that I love. There's push-up shot and London. There's t from um science. There aren't many very nice guy. games episode. Um, very good podcast. My podcast happens to be has both, but my podcast is mainly any dish. And if you look at the views, every YouTube channel will tell you how many views the channel has. And the fact is that positivity has, I believe at this point, close to two million views, which is more than latest talks or any of these other platforms. Um, so that's how I calculate that it's the most. We also did the most episodes. So I'm I'm calculating it by the number of episodes and by the number of views. I think that that's that's fair to say that would make it a number one podcast. Um, and I'm not here to brag about myself. This is bragging about the audience, the Bashan. We have a tremendous audience of people that enjoy the podcast and I'm grateful for that. So yeah, if you have any questions or disagree with me, please let me know. Okay, do a podcast with Naomi Sati. Check her out. Tell me more about DM. Let's see. What number are you in your family? I'm the oldest. Okay. Which car do your wife drive? Also an Audi. Why don't you take a Tesla? I was thinking about it. Tesla. I don't if they would have maybe a comfortable SUV, then maybe I would do it. I don't like the car. So yeah, by the way, everybody that's joining, welcome, welcome, welcome. Why don't you sit at podcast with men on sofa like you did with women? Um, I'm not sure to what you're referring to. I'm not sure. I I think that I also sat with men on a sofa. I remember we did with GCNY back in the day. So, I don't think there was a difference of where we sat um when it was a man or when it was a woman. If you noticed the difference, maybe it's something that you noticed. You know, what's the point of closing your phone if you have other phones? There's a work phone and there's a private phone. I think every person should have that. Okay. Why are you now? Where are you now? I'm in my house. Are you a spender? I like to I believe that I like to spend my Okay. All right. Mrs. in Jerusalem right now. Yes, I know. Oh, I know. Sorry. Just got out of the shelters. Yeah, very sorry to hear. I hope everybody is safe. Um, yeah. How did you and your wife meet? Oh, so I've shared the story a few times already. We met through Instagram and um first we became friends. We went out and when we noticed that we enjoyed each other's company, we decided let's make a um let's start dating. So we dated for another couple of months and eventually we got engaged for early lately seem to be making mistakes like pina scarta or misuse the word come visit intentionally I know we all make mistakes it's uh hard to say you know do a podcast with your wife maybe maybe one Okay. Who's the next guy that you will interview? Oh, just said very excited for that one. Your answers are spot on. Thank you. Appreciate the compliment. What do you do to control anger? It's a good question. Imm I don't think it's something I've struggled with. So, I think I'm a very calm person. It runs on my family. So, feel grateful for that. Okay. Okay, that's about it. That was very nice. Thank you all for joining. Really appreciate you all for being here. We had hundreds of people that came and go that came and went. You said you'll share marriage still waiting.
