In this episode of On the Mic with Joe Cee, I sit down with my good friend Angel Solis, owner of 399 Pizza in Glendora, for a deeper conversation about business, family, marriage, fatherhood, and the real cost of building something meaningful.

The first time Angel came on the podcast, we talked about his origin story, his family, how 399 Pizza started, and what it took for him to open his own location. This time, we go into what happens after the business is built.

We talk about long hours, work-life balance, learning how to step away from the business, trusting your team, working with your wife, creating content, and the difference between working in the business and working on the business.

One of the most powerful parts of this conversation is hearing Angel reflect on his daughters, the moments he has missed, the sacrifices he has made, and what he hopes they understand about why he works so hard.

This episode is for business owners, parents, husbands, entrepreneurs, restaurant owners, and anyone trying to build something meaningful without losing themselves or the people they love in the process.

Thank you for listening and being part of these conversations.

Stay blessed, smile every chance you get, and I love y’all.

In this episode of On the Mic with Joe Cee, Carlos and I have a fun, curious, and slightly ridiculous conversation about UFOs, UAPs, aliens, government disclosure, and what we would actually do if aliens showed up tomorrow.

With recent UAP files and videos being released by the U.S. government, we wanted to ask the questions regular people actually think about:

Are UFOs real? Is the government slowly preparing us for disclosure? Are aliens already here? Would we still go to work if they landed? Could they be hiding deep in the ocean? And most importantly… what do aliens eat?

We also talk about The Age of Disclosure documentary, the difference between UFOs and UAPs, the Mariana Trench, AI as a possible future threat, Jon Jones fighting an alien, and why humanity might just keep going to work no matter what happens.

This episode is not about claiming we have all the answers. It’s about curiosity, skepticism, comedy, and two friends trying to make sense of one of the weirdest topics in the world.

Everyone calls themselves an entrepreneur now, but what does that actually mean?

In this episode of On the Mic with Joe Cee, Joe sits down with co-host Carlos Gonzalez for a relaxed but honest conversation about entrepreneurship, small business ownership, self-employment, and what it really takes to build something of your own.

They talk about the difference between owning a business and actually operating like an entrepreneur, the reality of booth rent in the barber industry, customer acquisition, work ethic, systems, leadership, money management, taxes, risk, and the side of business ownership that people do not always see online.

Joe shares lessons from owning The Original Clip Joint Barbershop, including building shop culture, creating systems, managing people, learning from mistakes, and understanding that good work alone is not always enough to grow a business.

Carlos also shares his experience building Anteater Home Solutions, a company that helps new homeowners simplify the process of setting up home services, and how creating value, building relationships, and taking risks have shaped his own view of entrepreneurship.

In this episode, we talk about:

• Entrepreneur vs business owner vs self-employed

• Why having a title in your bio does not automatically make you an entrepreneur

• The truth about booth rent and barber business ownership

• Why slow time should become client acquisition time

• How systems allow a business to run without you always being there

• The hidden stress, risk, and responsibility behind business ownership

• Taxes, money management, and lessons learned the hard way

• Work ethic, customer service, leadership, and building real business value

• Why culture matters in a barbershop and in any small business

• The difference between posting like an entrepreneur and operating like one
