Moe Daddy

All right, I'm going to clap and then we're going to go. What's up everybody, this is Matt Cunningham and today I have with me Mike Gallagher of ... What's going on brother, how are you? I'm good, how are you doing? Pretty good, pretty good. So tell everybody first while we're at it where you're from, parish, high school, college, those sort of things. Get that out of the way. I'm from Home Circle, St. Jerome's, Father Judge, and then with the Holy Family. Yeah, Father Judge boy. I remember Mike when I knew that Father Judge, so me and Mike, we know each other from growing up. His dad is friends with my uncle. They're both from the same part of Ireland, so when we were kids we used to run around and things of that nature. So I remember Mike vaguely where I was ... That's one of the times I do feel older than you. Now I don't feel like that. But I do remember you running around like a little guy in high school, Father Judge, that's funny. Little guy. All right, cool. So first off, this is Mike. He is the owner of Gallagher Masonry. So that is basically kind of why you're on the podcast today. So how did you get into the masonry business and sort of things like that? So when I was about 14, I started working for my dad in the summers. And- Shout out Northeast Stucco. Just kept doing that in the summers until high school, then during college, I'd work from during the days, go to school at night. Then I did a little stint in the union, and then I decided to start my own thing. So does everyone who's come from Ireland just come right out of the womb, just ready to just do masonry and stuff like that? Yeah. They're all born with a trail. What's the thing called? What's the little- The trail. Yeah. All born with a trail in their hand. They just come out with a trail, and they're like, yo, who needs some stuff pointed, you know? That's right. But, oh, the other thing I wanted to say is congrats. Mike is a new dad of two, right? Yes, sir. Thank you. Wow. Shout out to them. I wanted to also, before I knew, I wanted to shout out Ashley. So Ashley is your fiance. She deals with not only two boys, God bless. But you. That's right. Equal as a handful, believe it or not. But yeah, I have a profound respect for that. So my family is five, four boys, and my dad. And so it's just, I really respect any parents that are raising all that group of boys. Yeah. Yeah. Wait till they get to high school, dude. You're going to have some fun with that. But, so you got into the masonry business with your dad, right? So like, basically, is that where you learned to do things? Like, were you kind of like, you know, you're going to have to do this and that and that? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
