Today, Rob Bates and Victoria Gamalski talk with Paul Schneider, co-owner of Twist.

Okay. talk with Paul Schneider, co-owner of Twist. Hey, everyone. Welcome to the jewelry district. This is Victoria Gimelski, editor-in-chief of

JCPK and JCP Online.com. calling in from Los Angeles, and I'm with

Rob Bates, news director of J-CK and J-CKOnline.com, calling in from New York City. I'm a little

scratchy. Sorry. Don't be sorry. We're all scratchy this time of year. Totally makes sense.

How are you? Did you do anything for Halloween or?

You know, just did a little trick-or-treating.

My neighborhood is swarmed with hordes of children, so it's always fun to pass out.

And of course, Nico, my almost four-year-old, you know, proclaimed it's his favorite day of the year.

So he prowled around the neighborhood as Spider-Man and just for like an hour or so.

And now we're dealing with the aftermath of huge amounts of candy in the house. So that's fun.

And what about you? Yeah, we went locally in New York, all the delis hand out candy and stuff.

And yeah, it was nice. I remember when Mikey was that age and he barely knew what candy was and he didn't

understand the concept of trick-or-treating.

So I think Nico's way ahead of him.

Wow.

Well, well, well done you because I deal with can I have candy as a question 20 times a day.

So good for you.

Anyway, well, to spare your voice, which sounds totally fine to me, Rob.

I will just segue into our guest today. Many people know him because he's been honored. His business

has been honored numerous times in the trade by the trade. So many of you will know him. Paul
