Trevor DeBlase from the legendary Keller Williams real estate team in Franklin Square, Long Island and comedian Tom Kelly dig into the real stuff nobody tells you about moving from NYC to Long Island — the language, the roads, the neighborhoods, the sirens that sound like the zombie apocalypse, and why Long Islanders give directions like you’re supposed to know every street name.

The first in-studio podcast of 2026 kicks off with reflection, rebellion, and one perfectly unhinged act of digital chaos. In this episode of The Tom Kelly Show, Tom talks about: *Turning five years of podcasting into joy again *How success can quietly kill creativity *Why doing things just for fun works better than chasing virality *His most viral subway moment (and why it happened by accident) *Gently rebelling against authority, tradition, and himself *And finally… hitting “Reply All” on a stranger’s holiday email newsletter
Is he the Soup Nazi of Long Island pizza… or the working man’s anti-hero? 🍕 Tom heads to Phil’s Pizza of Syosset, Long Island to sit down with Anthony Lorino—the guy behind those viral “no-nonsense pizza man” Instagram clips with millions of views. Anthony’s rants about napkin hoarders, Yelp trolls, and people who don’t have any common sense as his videos have become unexpected therapy for anyone who’s ever worked in customer service. But behind the attitude is a smart small-business owner who built a monster social media following from scratch at 53, learned how to edit his own videos, and now preaches one simple message: your content has to come from the heart.
This has become my “Signature Bit” when I perform on Long Island. I’ve actually kept it off the internet because I wanted the bit to be fresh when they come to live shows.
Without starting any feuds, there have been a few Long Island comedians starting to use the word “Massapequa Moms” and start their own Mom’s group jokes. So . . .it’s time to put my bit out there. Maybe someone will see it and put me on TV.
I joined the Massapequa Mom’s Facebook Mom’s Group because my we needed some help with my grandmother. Some of the other content I’ve seen over the years has been inspiring . . . and at time just plain crazy. Thank you for having me ladies!
