In the debut episode of The Elevate Show with Jason and Chad, the tables are turned. Instead of their usual role interviewing leaders in the luxury outdoor living industry, hosts Jason Brownlee and Chad Christenson take the hot seat as they’re interviewed by longtime friend Vince Ambrosetti—a storyteller, musician, and natural conversationalist with a gift for pulling out meaningful (and hilarious) moments. What unfolds is less a formal podcast and more a candid, bourbon-sipping conversation filled with laughter, unexpected stories, and the kind of authenticity that immediately sets the tone for what this show is all about.As Vince digs into Jason and Chad’s backgrounds, listeners get an inside look at how two respected industry leaders found their paths—Jason through landscape architecture and design, Chad through construction and custom pools—and how a shared frustration with “how things are done” sparked a friendship and a mission. They talk openly about competition, craftsmanship, mentorship, and why elevating the entire industry matters more than individual wins. Along the way, the episode is peppered with unforgettable side stories—from airline seat strategies to Vince nearly singing at Princess Diana’s funeral and ultimately performing at Mother Teresa’s—making the conversation as entertaining as it is insightful.This intro episode isn’t just about credentials or resumes; it’s about values. Integrity over shortcuts. Education over ego. Joy, humor, and humanity alongside serious work. By the end, you don’t just know what Jason and Chad do—you understand why they do it, and why The Elevate Show exists in the first place. If you’re looking for a podcast that blends industry insight with real friendship, big laughs, and thoughtful perspective, this episode is the perfect place to start.
