LEGENDARY BARBERSHOP & DINER with New York Nico | Local Legends | Brad Leone

- How'd Nick Heller a.k.a. New York Nico get so good at making friends?? He's got 'em all over New York, everybody knows him, and he never seems to have any trouble chatting with just about anybody. Isn't NYC supposed to be full of jerks? How does he do it? Are you tryin to improve your friendship game? Stick with me and Nico for a day around Washington Square Park - for a very special TWO PART EPISODE!
Full disclosure, we're still working on the second part, but it's excellent. We'll put the link right here when it's ready ⬇️⬇️⬇️
• STREET GOLF & VINYL RE...
First stop, Cozy Soup & Burger on Broadway to try some legendary Split Pea Soup and meet with owner, John Stratidis. Next stop, I get my hair cut at the famous Astor Place Hairstylists and get a behind the scenes look at Big Mike's art gallery.
Lessons Learned [so far]:
#1 - Make sure your neighbor is OK! Are they dipping their hot dog in their beer at a sporting event? Check in! You never know when someone might be struggling, even if they don't say it.
#2 - Don't judge a book by its cover. Don't jump to conclusions before you know someone, and don't rag on your friends if they step out of their comfort zone - like, if they decide to start painting fine art, or they decided to wear a banana costume at all times, for example.
Make sure to buy Nico’s book coming out in 2024, New York Nico and Friends’ Guide to NYC

Brad Leone is straight up building an EMPIRE. Another great video!
15:07 My man chomped on that blow dryer air. Golden retriever energy confirmed protect at all cost
Brad starting his own youtube channel is the best thing that ever happened to youtube. absolutely love it!
14:36 Speedy just crafted a jaw line for Brad like a legend. Brad who? Brad Pitt.
Love all of Brads adventures. He’s unexpectedly teaching ppl how to love each other despite differences ❤
holy shit brad looks so good after the cut he looks so much younger
Speedy did Brad a "glow-up." Like school picture day Calvin. Neat. 🎩 🤪
The chef Boyardee joke was actually top tier lmfao
AND the paintings are absolutely insane
I hope Brad keeps doing these, I don’t think I ever watched a couple videos that made me feel so “good” in years. Kindness and respect go a long way and these 2 videos are a perfect example of that.
Brad now expanding into genuine life coaching. What a guy
Local legends rated 10/10
15:40 “awesome haircut” (has the hat on) 😂
God if you are out there listening, please make the internet more like this, with more people like this, doing stuff like this.
Cheers for this vid Brad. Good stuff. Local Legends is f'ing great
Brad's channel here is one of the best things to come out in food, cooking, & travel in recent years, and this series showcases the best in people from all over. Love it, Brad!❤
So happy to see you doing so much fun stuff after BA; it's almost like how it was 3 or 4 yeas ago, but so much more is going on.
I'm calling it now, this channel and maybe even this series alone is going to be one of the biggest things on youtube with food/culture in a couple years. It has all the fun of a mini-doc mixed with travel vlogs. Fantastic work from Brad and all of the crew!
I mean… the positivity RADIATES through the screen. Brad can do no wrong in my eyes ✨✨✨
Crying and wheezing of laughter from speedy blow drying Brad and Brad is biting the air like a dog
Like a lab or golden ❤️😂
The haircut was actually fire 🔥 😊
"He gotta back to Rikers!" Classic NYC chirp
Oh my god Brad this is seriously one of your most amazing videos. I never feel more fuzzy and warm inside than when I’m watching your videos, and as I say this has to be one of the best yet.
The editor deserves so much credit, whoever she is
I actually laughed out loud at BRAD WHO ? BRAD PITT ! hahaha legend
Brad is seriously the next generations Anthony Bourdain. Man is the definition of a people person uniting us all over food good good times and great people.
This made me cry 😅 speedy mad him look GOOD. Shat myself when he started clipping his eyebrows 😂
Looking Fresh Brad! You look great! 👍🏼
I absolutely agree that making friends as an adult is extremely hard, in my mid-20s, I have 3 close friends whom I don’t live close to at all. So I don’t hang out with anyone in person.
I love this video, and I don't get pulled into a TH-cam experience where my attention isn't undivided. It was undivided watching this. Please Keep it up!!
brad you are so lovely.i hope my toddler grows up to look up to you as a role model ❤
Dude, just started to watch the episode and my 6 year old sock-slid into the kitchen on the last line and exclaimed with glee, “LOCAL LEGEND!!”.🤟🤟
ur team is incredible Brad. almost every episode is something i never thought i'd be interested in, but within a minute i'm completely invested.
long live Brad and his merry band of misfits
Holy shat, Brad. Y'all did it again. GREAT episode ❤
This episode is hitting me extra deep today.... I lost one of my life long friends to f**tanyl od yesterday... we're only in our 30s .... I reached out and wrote to her in jail last month to tell her I still loved her very much and that I wasn't angry with her anymore.... she got out last week and passed away this week..... I'm so glad I reached out and told her I loved her before it was too late..... I hope if anyone reading this has a loved one who's experiencing addiction and that if you may not be on the best terms with them regarding how they are behaving and the person addiction can turn them into, I just hope that you also get the chance to tell them you love them one last time..... because we never know when that last time is going to be 💔
The crew on this show are the real legends. Holy shit you’re good.
Dear Brad, don't Stop, appreciate you, your videos are inspiring to say the least, sincerely, from another one of your many, many fans
Class video. What a bunch of character in that barber shop. Thanks for another great video brad !
You shine up well, Brad!
So many stars in this video!!! I’ve heard that the people behind the scenes are super lovely which just makes this even more fun to watch. Shout out to all the perfect angels doing god’s work and putting up with weird Brad.
'Amazing haircut bud' - puts cap back on. This is why we love Brad 😅
Brad, making the world a better place one fermented dish at a time
Awesome video & Love the idea of this Series Brad!
As someone who has recently moved to a new country and over the age of 25 I found making new friends extremely difficult. This sort of series is just what I’m looking for 👍
Nico had me in stitches 😂
Brad becomes... Valtteri Bottas without the mullet.
The mustache really suits him.
hell ya. Brad, I would love to just see you and your high school buddies chat.
I love everything Brad does, even growing his own weed.
That cut looks great on ya brad :)
I'm fairly sure Brad doesn't need a Nico to make friends with everyone ever.
this was freaking awesome!! thanks for sharing a side of NY we don't get to see....you're the best Brad!!!
The guy running the cozy soup and burger is a class act. What a charismatic human
edit: I finished the video and pretty much everyone in the video is charismatic. good vid
Although the concept could be applied to wherever in the world you're at, THANK YOU for reminding us all what an epic place New York is. To think there's a local legend on almost every corner, you just gotta look for it. WHOA🤯. You're doing good Brad. Real good.
a new video from brad always brightens up my day ❤
took the words outta my mouth
Lovely example of the importance of positive human connection. Thank you for putting this out into the universe.🤟
This show is amazing. I love the energy and positivity in this series.
I wish i could like this twice! ❤
This video has no right being this good! Who would have throught someone who was rotting food would make such an amazing video about people!
Can't wait to see what the future holds for you Brad!
Hands down best channel on TH-cam
bruh that hair cut is crazy, millionaire brad fr
Not sure how I found you but I love it. Love the energy my man.
Man I just spent a year and a half in Maine and Brad is the definition of perfect vibes from Maine ❤️ sucks we couldn’t cross paths!
I am loving this series!
I never knew Brad could use an eyebrow trim until Speedy did it and then it was like wow Brad should've been trimming his eyebrows all these years! xD
I love all this love!
This was great. Thanks, Brad!
Speedy with the top tier Pyrex dad joke.
John is so funny 🤣
I'll fly in and out of New York for this! Super Gyros in Châteauguay, Qc, Canada are the BEST!
Brad lookin spiced up post-speedy !! Loved speedy
petition to make the intro song available as a long-form song?? I'm obsessed with it, gives off so many laid-back relaxing vibes! Which I very much need atm.
Great episode brad! ❤
Beautiful video
Before watching this video, I literally just ate a homemade pea soup. What a coincidence!
good job. hair and food. delicious.
I appreciate you Brad
great one, next one looks awesome too!
Speedy needs his own show
I just absolutely love the intro song to local legends. Theres just something about a man singing those high notes at the end that i adore... ❤
Also, Brad, I had to come back and edit my comment, but that before and after picture was epic. Now, you look like Jay Gatsby or Nick Carroway, whichever character you prefer... lol
love ya brad!
Whoop Whoop, I did it backwards but it was an Epic 2 uploads 🎉.
JO JO IN VT 💞
New York Nico an icon! Brad an absolute legend! We LOVE this collab. We can't wait for you to come to Lynn, MA to meet the local legend that is Julio at One Mighty Mill test bakery and mill.
Love this, Brad!
More like this Please!
this made me emotional. its so wholesome 🧡
Best show on TH-cam.... Keep it up Brad!
Speedy is amazing!
Paint a picture of a guy dunking a hot dog in his beer.
Wow! Can you imagine editing this?? Must take so much work!
When we were in our 20's we were like a bunch of friendly puppies; always ready to make a new friend; the more the merrier. Man, try moving to a new town in a new country at the age of 50! It is so hard to find peers who are looking or open to making new friends. I had most success developing friendships with other newcomers, and with people 20 years younger than me.
This is inspiring
LOVE!
When I'm an old grandpa in 2055, I'll tell my grandkids how I watched Brad Leone on the old TH-cams from 2023 when he met the famous painter Big Mike and Speedy from Astor Hair.
I love local legends
banger video
Brad looked like a straight up Pinkerton
12:38 he smoked that blunt and said let's get to snippin lmaoo
This episode is so damn wholesome! Watched it all with a huge smile on my face
Speedy reminds me of my coworker at the Junkyard.
I would love to see Brad cast as the Dude in Big Lebowski 2
i hit the like, it still shows zero?? FIRST!!! lmao
SWEET ,UPLIFTING VIDEO,THANK YOU ALL..BEST WISHES..
too bad Brad loves his cap so much because that 'do deserved to be shown off!
hell yeah
cue that badass intro!!!!
