Chopped Liver on the Beach
Cut from the Same Stone
This week, Benji and Avi enter the mysterious and fascinating world of international diamond dealing. They sit down with Elliot and Dov Tannenbaum, the father and son team that runs Leo Schachter Diamonds, one of the world's largest diamond manufacturers.
We cover a lot of ground here: the history, the characters, the secrets of the trade, and the unique challenges ahead. We also find out why Benji once spent a week peering into a shower drain.
- For a taste of 47th Street in the late 1980s check out the hamish documentary, "Dealers among Dealers."
- For the worst camp song ever written, referenced by Benji in the intro, take a listen.
