Ep 123: The Fog of War and Humanity with Richard Acritelli and Guest Jeff Brett (Part 1) | hmTv
In this inspiring episode of The Fog of War and Humanity, host Richard Acritelli sits down with Jeff Brett, founder and CEO of King Quality, to explore a life shaped by hard work, service, and community. From his roots in Port Jefferson and his passion for wrestling to building one of the most respected home improvement companies in the country, Jeff shares how lessons from his father — a WWII Navy veteran — continue to guide his business and philanthropic mission.
Jeff reflects on his early days sweeping job sites, the values instilled in him through family and athletics, and how a mindset of “the harder I work, the luckier I get” became the foundation for both personal and professional success. With heartfelt stories of giving back, supporting veterans, and honoring history, this episode is a powerful tribute to blue-collar grit, small-town values, and the American spirit.
Tune in for a conversation full of wisdom, warmth, and purpose — and stay tuned for Part 2.
