    • Mario has been friends with REM front man, Michael Stipe since grade school. They remain great friends, doing television specials together, to this day.
    • Mario threw the green flag last June to start the NASCAR event at Pocono Raceway in Long Pond, Pennsylvania. Tens of thousands of fans began to chant "Molto Mario", referring to his hit television show.

    • Mario: My family is Italian. When I was a child we would pick blackberries, baby onions, and all kinds of produce and preserve them. Food was natural, it made sense. Working in Italy changed my life and now I try to bring it to New York. I learned so much about keeping things simple. That makes great food.
