About Red Bank Hustle and Red Bank Green
🎙️ A podcast with local artists, entrepreneurs, and dreamers
Red Bank Hustle is a hyperlocal podcast from redbankgreen — the twenty-year-old, award-winning, scrappy-as-hell storytelling machine of Red Bank, NJ.
It exists to share the stories of people who’ve “made it” — acheiving their own definition of success. Not influencers or talking heads. Just the kinds of people who worked to make it happen and have something honest, helpful, or hopeful to pass on.
We believe that every guest has a hero’s journey: early sparks, challenges, breakthroughs, and lessons that matter to someone coming up behind them. This show is about making space for that — especially for the creatives and entrepreneurs at the Jersey Shore who are still in the thick of it.
✨ Our First Guest: Tim McLoone
Founder of The Rum Runner. The Running Store. Creator of Holiday Express. Local icon.
We kicked things off with Tim McLoone, who opened up about music, leadership, service, and building a life with purpose. His story captures what Red Bank Hustle is all about: doing big things close to home — and staying true to what really matters.
