Soft Bar Snafu
During season 10 of Summer House, which filmed in summer 2025, Carl revealed that Kyle didn’t spend money on his Recent York City non-alcoholic bar, Soft Bar, which opened that very same 12 months.
“We’ve got some serious, like, sophisticated investors. We’ve got individuals who work, or founders of non-alcoholic firms which have invested,” Carl shared with newbie Ben Waddell during a March 2026 episode, noting that his Summer House costar Jesse Solomon was amongst his “close family and friends” who put money into the business.
Carl then confessed that Kyle didn’t contribute, explaining, “To be honest he’s got a lot other s*** with Loverboy,” so he understood.
Carl later revealed that Kyle not supporting him actually hurt his feelings after he invested in Loverboy throughout the first 12 months of Kyle launching the corporate.
“I invested $15,000 in 2019 in Loverboy,” Carl claimed. “I didn’t have a variety of a refund in 2019, but I just believed in him a lot and I knew the ability of what he was constructing. I actually felt like there was something there.”
He added, “I had hoped perhaps for a similar in return. But [Kyle] was like, ‘I’m just not ready to speculate.’” Carl then admitted that “the message it sends is kinda confusing.”
Kyle, for his part, told the cameras that Loverboy was in trouble financially so he couldn’t help Carl along with his business enterprise.
