Word.
When I first got into Seattle, the only cooking I did was for my gf. I was jonezin’ for the kitchen, but there’s only so much you can do when you’re a suit 8 hours a day, 5 days a week.
So when I first checked out his podcasts, I really felt as though I was in the kitchen again. It’s just a bunch of friends and industry heads that have a few beers with mics on. They talk about food/restaurant trends, talk shit, crack jokes and embody what it’s really like to cook for a living. It felt like home.
He’s one of the reasons how I came to cook again. Thanks man.
