100 FOOD FIGHTS: BACK AT THE TABLE! | Episode 100 Part 2.

Blue Devil Food Fight | 30 Years of Coaching, Family, Recovery & Life Lessons

This week on the Food Fight Podcast, I sit down with my cousin, Tony DiMattia, as he closes the book on an incredible 30-year run coaching Old Forge Blue Devils baseball. We talk about growing up in the same neighborhood, the importance of family, and the memories that shaped us both in Old Forge. From local food favorites to stories from the ballfield, this episode is packed with nostalgia and hometown pride. But the conversation goes deeper than baseball. Tony shares insights from his career working within the criminal justice system, where he has spent years helping people navigate addiction, incarceration, recovery, and the difficult road back into society. We discuss the realities of substance abuse, the revolving door many people face between addiction and jail, and what it takes to break that cycle. A conversation about family, community, second chances, and the people who help guide others through some of life’s toughest battles. ⚾ Family. Baseball. Recovery. Real Talk.

The Refining of Chef Chad Gelso: From Pittston to Europe, Hell’s Kitchen, and Home Again. | Ep.103

This week on DiMattia’s Food Fight, I sit down with Chef Chad Gelso of The Refinery. We talk about growing up in the Oregon section of Pittston, leaving America after high school to travel and work throughout Europe, and learning from chefs and kitchens along the way. From there, Chad takes us through his years in Philadelphia’s food scene before eventually returning home to NEPA to help elevate dining in his hometown. As a longtime fan of Hell’s Kitchen, I was especially curious about his experience on the show, and Chad gives us a behind-the-scenes look at what it was really like competing under Gordon Ramsay. Most importantly, we talk about the role food plays in our lives. Food brings people together. It creates memories, celebrates milestones, comforts us during difficult times, and connects us to our families, cultures, and communities. It’s a conversation about food, family, travel, hard work, and finding your way back home. Full episodes available Wednesday at 8:15 PM on YouTube (same name as this page) and everywhere you listen to podcasts. 🍽️🥊 Thank You To My Sponsors!

Build-N-Athlete: BUILDING ATHLETES FOR OUR COMMUNITY! | Episode 101

On this episode of the DiMattia’s Food Fight Podcast, I sit down with the team from Build‑N‑Athlete to talk about the importance of youth sports and the impact they can have on a child’s life. Not every family has the financial ability to afford registration fees, uniforms, or equipment costs for their children to play sports — and that’s where Build-N-Athlete steps in for the community. Their mission is to help break financial barriers so every child has the opportunity to play, grow, and succeed through sports. We talk about community, opportunity, mentorship, and why investing in kids through athletics can change lives both on and off the field. Building one athlete at a time for the community.

100 FOOD FIGHTS: BACK AT THE TABLE! | Episode 100 Part 2.

For part two of episode 100, Mike joins me again along with my partner in the Food Fight Podcast, Frank Sepko. We talk about the beginning of it all — me walking into ConversionWorx Media just looking for someone to edit my videos… and somehow walking out with a partnership and a booked studio that helped launch a whole new era of Food Fight. The transformation from Food Fight Podcast to DiMattia’s Food Fight Podcast brought the brand full circle. We also dig into diets in America, and Frank talks about one of his biggest passions right now — becoming healthier day after day through the carnivore diet and changing his lifestyle. Join us for part two of episode 100… and join us for the next 100 episodes.
