Episode 4: Al Frugoni

A conversation w my guy Al Frugoni, aka the king of open fire. Coming from Argentina, Al’s been a huge mentor and friend to me for years, so getting to sit down and really talk through his journey was special. We got into everything… how he made the jump from Argentina to the US, building businesses from the ground up, getting punched in the face by COVID, and still finding ways to adapt and keep moving forward. The dude is the definition of resilient. We also talked about how social media completely changed the game, why cooking over open fire brings people together in a way nothing else does, and how community, family, and real relationships are at the center of everything he does. Honestly this episode felt more like two friends catching up than an interview. A lot of laughs, a lot of perspective, and a reminder that the best things in life usually happen around good food and good people.

Episode 1: Jared Babb

Episode 1 is LIVE and we wasted ZERO time getting unhinged 😤🔥 Ty helps me kick it off with a Louisiana weekend recap... great food, bad decisions, and somehow we end up deep in the trenches of neighborhood beef. HOA smoke?? Oh yeah… we’re talking about it. Then I bring on my FIRST EVER guest, my guy Jared Babb. We go back to when we met at Memphis in May 3 years ago cooking with Al Frugoni. Within minutes of meeting, we’re shirtless, running wild through Memphis like absolute degenerates. That’s when I knew… yeah, this dude’s sticking around. From there? Chaos. We get weird, we get honest, talk about unfulfilled dreams of sports success, the pitfalls of fatherhood, and dive into the most UNDERRATED BBQ essentials that nobody talks about—but everyone should. No gatekeeping over here. ALSO, keep your ears open for the theme song 👀 First 25 people who can tell me where it’s from are getting a sticker sent straight to their house. No excuses. It’s laughs, it’s stories, it’s “how did we even get here?”
