Spicy Memories - Talking Food & Stuff

On this episode of Spicy Memories, Captain Cook aka Spice Daddy rants about Ghost Kitchens, plant-based mentality, eco-friendly opportunities, etc. It's almost as if this dumbass woke up and was like, "Let me make a solo show about a BUNCH of stuff I have no business talking about as an authority. THAT WILL GET LISTENERS FOR SURE. What a fu**ing dummy. 

Ashley Lanna returns for a FOURTH guest spot on Spicy Memories! Ashley is the host of Lullaby: The Fear Podcast, and while she joins me as we streamed on Instagram live, we discuss podcasting, what goes into it, anxieties that come along with it, and tips for those wanting to start one!

Opening song: Something Else - ShortBus 

It's me children, just me. Spice Daddy Solo (my new stage name) comin at you from an undisclosed location. 

We talk authenticity again, being brave with recipes, jigsaw puzzle cookers, and of course, I find a way to insult AT LEAST a few different categories of people. 

Intro music is my old band, ShortBus. 

Song: Take a Ride

Mixed and mastered by Kevin Legall (he also does that crazy guitar solo) 

In this edition of S P I C Y  M E M O R I E S, I sit down with Tara. Tara is a podcast host, an avid runner, and is the curator of endless beautiful stories from her show "Adopted Babies from China". She sits down with adoptees who tell their stories. Tara agreed to come on my show, which made me extremely happy. I am in a constant search for knowledge of things that I have been ignorant to my entire life. 

Listen to Tara's show!

In this episode, I sit down with someone who has one of the most visually pleasing pages I have come across in a very long time. Phil from @PairedPints makes recipes, pairs the food with craft beer, and has endless golden nuggets of reviews and recipes and food porn. We talk about desert island beers, pairing beer, Star Wars and The Book of Boba Fett, and 90,000 other topics as we go on beautiful tangents.

On this episode of Spicy Memories, I sit down with someone who has one of my all-time favorite voices. Alyssa aka Pebs runs a podcast called Peb Talks. A show that is constantly reminding me to stop talking as much sh*t about myself as I usually do.

Her goal is to spread positivity and if she can get someone like me to talk positively, she's doing something right.

A few months back, Ella Mitchell took her belongings (and her dog Chef) and moved from Los Angeles to Mexico City. As astounding as doing that so quickly is in itself, it's even more astounding how quickly she allowed herself to be immersed into Mexico City life. Her TikTok and Instagram combined show literally hundreds of thousands of people weekly what it is really like to live in Mexico City. She is not a tourist, she gives real prices, she does honest reviews, and she is forever looking for a decent fried chicken sandwich down there. 

As an added bonus, she's incredibly smart and fucking hilarious.
