Luke Combs comes by the podcast and we get into everything from his early Vine days, the moment he realized music was his path, and how “When It Rains It Pours” changed his career. We talk about the wild gift that Garth Brooks gave him, and what it’s like going from a regular guy writing songs in Nashville to selling out stadiums. We also get into his new album, The Way I Am, who he would have in his boy band, and when he got Pretty Womaned in Beverly Hills. Buy Luke’s new album, The Way I Am - ...

This one’s dedicated to my daughter Ila–because if she were here, she would be losing her mind.

While I’m searing steak and building the most aggressive tacos possible, we talk about growing up in the punk scene, the art behind skateboard decks, and how three totally differen...

During South Beach Wine & Food Festival, I did a LIVE Something’s Burning for an audience of 10’s with Ja Rule and Ana Navarro. We talked about Ja’s music, Challah bread, and maybe a little politics. Jerk chicken sandwiches were made, music was played, and the audience stuck around, so I call that a success!

I get to go inside the creative subconscious of Maynard James Keenan with him and his band mates from Puscifer, Mat Mitchell and Carina Round. And, I had no idea how fun (and funny) it would actually be. Labia hunting, giant lizards, and good wine are all on the menu. Plus polenta and pork tenderloin. And, we’re putting Maynard’s own wine and coffee to good use in the recipes!
