Episode description

My friend Ru sent me a message that said "Hey dude. I don't know this guy personally but he's THE pizza guy on the beach in Queens" about Sean so I was immediately intrigued. I sent a message soon after and immediately connected with Sean's positivity. Join us for this uplifting chat about sobriety within the industry, how being kind to yourself will lead to kindness elsewhere, and find out what Sean's favorite slice and sip combo is.

Born and raised in Rockaway Beach, NY Sean Aiken has recently returned home with his wife and their young child, bringing a passion for creating pizza and a desire to help build community. Follow him on Instagram @seanypizza or head to www.seanyslices.com
