  • Decent Pod

    Great guests and good insights. Dan asks brill questions but with more prep and focus the conversations would be even better. The conversational balance really needs to be weighted more to the guest. Maybe even a tighter edit would improve that. Overall decent little pod! Thanks guys.

  • Awesome business podcast

    I stumbled across this podcast looking for an interview from the chefs at Fallow, and I’ve been hooked ever since. Dan’s interviewed a remarkable array of business owners, and his casual style lends itself to making his guests seem natural and relaxed. This podcast is worth listening to even if you’re not in the restaurant industry. There’s a lot of good lessons about branding, marketing, and the struggles of being a founder.

Ravneet Gill: How To Successfully Open a Restaurant in 2026, Kitchen Bullying, David Blaine PR Stunts, Loving Horrific Customer Complaints
Q: What have you learned about leadership from the kitchen environment?
Leadership in a kitchen requires balancing firmness and empathy, understanding that people bring baggage, and creating a supportive culture that fosters learning from feedback rather than punishing mistakes.
