I sit down with fellow podcaster, small business owner, and newsletter writer Brian Ondrako to talk about our journey to writing newsletters in beehiiv. He started his podcast, Just Get Started, in 2017 and has published over 450 episodes. He's now leveraging his sales expertise to help others through his newsletter. It was great to talk about our creative journeys and get really tactical with how we think about newsletter writing and strategy.

I sat down with Samantha Kotey, founder of Auntie's Ice Cream, and a lawyer by day. We talked about her journey into making ice cream and then into making a business. Her flavors paint the picture of the African diaspora, inviting your taste buds along for the ride. We explore what it means to be an Auntie, how to create a food product that is intentional and inclusive, and her thoughts on trademarking her brand.

In this episode, Zebbie Carney shares their journey of establishing Eugene's Hot Chicken in Birmingham. Starting from humble beginnings with a food truck at local breweries and companies to opening a restaurant in Uptown near the BJCC, our conversation discusses the challenges and rewards of transitioning to a brick-and-mortar location. Zebbie compares his restaurant's growth with established names like Hattie B's and talks about the essence of creating a unique menu, including offerings like local beers and fried fish. We also cover the basics of maintaining high standards, systematizing operations, and fostering a community-centric atmosphere. The episode provides valuable insights into navigating the restaurant business, from planning and execution to how he handles challenges such as COVID-19 and civil unrest.
