  • Summary

  • To the outside observer, success can seem like an unattainable goal that only those chosen by the grace of fate can enjoy. Rarely do we get to see behind the curtain at the broken wreckage we call "failures" that the scaffolding these successes are built upon. However, I love the idea of mistakes and failures. A quick look at my life will illustrate that fact, and I want to talk about it. On Fails, Falls, & F-Ups, I interview amazing, successful people about all the times they were amazingly unsuccessful. We probe the scabs and the scars, we fall and we fail and we pick ourselves right back up and go at it again. These aren't stories about winning, they are about how losing has shaped our ability to grow and succeed. These are tales about meeting adversity with grace, or determination, or humor... Whatever you need to get you over that hump. On this show, we don't refuse to lose, we embrace it.

  • Chipping away at Chef Al Romano

    Chipping away at Chef Al Romano
    Aug 12 2022

    This week on Fails, Falls and F-Ups I talk to culinary educator and long time bad ass Chef Al Romano,definitely a man you wouldn't want to mess with when he is holding his chain saw, especially if you resemble an ice block. Chef Al Romano comes clean about what life is like in the food service trenches, opening several businesses and the emotional and physical toll that being a Chef and an Ice Carver can take on one's body. If you've ever thought about trying for the "glamorous" career of being a head chef, you'll want to hear what Chef Al has to say.

    Chef might be taking to social media like a fish to a bicycle but you can ride along with him at these links:
