EP 13 - Cooking & Entertaining Through the Grief
from Overachieving Shitshow · host Dr. Kate Rodriguez
Long before he was hosting a ridiculous Facebook cooking show where the "surprise taster" was his best friend Sam every single week, Matt Stevens was a high school kid in Portland, Texas renting dance halls and chartering 50-seat buses to Luckenbach.In this laugh-out-loud but surprisingly deep episode, Dr. Kate talks to Matt about what happens when you spend your life managing big personalities (like Joan Rivers and Garth Brooks) and finally need a therapeutic outlet of your own. They talk about the freedom of acting crazy on camera, the peace found in a rural Buddhist temple, fighting for the Coastal Bend AIDS foundation in the conservative 1980s, and how to hold onto the memory of lost loved ones through pure, unadulterated humor.
