From Inspiring a 9-Year-Old Chef to Cooking Up Dreams at the Boat Show

from Dishy Dads · host Gary and Jay

This week on The Dishy Dads, Gary and Jay reflect on a powerful moment when a nine-year-old boy told us we were his inspiration to become a chef—nearly bringing us to tears. We look back on our whirlwind summer touring UK food festivals, share our frustrations (and laughs) about teaching kids to read, and preview our upcoming two one-hour live shows at the International Boat Show, where we’ll be bringing some much-needed spice to the stage.We also open up about the highs and lows of building the Winchester Cookery School—from carpenter and electrician setbacks to exciting plans that could see MasterChef winners teaching alongside us. Tune in for inspiration, behind-the-scenes stories, and a taste of what’s next for The Dishy Dads.
