Welcome to The Tune'd In Podcast!!!!! (Formerly Known as Dussé & Backwoods) I'm your host TUNDEEEEEE!! Aka Chocolate Papí aka TunGotJokes Twitter/IG/TikTok: @Tungotjokes Special Guest: @CHEFWILLJONES504 On this episode, we sit down and talk to with a native of New Orleans and Personal Chef for some of todays biggest sports athletes, Chef Will Jones. Our conversation first starts off talking about how Chef Jones grew up in New Orleans, and where his passion for cooking initial came from. Chef explains that outside of this natural interest in cooking because of being from the south, he went to college for business management. But it was one day that he saw a man walking around campus with the checker pants that culinary students and people who cook at restaurants wear and it really intrigued him. Chef Jones later goes on to reveal to us that he was not only inspired by the guy in the checker pants but he also had a older brother who cooked and another brother who was in the streets, who always looked out for him and push him to do positive things with his life. We then transition to a new topic, when our Co-Host T-Reg asks him about how he was effected by "Hurricane Katrina". Chef tells us that the hurricane was the best and worst thing that could've happened to him because he had to evacuate his home and leave everything behind, but also got a sign from God to move to Atlanta, and that's when his life changed drastically. And while being in Atlanta, he was working at a very popular restaurant where a lot of celebrities used to come to eat. After building connections and relationships in Atlanta, unfortunately his mother got sick and evidently passed away, but he then moved back to New Orleans and capitalize on his skills and connections which eventually got him cooking for the likes of star athletes like Reggie Bush, and now being Anthony Davis's personal chef. Like usual, our listeners are definitely in for a treat like always, this is one you do not want to miss! So sit back and enjoy the crazy world of The Tune'd In Podcast. Yay! Yay!
