Episode Two is hot out of the oven fresh, with award-winning chef and culinary change agent, Chef Mavis Jay Sanders. I so enjoyed meeting Chef Sanders during her James Beard award-winning weekend in 2022 and was immediately drawn to her authentic spirit and infectious passion for being the change she wanted to see in the industry. At that moment I knew I wanted to collaborate and keep the conversation going for the food and the culture.
So pull up your chair and take a listen as we chat crudite style "about all the things" from our weekend in the Chi to the Black farming crisis, and how her Dad is going to make me one of his famous pound cakes - wait did he say that our was I dreaming?? You'll have to take a listen to find that out and more about the deliciously accomplished Chef Mavis Jay Sanders aka GRITS Brooklyn-style! 
Cornbread hugs!

Special thanks to my partners Rockefeller Center Newsstand Studios, Tishman Speyer, and my awe-mazing engineer, Joseph Hazan for being the home and so much more for Cornbread and Conversations.

The Brothers Ortiz

The Brothers Ortiz

The Brothers Ortiz is the story of two brothers–both successful, but in very different ways. Gabe Ortiz becomes a third-highest ranking officer in all of Texas while his younger brother Larry climbs the ranks in Puro Tango Blast, a notorious Texas Prison gang. Gabe doesn’t know all the details of his brother’s nefarious dealings, and he’s made a point not to ask, to protect their relationship. But when Larry is murdered during a home invasion in a rented beach house, Gabe has no choice but to look into what happened that night. To solve Larry’s murder, Gabe, and the whole Ortiz family, must ask each other tough questions.
