Cake and Conversation

For episode 22, artist Kevin Cromwell and I met up at my bar Growler's, shared some cookie cake, and talked about the moment he knew he wanted to be an artist. We also talked about the importance of preserving art over time, different interpretations of the same piece, and the difficulties of garnering local interest. Check out his work on Instagram and Facebook by searching his name, and check out his website kevin-cromwell.squarespace.com. ***CLICK THE LINKS ON THIS PAGE TO SEND A VOICE MESSAGE AND TO SUPPORT THE SHOW!!***

For episode 21 I invited Cake and Conversation's resident baker Daniella Barrera over to create a tiramisu and talk about life growing up with a big family, how the competitive drive she learned from soccer translates to her love for baking, and her plans to make her mark in the culinary world. You can currently find her at Kravem Cakes located in Lake Jackson, Texas.

My guest this week is a craft cocktail cultivator and Houston's entry in the Power of the Palate virtual cocktail competition, Ed Warner II, from The Ed Warner Experience. His story's amazing and original, he's seen it all and done it all, and now he shares his creative passion of building one of a kind drinks for people to enjoy. Why have a rum and coke when you can let Ed take your palate on an adventure? He's hung out with Bob Marley, George Clinton, and countless other music industry titans. He was sneaking into the Apollo Theater at age 13, and he planned on being a plastic surgeon. Press play to hear great conversation with my guest, Ed Warner.

This week's guest is super intriguing to me because not only is he a DJ during his "free time", but during the day he's a Harris County Public Defender, specifically for juveniles. I've never heard of a lawyer who was also an outstanding DJ, he's like freaking Bruce Wayne. We dive into why he will always choose red velvet cake over anything else, what lead him to get into being a DJ a little later in life, and how he balances his hectic work schedule with his hobby. Oh, he also just welcomed his first baby boy into the world. The man's a magician. Do you know what you wanted to be when you were eight?? I didn't, but this man did.

Collier Crisp and I have been best friends since the first grade and over the years he has transformed himself from the most plain and dry picky eater ever, into one of the best home cooks I've ever met. He's also started a Youtube channel called Crispy Concepts, and if you search for Doppler Crisp he'll have you laughing your ass off, shaking your head, and probably both. We got to hang out and talk about the importance of a fresh home cooked meal, filling a competitive void, and how being ocd doesn't limit creativity.

This dude grew up on the same block as me and once I saw that he was starting a youth program in our hometown, as well as releasing new music videos, I had to have him on for a session. We recorded the whole thing live on video and you can find it by searching Youtube for Allstars Make Plays Ent. For this audio version, I have for you the second half of the conversation, as well as an update about my boozeless journey and I have a sample of Allstar Amp's new song for his video "Blackheart", currently available on Youtube.
