Caleb Bryan joins the show to talk about how he went from reviewing restaurants to organizing two of the wildest grassroots food events in Louisiana — the Cajun Burger Cookoff and the upcoming Cajun Taco Cookoff.

We get into the real work behind building these events, what it takes to rally a community, lessons learned the hard way, and why he keeps doing it even when the money ain’t the goal. Whether you’re thinking about throwing your own event or just love hearing how things come together behind the scenes — this one’s got something for you.
