J. Ryan is joined by Don Benjamin - a true jack of all trades and now a father of two - for a candid sit-down that covers it all. Don reflects on his time on America’s Next Top Model, life as a dad, and how he really feels about the “influencer” label. He dishes on his alter ego as the “Shirtless Chef” and gives us a sneak peek at his upcoming role in the highly anticipated horror film HIM. And of course, you know we had to run some games. Tap in for laughs, stories, and a side of Don you’ve never seen.
