In this week's episode, we are joined by Chef Christopher "Tony" Dodson. With a notable career spanning roles as a Food Network Chopped champion, chef consultant, private chef, and military veteran, Chef Tony has embarked on a remarkable professional trajectory. His culinary journey, inspired by figures like Bobby Flay, led him from attending culinary school to working in a three-Michelin-starred restaurant and ultimately triumphing on Chopped. Now an accomplished private chef, Chef Tony continues to exude his passion for food. Reflecting on his experiences in Okinawa, Japan, he fondly recalls being introduced to a diverse array of cuisines and the bounty of fresh seafood.
Tune in to hear Chef Tony's inspiring story and his aspirations to be a role model for young chefs.

Quotes
"The reality is how we feel within ourselves translates into what ends up on the plate too."
"To understand, if I apply the same skill set, maybe on a single night for a client at their house, and it's their birthday party, they're almost willing to give me maybe two weeks of my salary in a single night."
"If you can get to the three to five year mark, it will solidify your resume like nothing else."
"Get to a point where you're so comfortable in your skin, from your resume, to kind of the cover letter, to the photos you show, that expresses who you want to be every minute of the day the most."
