Season 1 Wrap Up: Reflecting on 50 Interviews & the Future of the Port City Plate Podcast
In this Season 1 wrap-up episode of the Port City Plate Podcast, host Chris Andrews reflects on an incredible two years and 50 interviews, highlighting some of the most memorable moments and interviews from the season. From long-time friends in the industry to new connections, Chris takes a look back at the many voices that have shaped, not only the podcast, but Mobile's thriving food scene. He also shares a few of his personal favorite episodes and what stood out most from the interviews.
Listeners will get a behind-the-scenes peek at the challenges of podcasting, (including a lost episode!) and hear Chris's reflections on the inspiring stories of guests like Cammie Wayne, who turned a teenage job into ownership of Old Dutch Ice Cream Shoppe, and Vlad Molvanano, who rose from dishwasher to sandwich empire owner at Mediterranean Sandwich Co. These examples highlight the importance of supporting local restaurants and the potential for anyone in the industry to become the next star of Mobile's food scene.
As Season 1 comes to a close, Chris thanks his listeners for their support and shares his excitement for what's to come in Season 2. He invites feedback from the audience on what they'd like to see in the next season and promises to continue spotlighting the incredible talent in Mobile and the surrounding areas.
