Join industry natives, Nariba Shepherd & Justin Arnett - Graham as they explore what we like to call - dark side of the plate conversations. All glitter's not gold out here but it doesn't mean we can't do something about it. Poised but funny, specific yet inclusive - we aim to shed light on the human costs of the hospitality experience. Tilting the microphone to those that are often forgotten and overlooked - we commit to not only discussing the realities in the industry, but provide tangible resources to enact a more equitable landscape for all. Crafted as post shift conversations - listen in as we talk some sh*t, learn a bit, highlight unique perspectives and empower community action together. After all, this is the industry as it should be heard and its on your terms.
