Shari Bayer’s “All in the Industry” is about to air its 350th episode! If someone (aspiring chef, food writer, self-proclaimed “foodie”) wants a comprehensive course on who’s who and what’s been happening in the food & hospitality world since 2019 (and an excellent dose of history from the past 25 years Shari’s been in the industry) they need look no further than this podcast!! Case in point: if you want some tasty morsels from the past, check out episode 338 where Shari rebroadcasts her interview with the late great Gael Greene (episode 150). Gael was a huge reference point for me growing up in the business, and I learned A LOT I didn’t know. “All in the Industry’s” winning recipe of Shari’s PR tip, industry news, in-depth guest interview, and speed round questions keeps it fun and really makes you feel like you know her guest by the end of the show.

I have been listening to All in the Industry since it began 5 years ago and have learned a lot about the hospitality industry. All the podcasts have been interesting and informative. Each show starts off with Shari saying: “well hello! Shari has a sweet voice and makes her guests comfortable so they tell us of their background and how they became a force in the hospitality industry. The show’s format is wonderful. Each show starts with a PR Tip that applies to public relations, the show’s guest and all the listeners. We then listen to a discussion about the career and current activity of an intriguing guest telling his or her story. Next comes Shari’s speed round game, which simply asks the guest to quickly choose between dining choices. It is funny how often guests can not select between eating in and eating out, or cheese plate or dessert. Industry news discusses timely topics in the hospitality industry. Shari’s solo dining experience is a review of a restaurant with Shari’s insights and fun facts. And then Shari says: “and that’s the show”! Shari has now completed 222 shows. I continue to look forward to a new show each week. I give All in the Industry 5 stars.
