Amazing Insights, Fun Connections & More

Michael has such a way of connecting with his guests and encouraging them to share more. These are fun; we hear insights into how the chefs arrived where they are today and their journey along the way. Hearing James Tree’s stories and connections was fascinating. I listened to Part 1 and immediately listened to Part 2! I encourage others to listen to these amazing stories.

I just discovered Voice4Chefs. Michael interviews guests in all aspects of the food industry. You can hear his enthusiasm as his guests share their stories. In his interviews, he is always giving shoutouts, celebrating others, and sharing resources and knowledge. It is so so wholesome, informative, and entertaining. I am glad this podcast and Michael’s passion is in the world spreading its goodness!
