What amazing work they do!

I have been fortunate to attend a camp bear hug event with coach Jon, Johnny Bear and chef Jon. These men are amazingly human, flawed and beautiful. The work they are creating is helping gay men become empowered through positivity and love.

I heard coach Jon on a different podcast which led me to this one and man, what an impact it has had on me. I’m proud to call these men my friends.

Chef Jonathan

What an amazing conversation. I LOVE Next Level Chef! One of the gorgeous aspects of your podcasts Jon Fischer is each interview leaves me feels as if I met at new friend. Chef Jonathan is such a dynamic individual with attributes that expand way past the kitchen. I enjoyed his personality and talents on the TV show. However, after listening to the podcast I'm blown away by his many levels of humanity.
