Next Week’s Show…
Next week I have celebrity Chef Robert Irvine on the show. Yes, you know who he is… Star of the Food Network including his hit show, Restaurant Impossible: Back to Business. Airing on Thursday nights on Food Network this won’t be like any season you’ve ever seen before. Because of COVID-19, restaurants all across the country are struggling to stay afloat and Chef Irvine is there to help solve these new business hurdles. One of the reasons I wanted to have him on the show is that we both have a common theme for wanting to truly help those businesses struggling out there to make sure they not only survive but thrive during difficult times. I can’t wait to share this episode with you!
