- 0:09Speaker 1: Welcome on in.
- 0:10Speaker 2: This is off the edge of me, your host, Cam Jordan.
- 0:13Speaker 2: I'm super excited because, I mean we always talk about,
- 0:16Speaker 2: you know, what's in between the lines, playing football, the
- 0:19Speaker 2: Pro Bowlers, the All Pros, everybody who comes through, you know,
- 0:24Speaker 2: different sports.
- 0:25Speaker 1: I finally get to talk what I really want to
- 0:27Speaker 1: talk about. I want to talk about food.
- 0:28Speaker 2: You know, like when you're one in five sitting at
- 0:31Speaker 2: New Orleans Saints, you've got to have field to fire
- 0:34Speaker 2: you up, to get you past this streak of losing
- 0:37Speaker 2: situation that we're in right now. We got to get
- 0:39Speaker 2: out this funk. We gotta get back into the wind column.
- 0:41Speaker 2: And how do you do that? But when you bless
- 0:43Speaker 2: yourself with a good meal, you recuperate your mind and
- 0:47Speaker 2: you get your attitude right for this upcoming week, because
- 0:49Speaker 2: it's going to be hell fighting Wednesday, Thursday, Saturday, Friday,
- 0:54Speaker 2: Saturday leading into flying into Chicago to take on the Bears,
- 0:58Speaker 2: who just beat the Washington Commanders past Monday. And you
- 1:01Speaker 2: know what, that has nothing to do with nothing, because
- 1:04Speaker 2: we are focused on the world renowned chef and businessman,
- 1:06Speaker 2: founder of Mama Fuco, David Chang, Big Dog. I appreciate
- 1:10Speaker 2: you tapping in. Uh, I hope, I said, Mama Fuko, right,
- 1:13Speaker 2: I try. I tried it in my head like thirty times.
- 1:17Speaker 3: It's it's a ridiculous name for sure, but you said
- 1:20Speaker 3: it perfectly. Yeah. Honored to be here man. Thanks Cam.
- 1:24Speaker 2: It's time for this week's Drive for Success Conversation, presented
- 1:27Speaker 2: by Toyota.
- 1:28Speaker 1: Let's go places.
- 1:30Speaker 2: Yeah, man, I mean you got the Dinner Time Live
- 1:32Speaker 2: with David Chang on Netflix, which you know just just
- 1:36Speaker 2: started tapping into your podcast yourself. I mean, you know
- 1:40Speaker 2: what got you into that space from you know, being
- 1:42Speaker 2: being a chef to multiple restaurants.
- 1:47Speaker 3: Yeah, I didn't plan on doing media at all.
- 1:50Speaker 4: You know, at the time when you started cooking, you know,
- 1:54Speaker 4: you only saw stuff on PBS or Food Network. And
- 1:56Speaker 4: then some chefs that I really admired started doing tell
- 2:00Speaker 4: levision that were great programming. There's a chef in the
- 2:02Speaker 4: UK named Heston Blumenthal, and he had a fantastic show
- 2:06Speaker 4: that promoted his restaurants and seemed good and he didn't
- 2:09Speaker 4: lose any credibility.
- 2:10Speaker 3: So uh, that was like a no brainer.
- 2:13Speaker 4: Once he said, you know, laid out the framework and
- 2:15Speaker 4: then just started to dapple in it, and you know,
- 2:19Speaker 4: twenty years later. I never thought I'd be on as
- 2:22Speaker 4: many TV shows as we've done. It's been.
- 2:24Speaker 3: It's remarkable, very blessed.
- 2:27Speaker 1: Man.
- 2:27Speaker 2: I understand, and look, I've I feel like food and
- 2:32Speaker 2: fat guys go hand in hand.
- 2:33Speaker 1: And I've been a fat guy all my life.
- 2:34Speaker 2: So you know, like when it comes to tailgating or
- 2:38Speaker 2: watching the game, there's got to be food of plenty.
- 2:40Speaker 2: When it comes to my life and the ups and downs,
- 2:43Speaker 2: foods is a necessity. And you know, I think I
- 2:47Speaker 2: probably started off watching what what was that it was?
- 2:50Speaker 2: I always messed this up. I always call it digs,
- 2:52Speaker 2: diners and drive ins, and it's not. It's diners, dives
- 2:55Speaker 2: and drive ins back in the day. And you just
- 2:58Speaker 2: have this super huge appreciation for the people that can
- 3:02Speaker 2: do those that can't do. You know, teach and I
- 3:05Speaker 2: try and teach my kids how to make eggs because
- 3:06Speaker 2: that's you know, we're okay, we're not excellent like you are,
- 3:10Speaker 2: but we do all right, you know when it comes
- 3:13Speaker 2: when it comes down to it, Man, you're sort of
- 3:16Speaker 2: in that pathway of leading the way media wise as
- 3:19Speaker 2: well as you know, international food wise. I mean, you've
- 3:22Speaker 2: got again restaurants everywhere.
- 3:24Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, uh, you know, every day just trying
- 3:28Speaker 3: to stay in business.
- 3:30Speaker 4: That's the way I look at it, right, And you know,
- 3:33Speaker 4: doing media is one thing, but I don't work in
- 3:35Speaker 4: the day to day in the restaurants anymore.
- 3:36Speaker 3: Much like.
- 3:39Speaker 4: You know, I've always followed sports for a long time,
- 3:41Speaker 4: and I always thought that, you know, it's always assed
- 3:46Speaker 4: obsessed with the peak window of when you're at your best, right,
- 3:50Speaker 4: and cooking is one of those things where there is
- 3:55Speaker 4: a moment in time when you're in you're at your
- 3:56Speaker 4: best for sure, there's like a few year period and
- 4:00Speaker 4: then you're not. And I never wanted to sort of
- 4:04Speaker 4: fade away, and I always wanted to be prepared for
- 4:08Speaker 4: what's next. And another thing that and I'm sure clearly
- 4:11Speaker 4: you know better than anybody else, but people forget or
- 4:16Speaker 4: don't know how physical cooking is. You know, if you start,
- 4:21Speaker 4: if you're working like the meat row station, you could
- 4:23Speaker 4: be carrying like maybe you know, honestly, like two hundred
- 4:28Speaker 4: you know, I want to say two thousand pounds. I
- 4:31Speaker 4: don't even know the pounds. It's in a ridiculous amount,
- 4:34Speaker 4: up and down all day. So it's no surprise when
- 4:37Speaker 4: you see chefs in their forties and fifties. They have
- 4:38Speaker 4: knee replacements, hip replacements, shoulder replacements. So you know, your
- 4:43Speaker 4: body just breaks because it's a it's full on all
- 4:46Speaker 4: the time, and there's no off season, right, so your
- 4:50Speaker 4: body just breaks. And and I knew that physically, I
- 4:53Speaker 4: couldn't be able to do what I did ten years ago.
- 4:56Speaker 3: Right.
- 4:57Speaker 4: I have a you know, my shoulders replaced. I have
- 5:00Speaker 4: a prosthetic in my neck. I gotta get my L
- 5:04Speaker 4: five L four a play sometime soon. You know, I
- 5:07Speaker 4: just can't cook the way I used to be used to. Yeah,
- 5:12Speaker 4: you should be aggressive. That thing I know about the
- 5:14Speaker 4: L four L five dissected me. It gets real in
- 5:16Speaker 4: the nose tackle do you tackle?
- 5:18Speaker 1: Chef?
- 5:20Speaker 2: How much of that competitive nature from playing football golf
- 5:22Speaker 2: drives all that you've done as a chef, you know,
- 5:25Speaker 2: and as a content creators, as a restaurant owner as
- 5:28Speaker 2: you know the mama fuku gup.
- 5:30Speaker 3: I mean so much. You know, my dad grew up.
- 5:33Speaker 4: I grew up basically because my dad wanted me to
- 5:35Speaker 4: be a pro golfer. And I played golf every day.
- 5:39Speaker 4: That's all I did, three hundred and sixty five days
- 5:41Speaker 4: a year. I played golf before golf became cool. You know,
- 5:45Speaker 4: like now you go to a course anywhere in the country,
- 5:47Speaker 4: you're going to see like an Asian dad yelling at
- 5:49Speaker 4: their kid. My dad was the first, really was the first,
- 5:53Speaker 4: and you know, I burned out and I never really
- 5:57Speaker 4: played team sports growing up golf, so you know, I
- 6:01Speaker 4: played some soccer here and there, but once it was
- 6:03Speaker 4: shown that I was good at golf, that's all I did.
- 6:06Speaker 4: And then I was accruited to play golf in high
- 6:10Speaker 4: school and I actually never panned out, you know, so
- 6:19Speaker 4: I tried out for football team just because at that time,
- 6:22Speaker 4: that's what everybody did on your freshman team, you know,
- 6:24Speaker 4: freshman year high school. And I got to tell you, like,
- 6:28Speaker 4: that was the craziest experience of my life because I
- 6:31Speaker 4: never knew that you could get hurt and people would
- 6:34Speaker 4: like hit you.
- 6:35Speaker 3: That was just like a.
- 6:37Speaker 4: If you've never been hit before in pads, right, Imagine
- 6:40Speaker 4: you're just playing golf all day and you're like, what's
- 6:42Speaker 4: going on. I don't understand the need to overcome pain, right,
- 6:48Speaker 4: the need to have accountability with a teammate and a
- 6:52Speaker 4: coach just yelling at you all day long, and that
- 6:55Speaker 4: was like a big thing for me. It took a
- 6:57Speaker 4: long time for me to even understand what football was
- 6:59Speaker 4: even I watched it. It was such a foreign thing
- 7:02Speaker 4: to me, playing a team sport and also being in discomfort,
- 7:06Speaker 4: like constant discomfort. And I was not very good my
- 7:12Speaker 4: freshman year, and I was not very good my sophomore year.
- 7:15Speaker 4: It was not really good my junior year. And then
- 7:17Speaker 4: it's just sort of clicked, you know. I was like, Oh,
- 7:20Speaker 4: I got to like really work at this and and
- 7:23Speaker 4: I just sort of just overcome a lot of things
- 7:28Speaker 4: sort of like shaped my sort of football days in
- 7:31Speaker 4: terms of what I brought into the cooking industry. And
- 7:34Speaker 4: one is tolerance of pain and accountability with your teammates.
- 7:39Speaker 3: Right. I didn't realize that playing a team sport I loved.
- 7:42Speaker 4: I love being told by somebody, Hey, you know, do
- 7:47Speaker 4: your job, you know what I mean.
- 7:48Speaker 1: Like get you your job, you know, and.
- 7:51Speaker 4: Like when you're only playing a solo sport, it's just
- 7:55Speaker 4: such a weird thing to have somebody tell you that
- 7:58Speaker 4: you're peer like step up. And the only time I
- 8:03Speaker 4: ever felt that kind of atmosphere was in a kitchen.
- 8:08Speaker 4: And I got recruited to play d through football and
- 8:11Speaker 4: the NESTCAC and I want to go to Trinity College,
- 8:13Speaker 4: and you know, there's no scholarships.
- 8:16Speaker 3: And I was good.
- 8:18Speaker 4: I made all leagues in the DC area, and I
- 8:22Speaker 4: knew that it was never going to be a thing
- 8:24Speaker 4: for me. Right, I'm not athletically gifted, and I just
- 8:29Speaker 4: I'm a grinder, right, I will work my ass off,
- 8:32Speaker 4: And those are all sort of attributes you need in food.
- 8:37Speaker 4: But when I got to cooking, you know, like I
- 8:42Speaker 4: didn't realize that you have a bunch of people that
- 8:47Speaker 4: you would never expect to be serious people when they
- 8:50Speaker 4: put on the whites, these guys are clowns. They're like
- 8:55Speaker 4: pirates outside of the kitchen, you know, But when they
- 8:58Speaker 4: put on whites, they're as serious as can be. And
- 9:02Speaker 4: I love that intensity. So there was a lot I
- 9:06Speaker 4: took from playing professionals, like not professional organized sports team
- 9:10Speaker 4: sports football, that I took from high school into professional
- 9:16Speaker 4: kitchens and golf. What I learned is always looking at
- 9:19Speaker 4: the scoreboard, always realizing no matter how good you are,
- 9:22Speaker 4: someone's going to be better than you. And that's a
- 9:25Speaker 4: hard thing to learn when you're thirteen years old, right
- 9:27Speaker 4: when you think you're the hottest you know around, and
- 9:30Speaker 4: then I'm sure you know football players feel that all
- 9:33Speaker 4: the time. They're the best in high school, and then
- 9:35Speaker 4: they get to college, they're not the best anymore. They're
- 9:37Speaker 4: the best in college, and then they get to the pros,
- 9:38Speaker 4: but not the best anymore. It's a humbling experience.
- 9:42Speaker 2: Yeah, you got to look, you got to embrace the challenges.
- 9:44Speaker 2: I actually look forward to when I wasn't the best, though,
- 9:48Speaker 2: you know, when it came down, when it came down
- 9:50Speaker 2: to college, it was like going from high school, I
- 9:53Speaker 2: thought I was a top dog, you know, scholarships glore.
- 9:56Speaker 1: You get to college, you're like, man, these are these units.
- 9:59Speaker 2: Like I didn't know men were built like this, you know,
- 10:02Speaker 2: I didn't know they could be six to six and
- 10:04Speaker 2: have these abs and be way two ninety five and
- 10:07Speaker 2: still run as fast, almost as fast as me, or
- 10:09Speaker 2: you know, have these attributes that you're like, man, this
- 10:12Speaker 2: is world class beed.
- 10:13Speaker 4: You know, come on, cam you you're like a world
- 10:16Speaker 4: class athlete that you cannot fix that way.
- 10:19Speaker 1: No doubt. But that's the sit like you always like, man,
- 10:22Speaker 1: he's built like a unit. Like you know, in my
- 10:24Speaker 1: high school there was me at six four at you know,
- 10:27Speaker 1: defensive van two sixty five to seventy two seventy five

- 12:47Speaker 4: best THING i do is getting to hang with those
- 12:50Speaker 4: guys BECAUSE i ask him these ridiculous. Questions because in,
- 12:54Speaker 4: COOKING i now come to the conclusion that the most talented,
- 12:57Speaker 4: cook the cook is very, different never makes a great, chef,
- 13:02Speaker 4: right because you've never developed, Humility you've never learned to
- 13:09Speaker 4: empathize with other cooks that are not nearly as good as.
- 13:12Speaker 4: You you're just, like why can't you make? This why
- 13:15Speaker 4: can't you cook like? This, well you, know the other cooks,
- 13:18Speaker 4: Like i'm just not as good as you. Are AND
- 13:20Speaker 4: i think that being good enough but not the greatest
- 13:24Speaker 4: cook translates to being the best. Chef, NOW i think
- 13:28Speaker 4: it's a little bit. Different it's not apples to. Apples
- 13:30Speaker 4: but do you feel like the most talented athletes in
- 13:33Speaker 4: football always?
- 13:34Speaker 3: Win?
- 13:34Speaker 4: Right do they always pan? Out and clearly the answer is.
- 13:37Speaker 4: No but you know what is the what is the
- 13:40Speaker 4: determining factor for being? Great like your career has been,
- 13:44Speaker 4: amazing you.
