The meez Network began when two friends and hospitality professionals who share a love for the industry, creativity, and storytelling, joined forces.
As a first step, Andrew Friedman and Josh Sharkey have banded their respective podcasts into The meez Network. Andrew brought his well-respected and long running podcast "Andrew Talks to Chefs" to the meez Network alongside Josh's younger and fast-growing show, The meez
Podcast. In addition a few other industry friends joined our roster.
The goal is to hear and share stories and lessons from creators, storytellers, and food professionals that educate, bring colleagues together, and generally help to raise the bar of excellence, community, collaboration, and innovation across our industry. The pair will bring more compelling content to the network across different mediums as we grow.
