Welcome to the POVAR x hotndelicious x ChooseDay on Bondi Radio
My home-boy Stacy Henderson, co-founder of POVAR, hosts a show every single week on Bondi Radio called ChooseDay and recently he asked me to join him as a guest.
It was such a wonderful and insightful 2 hours discussing Entrepreneurship, Meditation, Pursuing Your Dreams, Life in Bondi and so much more, which we recorded LIVE over the course of 2 hours whilst watching the waves roll in at the Bondi Radio Studios at Bucketlist in Bondi Beach. So beautiful and relaxing!
I loved the show so much that I asked him if we could publish it as a Hot & Delicious: Rocks The Planet! podcast. And he said yes. Here it is!

Fare thee well, Anthony.
‘Medium Raw’ & ‘Kitchen Confidential’ are books that I read a number of years ago; your story and the way that you told it (along with the many biographies/autobiographies of my favourite inspirations) have been part of the rich tapestry that have inspired me to continue to trailblaze life in my own way, to embrace the inner weirdo that I was always so afraid of growing up and the light-globe of realization that I’m not alone. Brash, open & honest. It’s like looking in the mirror. Although you’re clearly a lot more deadly handsome in black & white 😁😜
You are you and I’m sorry that you felt that this was the only way. Scrolling my Social Media Newsfeeds today, it is clear to me that you have made such a positive impact on friends in my inner circle & beyond who also inspire me. Rest well, big fella. You’ve earned it ❤✨
