Get ready to elevate your sandwich game with Owen’s drool-worthy recipes that’ll have you pre-ordering his book before it hits shelves on October 15th (trust us, you’ll want it!).

We’re diving deep into all things sandwiches—what bread reigns supreme? How do you bake the perfect biscuit? And of course, we ask the million-dollar question: Is a hot dog a sandwich? How about lasagna?! Owen’s here to blow your sandwich-loving minds with his wildest culinary creations, including one of the weirdest (yet delicious) concoctions you’ll ever hear about.

With millions of followers on TikTok, Owen’s known for his epic mashups, like the Chipotle Chicken Philly, and bringing together flavors from his Italian and Chinese heritage. From tacos to bao buns, if it’s stackable, Owen counts it as a sandwich!

We’ve got an exciting episode lined up as we sit down with David Best, the CEO over at Newman’s Own, to dive into their recent Generosity Index social experiment. Spoiler alert: LA residents and Swifties (yes, Taylor Swift fans!) are leading the charge when it comes to generosity! Newman’s Own took their “Pay What You Want” pizza truck on a tour across the nation, donating 100% of proceeds to support kids in need through the Newman’s Own Foundation. The results? Well, let's just say LA folks shelled out an average of $5.54 per slice! And those Swifties? They proved their reputation by donating $1 more per slice than Olivia Rodrigo and BTS fans! But wait, there’s more! Sports rivalries got heated too, with Yankees fans outgiving Red Sox fans by 46%, and University of Michigan supporters showing up 50% more generous than Ohio State fans. Surprisingly, age and disposable income weren’t major factors—Boomers, Gen X, Millennials, and Gen Z all gave generously, showing that when it comes to pizza and making a difference, we’re all in it together.

David didn’t just talk pizza; we dove into the whole Newman’s Own lineup, from their iconic Salad Dressings to their flavorful Pasta Sauce. And get ready for this… there’s a new Strawberry Lemonade coming soon that’s going to blow your taste buds away! We also teased what’s on the horizon for Newman’s Own, and trust me, you won't want to miss it!
