never being satisfied with success w/ shihan chowdhury (@chilipeppercooks)

with over 900k+ followers on social media, shihan chowdhury (@chilipeppercooks) is a bangladeshi cinematographer, home cook, and entrepreneur, and we’re grateful to have him as our second guest on the pod! 

in our 90 minute convo with him, we learned how he went from working at a fast food restaurant at 14 to becoming one of the most prolific figures in our online bangladeshi community, about his work ethic with him being a child of immigrants, and an immigrant himself, his incorporation of bangladeshi culture in his art despite not being surrounded by any people with that background, never being satisfied due to the instilled learnings from our parents, how he’s carried faith and religion throughout his life, what his favorite episode of chefs table is, and most importantly, why the hell he puts thai chili peppers in everything 

shihan’s one of the most inspirational people we’ve come across, and we’re ecstatic for you all to hear this whole convo. one last thank you to shihan, you’re the realest
