M.Dot is a Los Angeles native byway of Pasadena, and he is a Magazine Owner, Creative Director, Fashion Designer as well as a plethora of other titles. We first start our conversation with M. Dot; whose real name is Marcus, telling us how things were for him growing up in Pasadena and how he found his creative spark early due to his family and hip hop culture which was a major influence in him knowing what he wanted to do with his life. We then go on to talk about how he started his creative journey as a rapper and producer, Which lead to creatively directing visuals for music videos later on in life. Dot explains that he played sports, basketball specifically, but he was never the typical high school student, because he didn't go to parties and hang out much with friends, because he was always either in the studio, his parents radio station or in his mother's garage doing creative things. He explains to us that how he got his name "M.Dot", was inspired by Jay-z's nickname "S.Dot Carter", but he put his own twist on the name "M. Dot" because the acronym stood for "Marcus Does Overtime'. Dot talks about how he was popular in school mainly because of being a creative and just a trendsetter, in the sense he would go to thrift stores and find pieces of clothing that he would cut up and/or sew onto peoples clothing or sneakers for extra money as a side hustle. We transition our conversation to how he later befriended 2 time NBA Champion and Los Angeles Laker, Jordan Farmar. Dot tells us how it was such a inspiration and wild experience being around Jordan and the Championship Lakers, as well as being apart of the Laker parade twice. Dot goes on to explain how that experience helped turn his hustle up and broaden his understanding of an extravagant lifestyle. A lifestyle in which he made his mind up that he wanted for himself, through his own talent, dedication, and hard work.

On this episode, we sit down and talk to with a native of New Orleans and Personal Chef for some of todays biggest sports athletes, Chef Will Jones. Our conversation first starts off talking about how Chef Jones grew up in New Orleans, and where his passion for cooking initial came from. Chef explains that outside of this natural interest in cooking because of being from the south, he went to college for business management. But it was one day that he saw a man walking around campus with the checker pants that culinary students and people who cook at restaurants wear and it really intrigued him. Chef Jones later goes on to reveal to us that he was not only inspired by the guy in the checker pants but he also had a older brother who cooked and another brother who was in the streets, who always looked out for him and push him to do positive things with his life. We then transition to a new topic, when our Co-Host T-Reg asks him about how he was effected by "Hurricane Katrina". Chef tells us that the hurricane was the best and worst thing that could've happened to him because he had to evacuate his home and leave everything behind, but also got a sign from God to move to Atlanta, and that's when his life changed drastically. And while being in Atlanta, he was working at a very popular restaurant where a lot of celebrities used to come to eat. After building connections and relationships in Atlanta, unfortunately his mother got sick and evidently passed away, but he then moved back to New Orleans and capitalize on his skills and connections which eventually got him cooking for the likes of star athletes like Reggie Bush, and now being Anthony Davis's personal chef. Like usual, our listeners are definitely in for a treat like always, this is one you do not want to miss! So sit back and enjoy the crazy world of The Tune'd In Podcast. Yay! Yay!
