Podcast appearances and mentions of John Carruthers

Writer, fundraiser and pizza pro John Carruthers of Crust Fund Pizza is a Car Con Carne favorite, and it was awesome to have him back in the car to talk about his new cookbook, “Super Pizza World.” I met him at his Crust Fund Pizza distribution point, the alley behind his house, where we shared one of his masterful “Royko” (sausage + hot giardiniera) tavern-style pizzas. We talked a lot about pizza basics, the fun and engaging presentation and content of the new book, and the persevering (and growing) business model of Crust Fund Pizza. Super Pizza World is a riot to read, and isn’t just for cooks - it’s funny, Chicago-centric and the sort of thing you’ll want to share with your friends.

During the early days of the pandemic, this week's guest was looking for ways to stave off dread and make a difference—and he decided to start selling pizzas out of the alleyway behind his house. That's right: this week we are talking to John Carruthers, founder and proprietor of Crust Fund Pizza (and director of communications for Revolution Brewing by day.) He's raised over $70,000 for a wide variety of charities and causes and created a cult following to boot: his maximalist pizza creations sell out almost instantly, with fans from all over the region trying to crack the code on his release process. He comes to the studio to tell us how to get a leg up on securing a pizza, dives into the genesis of his pizza-making nonprofit, tells us all about a recent tavern pizza odyssey across Chicago, and so much more. He's also got a new book: The church cookbook-inspired Super Pizza World, a treasure trove of some of his most iconic pies, bound with a spiral so you can keep it open while you play chef (why isn't this the standard for cookbooks?)

Illinois is hosting a state flag design contest. That's because the Illinois flag is forgettable at best, according to “Good Flag, Bad Flag” author Ted Kaye. Last year, he told host Jacoby Cochran what would make our state flag better. Want some more City Cast Chicago news?

Moving from accumulation to distribution can be daunting, there are so many things to consider. This week on the show, we talk about Distribution planning and the headwinds that retirees face and what to consider as you plan to start taking income from your assets. You will also be introduced to one of our Washington based planners, John Carruthers.

Revolution Brewing's mission is to dominate your whole calendar. They release one of the most coveted barrel-aged beers in the last few years as a surprise for the summer along with two returning favorites, but they also let you wash it all down with exquisite lighter-drinking beers like the pair from this episode. So we chatted with Rev's communications manager John Carruthers about these hot summer drops, the future of Rev's packaged offerings, his charitable pizza project and cookbook, and of course, the 90s X-Men Arcade game. Then we drink through a wildly incongruous lineup that has no business being evaluated on the same level, but we do what we know. There's also talk of souping-up Craig's Prius, Hall & Oates music videos, new lexicons for 40-year olds, and hope for VSOJ soft serve cones. Snap into a green bean! John Carruthers Interview (00:07:52 - 00:45:52) Beers Reviewed Riot (Bohemian Keller Pils) Pursuit of Freedom: Watermelon Mint (Session Sour) Supermassive Café Deth (Barrel-aged Imperial Oatmeal Stout w/ Coffee) Strawberry Jacket (Barrel-aged Barleywine w/ Strawberries)V.S.O.J.

John Carruthers has dedicated his life to pizza: Making it. Talking about it. Writing about it. Using it as a force for social justice. From his Crust Fund Pizza initiative to the just-released “Pizza for Everyone” book, John's efforts are inspired, engaging and delicious.   He returned to Car Con Carne today to talk about the overly-successful crowdfunding of the second pressing for “Pizza for Everyone” (the overflow of which is going straight to charity). He also freshly baked one of his Crust Fund Pizzas for the recording: A sausage pizza that, without exaggeration, is one of the best pizzas I ever had. No joke.   John's turned his obsession with mastering the art of pizza making into a legit life calling, and we're here for it. Car Con Carne is sponsored by Siren Records McHenry.

In this episode my friend John Carruthers shares five insights or principles he's distilled during five years of developing a 70-acre property in Central Victoria, Australia. It was an honour to act for a part of the journey as what John describes as a ‘robust river guide,' and I am so thrilled to see John and his partner Rosie in full stewardship of their own process and the beautiful forms that are emerging from it. Here is the video we mention several times in the chat – thanks to John for permission to share it here. https://vimeo.com/557550938/47265875f4 NOTE: WATCH THIS SPACE – JUST SORTING A TECH GLITCH WITH EMBEDDING THE VIDEO – WILL BE EMBEDDED HERE IN NO TIME AT ALL AND MEANTIME YOU CAN WATCH IT HERE John also sent these further notes: a) the deep ripping across the southern half of the property begun this year is an “option value” decision because it's an excellent BNS (Best Next Step) for almost any other activity thereafter, be it cover-crop pre-pasture, shelter belt tree planting, or agroforestry or silvopasture. It's a valuable precursor step.b) The widely-spaced keylined beds in one paddock is where we've begun planting oaks, silky oaks, cedar and native pines as a long-term (inter-generational) agroforestry / silvopasture trial. We have planted several hundred this year and forecast planting three times that over a few years. The oaks are being planted from acorns we collected and germinated. This first planting is our BNS before switching focus to the house site early next year.Also the quote I cited “I count him braver who overcomes his desires, than who conquers his enemies – for the hardest victory is over self” is by Aristotle NOT Socrates – as I may have suggested :-) If anyone is interested in connecting with John or in the services of drone pilot and film maker Peter Watts send me a message and I can connect you. I also tracked down this video of my first visit to Limestone road, which we talk about in the chat too. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ESvvzbEOwjk and I found this one also: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_sprRI18xYw Finally I am excited to announce that today is the first day of our in-house six week crowd funding campaign for the Reading Landscape Documentary Film project. Come get amongst!

The show starts with Cody admitting that his son went on a rampage trying to destroy his studio and describes his new balance stool. Then the guys share their tale of a recent visit to Roger's new house and how great Brian seems to be with babies. Beer hype-man, cookbook author, pizza maker and all around great guy, John Carruthers joins the show to talk about Crust Fund Pizza and the recently released book "Pizza For Everyone" that is supporting great non-profits in the Chicago area. The guys talk pizza, beer and Cody's embarrassing college drink of choice. When John says goodbye, the talk turns to space and billionaires.

John Carruthers and Alan Muir, two comedian friends and lifelong Stephen King fans, have decided to get together and discuss his novels... one at a time. What better place to start than... Carrie.

John Carruthers has established himself as a leading expert on guitars and amplifiers as a designer, builder and repairman. Working along side Leo Fender at Music Man, John helped improve the quality of the product line and years later helped establish a series of instruments for Yamaha including their electric bass and acoustic guitar line. John’s reputation grew in part due to a decade long column he wrote for Guitar Player Magazine, and his dedication to teaching.Over the years John has worked on instruments for artists including the Rolling Stones, Byrds, Doors, Eagles, CSNY, Fleetwood Mac, REO Speedwagon, Survivor, Peter Frampton, Foreigner, Lee Sklar, Chuck Rainey, Jimmy Johnson, Alphonso Johnson, Bob Weir, Tommy Tedesco, Joe Pass, Barney Kessel, Lee Ritenour, Larry Coryel, Kenny Loggins, Frank Zappa, Eric Clapton, Steely Dan, Bob Dylan, Joni Mitchell, Emmylou Harris, Merle Haggard, Elvis Presley, James Burton, Heart, Rick Springfield, Tom Petty, James Taylor, Devo and many more. John’s amazing career as a master luthier has spanned nearly 50 plus years.

This week, I'm joined by John Carruthers, co-founder of meat social club ManBQue (manbque.com) and co-author of two must-own ManBQue cookbooks. We take a trip to a northwest side Taco Bell on the day of the national release of the Naked Chicken Chalupa... Taco Bell's new menu item that features taco contents folded into a shell made out of fried chicken. Is it any good? Well, it was enough to make John say, "I feel like Salieri in Mozart." You'll know what that means when you hear it in context. Promise.
