The BanterThe Guys answer a listener's question about one of their favorite topics: Martinis!The ConversationThe Restaurant Guys travel to Charleston, SC to meet up with chef Orlando Pagán at his newly Michelin-starred restaurant Wild Common. They cover tasting menus, health challenges and, for some reason, Dungeons and Dragons. The Inside TrackThe Guys get real with Orlando about taking care of yourself and taking care of those around you.“I preach the same thing to my staff. Ttake care of yourself, take care of your body because if you take care of your body, then your mind is clear, then you're a better cook, you're a better husband, you're better friend, you know what it might be. And then we all win,” Orlando Pagán on The Restaurant Guys Podcast 2025BioChef Orlando Pagán is the chef behind Charleston's Wild Common, where his inventive, globally inspired tasting menus earned the restaurant a Michelin star. Trained at Johnson & Wales and seasoned in Michelin-level kitchens from Miami to San Francisco, he blends fine-dining precision with the flavors of his Puerto Rican heritage. After rising to Executive Chef at McCrady's Tavern, he took the helm at Wild Common, where his creativity — and resilience in the face of MS — define his cooking and leadership.

What I'd say is that being a one-trick pony, whether in sports or startups, just isn't enough. In the startup world, you need to be versatile. You can't just be the "home run hitter" or the "heavy hitter" who relies on a single skill. You need a well-rounded set of capabilities. You have to master what you're good at, then build on that by adding complementary skills. At the same time, you need to identify areas where you're not the best and be smart about outsourcing those tasks. It's all about having a multi-tool approach and focusing your energy where it makes the most impact.

Here's a sobering statistic: Over 50% of businesses that get ransomware close up shop in two years. That is a significant number. And yet, cybersecurity continues to be something often overlooked by small to medium-sized business owners. It's considered to be a problem for big corporations, like Goldman Sachs or Citigroup, not the Mom & Pop Tire shop on Main Street. But the unfortunate truth is that cyber hacking has evolved into a sort of business of itself - and for that reason, smaller companies are finding themselves the targets with more and more frequency over the last several years. Sounds like it's time to beef up your cybersecurity, no? That's exactly what Scott McCrady, CEO of SolCyber, discusses in today's episode. His company is revolutionizing the cybersecurity business for small to medium-sized businesses that lack the manpower, resources, and know-how to handle it on their own. With a “security subscription model,” you pay a monthly fee and get a team of dedicated, talented professionals who manage and respond to your security needs. If you're someone who “doesn't think it can happen to them,” think again. As the world continues to digitize, the threats will continue to grow. It's like Luigi asked, why isn't EVERY small and medium-sized business in America tapping into this resource? What You'll Learn: Why he left the corporate world to become an entrepreneur What he loves about working for a smaller company (hint: culture & innovation!) The three primary checkpoints you should take to reduce the risk of cyber threats The onboarding process for new clients How they can assist businesses in obtaining cyber insurance How their program has helped their clients score big contracts with their own customers …and much more!

Vern's in Charleston, SC represents the culmination of Daniel and Bethany Henize's years of experience. They have worked in lauded restaurants around the country, including the now-closed Charleston institution McCrady's, as well as Animal, Jon & Vinny's, and Gjusta in Los Angeles. Located in a quaint corner building from the 1880s and named after Daniel's grandfather, the menu emphasizes of-the-moment seasonal ingredients and shareable plates. The wine program focuses on small producers with organic and biodynamic practices, and glasses clink all evening in a dining room that feels like a relaxed dinner party at a chef's residence more than one of the hottest restaurants to open in the city in the last five years. The love that this couple has for an industry that has been through the wringer recently is evident, and their commitment to excellence already at Vern's provides hope that the art of dining out and dining well has staying power.

We are in for a treat for today's episode. Scott McCrady, CEO of SolCyber Managed Security Services, joins me today to talk about his incredible story about how he went from being an engineer to switching careers and working his way up in the cybersecurity sales space.When he left his engineer job to pursue his passion of working in sales, he started his new career with Symantec. While he was there for an entire decade, he was able to bring businesses from zero to helping them create a solid foundation in their Asia Pacific in Japan and Sydney businesses. Because of his incredible work, he got asked to come back and run the whole business which at the time, was one of the largest MSSP in the world, with 450 to 500 employees, and six security operations centers around the world.Later in his career he decided to go somewhere smaller and helped build out FireEye's MSSP program, both for sales outbound, but also to work with partners and channels.With years of experience in MSSP, Scott is sharing what he feels like his biggest learnings were, what could be different and what he took from it to make SolCyber Managed Security Services the best in the industry. Tune into today's episode where we expand more on Scott's thoughts on how to cut through the noise in a world where everybody can call themselves an MSSP and rise above it by really delivering results and building your reputation.If you are a sales leader at a startup, or you're in the sales team, and you're searching for your repeatable scalable sales process to grow sales faster, then please get in touch with me at andrew@unstoppable.do or you can also go to my site at www.unstoppable.do.

Fancy dining isn't all fluff. At Wild Common in Charleston, SC, Orlando Pagán puts his culinary passion on the plate with every service. He left Puerto Rico after high school to attend Johnson & Wales in Miami, and following graduation, spent three years at the Ritz-Carlton Coconut Grove. In San Francisco, he cooked in a handful of acclaimed restaurants before leading the kitchen of Michelin-starred The Village Pub as executive chef. In 2017 Pagán relocated to the Lowcountry of South Carolina to join Sean Brock at McCrady's Tavern, and in 2019, he helped open Wild Common, where he leads the culinary program as executive chef and was recently nominated for James Beard Best Chef: South. In the midst of this illustrious career, he was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis, but his careful management of the disease and focus on team and family keep him strong in the job.

This episode is the second half of my conversation with Matthew McCrady, the Director of Operations at Man O' War Golf in Lexington, Kentucky. We pick up where we left off, discussing the present and future states of merchandising and golf equipment for golfers and meander towards how Matthew sees the dynamic between grass roots junior golf on public courses and exposure to more aspirational courses as children grow into the game.
Longview, Washington resident Melinda McCrady spent 20 years working for Democrats in the state Legislature, and for that entire time, her blue-collar, timber-industry hometown elected Democratic representatives to the Legislature, to local office, even to Congress. But by 2016 Democrats were losing ground there, and certainly they lost big in 2021. Republicans now represent Longview, and not necessarily moderate Republicans, either. What happened to the generations of smaller-town working people who supported Democrats? Melinda and I talk about what issues cost Democrats seats, generational change, who makes up the elite and all the rest.
