United States Barista Champion of 2025: Kay Cheon
This weeks podcast will be audio only because we had some issues with the camera recording this. The honest story is we were in a venue where chefs were butchering some freshly caught tuna (which looked lovely) and so the camera was out of focus and thus we couldn't use the footage. Kay Cheon is the United States Barista Champion of 2025 and founder of Parterre Coffee. This podcast was the last of our series in the USA and was recorded inside of Hooked Venice Beach. Kay's story is something many people can resonate with, he started as a home barista in another career and transitioned to coffee through pure love of the game. Plus, we get a surprise cameo from influential LA barista Nicely Abel! Like this podcast? Like, share, comment and tell two friends!!

The Enemy of Specialty Coffee: Julien Moussi & Cory Slater of SCFO
Australian coffee professionals have been up in arms about a new concept called Specialty Coffee Factory Outlet (SCFO). Kirk interviewed the founders Julian Moussi and Cory Slater to get their perspective. The team who founded Inglewood Coffee are trying a new strategy in specialty, selling high quality coffee for ultra cheap prices and betting on selling high quantities. They're going for a larger degree of marketshare by lowering costs wherever possible. The most controversial element of the strategy is their roaster callouts, where they compare their own coffee to that of another roasters and juxtapose them on price. Beyond this concept, Julian and Corey have had much success with many venues in Melbourne and offer some wisdom on where hospitality is going from here on, and how they're structuring their own venues. Whatever your thoughts on them, this is a fascinating listen and we thank Julian and Cory for taking the time to come on! Like this podcast? Like, share and tell two friends!

West Coast Chronicles: Andrew Sinclair, Madlab Coffee Roasters
Andrew Sinclair is without a doubt one of the best ranters in specialty coffee, and should probably have a podcast of his own. Until then, Kirk sat down with him at his roastery and discussed what its like operating a coffee shop in the US and just how hard it can be for people to make it, especially in the City of Angels. This podcast was done just by the cooling tray of Andrew's roaster! Like this podcast? Like, share and tell two friends!!
