Patrick Onyido is a super-talented, self-taught baker. He's the owner of a bakery and cafe business in North London, Paddy Cakes, which has become a hub for the local community, and has a loyal following of customers as a result of the sensational quality of his products.
Patrick and I talk about the immigrant experience (Patrick moved to London from Nigeria when he was 10), the experience of growing up as a black man in England, the importance of mentors in his life, how food influenced his career, and how his experience of being on remand in prison made him into the man he is today. Patrick and I also discussed how most men don't talk about how they're feeling, which is contributing to a crisis in men's mental health - and how we're trying to encourage men to talk to each other.
ps reference to "On The Mat" - this was my first recorded show and this was the working title of the podcast at that time
