You can do it, do it (ycdidi) is an interview show where JP Camara and Steve Carroll talk with people whose lives were transformed by trying something new. Earlier this year, we realized that we know a lot of people who fascinate us. From pinball players to pizza makers, ballerinas to graphic designers, illustrators to improv comedians, physicians, jewelry makers, personal trainers, Bollywood dancers, musicians, and more— We look forward to introducing you to our friends.
This week we're joined by Shane Matlock — Owner and founder of The Burgundian: Coffee and Waffles. Shane grew up in a home that prioritized getting the family together for dinner and with a Grandmother who was famous for submitting recipes to the local paper. He developed a love for travel that led him to serve in the Army, and carried that through to a job as a Product Manager at a tourism company. Shane's enthusiasm for food and travel is absolutely contagious… It was only a matter of time before he would found Burgundian to begin sharing his passion for food and drink with even more people.
Topics include an inability to stay still, creating a vision beyond your current circumstances, willingness to work hard even when it’s not going well, and the audacity to dream big.

What’s a Burgundian, anyways? It’s someone who loves food and drink in both quality and quantity!
A double-decker bus that doubles as a traveling cafe? Let’s do brunch. I’m in.

Shane’s new Burgundian restaurant will be opening in Attleboro soon — they just signed the lease!
Shane’s advice on teaching kids to cook: Use it as an excuse to spend more time together and give them room to be creative.
