Happy New Year! for 2023, Would you guys enjoy watching Comics/book/recipe content from my Queer YA sci-fi novel I wrote called PRAX and the Hazardous Countdown here on this channel? This year We are making into a COMIC and I would love to share the process with you all!
I want to be able to share all my creative passions with you all in one place, but I don't want to bother people who only want cooking? Are you open to all art I share with you guys? :D
The options are
1) Yes! to PRAX Comics, books, recipes, collabs, and interviews
2) No! only share food videos
3) Bring back my show DinnerViews!
4) Share everything! We want to support all creative art!

Hey friends. I'll be on #HellsKitchen Season 20. Here is what I posted on Instagram thank you all for being so supportive over the years. YouTube is still my favorite place and I hope to put ore content here this summer. ❤️
🔥🤣👨🏻🍳🙃🔥 Oh, ✨2019 Matthew✨ You are in for a crazy whirlwind of both global and personal twists in your next 2 years of life you could never even have fathomed in this moment! While nervously posing here for Hell’s Kitchen, You were terrified about how you’d do, fretting because you had no idea of your next steps for your career or for your life. BUT you just went for it! No matter what embarassing mistakes may come! And that took guts! (no matter how foolish 🤣) So thank you. Life truly is a funny mystery.
Also, YES, Matthew! You SHOULD finish @praxseries and create @dinnerviews. Stop second guessing yourself! You’ll be happy you took all those insane risks and invested in your own future. You’ve never been wrong when you believed in yourself, remained kind, and tried your best. I’m proud of you, kid ❤️ - 2021 Matthew 😌
Catch the season premiere of Hell’s Kitchen: Young Guns May 31st on FOX!

A little life Update (from Insta, but now YT!)👨🏻🍳😌:
I’m happy to share that I’ve accepted a very generous job offer from Freshly, inc in Maryland. Starting In March, I will be one of their R&D Chefs and have an added role as a Content Manager. The future of the culinary industry (post covid) is transitioning increasingly to cooking/eating at home. Food media’s importance is only growing. So I’m thrilled to learn more about the prepared meal section of the food world. With Freshly, I will help create delicious, healthy recipes for the company’s weekly menus that customers can enjoy safely at home. We will also create lots of fun new social food content (photos/videos) for Freshly’s fans.
For the past 2 years, since my last full-time job at the wonderful BuzzFeed Tasty, I’ve been so lucky to freelance remotely when possible, be super creative, and try tons of new challenging opportunities. I created my own show Dinnerviews, I produced content for local restaurants/food businesses and for larger companies like Jikoni, Viacom/MTV, Avatar: The Last Airbender, Juni Learning, and Allrecipes. I also was able to finally finish a HUGE passion project that is coming VERY soon. 👀👀👀
I am so appreciative of all the lessons I’ve learned and the experience I’ve gained.
However, these past 2 years have also been incredibly painful and difficult in my own private personal life for a multitude of health/family reasons. And DUH the entire world was a mess because of the pandemic, radicals, and our government. So, I just wanted to point out that life isn’t always sunshine, and you learn the most from your biggest mistakes and failures 😔. Being artistically creative truly is the greatest gift life grants to save us from dark times.
I’m very grateful to my family for being there during my roughest patches, for my lovely friends who always check in on me, and for you all for the support and laughs.
I’m excited for this next chapter of life and I’m thrilled to keep creating art to share with you all. Thank you for believing in me, my work, and my passions. 😌
Also, for my YouTube fam, Dinnerviews can't resume until after covid is completely gone, but I have a great new project to share with you all next week!

Hello everyone! Just to update you all. I'm currently making educational food videos for allrecipes.com and Meredith food studios during the pandemic. I hope to do a third season of dinnerviews once this is all over. But until then, I'd figured I'd reshare some of my great recipes on my channel for all the new friends of this channel.
Hope you are staying safe and sane! ❤️ Here are some Amazing Mashed potatoes with wild mushrooms! This recipe will WOW Your family and friends (or yourself... If you can eat it all yourself. I don't judge! Been there! 🤣)
