Beef’s best-kept secrets. Cuts you’ve never heard of. Procurement ingenuity to boost your bottom line. Listen up, because it’s all coming your way in season two of MeatSpeak.

Produced in Northeast Ohio, the meat science and culinary podcast returns to popular podcasting platforms everywhere this fall.

The show, powered by the Certified Angus Beef ® brand, launches its second season on Sept. 30 in coordination with International Podcast Day.  Fresh topics, new guests and—perhaps the biggest change—a new co-host, Meat Scientist Diana Clark, joins Chef Tony Biggs and Bryan Schaaf in their meaty escapades.

“This is a gathering place for people who really want to nerd out on meat science, cooking science and the processes that happen along the way in the story of a steak,” Schaaf says. “Because we are a part of the Certified Angus Beef ® brand, we are instantly connected to some of the most interesting, talented and important minds in the food world. This is an opportunity to share their stories, their techniques and, ultimately, their experiences that have generated a lot of success.”

An impressive lineup of guests, ranging from James Beard award winners and food television personalities to significant contributors in meat academia and some of the most innovative farmers and ranchers in America, are confirmed for the upcoming season.

A few of the season’s guests include Arins Robins of Evie Mae’s BBQ, Canada’s Diva Q (Danielle Bennett), Kristina Gaardbo of the Chicago Culinary Kitchen, award-winning chef Stephanie Izard, and Adam Richman, formerly of Man vs. Food.

Excited to have a new co-host and a season of beefy episodes with special guests, Schaaf looks forward to breaking down confusing cut names with Clark early in the season.
