I’m Josh, by the way...
And I’ve spent my career building restaurants
that win.
From fast casual to Michelin-awarded.
In markets around the world.
With profitability baked in, not hoped for.
FULL COMP is a weekly conversation about how to build a restaurant that actually works.
From fixing profit first, to building standards that hold, to hiring and leading without burning out, and beyond.
You’ll hear the unfiltered playbooks behind great restaurants, plus candid conversations with operators, chefs, and industry outsiders who have cracked the code on growth without chaos.
So you can stop surviving service and start running a business with stronger margins, a better team, repeatable marketing, and real owner freedom.
Praise for the show
I’ve spent money on consultants who said less than what I get in a single episode.
“This is the first restaurant podcast that talks about profit without turning it into a spreadsheet lecture.”
“I listen on Tuesday and fix one thing before the weekend. That habit alone has moved the needle.”
“It’s rare to hear someone say what operators are thinking and then give a clean way out.”
