    Sam Homan (Joseph’s) - an industry in transition

    06/10/2026 | 37 mins.
    With more than 20 years cooking experience, Sam Homan is now executive chef at Joseph’s, a contemporary but grand restaurant at Werribee Park, outside Melbourne. We talk about an industry in transition: punishing long hours have been reined in but that makes it hard to skill up young chefs, even if they’re keen. What to do?

    29/09/2026 | 30 mins.
    Is it ever not crunch time in hospitality?

    We’re continuing our ‘state of the industry’ series with a dive into a part of the food world that tends to get less attention, even though it's often crucial to key life milestones. Kellie Ashton runs Pure Catering in Brisbane, a family-owned business that has clocked up an impressive 20 years.

About Dirty Linen - A Food Podcast with Dani Valent
Dirty Linen goes behind the scenes in restaurants, cafes and bars, covering issues the hospitality industry finds hard to share in public - it's all up for grabs and everything is on the table. Your host is food journalist Dani Valent. For 20 years, Dani has been writing about restaurants and the people who give them life. But she's an outsider, a critic, a tourist, a fan. Despite hearing the stories and writing the tales, she's never really understood what happens behind the scenes. Now it's time to get stuck in, with compassion, humour and fearlessness. Dirty Linen goes deep, both in conversations with individuals and in pressing topics. We ask the hard questions and discuss the big issues, bringing a unique perspective to a world that we all intersect with but often don’t understand. Dirty Linen is a Deep in the Weeds Production.
