We will also talk to Sebastian Joseph-Day, starting nose tackle for the NFL Los Angeles Rams to discuss his latest project, Dine N Bash, a Digital Series about his love of food and culture. The series, which airs on YouTube highlights local restaurants in Los Angeles, sharing their origin stories, top dishes and what makes them so unique. Joseph-Day’s love of food came from his parents who are from Haiti. As a child he watched his parents make everything from chilean seabass to homemade risotto and even Sebastian’s favorite lamb dish! Combining his love of food and passion to uplift others around him, Joseph-Day created Dine & Bash. Joseph-Day, who plays a key role in the LA Rams number one ranked defense in the NFL, has a huge personality, and an ever-bigger heart. This off-season he donated meals to frontline workers and hosted his own online fundraiser to raise even more money for COVID-19 relief. Joseph-Day has also been active in social justice initiatives, recently writing an OP ED in Medium on educational inequality as well as presenting a check on behalf of the Players Coalition to schools in the LA area for educational support. Dine & Bash with Sebastian Joseph Day is produced by Malka Sports and is the latest in an exciting series of new Digital Stack programs launched by Malka.
