About this episode

In this episode, Madeline Sells discusses the legacy of Deb and the values behind Roast House with the crew.

Where do I even begin...Roast House Crew is my favorite. If my job allowed it, I’d be there every day, sipping coffee, breathing in the roaster, and taking tours with Teddy. But for real, Aaron, Allison, and Evan have carried on the legacy of a legend, Deb. We were all first introduced at Radio Bar. Aaron and Evan gave me my first shot of Malört, and honestly, it was terrible, but it led to something better. We started talking, and somehow that conversation turned into a deep dive on Deb, the force behind Roast House and First Ave Coffee, and one of the most impactful people to learn about and talk about. What stuck with me most, and what still comes up in my life daily since recording this episode, is the values and mission behind Roast House. That was the thread that connected all of us in that moment, and it’s the thing I carry forward. To live like Deb. To never waver on those values. Give it a listen, and go check Roast House out, and make sure to get a tour from Teddy!
