Spatchcock Funk on Building a Party-Driven Cooking Show and Community Host Matt Major welcomes Alex DeRosa and Matt Read, co-owners of Spatchcock Funk, to discuss their party-themed cooking show and content journey. They explain the name’s roots in a tailgating cooking technique (“spatchcock”) and music (“Renegades of Funk”), and how their ad-agency backgrounds helped them turn filming recipes and friend parties into segments on CNY Central and a PBS series airing in 50+ markets. The show’s format centers on themed parties (e.g., adult prom) with three recipes and a cocktail, aiming to inspire adults to reconnect socially and build community. They share party hosting tips (prep-ahead dishes and batched cocktails), guest advice, production logistics, and plans for ticketed events. They describe sponsor offerings, PBS product-placement limits, and Season 3’s local PBS premiere April 7 (Tuesdays 9pm; Saturdays 3:30pm), with episodes also on YouTube. 00:00 Welcome to the New Studio 01:20 Meet Spatchcock Funk 02:44 Origin of the Name 05:44 Standing Out in the Attention Economy 06:11 From Parties to a TV Segment 08:48 Community Building and Staying Consistent 14:37 What the Show Feels Like 17:14 Easy Party Food and Batched Cocktails 19:57 How to Be a Great Party Guest 21:19 Behind the Scenes Party Chaos 23:13 Season Format and Shooting Logistics 23:57 Building the Show Format 25:08 Logistics and Guest Wrangling 25:56 Ticketed Parties and Wild Ideas 28:59 Not a Catering Company 29:32 Fans Want to Party Too 32:13 Sponsor Value and PBS Limits 35:13 Creative Brand Collabs 38:49 Biggest Party Dreams 41:16 Where to Watch Season Three 42:55 Taking the Party on the Road 44:20 Final Thanks and Sign Off
