Standish913.com has been blessed to do an exclusive interview with...
"SAKARI SMITHWICK"!
Let's get into some exclusive questions...
STANDISH: What is the first thing you ever remember cooking?
SAKARI: A peanut butter and jelly sandwich. I was probably under ten years old, climbing up on the counter, making it myself with fresh bread and a homemade jam. It sounds simple, but it was transformational. It was the first time I created something for myself, and it gave me a sense of independence. That moment really started my journey with food.
STANDISH: Who is someone you looked up to as a child and still do today?
SAKARI: My parents and my grandparents. They worked incredibly hard and sacrificed so much to give me opportunities. If it weren’t for them, I truly wouldn’t be here today.
STANDISH: What is something you hate doing in the kitchen?
SAKARI: Cleaning dishes. It’s never the fun part. But that’s exactly why dishwashers and porters are the heartbeat of the kitchen. Without them, nothing runs. I always make it a point to remind teams how essential they are to the success of any restaurant.
STANDISH: What was the most nerve-wracking part of being on Hell’s Kitchen?
SAKARI: Not knowing what would happen next. Every day there was unpredictable—new challenges, new pressures, with complete spontaneity. You really had to expect the unexpected.
STANDISH: How was it working with Gordon Ramsay? Any advice that stuck with you?
SAKARI: Gordon was incredible. One of the best lessons he gave me was learning how to bounce back. He really humanized mistakes. Everyone messes up—it’s not about avoiding mistakes entirely, but about learning from them and not repeating them. That lesson applies far beyond the kitchen.
STANDISH: Did you expect to land Hell’s Kitchen?
SAKARI: I wasn’t sure. It felt like something bigger than me. They reached out after seeing my content, and after thinking it through, I decided to go for it. I devoted a whole chapter in my book, SAVOR YOUR JOURNEY about the experience and how I came to the decision to move forward. I’m incredibly grateful I did so, particularly for my Dad, who had passed during that time. Still in doing do, I made lifelong friends, teammates and memories that will stay with me forever.
STANDISH: What’s your favorite food for takeout—and why?
SAKARI: Chinese food always hits. My go-to order is pepper steak—no peppers, no onions, white rice. Just beef and sauce. It’s simple, comforting, and undefeated.
STANDISH: Tell us about your recurring kitchen nightmare.
SAKARI: An undercooked pork chop. That’s how I left Hell’s Kitchen, and that image stayed with me for a long time. Definitely, kept me up at night.
STANDISH: What’s the most underrated cooking ingredient, in your opinion?
SAKARI: Coconut oil. It’s great for desserts, marinades, even wellness uses like teeth cleaning. It’s incredibly versatile and doesn’t get enough credit.
STANDISH: What do you listen to while you’re cooking?
SAKARI: Definitely J. Cole. I love strong lyrics that resonate with me and I’m really excited about his new album.
STANDISH: How often does the walk-in cooler hear your screams?
SAKARI: Not very often anymore. I’ve done it in the past—sometimes it’s just breathing in the walk-in—but I really try to regulate myself and stay grounded throughout the day. Maintaining your cool is incredibly important.
STANDISH: If you could change one thing in the world today, what would it be?
SAKARI: Access to healthy food in communities facing “food apartheids”. Everyone deserves nourishing, quality, and enriching produce and products—specifically in schools for the students, underserved communities, and access for the homeless. That’s something I’m deeply passionate about and why I developed “Nourish the Nation”, my food education tour in NY. I visit different high schools and colleges leading discussions on the importance of food education and teaching the culinary students, who I hope to be the next emerging leaders in this industry. For more info on my "Nourish the Nation" tour please visit Nourish The Nation - People, Places, Plates Tour — Smithwick Provisions
STANDISH: Tell us about your book.
SAKARI: Savor Your Journey is built around three principles: passion, purpose, and promise. If you can discover what you love, understand what fulfills you, and then execute on that promise, you’re already on the path to achieving what you want. It is a hybrid cookbook and memoir of my life becoming a chef and a collection of interviews from some of the biggest culinary voices making an impact right now. My key recipes and food pantry are also included. The takeaway is simple: The journey is the reward, not just the destination. Enjoying the process is key to real happiness.
STANDISH: Where can readers follow you?
SAKARI: Sakari Smithwick across all platforms and Sakari Smithwick Live on YouTube. My book Instagram page is @savoryourjourneybook.
STANDISH: Anything else you’d like readers to know?
SAKARI: I’m incredibly proud of my book, SAVOR YOUR JOURNEY. I invested in it and wrote for it for the youth to be inspired to pursue their goals and turn their dreams into a reality, but it takes work and building relationships. A portion of the proceeds supports food education and access to nourishing food in underserved communities. We’re also using the momentum from this book to help build a food center as our next venture. Even if you don’t buy the book, follow along—I share free tips daily online with the mission to add value wherever I can. Much love.

Standish913.com has been blessed to do an exclusive interview with...
"ELAINA RUTH"!
Let's get into some exclusive questions...
STANDISH: What is the first thing you ever remember cooking?
The first thing I remember cooking was pasta bolognese. I entered this dish into a cooking competition at the college that I was attending in the summer and won a scholarship!
STANDISH: Who is someone you looked up to as a child & still do today?
As a kid I looked up to the women in my family. My mom and her sister, Grandmother and her sisters.
STANDISH: What is something you hate doing in the kitchen?
I hate having to remind people that there is always something to do. I hate a lazy chef or line cook.
STANDISH: What's the most nerve racking part of being on Hell's Kitchen?
The most nerve racking part of HK was the dorms! No light switches, no clocks, and having to live with folks I didn't know was pretty annoying. Heavy snorers on this season 🤣
STANDISH: How is it working with Gordon Ramsay? Any good advice he's given you?
Chef Ramsey was so outstanding. He is tough but he has every right to be! When I get asked this question, I always chuckle because he reminds me of when I was a kid and got in trouble with my Grandfather (Chef I'm not calling you old if you hear this!!!!). What I mean is that, when I do something dumb that I knew better not to and Grandpa would yell at me/correct me, educate me and reassure me all in the same breath. That was Chef Ramsey! Also, he's a lot taller than I expected & I mentioned that on the yacht. Again on the yacht, I asked him at the dinner table "What advice would you give a Chef who is feeling stagnant in their career at this moment?" Chef goes, "If you are not married or have children, then you should be doing everything you want to and going everywhere and learning as much as you can! You have no limits so utilize them." I wasn't asking for a friend, I was asking for me! I took that advice and began my career in education and am now a high school Culinary Arts teacher.
STANDISH: Did you expect to land Hell's Kitchen?
If you're asking, did I expect to get on HK then never in my wildest dreams! It's still so surreal. Did I expect to be in cooking competitions? Absolutely, I'm extremely competitive. I'm a Leo , it's in my make up!!
STANDISH: What is your favorite food for take out? Why?
I love hot lemon pepper wings with extra blue cheese & curly fries or some fried fish. I'm from the South so I love a good piece of fried fish from the back of the fish markets.
STANDISH: Tell the readers your reoccurring kitchen nightmare…
Greens (collards, mustards, chard, etc) with stems included. So often do we strip greens off the stems & toss them. Show stems the same love as you do the leaves & serve them!
STANDISH: What do you listen to while you chef it up?
This one is striking. Anything from Beyonce to Slaughter to Prevail to UGK to Metallica. But not country music or R&B. We need to be crunk or raging!!
STANDISH: How many times a week does the walk-in cooler hear your screams?
Now, as a Chef Instructor? At least 12 times a week. These students will test your patience but I've always lacked in that area anyways, so it works out. 😂
STANDISH: If you could change one thing in the world today, what would that be?
The world needs more humanity, man. Put yourself in someone else's shoes! We all are unique but if you take the time and talk to someone and get to know them on a deeper than surface level, you'll see that we go through some of the same shit.
STANDISH: Anything else you'd like to include?
For those of you who are feeling stagnant in life/career, give yourself one more chance before giving up! It sounds cheesy but it saved my freaking life! I know it can save yours.

"CLINT HOWARD"!
Let's get into some exclusive questions...
STANDISH: The Terrifier franchise is known for its intense and gory style—what was it like stepping into that world?
Filmmaking is filmmaking. I enjoy working and working on T3 was a wonderful opportunity. Horror is a legit genre of storytelling. Lots of fans really appreciate it.
STANDISH: What was it like working with director Damien Leone and the rest of the cast on such a dark, horror-driven set?
Damien is really great dude and a great leader. He and Phil and the rest of the team made the experience first rate. As far as it being dark, it’s not like we were using real blood or anything!
STANDISH: Fans loved your role as Johnson in Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery. What do you remember most from filming that?
All the APs were great. Jay Roach is a great dude and he created a creative space in which to play. Good material is good material and it was all on the page.
STANDISH: Mike Myers is such a unique creative force—what was your experience collaborating with him on set?
Oddly enough, I didn’t meet Mike until after production. While I was doing my work he was getting in and out of makeup. He is an extremely talented comedic force.
STANDISH: The Austin Powers films are full of iconic comedic moments. Was there anything funny or unexpected that happened behind the scenes?
my scenes in the three films went off without a hitch. I probably was on the set for 45 minutesoon the first installment.
STANDISH: Would you be open to returning for another Austin Powers film if the franchise ever made another movie?
In a heartbeat
STANDISH: The makeup and set designs were legendary in the Grinch—how long did it take to get into character each day?
It was roughly three hours in hair/makep and wardrobe.
STANDISH: What was your favorite memory from working alongside Jim Carrey during that production?
What a genius he is.
STANDISH: Did you expect How the Grinch Stole Christmas to become such a lasting holiday classic?
We knew…
STANDISH: If you could give one piece of advice to aspiring actors, what would it be?
You have to be very patient, very dedicated and understand you’re going to have to make sacrifices if you’re going to find a foothold in the business. My estimation is that it takes 10 years to find your footing
STANDISH: You’ve worked in Hollywood since childhood — what keeps your passion for acting alive after all these years?
It’s a great way to make a living.
STANDISH: You’ve appeared in so many iconic films, from Apollo 13 to The Waterboy and Austin Powers — is there a role that stands out as your personal favorite?
I’ve got a number of favorites, but Apollo 13 ranks at the top of my list.
STANDISH: What’s the best piece of advice your brother, Ron Howard, has ever given you about the film industry?
(Ron advice).
STANDISH: You’ve successfully transitioned between comedy, horror, and drama — how do you choose which roles to take on next?
an offer for work will come, I’ll consider if I’m available and I usually take the job. I do not orchestrate my career.
STANDISH: What’s on Clint's playlist?
David Bowie and The Who
STANDISH: What are your social links?
Clint Howard Official on IG . it’s just my name, Clint Howard on Facebook
STANDISH: Anything else you'd like to include?
Onward and upward!

"LEE QUICK"!
Let's get into some exclusive questions...
STANDISH: How did you first get casted as Officer Jenny in *Pokémon*?
LEE: I was already doing voice work for TAJ Productions and was asked to audition! Prior to that I was doing Off Off Broadway Theatre in NYC!
STANDISH: What was your initial reaction when you learned you’d be part of such
an iconic series?
LEE: Excited, but I saw it as just another anime job, not realizing it would become so popular
or iconic! I think we all were surprised!
STANDISH: What was the recording process like for *Pokémon* during that era?
LEE: It was very different than what we do now! New episodes where being faxed in as we were in the booth. I remember a lot of adlibbing, due to the translations not always going with the flaps in the animation. In the beginning, instead of 2 monitors (one with the anime and the other with the script) we had a TV, monitor hanging from the ceiling, a music stand for the script, a mic and the booth!
STANDISH: Did you record alone or alongside other cast members?
LEE: No, I don’t remember doing so but it could’ve happened! I will say it was more fun when I was voicing after another cast member had already, so I was able to play off them.
STANDISH: What made Officer Jenny such a memorable character to voice?
LEE: I’m not sure! I’m too subjective to answer that! She had some fun tongue and cheek moments for sure!
STANDISH: Were there any particularly fun or challenging lines you remember
recording?
LEE: There was one monologue that was hard for some reason- I wish I could remember what exactly was the challenge - I just remember doing more takes than I usually liked or did.
STANDISH: Did you realize at the time how huge *Pokémon* would become
worldwide?
LEE: No - not initially. I think it changed for us all when we went to the Movie Premier for the 1 st Movie.
STANDISH: What advice would you give to aspiring voice actors today?
LEE: Oh Gosh - It’s so different now, than it was then. The best advice is learn to act- It’s not just about being able to do fun voices. It is an acting job and practice reading out loud
every day. That is a skill that is very necessary!
STANDISH: Are there any behind the scenes stories fans would be surprised to hear?
LEE: I don’t know how “behind the scenes” this would be, but here goes: I get asked about the Arcanine flub happening.
Jenny says,” Arcanine Flamethrower!”- to Growlithe-! That was written in the script and at the time, we were still getting to know the characters and the Pokemons! No one caught it and it is forever in the series!
STANDISH: What does Officer Jenny mean to you personally now, years later?
LEE: She means the coolest connection I could ever make with people! I am grateful that I had the opportunity to voice her! I’m a Lucky Gal!
STANDISH: If you could say one thing to *Pokémon* fans around the world, what
would it be?
LEE: “How do I know you didn’t steal that Pokemon?!” Just kidding - The Pokemon community is such a wonderful place for All! I’m humbled to be a part of it! What a journey it has been!
STANDISH: Are there any new projects, characters, or creative ventures you're excited about that fans should look forward to?
LEE: I am working on a podcast for later in 2026 - Details to Come!
STANDISH: What’s on Lee;s playlist?
LEE: A little of everything! Glass Animals, Depeche Mode, Beatie Boys, Billie Eilish, Patsy Cline, The Cure, 21 Pilots, Nirvana, Amy Winehouse, Blondie! I’m all over the place
with music!
STANDISH: What are your social links?
Instagram: @hlquick
X: @LeeQuick00
STANDISH: Anything else you'd like to include?
LEE: Be Kind to one another - life is too
short for anything else! And: Gotta Catch em All!!
