Diet Starts Tomorrow

On this episode of Diet Starts Tomorrow, Mahesh Kotagi is joined by stand-up comedian and former magician Joe Russell for a hilarious and unexpected deep dive into everything from Buffalo wings to Buffalo’s hidden world of close-up magic. Joe talks about why he left his job at McDonald’s, what led him from sleight of hand to stand-up comedy, and why Buffalo is secretly the magic capital you never knew about.

We also get into some real talk about beef, burgers, and Indian guilt — including why so many Indians sneak-eat beef and pretend it’s chicken nuggets.

Food, magic, comedy, and a few confessions. You’re gonna want to hear this one.
