This week on Brunswick Waves, Frank and Christina sit down with the multi-talented Frank Buda to dive into the sweet world of his legendary cheesecakes. But it’s more than just dessert—Frank shares why Brunswick has his heart, how theater shaped his journey, and what keeps him inspired. From the kitchen to the stage, this episode is a celebration of passion, place, and the unexpected paths that connect them.

On this episode of Brunswick Waves, Frank kicks things off with a relatable gripe — when cashiers get way too excited about the items he's buying, sparking conversations he'd rather avoid. Christina schools him on the reason cashiers do that.

Then, Frank and Christina sit down with Brunswick artist Ed Hose, whose colorful, whimsical work can be found all over town.

Ed talks about her creative journey, her belief that EVERYONE has a creative genius living inside them and the fact that she's pretty sure she could perform an appendectomy (just don’t ask her to do any math first).

It's a fun, lively conversation you don't want to miss.
