How U Doin? with the “Other” Eddie Fischer
Welcome back to Pizza Quest!
In this episode, we are joined by Eddie Fischer (no, not the famous singer and husband of Debbie Reynolds and father of Carrie Fisher), but the OTHER Eddie Fischer, a Jersey guy, the founder of How U Doin?, a new boys and girls club about to launch near Dallas, Texas. Yes, he and I share a long, shared history of East Coast pizza questing but, more importantly, his current quest is to provide a safe haven for teens struggling with the allure of drinking, drugs, and alienation. How U Doin is a clubhouse, but it’s much more, fueled by a vision to make a difference in the lives of the youngsters involved and, also, in the community at large. Hear how Eddie Fischer discovered and is fulfilling his new mission in life which, by the way, involves pizza making as part of his formula for success.
