I'm your host, Rob Sharkey.
I am a farmer, which means I make food, and then that food gets eaten most times at a restaurant.
But which restaurant do you go to?
You can look it up on the Yelp or the Google machine, but yeah, I want someone that's actually been there and is gonna tell me how it tastes.
Well, that person is our guest today, Seth Boyer.
How you doing, Seth?
- I'm doing pretty well, thanks for asking.
- You're from Peoria?
- Yeah, born and raised in Peoria Heights.
Bounced around to Chicago a little bit, and now I'm in Peoria.
- Were you a Patriot?
- Peoria Heights Patriot, yeah.
Unfortunately, I think it was tough being a patriot on the football team, but they're getting better, you know, they're doing pretty good.
- In high school, they beat the living tar out of us, the Patriots.
- Really?
I wasn't on the team.
- 'Cause I remember that.
It's like down there in a Mosquito Bowl, your football field.
It's a horrible place.
- Yeah, and the stands are pretty weird too.
I like the rustic feeling of it, but yeah, you're totally right.
- I hate that place.
(both laughing) - Yeah, I have some good and bad memories there, but all the bad memories was being on the football team, usually just, you know, losing them.
But it was fun, it was fun.
- So I'm on the old TikTok, right?
And I just, you know, doing my thing, scrolling around, and 90% of my stuff is like farming.
And then I get to a random video, and he is like, Peoria.
And I think it was for Lou's Drive-In, you know, the one there on War Memorial.
And it was this guy that's talking about restaurants in Peoria.
And then I'd click on your page, and like an hour later, I've, like, "Oh, gosh, I need to hang the phone up."
That's you.
- Yeah, that's what I do.
I just, I love going around to these local places that I either visited as a kid or maybe never had the chance to.
Now as an adult, I like to go to 'em, hit 'em up, and kind of see what I was missing out on or share my experience there.
But that's me.
Yeah, I go to those restaurants and try to share my experience.
- So content creator, you call yourself that?
- I'd say that, yeah.
You know, you'll get an influencer every now and then, but if you ask me to address myself, I'm more so just like a fool who posts food videos on the internet.
But so a content creator.
- What was that?
How you started is doing the restaurants?
- Actually, so funny enough, I started on YouTube doing skateboarding videos, car reviews.
- Good Lord, skateboarding.
Wanna be Tony Hawk?
- More like Chris Cole, Ryan Sheckler.
But yeah, those other skateboarders.
- I'll pretend to know who that is.
- But yeah, no, that was when I was younger I wanted to do the skateboarding stuff, and I was posting that, car reviews, and every now and then you'd get a video, like 10,000 views, like, "Oh, perfect."
The other one, like five views.
And I was only doing YouTube, and then everyone was telling me, "You should do TikTok."
And at this point I didn't even have it on my phone.
I was so against it.
I was like, "Isn't it for kids?
Doing dances or something?"
And this was like 2022, maybe 2023, I gave in.
- Oh, you did come late, didn't you?
- Yeah.
- Yeah.
- And that's another reason I was like, "It's too late.
People are already posting.
You know, there's no room."
So I went there, and for whatever reason, I didn't stick with the skateboarding, car videos.
I did one food video, and within the first two, I got one with half a million.
And I was like, "I guess this is what I'm doing now."
- [Rob] Which restaurant?
- It was in Chicago, Superdawg.
It was actually in the Chicago suburbs.
I forget which suburb it's in, but just a hot dog place.
Similar to Lou's Drive-In, actually.
People love those spots that are kind of like historic that you can just kind of drive up to.
- So you, well this kind of, does it go hand in hand because you're an actor too?
- Yeah, yep, yep.
I do think it goes hand in hand a little bit, just because when I turn on that camera, there's definitely a character to it.
You know, I try to be loud and in your face to reel you in.
But I'm far from it in real life, most likely.
And then for acting, that's nothing but characters.
But I think the biggest pro is, you know, with being an actor, you kind of just wait for permission, and you're kind of like a puzzle piece.
Whereas content creating, I'm like the director.
I can be in it as much as I want.
I can say what I want.
I'm the whole puzzle, not just a piece.
I can, you know, highlight whatever I want.
So it's a nice balance between the two.
Lots of similarities.
- So I don't know what actors do.
Did you, like, go to acting school or any of that?
- Yeah, I did.
You don't have to.
You're probably better off not 'cause the best actors just kind of just get found 'cause they, you know?
- The best actors were related to actors.
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.
But I did go to, I went to Bradley and studied theater there for a little bit.
I was spending so much money that I knew what I wanted to do, and I was like, "To be an actor, I don't need a degree."
I really want one.
But I just moved, like after two years, moved to Chicago, threw myself into the craziness, took some smaller acting classes and studios taught by people with agents, and next thing you know, I was, you know, signed with an agency, auditioning for the bigger shows.
So that's kinda how it started.
- I've heard that whole acting thing is a little saturated.
A lot of competition.
- Yeah, yeah.
I've been in, I can't tell you how many auditions I've been to where I'm in line with 40 people who look like me.
- Really?
- A little bit taller, a little bit more muscular.
- Don't you hate that?
- Just, yeah.
Better hair, better everything.
A little younger.
- [Rob] It's the story of my life.
- And they had tons of competitions.
And I go to the next audition, it's the same 40 people or the same, you know.
So it's like, it's a small community, but there's definitely a lot of people doing it.
But mostly a lot of people give up before they get that, you know, that first anything.
- You have been in some stuff.
"Chicago Fire."
What were you doing there?
- Yep, I was in "Chicago Fire."
I was playing, my character's name was Dale, I believe.
Just a musician who got caught in a fire at a recording studio.
And pretty much the whole episode is kind of like, you know, what caused the fire?
Who did it?
Was it malicious?
Was it an accident?
- [Rob] Were you disfigured?
- Yeah, they put some pretty cool... - Like they had some gnarly stuff going on there.
- That was the coolest part.
The coolest part was sitting in that makeup chair for, you know, like five hours getting it done.
- Five hours?
- Yeah, yeah.
I had to go there a whole separate day when they were like testing it.
They're like, "Nah, we don't like this one.
Let's do it again, take it off."
And then they put on a different one.
- Kidding me.
- Yeah.
- Hey, you get paid for that?
- Yep.
- For sitting there?
- Yep, you do.
- Okay.
I would hope so.
- Especially 'cause the drive, I was living in Peoria at the time too, so... - Oh, yeah.
- It was kinda like, "Hey, be here tomorrow at 5:00 AM," and it was like 7:00 PM the night before.
I'm like, "I guess I gotta rent a car."
- "Just start now."
- What else have you been in?
- So I've done some other movies.
That's my, I mean, "Chicago Fire" is the highlight.
I've done a documentary about the White Sox.
The White Sox scandal, where they kind of- - [Rob] "Eight Men Out" or whatever it was.
- Yeah, you know?
- Not that one, but.
- It's a similar, same story where they kind of, they threw the series, like, a while ago.
So I did a documentary on that.
I've done some horror films.
I've done a lot of horror slasher films.
- Were you the guy?
- Oh, I can't say.
You gotta watch.
- Oh, okay.
- Yeah, but no, I've done like those like, "Oh, who did it?"
films, you know?
That one's "Final Summer" in particular.
It's kinda like a "Friday the 13th," "Scream" type of vibe, you know?
So it's really fun.
And then most recently, I have a movie in festivals doing a little run right now called "Mara."
And then "Final Days: Tales of the End Times" is out on Amazon Prime and Tubi as well.
And that one is really cool.
It's one of my favorites.
- It's gotta be weird.
Like you can go on Amazon and see yourself.
- It is pretty, it's weird.
It's cool.
I think, I don't know if it's Amazon or Tubi, hopefully Amazon, you can type in my name and you'll see like it'll list it.
But yeah, I think it's on both, and it's pretty surreal, especially just because of, you know, being from Peoria, you know, you're kind of like, I remember being told when I kind of thought of the idea of wanting to do it, it's like, "Well, it's not gonna happen here.
You kinda have to move."
And I did have to move to kind of start, but now I'm back and it's actually when I started to flourish is when I moved back to my hometown.
- Yeah, is that when you got this?
- Yeah, you know what, actually, I got this bad boy while I was in Chicago.
- It's pretty slick.
- Yeah, it's nice.
And as you see, you know, this is one of one handcrafted in England by... - Is that a real diamond?
- No shot.
This is made by my friend, actually.
So when I was moving from Chicago back to Peoria, this was kinda like my gift, like going away gift.
He owned a trophy shop, so he made me one of these little funny things.
And yeah, so it's not prestigious, you know, it's just something that my friend gave me.
But I love it because it keeps me grounded, and when I look at it, it just reminds me that, you know, ultimately I wanna make impact with everything I do.
But ultimately it's for fun, you know?
- Yeah.
Well, let's go back to what you are doing, right?
So if for people that have not seen your social media, will you describe it?
- Yeah.
So pretty much in the state it's at now, I will take, go through all my comments, and I take whatever comment that kind of sticks out to me, maybe has the most recommendations or most likes, and my viewers and my commenters pick where I try next.
Whether it's a place they want to highlight, maybe it's a place they're curious about.
They're like, "Hey, I've never been here.
Can you go here?"
And then I take that comment, I research where it's at, and I go to that restaurant.
Usually just pop up.
I never reach out to the restaurants, I just pop up there.
- Oh, really?
Okay.
- I kind of go incognito.
I love when they reach out to me and, you know, ask me to come there and invite me.
- I would if I had a restaurant, yeah.
- Yeah, and I love it.
And that feels really cool because that's when it feels like a community when they're inviting me.
Yeah, I love that.
But for the most part, I'd say 98% I show up as a customer.
They don't know what I'm doing.
They might see me in the corner, you know, recording.
- It's a weird guy filming his food.
- Yeah, they might confront me about it, or I'll just take it home and review it.
But yeah, for the most part I just kind of pop up based off the comments and yeah.
- Okay.
And for people that don't know you, extremely loyal, large following.
You're like the guy in Peoria now that you look towards to where to go to eat.
Is it almost some pressure that you have to, I don't know, you have to be good at what you do?
- Maybe a little bit, but then just to go back to what this trophy reminds me of, ultimately I'm just doing it for fun.
And not only for fun, but also to make an impact.
But I try to just remember, this is fun for me.
I'm gonna be doing this anyways off camera, like visiting these local spots.
I might as well record it.
It's always a little bit of pressure when I maybe go to a local restaurant that maybe isn't the best, you know?
And then I'm like, "Okay, I have a choice to make here."
And that's when, usually, actually, there has to be something good on the menu, right?
So I'll order more until I find something I can highlight.
- Until you find something good?
- Until I can find something.
Because that's what I want to do.
I wanna spread the positivity about these local places, 'cause a lot of times they don't have the marketing budget or something, so I wanna show it off, but also be honest.
So if I don't like a certain item, I'll definitely let it be known.
But there's something that everyone will like on a menu somewhere.
And that's what I'm trying to do, is find whatever that item is.
- That's what I do notice about you.
Because is critic, is that a bad word to you?
- Not a bad word.
I don't know if I'm certified to be a critic.
- Who is?
- Exactly, yeah.
I think I'm my own worst critic if anything.
But, you know, to critique food, I mean, I don't know if I can consider myself one, but yeah, I've definitely been referred to as a critic before.
- Because like all the other critics, right, that have gained fame, going back to like, you know, the newspaper days, right?
You had to critique.
It was negative.
You had to be negative.
And because that's what people want.
And on social media, I don't know if you've noticed or not, but negativity is a lot easier to do than positivity.
It goes a lot farther.
But you, like you said, I've seen you not like some stuff, but then it's like, then you find something that you did.
I would say overall, from what I've seen, which I've watched most of your stuff, it's positive.
Here you are.
You probably could maybe grow faster, grow bigger, being that negative guy.
I mean, why stay positive?
- I think it's just me trying to be honest.
And I think there's just a tie with me and my home city where, you know, I've bounced around, I visited a lot of places and some places aren't the most positive, you know?
And so when I come back to home with all my friends and family, I mean, that's all I want to do.
You know, I try not to have room in my heart for the negative stuff.
But at the same time, you know, if it's like a big chain reaching out, I feel like I can be a little bit more loud and kind of upfront with that compared to like a local place ran by my neighbor.
So if it's being ran by somebody local in Peoria, I mean I just love to support this city and my hometown.
So ultimately I just try to remain positive for that.
I try to remember that when I'm doing these videos.
- That's what I do like.
I mean, I'm not knocking Olive Garden, but you're not going to Olive Garden.
I mean, you're going to, you know, a place like kind of we all have seen, maybe driven by, maybe not have stopped, but always wondered about, and now we know.
'Cause there's something about at least knowing the knowledge of going.
Nobody wants to go in a restaurant, I don't know what to order.
I don't feel comfortable.
You kind of bridge that gap.
- Yeah, and that's something I think, as corny as it sounds, maybe I wish I had when I was like a teen trying to find out where to eat with my friends, you know, or when I went on a date, which I've been on a couple of those, you know, like one or two maybe.
- Are you a single guy?
- Yeah, yeah.
No, I'm single.
But yeah, I tried to be that person.
- Do you put your number under there?
For all the honeys.
- Yeah, yeah.
- A lot of honeys like those critics.
- You're right.
Well, my BlackBerry's currently outta minutes, but once I get more minutes on the phone, I'll put my number up there for everybody.
But yeah, no, I wanted to be that guy, you know, 'cause when I was a teen, when I tried to find a place to go, I mean, back then all you really had was, you know, like Google reviews.
No one was posting YouTube videos of local reviews or like a local place down here.
Like no one's gonna be doing that.
So I didn't go to those places.
And now you're right.
I'm trying to bridge that gap where I'm trying to, I mean, throw it in people's face on the most popular app in the world.
You know, TikTok, Instagram, YouTube.
- [Rob] Is it?
- It has to be, maybe.
I know at one point- - Facebook's a monster, so I don't know.
It doesn't matter.
Do you ever get feedback from a restaurant going, "Hey, take this down"?
- No, the closest thing I'd get to that is when I was in Chicago.
And in Chicago, just because it's such a populated market, there were so many more brand opportunities reaching out almost to where it was like almost overbooked.
You're just, you're getting reached out constantly.
Like, "Hey, we're gonna pay you this if you post this, this, this and say this, this, this."
That's when, you know, it took the fun out of it for me too, is 'cause that's when it felt like I was going back to acting, which I love acting, but again, it's like a puzzle piece.
This is what you feel like as an actor, but as a content creator, you feel like the person just moving around all the pieces.
You know, so the closest I got to that was maybe when I did a brand deal and I, you know, sent it to 'em to review and they're like, "Oh, you can't wear that shirt."
You know, "You can't wear it.
It has a bad word on it," or something.
Or, "Oh, we don't like that music."
- [Rob] What was it?
- Oh, I don't even remember.
I think it was actually a poster in the background.
- Did it start with an F?
- No, no.
I think it was a poster in the background of like a heavy metal band.
They didn't like that.
- With an S?
- Yeah.
- Did it start with an S?
- The band did.
- Oh, okay.
So we're already off the bad word.
Alright, focus.
Alright.
(both laughing) So when you go to these restaurants, I mean, literally they don't know who you are.
I mean, some of 'em probably do, right?
- Nowadays it is getting to that point.
Most recently because of just, I'd say the last month I've had the most success and I'm super grateful for it.
But finally it's like I'm starting to kind of go in and they, I get confronted a lot more now by like either the waiters, waitresses, or even the people behind the counter.
- [Rob] "Well, we'll get you something special."
- Yeah, yeah.
- Do you have to pay?
- Yeah.
I mean, 99% of the time.
I don't think, maybe one or two.
I can only remember one, only one Peoria video has been comped.
Otherwise I go in there and I spend 75 bucks and then hopefully make it back on the internet.
Which most of the time I don't, you know, there's a lot of times I don't.
A lot of times I do, but there's a lot of times I go in there, spend 80 bucks on food.
I might make $30 on the video.
But it's still nice, you know.
- On TikTok?
- Yeah.
It's kind of, you have to, there's so many rules now.
You have to make it over a minute, which I normally do.
No copyrighted music.
I used to snag people in with some, you know, fun music that's kind of obscure.
And then also, I mean, I think it uses AI to detect every word you say.
And if you're saying some curse words or something, it's not gonna, you know, throw it out there.
And people have to watch the whole video.
A minute on TikTok is like an hour-long movie.
- It is tough because people just like to, because 90% of it is crap.
- Yeah, and people scroll within 10 seconds.
So I have to get them to watch the full 60 seconds to really monetize it.
And that's super hard to do.
But that's what moms and dads are for.
- I would suggest partial nudity.
Take the shirt off, you know?
- I think I'd get banned.
They wouldn't like that on there.
I don't know, I've been hitting some curls.
Hit a little bit more.
(Rob Laughing) - God, I don't wanna ask you these questions, but in my mind I just want it because I know this is what you get all the time.
What's the hidden gem in Peoria?
- Yeah, okay.
Hidden, that's so tough, you know, because I feel like the hidden gems I know about hopefully have gotten a lot of eyes on 'em now.
You know, when I think of "Hidden Gem" in Peoria, again, the place that comes to mind, they're just not so hidden.
If you haven't tried Chef Musa in Peoria, which I know it's not hidden because I saw an article where it was ranked like the number one best food in Peoria.
Have you heard of it?
- [Rob] No, I've not, I have not heard of it.
- Okay.
A lot of my friends haven't either, which I was like, "Oh, I thought everyone knew about Chef Musa."
That place is amazing.
You know, I still love Slow Hand in Peoria Heights.
It's one of my favorite places to go.
Not only because of the food, but because they bring the community together with events too.
Concerts, trivia.
And that's why I love local places.
Just bringing the local people together.
And Steak and Fries by Bradley University is always my favorite.
- Never been there.
- It's had like the same five employees since I was like 12 just going there.
They're strictly business.
They're nice.
They're gonna get you good food.
And those are my top three.
I don't know if those are hidden gems, but you know, maybe some hidden gems will be posted this week, you know?
- Oh, yeah.
Who knows?
- Stay tuned.
And then you look in the comments.
I mean, Rome said Brienzo's.
You probably, I'm sure you've been there.
Right?
- Yeah.
- Because that's right in your backyard.
- Yep, and that's right next to Slow Hand too.
Brienzo's is super good.
- Is that how you say it?
- I think it's Brienzo's.
I hope so.
I posted five videos calling it that.
- Oh, you've been there five times or done five videos?
- Five like platforms.
You know, like Facebook, YouTube.
I think it's Brienzo's, and yeah, it's really good.
Like local places like that I love.
- And some people apparently don't have a favorite restaurant.
How could you not have a favorite restaurant or at least a top whatever.
- We gotta work on that.
- You see what I gotta deal with here?
- Yeah, you gotta look at the page.
I got your back.
Just scroll for a while.
You'll find something good hopefully.
- Well, and you live in the Heights then?
- I just moved to Peoria, but yeah, I was born and raised in the Heights.
- [Rob] Oh, you're not saying.
What's your exact address?
- It is, yeah.
Yeah, I don't know actually.
I just moved there.
- Right by your number.
Bottom of the screen.
- I was trying to think of a joke, but it occurred to me, I don't even know my address.
I just moved there.
But yeah, in the Heights, Chicago, five years, moved back to the Heights, and now I'm in Peoria, but I bounce around.
I like going to Pekin for food, Chillicothe.
I mean, I'll go anywhere Central Illinois.
Or Illinois.
I'll go to New York tomorrow too, you know, I like to just show off local places everywhere, you know.
But really it's Peoria where I find the passion.
- Is this your full-time gig now?
- It was at one point in Chicago, just due to the availability of those brand deals.
And I was so close to, you know, the sets for acting and TV.
I could be on set almost every week, whether it's something very small or something really cool.
So I was doing that full time along with acting for a while, actually, probably less than six months or so.
But once reality hit, rent hit, didn't book a couple acting gigs, videos were, I'm seeing articles of TikTok's gonna be shut down next month.
- Oh, yeah, yeah.
- And I'm like, "Alright, lemme go apply.
I'm gonna go get a job or two."
So now, yeah, I have a couple different jobs now, and yeah, I'm just totally packed.
So I do my videos on the weekends and auditions at midnight or 1:00 AM.
- Well, you, the charisma that comes through, I'm sure you turn it on, but you can tell when somebody is just like, I don't know, fun to watch.
Just like talking to you here.
There's some people that are just engaging, like kind of when you start talking, the room looks towards you.
I mean, that's what you have.
- Oh, wow.
- But to, yeah, to put it over to video.
I don't know how to do it, but you've definitely figured it out.
- Oh, wow, thank you so much.
Yeah, no, I really appreciate that.
It's definitely a gut-wrenching thing to throw yourself on the internet because you're just kind of opening your arms for any type of comment, including the negative comments you kind of mentioned before.
- [Rob] Which is nice.
There aren't any on social media.
- Yeah, yeah.
None, there's none at all.
- Try talking about farming.
- Oh yeah, yeah.
True.
Yeah, I think I'll be honest though, all my negative comments, all of them were from the Chicago videos.
In Peoria, it's just so much different.
I get nothing but support, I think, 'cause they want to see these videos.
- Well, let me ask you this.
So you go to a restaurant, you like it, you post it, and then does it kind of bother you?
I don't know if it's even happened, but someone's like, "Oh, that place I've been there.
It's the worst place.
What you're talking about?"
When someone's badmouthing the restaurant and it's on your platform, does that ever bother you?
- It doesn't bother me.
I read all the comments.
- [Rob] Really?
- Yeah, I try.
I read all the comments and I see those often.
And if it's worded, you know, correct and polite, I'm like, "Oh, they're just, they're just doing what I'm doing."
But, you know, they're doing it on the keyboard, but they're just kind of reviewing it too, I guess.
So that's their opinion.
So I guess that's what's cool about my little community that I've built is people do discuss and kind of debate sometimes.
Like, "Oh no, it doesn't suck.
What'd you get?"
"Oh, I got this."
"Oh, well that's why.
Like, you should have watched the video.
You just gotta get this."
Those are the comments in my, you know, it's like little side movies.
I'm kind of watching down there, little comics.
But yeah, it's just debating and fun.
- Well, who knows, they maybe dated the waitress at one point.
She dumped 'em and so they're gonna bash a restaurant.
- That's why they have beef with Brienzo's, I guess.
That's why, you know?
- If that's how you say it.
(both laughing) There's a lot of people that would love to be you.
Right?
Because the social media, the content creators that is, you ask the kids nowadays, that's what they wanna do when they grow up.
So if you have a person comes up to you and is like, "Man, I want to do what you're doing," what advice do you give 'em?
- For social media?
Start in five seconds.
Like start now.
Like you can post now.
And actually your first couple videos, just like me, my first 200 YouTube videos got no views.
So your first couple videos are gonna be rough.
But as soon as you start and kind of break through that initial phase of, "Oh, I'm kind of worried to post myself and be vulnerable on the internet," it becomes easy and it becomes fun.
So I think for social media in particular, you just have to start, you know, be open and realize you're gonna get criticism.
You're gonna get those bad comments.
But if anything, any comment brings views.
But yeah, I'd say just start tomorrow.
Just find what you're passionate about and put it on the internet.
And maybe, I mean, there's a niche for everything.
Someone will watch everything.
- Yeah, and again, where can people find you on the old social?
- Yeah, you can find me.
Everything should be, I'm Seth Boyer.
TikTok, Instagram, Facebook's just Seth Boyer.
YouTube, I'm Seth Boyer.
And yeah, that's where you'll find me and that's where I'm posting every week.
I'm doing a little bit of everything on there.
You know, not only the food reviews, but doing daily vlogs, skateboarding, all types of stuff.
So... - Well, Seth, you know, my wife and I, on the XM show, we interview someone every day, a weekly podcast, for the past 500 weeks, we have interviewed content creators, and honestly, we kind of gotten away from it because our audience, I don't know, they're more interested in the story of the average person.
But I saw your TikTok and I practically begged you to come on here 'cause there's something very authentic about you.
You can tell it's just, I don't know, when you're doing it, either you're a great actor or you're just really enjoying what you're doing, and that is fun to watch and that's why people are such a fan of yours.
So congrats on such success that you're doing.
- Thank you so much.
- I don't have a trophy for you.
- Well, nothing can top this.
- That is pretty hard to top.
- Yeah.
- So no, thank you very much.
'Cause I know you are busy and I know you are getting pulled in a thousand different directions because of the success that you had.
But thank you for coming on the show.
Really, really appreciate it.
- Oh, thank you so much.
I really appreciate it as well.
- Seth Boyer.
Everybody else, catch you next time.
(energetic music) Great job, man.
Fantastic.
- Thank you so much.
