Carl “Chef Flavor” Stanton is best known around the Marathon community as an assistant football coach and one of the town’s foremost flavor authorities as he oversees the culinary program at Marathon High School. But as we find this week with coach Sean McDonald, there’s much more to Stanton’s story than most know, including his time at T.C. Williams High School as the brother of a famous football player from “Remember the Titans.” The two discuss Stanton’s memories and athletic career at T.C. and the University of Maryland, being a chef, and traveling and working with some of the biggest Hair Metal bands of the ‘80s. Listeners will barely believe the places “Chef” has been and some of the people he calls friends – including a video gaming showdown with the artist formerly known as Prince. He also discusses how he arrived in the Florida Keys and became a football coach at Marathon.
