This week on Series of Fortunate Events, MeMe Cherry sits down with Craig, the heart and hustle behind June’s Pizza in West Oakland — a pizzeria that’s not just about incredible pies, but about resilience, community, and creativity.
Craig shares the real story behind June’s — from the first ever pizza order, to the emotional day they were forced to shut down due to permitting challenges, to the powerful comeback that made June’s one of the East Bay’s most beloved food spots. We talk about building a brand through social media authenticity, why sometimes being a pirate is the only way forward, and what resilience truly looks like in small business.
