Matt Pritchard: From Dirty Sanchez to Dirty Vegan

How did Matt Pritchard transform himself from hard partying 'wild man' to ultra fit vegan chef? What have been his biggest challenges? And what was the craziest stunt he ever pulled during his Dirty Sanchez days? Join Matt for an in-depth talk where we hear about his journey, wild stories from his past, and the benefits of turning his life around.

Today, Dirty Sanchez daredevil frontman Matthew Pritchard is an ultra-athlete, chef and a passionate vegan to boot. Yet 10 years ago no-one who knew his wild on-screen persona would have ever imagined this could be a reality. After all, this was the man famed for stapling his privates to a table, being dragged naked across sandpaper before dousing it with salt and vinegar, and urinating on Rocky IV star Dolph Lundgren while on a flight to Amsterdam - to name just a few such incidents.

So how did this extraordinary transformation come about? Join Matt in conversation as he explores how he arrived at his transformed lifestyle, where fuelling his body and celebrating fantastic food are his new addictions. There will be plenty of hair-raising stories from the years of Dirty Sanchez rock and roll excess along the way, and of course Matt still has his trademark anarchic edge, so who know where the conversation will go! This is definitely adult material - you have been warned. Especially the story of the one Dirty Sanchez stunt that nearly finished him!

If you are interested in trying plant-based cooking yourself, whether you plan to go the whole hog (see what we did there) or dip in using a flexitarian approach, Matt will also be signing copies of his bestselling cook book, which will be on sale on the night (cash only, £20).

Venue: Portland House, Cardiff

Doors: 7pm / Talk starts: 7.30pm.
