In a world where social media is teeming with influencers, only a select few rise above the noise to make a genuine, lasting impact. Alex P. Taylor is one such personality. Known for his infectious energy, creative flair, and a unique ability to turn everyday experiences into must-watch content, Alex has taken the media world by storm. As seen on Bravo’s Below Deck Season 11, HBO’s Last Week Tonight with John Oliver, and a regular guest on local Connecticut shows like Great Day Connecticut and Connecticut’s Morning Buzz, Alex has carved out a distinct space in the lifestyle and food world, earning him the title of the “Nacho King of Connecticut.”
A Media Personality Like No Other
Alex’s journey began not just with passion, but with persistence and an innovative approach to media. He became a household name across various platforms, including radio segments on iHeartMedia and 96.5 TIC FM’s Weekend Warm Up, and his presence on TV shows across NBC, Fox, and local stations. But it’s his creative ventures, including two successful podcasts—Realitypus and 7 Minutes in a Bar—that truly set him apart from others in the industry.
Realitypus is a deep dive into the world of reality TV, where Alex discusses everything from celebrity interviews to season recaps, peppered with his signature sense of humor and insight. 7 Minutes in a Bar offers a raw, real, and uplifting look into life’s lessons, all shared from some of the most creative and beautiful bars across the USA. These podcasts allow Alex’s audience to connect with him on a deeper, more personal level, while simultaneously exploring the dynamic worlds of reality TV and lifestyle culture.
The Nacho King of Connecticut
But perhaps the crown jewel in Alex’s growing media empire is his love for nachos. Nicknamed the “Nacho King of Connecticut,” Alex took a beloved comfort food and turned it into an event that has gripped the hearts (and stomachs) of his home state. His month-long November nacho showcases have become a beloved tradition, featuring his inventive takes on the dish. From the classics to wildly creative combinations, Alex’s nacho recipes are not only crowd-pleasers but also the centerpiece of his upcoming cookbook, Totally Nachrageous: Lessons in Life in Nachos.
This cookbook doesn’t just teach readers how to make mouth-watering nachos; it’s a testament to Alex’s life philosophy—finding joy, creativity, and passion in the everyday, whether it’s in the kitchen or on the screen. It’s this ethos that has catapulted Alex into winning the Best of Hartford 2024 award for First Place Social Media Influencer, a testament to the incredible bond he shares with his audience.
