Smashing Burgers and Building Community: Sitting Down with Stef Finley


Welcome back to another episode of Hey Elgin!! This week, Nick, Ben, and Tony sit down with a guy who arguably has his hands in more local projects than anyone else in town: Stef Finley.
As the owner of Elgin's own Smash Daddy Burgers, Stef is already famous for feeding the community, but his impact goes way beyond the grill. We dive into his extensive volunteer work with the local VFW, his relentless drive to always do good, and his massive, inspiring plans for making Elgin a stronger, more connected place for all of us. If there is a positive initiative happening in town, there's a very good chance Stef is involved behind the scenes.
But of course, this is the Hey Elgin!! studio. After we talk about burgers and community betterment, you know we have to hand the reins over to Boston Nick. We wrap up the episode with our signature detour into the weird, the wild, and the unexplained.
Grab a Smash Daddy burger, settle in, and get ready for a fantastic conversation with a guy who is truly making a difference in Elgin!
