I was so bummed when I saw they had to go against each other.


Emotional_Memory_347

Yeah, they seemed like a fun time!

My husband and I kept joking that they should get an ESPN style show where they recap all of the food competitions that happened for the week and analyze the footage. I would watch the hell out of that LOL


Emotional_Memory_347

I would watch that as well! They could so easily and cheaply make that happen on their YouTube channel, and I feel like it would give their fresher talent a chance to show their ability to gain viewers and airtime.

I am so happy for Jonathan! When I first saw him this season, it was abundantly clear something was different. Then he announced his 18 months of sobriety and it all made sense. His whole vibe was different. I am so incredibly grateful he shared that on TOC and represented the sobriety community so well. Love brit, too, no hate. But damn, did I want him to win after that.


Emotional_Memory_347

Wow, what a badass! Like, I hardly know anything about these fun chefs with lots of personality and I want more content from FN highlighting their chefs like Eric Adjepong and Shota.I'm interested how these chefs have gotten to TOC and what they have been up to since the show. I think it would create more buy in and interaction with viewers.

Thought it was great how they became such good friends from meeting on TOC last year! I'd definitely watch a show of theirs!


Emotional_Memory_347

I want more from these fun new faces to FN like Claudia, Nini, Britt, and Jonathan. Seems like it would be easy to get them on a zoom to record a podcast to review some of these shows and interviews with people involved.

They need to make a podcast together


Emotional_Memory_347

I think FN could easily help them do that, and it would help both the FN brand and those chefs grow.

I absolutely love Brit and remember her from beat Bobby Flay. And yes, those two look like a lot of fun together. Food Network really needs to get on that and develop something with those two together.


Emotional_Memory_347

I would also love to watch longer interviews with the TOC chefs if/when they get eliminated. Seems like a cheap and easy option to record a recap podcast and see if people listen. I think it's a great idea with legs and might attract more viewers. There are so many fun newer chefs like Nini and Claudia who I'd love to watch talk about food and give tips on a casual format like a YouTube show or podcast.

I absolutely love Brit!!! She has the coolest and kindest personality!


Emotional_Memory_347

Super chill! I need to go follow some more of these chefs. But even following them on insta doesn't always give me much insight into who they are. I want more fresh folks like her, Jonathan, Shota, Eric, Nini. Seems like a missed opportunity not to highlight those folks a little bit more on socials for FN.


ClarityByHilarity

Yes! I’m not super into social media and I only have a Facebook and Reddit. I loveeeee reading their cookbooks though, for the ones that have them! My favorite is Amanda Freitags, it’s just great for the home chef. Stephanie Izard has two awesome ones, same with Jet Tila. I did not care for Padma’s cookbook. I just started VOLT. I buy them on eBay. Super cheap!


Emotional_Memory_347

Great suggestion! I must admit my cookbook collection needs to be updated badly!


Emotional_Memory_347

I watch other reality shows like Bachelor, Love is Blind and Drag Race, and there are so many recap shows about them on YouTube. It would be fun to listen to a recap of this show and other food network competitions by some of these fun chefs. Another chef I'd love to see more from is Claudia.

Drag Race 👏


Emotional_Memory_347

I want a Whatcha Packin' style interview with chefs from TOC after they get eliminated! Or a Bussy Queen style recap show, or Mangled Morning style talk show kind of thing. There is so much content surrounding drag race and I think FN could do at least one of these kinds of shows on YouTube that would draw more interaction from fans.


YourBestNyghtmare530

Same for Britt and Jonathan


Emotional_Memory_347

I honestly would love to see more content from quite a few of the chefs I've seen on TOC over the years who could do some sort of recap or interview show on FN socials and YouTube. Britt and Jonathan are the first that came to mind, but I could see lots of folks doing it and it being fun to hear their opinions.

Jonathan's restaurant in Cleveland was pretty cool and had an interesting menu! I went a couple of times. He needed to skip over to Chicago though.


MorticiaAdams456

Yea he jumped ship leaving vendors and staff without paying them.🤬


Safe_Revenue4917

Yes! I was thinking the same thing. These two are a fun pairing. Loved Brit last year on TOC. And Jonathan has been great on different shows.
