“Everyone loves a good story!” says Julie Martin, social media manager and granddaughter to the founders of Martin’s Famous Potato Rolls and Bread. “People love to hear how my grandparents started baking in their small, one-car garage, and now, three generations later, we make the number one branded hamburger roll in America. And we get inspired by other people’s stories too! After listening to some of the stories from Season One, we just knew we wanted to be a part of the ‘Beyond the Plate’ story!”
The majority of the second season episodes will feature Kappy conducting interviews from the Loews Miami Beach Hotel, during the 2018 Food Network & Cooking Channel South Beach Wine & Food Festival. Taking place at the Festival’s host hotel, this setting made it ideal to line up top-named talent for the upcoming podcast season. The team recorded audio interviews and three Facebook Live segments with some of the most popular and famous chefs in the United States. Each chef will also have a separate “Just the Plate” episode where they highlight a delicious recipe.
“We are touched by the stories that are being shared through the interviews. These talented and motivated icons find success, and then they give back – or ‘pay it forward.’ They are changing the lives of people for the better and that just fits with our hearts,” Martin explains.
Kappy is VP of Culinary Operations for Rachael Ray, and the Co-Founder and Director of Rachael Ray’s cooking and kids charity, Yum-o! He is also the Founder and CEO of Culinary Advisors LLC, a strategic culinary advisory service. “The main reason we do this podcast is to share the inspiring stories that listeners may not be aware of. Most people know these chefs from the food in their restaurant or from a show on TV. We love being able to share these behind the scenes, and sometimes never heard before, stories as well as how these incredible humans give back to their community… beyond the plate.”
