Food TV On The Radio

On this week's show, we look at the role food television plays in the lives of several chefs here in New Orleans.

We begin with one of the youngest stars of food TV, Kaj Hecht, the recent winner of Chopped Junior. To get an understanding of how the 10-year-old New Orleans local came to be a contestant on the program, we invited Kaj and his father Michael into our studio.
