Description
Chef and rock star Cheetie Kumar embraces duality in every area of her life. Immigrant/American, musician/chef, partner/wife—Cheetie is all these and more. In one Raleigh, NC project, she and her husband, Paul Siler fuse music and food: they run a restaurant, Garland, a music venue, Kings, and a downstairs bar, Neptune’s. On this episode, Kumar shares the seeds of her passions—from singing alone as an immigrant kid in her Bronx living room to cooking as a way to connect with her family’s tragic past in post-partition Pakistan. For Kumar, life is about letting herself have it all by ignoring nothing.

Baker Bon Vivant: Allison Robicelli: Allison Robicelli is best known for the insanely decadent desserts that she developed with her husband Matt for their Brooklyn bakery, Robicelli's. Their cupcakes like the Nutella Lasagna became viral hits and their book, Robicelli's: A Love Story with Cupcakes was on a zillion best-seller lists. In the last year, though, the couple closed their shop, moved to Baltimore, and hit the pause button. Allison shares stories of near super-human resilience: thriving after the financial crisis squelched her business, tending to Matt through repeated hospital stays, finding an outlet for anguish and joy through writing. by Speaking Broadly
