Summary

On this week’s Radio Cherry Bombe, host Kerry Diamond talks with Kristen Beddard, author of Bonjour Kale. When Kristen moved to Paris with her husband, she couldn’t find kale or “chou kale” for sale anywhere. Bonjour Kale is a memoir of how Kristen began “The Kale Project” to bring her beloved vegetable back to the country of croissants and cheese. Also on the show, our British #BombeSquad correspondent, Hester Cant, speaks to one of the stars of The Great British Bake Off, Martha Collison. Martha was the youngest ever contestant at age 17 and made it all the way to the quarter finals. Hester talks to her about success since the show, her new book, and using baking to empower women around the world.

0:23.6	Whole World's Chicken, Breaking, Baby, and we Hi, everybody, Hello, Hi, everybody,
0:24.6	Welcome to Radio Cherrybaum.
0:27.6	I'm Carrie Diamond,
0:31.6	Editorial Director of Cherry Bomb, the indie magazine about women and food.
0:36.6	We have a very international show in store for everybody
0:40.4	today. You'll find out why soon enough. I just flew in on a red eye, not just. I landed at JFK,
0:48.0	just in time for rush hour, just in time for an hour and a half taxi ride back from the airport.
0:52.4	And I got home and I was like, what is more important
0:55.3	to me right now? 45 minutes of sleep or a shower? And sleep one. So I don't know, I don't know that I'm
1:05.0	at the top of my game today, but I'm going to do my best. So bear with me, everybody. First, let's thank our sponsor, La Cordon
1:12.2	Blue, the legendary culinary school with locations around the globe. We've got a fantastic sweepstakes
1:17.9	going on with La Cordon Blue. You could win culinary classes in Paris, London. Those two cities are
1:23.9	clues to our next two guests, or Ottawa, plus airfare, hotel, and a little
1:29.2	spending money. Visit cherrybom.com to enter. So our first guest is Kristen Bedard, the founder
1:37.2	of the Kale Project, an ambitious and somewhat quixotic attempt to reintroduce Kale to Paris.
1:43.9	Kristen published a book called
1:45.2	Bonjour Cale last year that details her veggie adventure. The New York Times has called her the
1:51.5	Joan of Arc of Cale. And this, oh, and they've also called her a crusader for crucifers.
1:58.9	And she's with us today. We are very happy to welcome you to Radio Cherrybaum.
