Hey, everyone, welcome to

Hey everyone, welcome to Radio Cherrybaum, the number one female-focused food podcast in the universe.

I'm your host, Carrie Diamond.

I'm recording this from my apartment in Brooklyn, and the Cherry Bomb team is all remote, too.

We're making it work and checking in with one another, while trying to stay safe.

And to all our friends in the food community, whether you're working in a wine shop,

a grocery store, a bakery, food delivery, food production, or farming, I think I can speak

for the entire bomb squad and saying how much we appreciate the vital work you're doing.

For today's show, we're celebrating our friends in the chef community, so we're airing a panel

from Jubilee Seattle with Chef Rachel Yang,

chef Renee Erickson, and Chef McKinney Howell. All three women are pillars in the restaurant community,

and it was amazing to hear what they had to say. Chef Angie Marr of the Beatrice Inn in New York City,

who happens to be a Seattle native, moderated the panel. Let's thank our sponsors and welcome our newest sponsor,

Acole Ducasse. For more than 20 years, Acolde has been teaching French culinary and pastry arts

to enthusiasts, students, career changers, and ambitious professionals from all over the world.

The school was established by the legendary chef, Alain Duques, and if one thing is for sure,

at École Duques, you can master more than cooking.

And personally, I'm very excited to be working with the Duques team.

I happen to love Alain Duques's restaurants and was very lucky to visit many of them in Paris

when I worked for a Lankholm. Welcome to the Bomb Squad, Chef. Bienvenu. Also, we'd like to thank

the wines of Rioja and Smithfield Culinary for supporting the show. We'll be hearing more from them
