Summary

Hosted by Kerry Diamond Produced by Catherine Baker and Jenna Sadhu Edited by Jenna Sadhu Music by Tralala, “All Fired Up” Who is behind Allez Celine, the Instagram meme account known for skewering chef bros, wealthy restaurant owners, and badly behaved customers while trafficking hilariously in the stereotypes that surround the hospitality world? It’s Ivy Knight, the writer and filmmaker who is also a fierce champion of the hardworking back-of-house underdog. Ivy joins host Kerry Diamond to talk about her cult meme account; why she loves Celine Dion and Anthony Bourdain, but hates brunch, ramps, and the patriarchy; and why she still believes in restaurants. Content note: this episode includes strong language and topics some may find upsetting. Radio Cherry Bombe is a production of The Cherry Bombe Podcast Network.
