Hosted by Kerry DiamondProduced by Catherine Baker and Jenna SadhuEdited by Jenna SadhuMusic by Tralala, “All Fired Up”After a long hiatus from social media, Jerrelle Guy is back. The food stylist, photographer, and recipe developer behind the trailblazing book Black Girl Baking and the blog Chocolate for Basil, Jerrelle realized the relentless demands on culinary creatives were causing her to lose the joy she always found in the world of food. So she stepped away to rediscover what she loved in the first place. “I don’t like the grind culture,” she tells host Kerry DiamondJerrelle is now working on her second book, which covers the intersection of food, mental health, and healing, and she has a line of kitchen and housewares created in collaboration with Anthropologie. The collection, with its soothing colors, patterns, and textures, is inspired by Jerrelle’s great aunt and the act of cultivating spaces that allow ourselves to thrive. The collection is now in stores. Thank you to Käserei Champignon, makers of Cambozola cheese, for supporting this episode. Radio Cherry Bombe is a production of The Cherry Bombe Podcast Network.

Hosted by Kerry DiamondProduced by Catherine Baker and Jenna SadhuEdited by Jenna SadhuMusic by Tralala, “All Fired Up”Of all the things Omsom CEO Vanessa Pham expected to be dealing with earlier this month, the Silicon Valley Bank collapse was not one of them. As co-founders of the Asian flavors and sauces start-up, Vanessa and her sister Kim have successfully steered the mission-driven Omsom to national distribution with the likes of Whole Foods, partnered with influential chefs like Nicole Ponseca, and helped change the conversation around Asian-influenced consumer product goods and pantry staples. But Omsom was a customer of Silicon Valley Bank, which famously failed on March 10th, and Vanessa, Kim, and the rest of the team had to confront an immediate future with no capital. Omsom faced its rollercoaster of a week by leaning into their hallmark transparency, and their community rallied around them. Vanessa shares it all with host Kerry Diamond and also talks about how Omsom came to be.Subscribe to our newsletter and check out past episodes and transcripts here. For Jubilee tickets, click here. More on Vanessa: Instagram, Omsom, websiteRadio Cherry Bombe is a production of The Cherry Bombe Podcast Network.

Hosted by Kerry DiamondProduced by Catherine Baker and Jenna SadhuEdited by Jenna SadhuRecorded at CityVox StudiosMusic by Tralala, “All Fired Up”Chef Iliana Regan joins us to talk about her latest book, Fieldwork: A Forager’s Memoir, a moving story about her new life as proprietor, along with her wife Anna, of The Milkweed Inn, a getaway set on 150 remote acres of Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. The book is a follow-up to Iliana’s 2019 National Book Award long-listed memoir, Burn The Place, about her life as a chef. Fieldwork is a story about foraging—for fruits, vegetables, nuts and seeds during the different seasons in the forest—but it’s also about emotional foraging, and understanding the unseen ties that bond family, food, flora, and fauna. Iliana wants people who read the book to think about their connections to the people and things they love. Join Radio Cherry Bombe host Kerry Diamond, Boca Chef Maria Mazon, and other special guests at the Graduate Hotel Tucson Thursday, Feb. 23rd, for a special night of networking, talks, panel, and snacks and drinks.
