Kristen Kish On Soft Power, Top Chef & The Julia Roberts Movie That Changed Everything
We’re kicking off Radio Cherry Bombe’s Power Miniseries with Kristen Kish, the host of Top Chef, chef/partner of Arlo Grey at The Line hotel in Austin, and author of the bestselling memoir Accidentally On Purpose. As Kristen explains it, she’s all about soft power—and using it to support her community, her loved ones, and herself.
Kristen joins host Kerry Diamond to talk about her rise from Midwestern kid to culinary superstar. They discuss how Kristen found her true calling at culinary school, what Julia Roberts’ movie Notting Hill had to do with her eventual coming out, and what she learned writing her memoir.
