Engaging and interesting shows

Brent’s shows bring you vicariously all over the world and bring you into sometimes micro-regional cuisines that may be new to you. It’s a different takes on travel. Brent enjoys showcasing these off-the-beaten-path locations and the history of their cuisine. His guests are knowledgeable and interesting. Worth your time!

An Engaging Food and Travel Storyteller

For as long as I have known Brent, and that is a long while, he has had a passion for food and travel. What makes him different is his ability to articulate his experiences in an way that is engaging and informative. On top of that his guests are terrific. Individuals with local knowledge that you cannot get anywhere else. Great stuff!!
