#42: From Childhood Bullying to National TV Shows [w/ Food Network's Brandi Milloy‪]‬ Foodbeast Katchup

    • Food

Brandi Milloy-Simon, host of Food Network's "Let's Eat," talks about transitioning from online media to TV, and not letting motherhood slow down her career. 
While having a child has caused her to adjust, it has not stopped her from getting the job done, i.e. bringing in the adorable 14-month-old Milly to join us on the podcast.
Though a bit of chaos ensued, with baby Milly even keeping our hosts on their toes and sparking an impromtu breastfeeding session, we still learned about Brandi's childhood struggles with bullying, consistently getting food recipes to go "viral," and the vigorous tasks that come with being a TV show host.  
You can catch Brandi on "Let's Eat!" on Food Network (airing Sundays at 9am/8c).
