Welcome to Storyflo Daily Food. I'm Finn.
The launch the audio side of food media will be reacting to: per Eater, Andrew Rea — known as Babish — is joining the Vox Media Podcast Network with In the Booth with Babish, a new series in collaboration with Eater. Eater says the premiere drops Tuesday, May 26, with new episodes every other Tuesday, structured as a menu-shaped interview format with chefs and celebrities. The premiere guest is Peabody Award-winner Alton Brown. Stephanie Wu, Eater's editor-in-chief, frames the partnership as Eater leaning into restaurant-industry expertise paired with Rea's loyal cooking-video audience. The structural read: the food-creator-to-podcast transition is now standard, and Vox Media is using its podcast network as the long-form layer of its restaurant publication.
