Who's Reality Cooking
In this new podcast I’ll be bringing you interviews with reality cooking contestants and judges, and everyone in-between making the shows happen!
Each week you’ll hear from someone who worked and competed on your favorite cooking reality and cooking shows, and find out what it’s really like behind the scenes.
As the first podcast dedicated to cooking reality and competition shows, I know you’ll be excited to FINALLY hear from the contestants on what it’s really like to compete and star on these high pressure shows.
Learn how these shows have positively or negatively impacted careers, and even meet a few big stars who started out competing!
As a former cooking reality star, I know what it’s like to compete, and I can’t wait to introduce you to the friends I’ve met and dish the dirt on what happens when the cameras turn off and the microphones stay on.

This week I reunite with Parker Aylesworth (Producer/Director/Camera Operator/ Wrangler), who shares his experiences working behind the scenes on various reality cooking shows, including The Taste, Cupcake Wars, Food Network Star, and a slew of other cooking reality shows.
We discussed the challenges cooking show contestants face, the mental health aspects of reality TV, and the unique relationships formed in the industry.

In this engaging conversation, Parker shares his experiences in the culinary and entertainment industries, reflecting on memorable encounters, the evolution of his career, and the vibrant food scene in Kansas City.
He discusses the importance of friendships formed on set, offers advice for aspiring chefs and creatives, and emphasizes the need to support traditional culinary programming in the face of changing media landscapes.
