This seems very off brand for ATK, I assumed your base was more stay at home mom types but maybe I'm wrong.
This isn't my cup of tea, but whatever, if you're expanding what you offer can you start doing more foreign foods like Asian, Caribbean, and Eastern European?
Defund PBS
I presume ATK is reading these. I think other presenters need to find a way to subtly but unequivocally address the shitstorm of angry mutinies these podcast ads always bring.
Not primarily to explain or to defend but to show solidarity – to remove the lingering doubt or presumption (depending who we are) that not everyone in ATK is on board with these messages. The longer it’s not addressed the more people will assume there must be divided opinion behind the scenes because the people who love you and hate these podcast ads will assume they are more like you than you (hopefully) are.
There comes a time when rolling your eyes in private at the absurdity in the comments isn’t really enough. Race, respect, dignity, empathy etc etc is relevant in all walks of life across all forums, formats and subjects and following such reactions deciding to explain how you all feel about it shouldn’t be something you demur from.
Love this! Checking out the podcast IMMEDIATELY.
This freaked me out for a second…my moms name is Karen Washington and I was like 😳?? 😆ok, back to the program! Lol!
THIS B.A. BACKLASH VIRTUE SIGNALLING CRAP HAS GOTTEN VERY OLD.
Garbage activism instead of what we come for, don't we get enough of this racism in daily news?
This is really bad 😣
Excuse me for a bit but we have an obligation to till the soil and by that we have a sense of connection to the will of God.
Was this channel high jacked? Please explain why this was posted. I just don’t get it.
I’m not offended by the content, I’m not offended at all, just confused. This was just so off the wall.
Respect your channel.
🎯💥✊🏾❣️
This sounds like it's going to be an amazing episode. Thrilled that ATK is part of this discussion and not sitting on the sidelines.
Maybe you should have had a black chef on the show after 20 seasons😫 this is more of a pbs podcast
"We were meant to grow food" Is that really the message you want to convey?
Frankly, I only watch this channel for the reviews, specifically Lisa's. The cooking and other segments are lacklustre compared to other channels.
Say what I don’t get that.
WOW you’d think cooking would be a safe space from having to think about skin color.
