About Eating History
Every bite has a backstory. Welcome to Eating History, the podcast that serves up the wild, scandalous, and mouth-watering tales behind the foods that changed the world. Join Michelin-starred chef and Top Chef runner-up Adrienne Cheatham and her husband, history buff Stephen Bailey, as they pair elite culinary expertise with epic historical deep-dives. For Season 2, we’re biting into the most debated meal on earth: The Sandwich. Discover how a simple culinary category traveled the globe, adapted to every culture it encountered, and conquered the American lunch break. Along the way, you’ll cross paths with gambling aristocrats, exiled convicts, factory workers, and immigrant street vendors—the fascinating people who turned food into history. Grab a seat at the table. New episodes drop every Wednesday!
