Andrew Zimmern: Eat Everything, Fear Nothing

Andrew Zimmern joins People Jew Wanna Know to talk about the Jewish upbringing that shaped him, from his grandmother’s legendary roast chicken and pickled tongue, to Shabbat dinners that later inspired Family Dinner. He reflects on his most vivid Bizarre Foods moments, including being marched through a Rio favela with AK-47s under his chin. He also opens up about the spiritual lessons he found in sobriety and why “being the only” has guided his entire media career.Lear more about Andrew's incredible work at www.andrewzimmern.com and follow him on Instagram @chefaz Support our work: buymeacoffee.com/peoplejewwannaknowWhat We Discuss: 00:00 Intro & Episode Agenda05:41 How Margarita met Andrew's childhood best friend 8:16 Andrew's Jewish upbringing 12:08 "I want to be a NYC Jew" 13:07 "In the world of media & brands, it's better to be an only" 14:02 Andrew's staple Shabbat dish19:48 Visiting Kazakhstan27:19 Unsolved mysteries of Bizarre Foods - Rio & Mexico City34:57 How do we stay connected in a disconnected world? 37:40 Andrew's new book about seafood & obsession with service44:02 Closing Remarks & Guest Nomination
