    Nice entertainer. Good spokesman...

    Sucked at food reviews.

    I will elaborate later.

    Not a cooking show
    Mainly travel with food as the common trait

    Yeah, it's pretty clear she's a little messed up. Even if she's transferring what happened to her onto someone else (abuse begets abuse), and I do say if, it doesn't excuse her behavior in the least, and of course makes her a gigantic hypocrite.

    The whole thing is sad and sordid.

    Have you read his book Kitchen Confidential? I feel the same way about Bourdain. I read his book after his death and it was great. Also check out his series The Layover. It ran 1 or 2 seasons and was on Netflix for a while but it is gone now. I am sure you could stream it somewhere.

    Yeah, it’s entertaining and not about cooking really. You should definitely check out the episode he did in Houston.

    It didn't work. Go ahead and take away some of my likes. Thumbs down. Boo!

    I had two reactions to this and it involved the words "oh my"...one reaction to hearing about the incident and another reaction when he got paid off to keep quiet. This has me questioning how much of a victim he actually was. Obviously, he participated. Then, he cried wolf. You're telling me he couldn't get away? It feels like a money grab.

    To me it looks like a money grab, did they have sex, sure but to then come after her for money is a joke. Glad AB stuck up for her and if he paid him off so be it. I just hope that wasn't part of the reason he committed suicide.

    No I haven't read his book. I've never seen The Layover either. Thanks for the recommendations, will look into.

    The problem is . .. . the . . ."looks like a money grab" thing is what keeps the Harvey Weinsteins safe
    because that is often said about these "starlets" that he can work into his hotel room
