Chewed UP

Clinton Kelly, Carla Hall, and Michael Symon spent years co-hosting The Chew on ABC before the network pulled the plug in 2018. Seven years later, the trio reunited for Chewed Up -- and it turns out their group text chain was entertaining enough to build an entire show around. Launched in October 2025, this is part cooking show, part lifestyle therapy session, and mostly three friends who genuinely enjoy each other's company riffing on whatever crosses their minds. New episodes land three times a week -- Monday, Wednesday, and Friday -- which is an ambitious schedule that keeps the content feeling spontaneous rather than over-produced. Clinton brings the fashion and entertaining expertise, Carla brings her signature warmth and Southern cooking sensibility, and Michael brings Iron Chef swagger along with Cleveland grit. They'll debate viral food trends one day, share comfort food recipes the next, and spend a Friday episode getting into surprisingly personal territory about relationships and self-improvement. The unscripted banter is the real draw. You can tell these three have been friends for over 15 years, and the chemistry that made The Chew work hasn't faded. The show is available on YouTube and all major podcast platforms. Episodes are conversational, typically running 30 to 50 minutes, and the vibe is more kitchen hangout than polished production. If you missed The Chew or just want a food podcast that doesn't take itself too seriously, this scratches that itch. The fan response since launch has been enthusiastic, with audiences grateful to have these three back together doing what they do best.
