POPULARITY
In real life Eddie Huang is a chef, a difrector, and an attorney just to name a few things. So as you'd imagine shortly after releasing his autobiography "Fresh Off the Boat: A Memoir", studios were jumping at the opportunity to create a show based on his life. The rights eventually landed in the hands of ABC and 20th Century Fox Television. The show depicts a Young Eddie moving from DC to Orlando with his family in the mid 90s. Constance Wu and Randall Park were the first two signed on followed by Hudson Yang taking on the role of a young Eddie Huang. Does this show have what it takes to get green-lit by the S1E1 guys or will they kill it before it can get to an episode 2. Tune in to our review of their pilot and found out! www.S1E1POD.com
This week we're joined by Eddie Huang, an author, chef, restaurateur, food personality, and producer. Eddie published his autobiography ‘Fresh Off the Boat: A Memoir' in 2013, which covers his childhood & adulthood and the struggles with identity he experienced growing up, which was later adapted into an ABC sitcom. Alongside his Lower Manhattan restaurant, BaoHaus, Eddie also hosted ‘Huang's World' on VICE, taking viewers on a hilarious journey exploring race, identity, multiculturalism and food. In this episode we talk to Eddie about his childhood in the US with young Taiwanese immigrant parents, learning to choose empathy and forgiveness, and (of course) lots of food chat.
