INTERVIEW ON THE PRICE OF BUSINESS SHOW, MEDIA PARTNER OF THIS SITE.

Recently Kevin Price, Host of the nationally syndicated Price of Business Show, interviewed Laurie Woolever.

On a recent Price of Business show, Host Kevin Price visited with Laurie Woolever, who was an official collaborator and biographer of Anthony Bourdain.  In this far reaching interview, Woolever discusses:
*  Why Bourdain was different than any other food or travel host
*  Compares Bourdain with other hosts that are in media today
*  The unique and essentially holistic approach to Bourdain’s work that makes him difficult to pigeonhole.  He is not just a cook, food critic, or traveler, but is so much more.
*  Also, Woolever discusses her favorite travel and food host in the wake of Bourdain’s passing. Hint, start at 15:20 at the Soundcloud audio of the interview below.
