  1. #217- Bennett Rea: Do Unsavory Politicians Make Unsavory Food? | Cookin' with Congress Host Dishes Jackson Huff 37:06

This week, I had the pleasure of chatting with Bennett Rea, the creative force behind the viral TikTok series “Cookin’ with Congress”. Bennett’s unique approach to cooking involves recreating quirky recipes from politicians. Whether you’re a food enthusiast or simply curious about the intersection of politics and cooking, this episode is filled with humor and intriguing stories. Here’s a look at what we discussed:

  • Bennett shared how he recreates unusual recipes from politicians
  • We talked about some of the bizarre dishes he’s made, including gelatin recipes and odd flavor combinations.
  • We debated which political party might have the better food and discussed the connection between a politician’s ethics and their cooking.
  • He talked about his series where he tries to eat like various politicians for a day
  • Bennett’s personal quest to try foods from different countries and cultures.

I am in admissions and advising by profession where I speak with students every day about their future and goals. I have spent a decade learning peoples life stories and what makes them tick. So, a few years ago I decided to take that passion for people and make a podcast. Through this I have been able to speak with a lot of amazing people. People like Bob Eubanks (The Newlywed Game), Daphne Maxwell Reid (Fresh Prince of Bel-Air), Maddie Musselman (2x Olympic Gold Medalist), Francois Clemmons (Mister Rogers' Neighborhood), and countless others.
