Seasoned will continue to air Thursdays, twice a month, and follow Doyon-Aitken and a team of producers and contributors who take listeners across the state to taste delicious dishes and meet the communities that are coming together around food. They鈥檒l dive into the pages of cookbooks asking authors to share the inspiration behind the recipes, and continue to shine a light on local people with interesting stories to tell about food.
"I鈥檓 excited to continue to lean into the local stories of food makers, restaurants, and farms," said Doyon-Aitken. "I love hearing from, and elevating the voices of community members involved in the food space."
As Senior Producer, Doyon-Aitken has been telling stories about food at
黑料吃瓜网 since 2015 and prior to that, she worked for seven years at Fine Cooking magazine where she translated the magazine for the web, helped develop interactive tools for home cooks, and wrote the magazine鈥檚 weekly newsletter.

鈥淚'm thrilled about this change for Seasoned. Robyn is an exceptional food journalist and has spent years creating great food content for our listeners and audiences,鈥� said Chief Content Officer, Tim Rasmussen. 鈥淗er opportunity to take the mic is overdue and well deserved, I can't wait to see what she cooks up as the Host of Seasoned.鈥�

Seasoned airs the first and third Thursday of every month at 2:00 p.m. and 11:00 p.m., as well as Sundays at 6:00 a.m., and is available anytime at ctpublic.org/seasoned or wherever you get your podcasts.
