[Old School Hound]

I don't watch any particular channels. I like to listen to music, mostly from the 80's and 90's. I also enjoy watching old games, most of are the full broadcast with the commercials included.

I'm much the same. I listen to a lot of music's from 60's, 70's, and 80's ,  watch old TV shows, game shows, and old school wrestling from the 70's and '80's. Also, some vintage sports stuff.

I love this cooking channel. Glenn is an amateur chef who lives in Toronto. His day job is producing food ads for TV and the web. My favorite shows are his Old Cookbook episodes on Sunday mornings. This guy's collection of old cookbooks dates back to the 1600s. The cookbooks are mostly from the U.S. and Canada but last week's show featured a pudding recipe from a 1759 French cookbook.

If you enjoy cooking and are interested in the history of cooking, I think that you will like this channel. Some shows feature cocktail recipes, sausage making, beer brewing, etc. Glenn's kitchen studio is extremely well equipped and I learn more about cooking and food watching his shows than any other place.

Those of you who enjoyed The Way We Spoke thread might enjoy the following channel. The woman who produces the channel lives in the mountains of western North Carolina but her videos brought back a lot of my memories of growing up in eastern Kentucky. Some of her videos deal with the dialects spoken in Appalachia, traditional cooking, etc. 

Celebrating Appalachia

Hoot, did you ever watch that old guy who used to be on PBS and elsewhere that had a cooking show and was always drinking wine? He cooked Cajun food and had the accent to go along with it. I think his name was Justin Wilson. He was pretty entertaining and his food always looked pretty appetizing.

I remember watching Justin Wilson's PBS show. I love Cajun food and you are right about Wilson having the accent to go with the food. Thinking about his strong accent reminded me about the Swamp People reality TV show where they display subtitles for alligator hunters speaking English with a Cajun accent. There are not many English speaking American sub-cultures that would tolerate having their dialect subtitled.

There are some Cajun restaurants in Lexington that were opened by a chef from Louisiana. He sold his Lexington restaurants and moved to Bloomington, Indiana and then to Indianapolis. When I lived near Indianapolis, one of his restaurants was within a mile of my home. That was great food at an unbelievably affordable price and the menu changed daily. I live in a area having great restaurants but there are few Cajun restaurants and I have found none as good or as affordable as the ones in Indiana.

LOL   As I was posting that, I was thinking exactly the same thing- how Justin's accent reminded me of those alligator hunters.
