I have been following the @nobread Instagram account for a while, but it wasn't until recently that I began using the website as a resource for researching gluten-free restaurants. Nicole Cogan is the founder, and my 98th podcast guest! We discuss moving from NYC to LA, her history with gluten intolerance and sensitivity, body image issues, dealing with trolls, traveling and living a life of balance while staying wheat/soy/dairy free. I'm actually going to take a little break from podcasting after the 100th episode (I already have an INCREDIBLE guest lined up). We're getting close! Keep in touch via Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook @mslynnchen. xo Lynn

Episode 6 of The Actor's Diet Podcast comes live from the set of "Sutures" - my latest movie, with my co-star Tzi Ma.  We talk about eating on film, the best catering, and Chinese food.  Plus - a giveaway for Disneyland! Keep in touch via Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook @mslynnchen. xo Lynn

An interview with Phil Yu, aka "Angry Asian Man" about culture and food. Then I stop by Short Cake Bakery to chat with one of Zagat's "30 Under 30" recipients, pastry chef Hourie Sahakian. Keep in touch via Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook @mslynnchen. xo Lynn

Talking Ketchup Chips and the benefits of a mostly vegan diet with actress, producer, and "Ms. In the Biz Founder" Helenna Santos-Levy.  I also answer a question about eating disorders, interview a man who puts crickets in food, and announce a casting for The Food Network. Keep in touch via Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook @mslynnchen. xo Lynn

Korean food, softball, and Martha Stewart with Jamie Chung (The Hangover, Sucker Punch).  My mother-in-law Wendy Forman also reviews Yonanas. Keep in touch via Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook @mslynnchen. xo Lynn

I talk eating out as children and adults with my longtime friend, actor and writer Eboni Booth.  I also answer a listener's question about my favorite podcasts. Keep in touch via Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook @mslynnchen. xo Lynn

In the premiere episode, I interview the host of The Mental Illness Happy Hour, Paul Gilmartin, about Indian Food, Pizza, and Depression.  My friend Sam also gives a bite-by-bite review of SuperPretzel Pretzel Dogs. Keep in touch via Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook @mslynnchen. xo Lynn

Bruce Kalman and I are bonded for life - he is the only person I've met outside of high school from the same part of NJ as me. So of course when I found out my fellow Jersey boy is going to be competing on the next season of Top Chef, I had to have him on the podcast ASAP. We talk about Jersey food (duh), Jewish food, the malls of Paramus, how Bruce became a chef, and how to cut a mango.  Theme music is by Goh Nakamura.
