Invite Rocco Into Your House!

Any Rocco DiSpirito fans in the house?

Any Rocco DiSpirito fans in the house? If you answered yes to that question then you'll be excited to hear that Rocco is returning to television, and this time he might just cook for you. In his new show on A&E — no date set yet — called Rocco to the Rescue!, he will come to your house and teach you how to cook a special meal for a special occasion. The premise sounds a bit like Food Network's Rescue Chef — or like Ted Allen's role in Queer Eye — only with DiSpirito at the helm.

Now for the part that fans will really be excited about. If you live in the New York City area, you can try and get Rocco to come to your house. The casting call says:

A&E is looking for people in and around the New York City area who need Rocco’s help. To apply for the show, email CookWithRocco@gmail.com with your name, age, phone number, a recent photo, and the reason you need to cook with Rocco. You can also call our casting hotline: 818-752-5559. Everyone loves to share the important moments in life over food, and Rocco knows exactly how to make those moments memorable!

So are you going to invite Rocco into your kitchen?

It's a Gangsta's Paradise — Learn How to Cook With Coolio

There's been a lot of interesting cooking segments on the internet.

There's been a lot of interesting cooking segments on the internet. First there was Sam Mason's Dinner With the Band, and then there was the super surreal Christopher Walken cooking show. Now, straight from a gangsta's paradise, we have the self-proclaimed "Ghetto Gourmet" Coolio. That's right Coolio. He's here to tell you that if it looks good, tastes good, and smells good, then it is good!

In the first episode of Coolio's Cafe — language not suitable for work or any little ones — Coolio and his crew teach you how to, "make a salad that will get their panties right off." I think it might have something to do with the "special seasonings," although I've never met anyone who doesn't love a Caprese salad. So what are you waiting for? As Coolio says, it's time to cook bee-otch!

Would You Watch Christopher Walken's Cooking Show?

My gal Molly let me in on one of the weirdest things I've seen in a while.

My gal Molly let me in on one of the weirdest things I've seen in a while. Apparently, cult favorite Christopher Walken is looking to host his own cooking show - so much so that he's recorded his own video and put it on the internet. In the amateur video entitled "Man Makes Chickens with Pears," Walken comes across more like someone's grandpa, than someone who would host a cooking show. I'm not sure what to make of the whole thing. I think he's fantastic, but this is a little peculiar. What do you think? Give it a watch and then tell me, would you watch Christopher Walken's cooking show?
