Chef Andrew Zimmern Finds More Freedom in New YouTube Series
Chef Andrew Zimmern is back with the second season of "The Navigator's Table." The original YouTube series follows special guests through culinary adventures across the globe. The series is produced in partnership with Renaissance Hotels, a part of Marriott International.
Zimmern is known for his work on the Travel Channel series "Bizarre Foods." He says the YouTube series allows him to do what his previous shows haven't: test new content. Special guests this season include Masaharu Morimoto, Adam Richman, and Christian Siriano.
Each episode is defined by the city it highlights, exploring with locals, and ultimately cooking up one dish in each location. Zimmern says this is the ultimate travel experience. The series debuted on October 17th, 2017.

After scrutiny over the negative impact on the mental health of children, social media apps have begun adding stricter limitations to parental controls. Jim Steyer, CEO of Common Sense Media, a nonprofit organization focusing on recommendations for entertainment platforms, joined Cheddar News to talk about the changes, why they might not be enough, and what parents can do to help. "It's almost that the companies — whether they're Snapchat, Instagram, YouTube, or whatever — have to start the process from the beginning of designing the product," he said.
