In honor of The Bear Season 2 dropping on Hulu last week, we’re re-airing our 2022 interview with Jeremy Allen White, the actor who brilliantly portrays the hot-headed and heartbroken Chef Carmen “Carmy” Berzatto in the FX series. Don’t worry, there are no Season 2 spoilers! 

As you might know, the show follows Carmy, a rising star in the culinary world, as he returns to Chicago after the death of his brother in an attempt to save his family’s failing eatery. He’s supported and sometimes thwarted in his mission by family, his brother’s longtime crew, and an upstart sous chef named Sydney. Season 1 left all of us on the edge of our seats, and we can’t wait to see what happens in the new season.  

Jeremy joined host Kerry Diamond to talk about how he prepared for his role, the team behind the show, and his take on restaurants today. Don’t miss this episode, and be sure to catch the new season of The Bear on Hulu.
