Old page wikitext, before the edit (old_wikitext) | ''''Sam Zien''', known as '''Sam the Cooking Guy''', is a [[Canada|Canadian]]-born<ref>Amos, Joel D., The Life Of Zien," ''San Diego Jewish Journal''</ref> television cook (not a classically trained chef) and author, based in [[San Diego]], [[California]]. His show, ''Sam the Cooking Guy'', started on [[local television station]]s before moving to a [[News Corporation|Fox]] affiliate and thence to [[Discovery Channel|Discovery Health]] and [[Cox Communications]]. He has won multiple [[Emmy awards]], including one for an episode on [[Jewish cuisine]].<ref>Amos, "The Life Of Zien"</ref>
Zien initially decided to begin his television career doing travel shows, but reconsidered after the [[September 11, 2001 attacks|World Trade Center attack]]. In the decade following Zien has taken his television cooking show on the road, producing multiple shows across the world in places like [[Hong Kong]], [[Fiji]], [[New Zealand]] and [[Vancouver]].<ref>"About Sam the Cooking Guy"</ref>
==Appearances on the Today Show==
In July 2008, Zien made an appearance on the [[Today (NBC Program)|''Today'' Show]]. After being repeatedly interrupted by hosts [[Hoda Kotb]] and [[Kathy Lee Gifford|Kathie Lee Gifford]], Zien retorted by saying, "Jeez - can I talk? I watch this show everyday. Everybody has issues with a lot of chatter back here. Pay attention. One minute. ... Oh, that seemed to work." The incident stirred debate in the [[blogosphere]], and a video of the broadcast has been viewed more than 700,000 times on [[YouTube]]. Zien returned to the ''Today'' Show accompanied by an 'etiquette expert' who mediated as the two parties spoke about the incident.
On the February 1, 2010 episode of the [[Howard Stern show]] on [[Sirius XM]], [[Howard Stern]] went into a rant on Kathie Lee's tendency to talk over guests on her show and upon hearing a clip of Zien's appearance called Zien "my hero" and spent over ten minutes praising him. Zien called into the show the next day to discuss the incident and have a long conversation with Howard.
Zien has since been a regular ''Today'' guest, appearing over a dozen times with many of the different show hosts.
== The Sam Livecast ==
On May 23, 2011, Zien, along with his family and friends, broke new ground by creating the Internet's first live, high definition cooking show originating from his home kitchen. Described as "a cross between a radio talk show and a TV cooking show,<ref>What is The Sam Livecast?</ref>" the thrice weekly episodes provide the host with a forum to discuss both food-related and unrelated subject matter, oftentimes with a politically incorrect and irreverent bent. Using social media outlets, viewers and listeners are encouraged to contribute to the conversation. The program ran its initial fully live format for over 200 episodes when it made a minor format change, recording shows live-to-tape but still maintaining the basic conversational and cooking structure with little post production. The program is quickly approaching its 300th episode and continues to run thrice weekly, with new episodes available Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays.
== Cookbooks ==
Zien has written three cookbooks published by [[John Wiley & Sons]]. The first - "Just a Bunch of Recipes", the second - "Awesome Recipes and Kitchen Shortcuts", and the third - "Just Grill This!" All provide readers with simple and delicious recipes that can be prepared by even the most inexperienced cook.
