This comment hit different

let's support BCU, the Babish Culinary Universe, more than we support BA! Sohla has her own channel there :) one she's actually happy about!

Feel that fam

@@maxsong2688 yes!!! babish has always had top tier content :) we love to see it

How do u know.. I make content btw❤️

Yup

Don't call me out...

Extremely factual

Got me. At this point the comments are more interesting than anything cooked.

exactly

Yeah, I agree. Now when I re watch my favourites, like the thanksgiving series or pizza series I’m constantly thinking about how things were whenever the camera was obviously off.

What happened?! I haven't followed BA since before the spring.

Googled it.... 😬

@Kyle Miller whatever floats ur boat kyle

Yeah, me too. I am not even angry, just disappointed.

I hope more join babish CU.

Nailed it--- this video lacks flavor. And no, we don't "know what you're saying," Chris.......

Food pun! But also yes, this is honestly sickening

Where the f is the remorse or empathy in his introductory remarks?

No one is pretending

Yep

@@savouringseasons7316 exactly

Exactly... the comments didn't disappoint!

That could not be more accurate

Seriously. Too many people jumping all over him staying there too. It's his life, he has to live it for him not everyone else.

100% agree. I truly believe that he loves his coworker. Chris doesn't own BA. He's just making a living people

@@fpoiana Get over yourself

Lol he was hiring for replacement lol

Get this comment to the top

no but him and other ppl in BA can easily leave and start their own company or even join other culinary ppl on youtube like sohla did with babish. No Chris, and Brad and others arent to blame for what BA did but they are to blame for staying whilst knowing what is going on, they are choosing their sides without trying other options

He's a youtube personality. Could've started his own show or joined another channel. He's implicitly supporting BA by staying on.

@@nightangel6401 I think you are underestimating how hard it is to start a company

@@nightangel6401 "easily start their own company" uhhh... that's extremely difficult and requires startup funds even under normal circumstances. starting some kind of new restauranting business in a pandemic is downright nuts

@@nightangel6401 'just start a company lol'

This comment SENT me

I never liked Chris, what's going on with Brad?

Exactly what do you expect him to say? I'm really curious. What would have satisfied you?

@@Walter-Anderson we expect him to acknowledge what he did wrong. What is it exactly that you want us to say to YOU to satisfy this apparent need to prove everyone else wrong with your rhetorical questions.

@@BasedBlackGirl_ Do you know what a rhetorical question is?

Probably needed the stability of a regular job. Plus im assuming he's got a good paying job given how long hes been on BA. You just have to have a different mindset esp when you've got a family to feed esp during a pandemic.

Clair didn't even like doing the show she was doing... I think this is a much needed career change for some of them.

Most of them didn't leave the company, just the videos, which didn't make sense to me. It was like a statement without much punch

their success would absolutely skyrocket!! it would be my favorite channel on here.

They should

Exactly! I'm also disappointed that Conde Nast made the POC hires talk around the changes instead of choosing a higher-up to directly address the long-standing issues.

exactly what I was thinking! I was impressed by how he took it on.

You are so absolutely right! Not sure what the marketing and public relations team was thinking but it still amazing how out of touch they are and still continue to be.

GAGAGAGAGAGA! I will now count to 3 and then I am still the unprettiest RU-vidr of all time. 1...2...3. GAGAGAGAGAGA!!! Btw I have TWO very HOT GIRLfriends who I show off in my v*deos. Thank you for your attention, dear anna

Exactly

Right? Now where's Brad? Lol

I did the same thing. 😲

I couldn’t believe any Bon Appetit vid was in my feed.

@@LJMcCarty they posted a video earlier. I think it's about new editors, but I didn't watch it. I just want Brad back.

Didn't watch the rest. Truth.

Yes, then I read that he said something about the 'hiatus' (cof cof) and I watched the beginning of the video, to see what he had to saw, which was not much.

You guys read comments in silence? I have to have the video playing at least

Don't call me out like this

also, not to hate on Chris, but wasnt the most popular person in the kitchen so it would be a lot harder to for him to leave compared to someone like claire who is probably getting tons of offers and tons of money to join another company

@Jaz P Yeah, she posted about it on Instagram a while ago

@Jaz P yeah :( she announced it on her instagram. She didn't say we're she's going or what she's doing but yeah it's official, she's gone

But you’re watching a BA video and thereby supporting the channel

No, you moron. BA isn't the problem. The company that owns them is.

But you’re watching a video on the BA channel, thereby supporting them

@@yungjoemighty879 Actually, im not, just watched the first 2 minutes cos i saw a comment that said he addressed the issue in a way. Im just lingering to see the comments.

@yungjoemighty unfortunately it's a double edged sword. Watching videos with Chris in them is supporting conde nast but by watching this video you are also supporting Chris who isn't the problem that is conde nast.

Yeah but many of the white superior staff played a huge role in the disparities happening at ba both in the test kitchen and on the videos including pay and overall treatment. Chris’s silence (and later brad’s) have spoken volumes about their priorities. As a former fan I’m so so disappointed in Chris’s lack of solidarity and active role in glossing over ba’s unfair treatment of bipoc employees.

@@laurengottlieb6354 I do have to agree with this tho, compared to the other cast members, they were relatively silent. Both have actually spoken out, Chris said more than Brad did (which was disappointing because it was lack-luster), not that it made it any better. I do, in a way, understand their reason for staying on video, they do have young children and video appearance is added income for both. Understanding their possible reasons for staying doesn't mean I'm not disappointed. I'm just pointing out that the ultimate culprit for the oppression at BA and Conde Nast is top management. They are the ones who can change the system and if they don't, nothing will happen. Let's just hope that despite this, Chris and everyone else continues to fight for change.

Yeah, no one else on the planet can temper chocolate.

@@fpoiana I mean Brad was test kitchen manager, and gabby was after him. I'm pretty sure it's just a title.

Nicole A. D. Def not a boss but he has quite a bit of structural power too, given he’s a test kitchen director right? Most of the comments I see are fully supporting him, saying he has kids etc... which is true but I feel we’re absolving him of all responsibility (even if it’s not all him, obviously). Clearly CN and BA are at fault here but him having a family shouldn’t absolve him either, which is my point. I’m just trying to balance them since so many actors are involved, even if under the surface.

what did he to to Gaby? Gaby is sacret!

Gaby is staying as test kitchen manager but she won’t be appearing in videos. It seemed to me that she was completely out of all the drama, but was forced into a negotiation to appear on videos that she didn’t take to avoid issues. When she announced that on Instagram, I understood that the way Sohla did things might have not been fair to some cast members that had nothing to do with this payments issues.

what did he do to Gaby? no one better mess with Gaby.....!!!!

@@lauramipe2955 Gaby could have chosen to stay. All the white men & white adjacent men stayed.

*grabs popcorn*

it’s gonna be a fun ride

I can guess what it’s going to look like based on the comments of the last video

First thing I did when I clicked onto the video was come to the comments lmao

It’s probably the worst for the first video. It’s hard to hate Chris, but I do feel peeved.

And Chris Morocco [the director of the Test Kitchen] directly told me he didn’t like how quickly I moved up, so he wanted to make sure this person would never be allowed to develop recipes.” As she puts it, management didn’t want another “Sohla problem.”

@@SyafiqahSyafiqa quickly moved up?? she was the most uncharismatic and was getting the least amounts of views for the channel. she's just a jealous drama queen with an R-card in her pocket.

Well actually Chris and Brad have kids and stayed. Carla has a husband who, when looking at their house and keeping in mind, that they live in NY, makes decend money himself. All other members that left have no kids. If you have kids and leave your Job without having smth lined up that is just irresponsible.

@@tmrttrn lol she just got a show on Babish's channel and she's great and entertaining. She was finally given an opportunity to show her talent and she's great.

@@SyafiqahSyafiqa lol edgy enough? she was legitimately underpaid and a lot of people were asking for her to have her own show.

but we should not make it seems like he doesn't have a single ounce of responsibility in all of this..

Yes he's part of the problem

He’s a rich white guy who got paid far more than his colleagues because of that. He very definitely is part of the problem.

@@Zveebo he's a man with 2 kids for god sakes. Wtf do you want him to do?

@@carlieamado6153 Sounds like he is part of the solution since he stuck around trying to fix stuff instead of just leaving and everything just staying the same.

@@pitaa-breaddd Conde Nast, the problem was with the company that owns Bon Appetit. Well still is, since they won't do the right thing but will throw tons of money the wrong way.

@@QveenVirgo are we talking about the same chris

NEED

I agree. That was a lot of fun

I'm not optimistic. A lot of the creative force behind both the ideas and styles of the videos many of us liked are gone now, and the creative momentum they had earlier in the year is mostly gone now. Priya, Sohla, Rick (and possibly some others) will not appear in videos anymore. Claire has entirely left BA for good. Hunzi as well, and he was a major driver of the zany fun style of lots of videos, and of course often the actual editor. In this video alone you can tell the energy and spirit of the previous videos is almost entirely gone. Chris, Carla, Molly, and the few others who are left can't carry it all alone. BA failed completely to address this issue the right way. Nothing that we saw on screen was problematic, except maybe Adam. Their correct recourse should have been to transparently address the inequities in pay/seniority/whatever needed to be done behind the scenes, and preserve everything onscreen exactly as it was.

@@its_clean oh no hunzi! What happens now to it’s alive 🥺

there was an article that said Brad, Andy and Chris will all return with their respective shows

Don't forget most of the applicants were over qualified for the position, but they suspiciously couldn't find someone with enough experience

It's truly crazy to me that companies that are forced to diversity hire instead of allowing it to naturally occur are the ones getting the flack for it now. Go woke, go broke!

Don't blame just bon appetit, this is a problem all the way up at conde nast - make no mistake

Video is not through BA but Conde Nast.

We all loved Chris, but he was a big part of all the systemic problems going on here. I can't look him in the eyes anymore.

thatswhy i downvote all videos until ba clears all they and we deserv it!!!!

Did he really say that?

@@vedathipparthi1031 yep. Chris was directly involved with the hiring process and had a part in running the test kitchen as well. He directly supported systemic racism in the company and doesn't deserve sympathy.

@@aluminumcurtain Thats so disappointing. I wasn’t convinced with his reasoning or all the fluff he threw around in this video, but I didn’t think he’d be such a significant contributor

its in a vulture article titled Going Sohla

@@venusdeovaltine4752 I literally just read it. So disappointing. So disingenuous

Because she strongarmed a promotion after a few months of being there by welding an online mob haha

@@user-bo1sl7gs9x agree

@@user-bo1sl7gs9x The "problem" she was talking about began before the BA scandal was revealed to the public. She received her first promotion prior to the whole affair. You clearly don't know what you're talking about.

Hiring someone overqualified who wants to leverage into a higher position is a problem. While you have another great person on staff you have an additional person on payroll and an essential role left empty. Sohla accepted the position and wage initially, was unhappy with the increases offered her, and when she didn’t receive the wages she felt she was worth... she left. Perfectly acceptable, it’s just business. While this issue is larger and more complex, culturally we seem to happy with roasting a corporation in effigy without scrutinizing all the elements. Outrage and guilt are not great motivators for a cultural shift. Love, compassion and conviction are. Be persistent in the latter three and vote conscionably with every dollar you spend. Not just every 4 years.

While also looking for overqualified experienced specifically black candidates. Anyone know white would have been entry level and anyone poc needed to practically have ten years experience for an entry level ion

@@tangosparks1111 lol

What did I miss?

??

@@weatheredtome Vulture just did a profile on Sohla and she described the situation at BA in more detail. Here's the excerpt about Chris: About five months into the job, she says, management wanted to create a more junior position underneath her to do the cross-testing she had originally been hired for. “They really wanted to hire someone Black, which I know you’re not allowed to say legally, out loud,” she says. “And Chris Morocco [the director of the Test Kitchen] directly told me he didn’t like how quickly I moved up, so he wanted to make sure this person would never be allowed to develop recipes.” As she puts it, management didn’t want another “Sohla problem.”

I know right

@@MAlatinboy more proof that Chris is the GOAT

y not

@@max-hc9tb Claire is one of the ones who left, a few others stayed on at BA but won’t be on camera anymore

I hope she makes her own videos.. even though I doubt she will. She could do something simmilar on her own. The Try Guys did. I don't know what copyrights BA has on "gourmet makes" but Claire could easily call it "will it Gourmet?" Or whatever else. She also just got married.. and is releasing a book. She has a lot on her plate and while I would love her to post her own videos - I doubt she is currently up for the task of doing that on her own.

I'm kind of okay with that, I feel like they were practically torturing her as time went on. She seemed so frustrated rather than inspired/having fun. I loved the beginning episodes where she was enjoying elevating snack foods, by the end it turned into "Hey Claire you need to perfectly recreate something that's only possible on a factory line, bye!"

Just like how in the last video, no one bothered to read the pinned comment before getting mad

chris isn't the guy to blame for all this tho. The people behind the scenes should be speaking up and going in front of the camera instead of being like "hey look, we have POC execs finally!" and "hey look, it's chris, and meatballs, you like those, right?"

Sounds like half the story.

grantcivyt maybe we’d know the other half if Chris actually brought it up instead of wanting to have a conversation about meatballs

@@sexxygummybearr Totally fair. But it's also wrong to take silence on the subject as an indictment. Consider what would happen if Chris denied the allegations. My guess is anything short of abject apologizing would be taken as further evidence of his evil. There's a presumption that only people in power can do wrong. That's not a recipe for any kind of justice.

She did move up really fast though. Of course people who were there grinding for years didn't like that.

@@sexxygummybearr if you read the Vulture article, Chris did deny Sohla's accusation.

No. Not really.

I'm stoked seeing Chris back on camera. He could prepare a bowl of cereal and give a like and comment

Most of us never watched for any corporate loyalty. We just liked the on screen personalities. Screw BA, I was here for Brad's antics, Claire decent into madness reverse-engineering popular snacks, and the rest of the crew just having fun.

@@NWinnVR trueeee i never cared about BA the channel. I care about the personality of the crew members. And the viewership will go to wherever they go

Why is racism bad though?

@@thethingthatshouldnotbe7221 Is this a serious question or are you trolling?

@@SevdeLu I'm serious. Explain whats wrong with racism plz?

@@thethingthatshouldnotbe7221 I'll tell you why, even though it should be of common sense: because it's absolutely ridiculous to prejudge and neglect people by their skin color or nationality. Just because you are not white, you have less resources, less job opportunities, not allowed to have education, medical insurance, the right to vote, and you get arrested with extreme violence!! Just. Because. You're not. White. Let that sink in and you tell me why is not a good thing at all.

@@thethingthatshouldnotbe7221 Well great that you want to educate yourself. I respect that. The thing with racism against black people specifically is that it’s a construct of white people, created around the 17th and 18th century, where the white people decided they are of more value, so they could enslave people of darker skintones. That thought is still present. The ideal beauty standard is someone with light skin, blue eyes, blonde hair. Anything different and you‘re automatically less than. Of course there are the big things, that are not acceptable anymore, but racism itself is more than calling someone any racial slur. In BAs case they paid people of different races less. So you have white privilege: white creators got paid more, not because of there experience, but solely because of there „marketable“ white skin, names etc. Then you have microaggressions. For example me getting asked, is I can’t marry a white dude, because people are too lazy to learn how to pronounce my name. All wrapped in a joke, but still hurtful. All in all it is a system which degrades, undermines and hurts people who point blank just look different. So I want to ask you: what is good about it?

The BIPOC who weren’t paid fairly and quit doing videos. CNE has made no changes. They hired new BIPOC and are probably paying them pennies.

@@kelsey4493 do you know their salaries?

@@Zveebo ANDY'S IN THIS TOO?! dear god...

Chris not staining his shirt - Chris has retained his powers.

I thought the same thing. I would be covered in tomato sauce splatters, plus the stove top, and you would be finding red tomato sauce spots all over that hat beautiful white test kitchen for days / weeks.

They have addressed it.

@@TrishaMaybe I mean the last video didn’t really addresses anything, they just hired new people. But i’ll give ‘em props cause I think some of the new people were put in leadership positions, but i’ll go check who. Edit: The new poc in leadership positions are Sonia Choppra, _executive editor_ , and Dawn Davis, _editor in chief_ .

@@erazn9077 Bon Appétit is a magazine. Just a thought here, but maybe you could Google it.

@@TrishaMaybe oh right the June 10 one, i just found out about it and at least they’re admitting what they’ve done but i’ll wait for more videos to come out and more time to pass just to see if they’re actually committed to their word or not.

They have addressed it and Sohla has moved on. You should too.

On a completely surface level, she became a problem that caused all of this with how she reacted. If what she is saying is true then yes BA is to blame (duh) but this isn't how adults handle workplace disputes. I don't care on either side, I think both parties are to blame, but it was wrong and we don't know who's telling the truth

@@BaioWithMayo I mean :/ Sohla stood up for herself and asked for fair pay, a fair number of her coworkers agreed with her statement and backed her up. The truth is pretty evident. If she didn't make a public statement, people would be asking questions and speculating anyways, and the racism at Conde/BA would just silently continue.

@@BaioWithMayo you're assuming sohla hasn't been dealing with all this behind the scenes and became fed up and just blew and up. Glad she did, because only then we were talking about it. Did you really think anything would have changed if she stayed quiet?

@@12345678abracadabra i think i can reply to both in one, but there is still no corroborating evidence other than coworker testimony. THAT DOES NOT MEAN SHE IS LYING, it just means we don't have true evidence that anything happened. Blowing up just made it public, and created a hate mob towards BA. Its a classic disgruntled employee scenario, and we still have 0 proof. Maybe it's just me but I like to see evidence before I rip apart one person or group. Again both parties are likely in the wrong, and no one is blameless. I have lost a ton of respect for both groups, and will "vote with my view" on who I think is right

@@BaioWithMayo thank you
