Disgraced foodperson and former Food Network star Paula Deen — who was fired from her post for using racist language in front of her employees — announced the launch of her new podcast in partnership with Compass Media. But what will "Get Cooking With Paula Deen" be about? Paula Deen’s done a lot of talking this year (and so has her publicity team), so what could she possibly have left to say? Here are some topics Deen could chit-chat about:
1) How parents can avoid playing favorites with their children (even though Bobby is clearly The Good One)
2) How to have a successful second career moonlighting as a cruise ship activities director (while dodging adoring, rabid fans)
3) How the 100 black kids she mentors with Steve Harvey are really the ones who mentor her
4) How promoting a well-buttered lifestyle has impacted the trendy kids slurping down bulletproof coffee

6) Paula's thoughts on margarine
7) Paula's thoughts on coconut oil
8) Paula's thoughts on olive oil (i.e. "olive ole")

11) How to pick your husband Michael’s beard hair out of your Ooey Gooey Butter Cake — or how to pick the cake out of his beard
12) How Paula keeps her eyes so blue (Also, a convenient segue to a panel on how to draw inspiration while designing a line of discount designer eyewear)
13) How it feels to edge out Wilford Brimley as the new face of diabetic lifestyle management
