Danish public broadcaster DR has announced a change for its popular cooking and talk show 'Nak & Æd'. The program will now be hosted by comedian and presenter Felix Schmidt and chef and food writer Liva Haaland. They are taking over from the previous hosts, Mette Bluhme and Nikolaj Sonne, who have left the show.
Felix Schmidt is well known to Danish audiences for his role on the satirical news program 'Tæt på Sandheden'. In a statement provided with the announcement, Schmidt expressed his unique approach to the new role. He said, "I've been invited along to stir a bit of trouble into the cake batter," indicating his comedic style will influence the show.
Liva Haaland also shared her excitement about joining the program. The chef and food writer brings her culinary expertise to the format, which combines cooking with conversation. The pairing of a comedian and a professional chef suggests the show will continue to blend humor with food-focused discussion under its new leadership.
The change has generated immediate public interest and high search volume, reflecting the show's popularity and the audience's curiosity about its new direction. 'Nak & Æd' remains a key program for DR, and this hosting update marks a new chapter for the series as it continues to engage viewers with its mix of cooking and talk.
