Each week host Father Leo Patalinghug will uses his background as a former competitive break dancer, four-time Tai Kwon Do champion, singer, teacher, world traveler and cook to get to the heart of family and relationship troubles. Through a unique combination of healthy food, humor and years of counseling experience, Fr. Leo will get busy families back on track by bringing them back to the table.
Picky eaters. A mom who hates to cook. One jam-packed schedule. Father Leo helps a busy Maryland family learn how to ditch their fast-food mentality for a delicious Italian meal.
The program is in development, but is not currently on the air. However, based on the pilot episode, PBS and PBS Plus have enthusiastically endorsed the program and have agreed to make it available to affiliates nationwide once production is complete.
