On the premiere episode of Bobby Flay’s brand-new podcast Bobby on the Beat, chef Ayesha Nurdjaja opened up about her whirlwind year, her close partnership with Flay, and the surprising rumor that recently sent fans into a panic.
Flay introduced her as the perfect guest for his very first episode, calling her “the newest Titan on Triple Threat” and someone who “crushed it in her first season.” He added, “I have so much love for Ayesha for so many reasons. She’s a wonderful chef. She is a wonderful person.”
Nurdjaja admitted that her life “feels different” than it did a year ago, thanks to overwhelming positivity from viewers. “I feel like this time around… there was all positivity surrounded by it,” she said.

But mid-episode, she revealed something unexpected: “According to the internet right now, you and I had an explosive argument and that I have said farewell to the fans and I’m not coming back.”
Flay couldn’t believe it. “What?!” he said. "This is unbelievable! Are you serious?!"
“People are reaching out — ‘Please tell me this isn’t true.’”
Nurdjaja clarified immediately: “But I am coming back. I’m so excited for season 4," to which Flay replied, "Well, I'm glad you're coming back. And yeah, the rumors are untrue. We get along perfectly."

“You’re a damn great chef,” he told her. “You made me look really smart.”

Ayesha agreed that trust was foundational between them. “You were like, ‘We’re partners now,’ and that really meant something to me,” she said.

Nurdjaja said people often confuse being good on TV with being a good cook.
Flay agreed: “People think being on TV isn’t about cooking — it’s really about cooking. That’s the most important thing.”
They both emphasized staying grounded in the kitchen, not the cameras. The two also bonded over their shared New York backgrounds. Flay joked that Ayesha’s entire borough showed up to her Triple Threat premiere party.
But for Flay, her mother was the standout. “She is such an important part of your life,” he said.
“Brooklyn’s in the house, baby,” Flay said. “I’m so glad you’re here.”
