Bob Warden has been a rep./vendor for many items and is still in many infomercials. I think one newer one is NuWave "extra burner" type thing. Also have seen him do a vacuum infomercial and Ninja (blender type). He has done several cookbooks. I don't think he has chef training, but he does have good tips and ideas to share. I think he (like Jan Mueller) has been the rep for many brands.

It seems like she is devaluing her accomplishments. Bob Wharden is a peddling salesperson. I did hear him mention once he worked in a hotel kitchen. I could have sworn I heard that.

Maybe QVC wanted to give her that "title". Also, she does wear blue jeans.

I don't think that moniker devalues her at all.. Just makes her seem more approachable and down to earth to many folks, i would imagine

"Starched White Hat" chef doesn't hold much appeal...

Jan Mueller ... Another TV pitchman who pops again and again on the infomercials. Regarding David Venable It wouldn't surprise me if Bob ""suggested"" ways to promote sales and David said ""no"" to his ideas. David can sell anything. He doesn't need Bob there next to him.

and David is NOT a ""TV pitchman""? is he not on TV and pitches whatever they tell him to? the only difference is he will pitch anything for QVC for money- The others pitch specific products for money...

Since Bob Bowersox left I never turn on QVC on Sunday. Have time to do interesting things and save money also!!

I think you're all thinking too hard.

David Venable is an accomplished news anchor as well as a salesman. I would not call him a pitchman. That title is reserved for people like Ron Popeill and Jan Mueller. Those two will hawk anything.

LOL , Ron Popeil is also an inventor who mainly hawked his own products which he,yes, invented- He also has a net worth in excess of $100 million dollars- He might be a tiny bit more successful than David Venable, news reader, OR Jan Mueller...
