Celebrity chef Bobby Flay is launching a talk radio show on which he will offer advice to men on everything from dating, dining, dressing and how to nail a tough job interview.

The star of numerous Food Network programs will host "Bobby Flay Radio" weekly on SIRIUS XM Radio starting Thursday. Flay is signed on for a five-week run, but says he is open to more if the two-hour show goes well.

While the call-in show will touch on everything from sports to current events, Flay says food still will be the focus.

"Food transcends so much now," Flay said in a telephone interview. "It's become so much part of lifestyle. How you eat, plate it, how you dress and how you live all have a lot to do with one another."

Flay's wife, actress Stephanie March, will join him on the show occasionally.

"When basically I'm saying everything wrong, she'll correct me," Flay said.
