Cheddar starting ChedHER, a business news show for women

Cheddar announced Thursday a new weekly program called ChedHER, a half-hour show airing on Fridays at 9:30 a.m. focused on women in business and entrepreneurship.

The first episode runs tomorrow and will be broadcast from the New York Stock Exchange.

“We created ChedHER as a single day event prior to International Women’s Day. After receiving amazing feedback from women and men alike, we knew we had to keep the conversation going,” said Nicole Sander, senior director of brand partnerships at Cheddar, in a statement.

The show is hosted by Cheddar’s women anchors and will focus on topics such as women executives, pay gap news, lessons from entrepreneurs, navigating male-dominated industries, buying a house as a single female, financing life stages, and career growth for women.

Cheddar’s programming is available on Sling TV, Hulu, YouTube TV, Snapchat, fuboTV, Philo, Amazon, Twitter, 60 percent of smart TVs in the U.S., and Facebook.
