Journalists and radio producers Stephanie Kuo and Juan Ramirez interview chefs and purveyors of color, tackling food's relationship to race, gender and class in their bi-weekly podcast that pushes the boundaries of food media.

E29: Anh Luu Gives You Wings 0
May 31, 2017

Zahir starts off with some thoughts on the recent deadly white supremacist violence in Portland, and talks a bit about his thoughts on Portland in general. 

The core of this episode is our funny and thoughtful interview with Anh Luu, the chef/owner of Portland’s Tapalaya restaurant. Anh talks with us about growing up Viet in New Orleans, working her way up through its kitchens, and the windy road that brought her to Tapalaya.

Zahir's mom dishes on Indian food in Tanzania, how she defines fusion food, and why she mischievously leaves out ingredients when people ask her for recipes.

E27: Planting Seeds Among Concrete (w/ Wanda Stewart)  0
May 3, 2017

We celebrate our first anniversary by having guest producer Cristina Kim takes us to Oakland, Ca to talk with Wanda Stewart on the joys and challenges of teaching gardening and community farming at Hoover Elementary. Wanda welcomes us into her classroom and opens up about her goal to dismantle the negative connotations many of her students and their parents-- especially from the African American community--have with getting dirty and growing food.  In a time where it's hard to know how to best be active and engaged, she reminds us that the way forward may be as simple as working like ants. 

Produced by Juan Ramirez and Cristina Kim. Music by AF the Naysayer and Blue Dot Sessions.
