Okay, so we learned an important lesson during the recording of the first episode of Willets Pod, featuring hosts Allison Robicelli, Jesse Spector, and Colleen Sullivan: don't try to keep up with the Mets game during the show.For one thing, while we're writing a Mets ebook, our podcast is not really about the Mets. Allison lives with a Mets fan and observes the unique experience that such a lifestyle brings (she hasn't written anything here yet, but she will, and we can't wait — check her bio on our about page, and check out some of her writing), while Colleen and Jesse have other baseball interests, too, even if they're live-chatting Mets games on our Discord (come through!) and have followed the Mets for decades.Our ebook is about the Mets, and our Substack (as you're starting to see with the launch of The Flushing Review) is some of the folks from there, in a space where the Mets are a jumping off point. On Willets Pod, in particular, we'll talk about Mets stuff because the Mets are so incredibly Mets… it's the weirdness and psychological drama that we're about, but also, in this premiere episode (and no show's premiere is that good — watch the Seinfeld pilot), you'll see (hear) that we really started to find our footing after the Mets blew that stupid game in Philadelphia (after Jesse had said they were on their way to 4-1 — he should know better) and we could talk more freely about the most important thing in baseball during our recording: Sean Murphy's butt.The Mets were already in a place where it would make sense for them to trade for Murphy (apologies to James McCann and his nice start), and now the Mets really need to trade for this man and put him in some of those blue pinstriped pants.Listen to the whole thing because it's only half an hour and we had a good time throughout, and quite honestly we're delightful people, but if you really want a preview of where we think this nonsense is going (especially once we add Steph Driver as another host and start getting guests in here — another reason to help us get to $15,000), there's one part where Allison talks about dipping balls in yogurt, and the last eight minutes — after Colleen recovered from some technical difficulty, in fact — are a window in to what delights are to come, such as Colleen's trip to the White Sox home opener.So, preorder the Willets Pen ebook today and support butt-positive baseball media. You'll get a free month (at least) tacked on to your Substack subscription, and that means bonus episodes of the podcast when we start having bonus episodes of the podcast, and that's when the edibles kick in, were we to do that right before the show, which at least 33% of us definitely did not do for the premiere, but possibly should.

We wanted to do an episode about the changing restaurant landscape of NYC, but to get there, we went down a wonderfully twisted path touching on topics such as: - Red lobster - Beefsteak Charlies - How the Broadway show "Cats" is most likely just an elaborate practical joke that went viral - City kids in the 1980's and their envy of all things "John Hughes Suburbia" The audio quality sucks (which is to be expected since it's the end of the world and such), but the content is amazing.

Sometimes our Special Sauce guests are just so idiosyncratic, so entertaining, so thoughtful, and so zany, I find myself alternately laughing and near tears for an hour and a half straight. That's what happened when I had Matt and Allison Robicelli on the podcast. Allison is a longtime baker, cook, and James Beard- nominated food writer; Matt is a graduate of the French Culinary Institute who has cooked at City Bakery and Lutèce. Together, they opened the acclaimed bakery Robicelli's in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn (which closed in 2015), and wrote a cookbook, Robicelli's: A Love Story, With Cupcakes. But before all of that- before they ever met, in fact- each of them faced life-changing events that indirectly led them to pursue their culinary interests professionally: Allison was diagnosed with stage IV Hodgkin's lymphoma, and Matt was a paramedic who suffered injuries while responding at the World Trade Center on 9/11. Neither had even reached their 21st birthday at the time, which helped them bond when they finally met. "I think one of the reasons we got along so well was because after I survived cancer, it's really hard to relate to somebody who's 22 and didn't go through that," Allison says. Nowadays, Matt and Allison run a culinary consulting business, co-own a couple of New York food businesses, and host their own podcast, The Robicelli Argument Clinic, whose name is self-explanatory: "We just quibble a lot, and we argue," Allison says. "We've been together for 14 years, and somebody was like, that's entertaining. Cut to tape. That was it. So we decided to do a podcast of just- we have these ridiculous arguments, just any kind of food topic. We just want to have more fun." I asked my standard question about what life was like at Matt and Allison's respective family tables when they were growing up. Allison dispelled the stereotype that everyone has warm and fuzzy memories of their childhood dinners: "I remember a lot of yelling [in my family], I remember putting a TV there because that would shut everybody up.... Food can bring up all the memories. It can bring up all of the feelings. It's complicated just like we are. I think that's the kind of beauty about it." Family meals don't have to resemble a Norman Rockwell painting, Allison contends: "There's all these beautiful stories on the internet about the family table, and not everybody had it. You know what? That's okay. If your family dinner was eating McDonald's in the car alone- that's fine." The table that the Robicellis share nowadays includes their two preteen boys, Toby and Atticus, and that makes mealtimes predictably challenging. "The pickiest eaters I've ever met," Allison calls them. "They drive me insane." In keeping with their own podcast style, my conversation with the Robicellis turned out to be a series of wacky and wise, well, arguments, and you'll have to listen to this episode and the one that follows to enjoy them. Matt and Allison are two wonderfully human interviewees, and great company. My guess is that they'll make you laugh as hard as I laughed, and they might make you cry as well. --- The full transcript for this episode can be found over here at Serious Eats: https://www.seriouseats.com/preview?record=443265

In the last year, though, the couple closed their shop, moved to Baltimore, and hit the pause button.

Born in Brooklyn, Allison Robicelli of Robicelli’s Bakery started out in the food business more focused on the savory side of things, working as a catering chef for several years. But she was no stranger to sweets. While learning how to be a chef, Robicelli ran a cake business out of her parents' house. In 2005 she met Matt, a fellow food industry veteran. The pair started dating and soon got engaged. Allison and Matt married in October 2006 and have since welcomed two sons, Atticus and Toby. In 2008, she and Matt launched a gourmet foods and sandwich shop in 2008. While economic difficulties led them to close that shop, the pair spun off their popular cupcakes into a stand­-alone business: Robicelli’s Bakery in Brooklyn. In 2013, they published their first cookbook, Robicelli's: A Love Story, with Cupcakes.
