How do YOU define value when eating at a restaurant or attending an event that includes food and beverage? Food and beverage companies have tended to over-serve guests, allowing for take-home food not consumed while dining. With the pandemic cooking up pent-up demand for travel and experiences, is that a value? Alex Susskind, Professor of Food and Beverage Management, the Director of the Cornell Institute of Food and Beverage Management, and serving as Associate Dean for Academic Affairs at the School, teaches undergraduate and graduate students, as well as industry managers and executives, how to address the operational and strategic elements of the food and beverage business. Listen as Tracy talks with Alex about how food service businesses can re-imagine their service to reduce their cost while still giving everyone what they need and creating their own value proposition.

The International Well Building Institute has appointed Esther to their newly formed Investing for Health Advisory. For 10 years she was the primary caregiver for her mother. Key Takeaways Environments impact the functioning and well-being of older adults, for better or worse. An optimal fit between the person and environment allows the highest level of independence. “Environmental press” (poor fit) pushes people to an artificially lower level of functioning that causes “forced frailty” and is costly to society. Status quo environments are designed for a small subset of the population—the average height male between the ages of 20 and 40. We design for the highest physical cognitive and sensory abilities; everybody else has to adapt. In 2010 we had approximately seven potential caregivers for every older adult. By 2050, it will be less than three. Enabling Design leverages the built environment to reduce demand for long-term care.
A live & interactive discussion with Esther Greenhouse, the visionary creator of the innovative Enabling Design Approach to address multiple challenges caused by the built environment with a single approach that enables to people to thrive. Raising awareness of the dis-abling impacts of the built environment on us as we age, how this increases demand for care, and how it impacts caregivers...while creating solutions via the Enabling Design Approach reduce the demand for caregiving reduce long-term care costs improve lives Esther Greenhouse An internationally recognized expert on Universal Design, Aging in Place, and Age-Friendly Community Planning, Esther's leading-edge perspectives are contributing to positive change.

We learned this week that Uber saw strong demand for its food delivery service in recent months, despite restaurants reopening. Late last year, the company bought its competitor Postmates for $2.6 billion dollars. Behind the scenes, Uber has been working to merge the two businesses, transitioning drivers away from the Postmates corporate app for months, with plans to completely shut it down as soon as next week. The consumer app will stick around. Marketplace’s Meghan McCarty Carino speaks with Alex Susskind, director of the Cornell Institute for Food and Beverage Management. He says even though Uber and Postmates are offering essentially the same foods from the same drivers, there’s a reason the brands are separate: consumers.

Rodney shares the fascinating history of microbiome research and recounts his own life-changing, career-shifting revelations about microbiome-first medicine in reversing the modern epidemic of non-communicable chronic diseases (NCDs) and immune system disorders. We discuss the difference between viruses and bacteria, and because our dialogue took place in June 2021 (pre-Delta-variant spread in the US) he offered surprising views about COVID19, vaccines, and mask-wearing. We also cover the latest research on microbiome testing, probiotics, prebiotics, rebiosis, and fecal transplant interventions for physical and mental health disorders. Rodney Dietert, PhD has turned his wide-ranging expertise toward reducing the environmental health risks of children and protecting against chronic diseases by focusing on the microbiome and the immune system. As a full professor at Cornell University in the Department of Microbiology and Immunology and a faculty member in the Cornell Institute for Comparative and Environment Toxicology, Dr. Dietert has published peer-reviewed papers in more than 70 different scientific journals ranging from environmental health and pediatric medicine publications to nutrition, metabolism, immune, neurological and reproductive journals. He has been President of the Immunotoxicology Specialty Section of the Society of Toxicology and previously led Cornell's programs in immunology, toxicology and risk reduction of breast cancer. In 2012 Dr. Dietert introduced a new course at Cornell applying contemplative tools for creative problem solving. This has blossomed into a variety of new educational programs and workshops.

Guled Mire is a policy advisor, and writer, speaker and community advocate ~ On the podcast, we’ve talked about topics like slacktivism from an academic perspective. We’ve discussed the Christchurch Principles and ideas like freedom of speech and democracy online. But in this episode, we’re chatting to someone who lives and breathes activism, both in our material world and in our online spaces. Guled Mire is a Fulbright Scholar and a Fellow at the Cornell Institute for Public Affairs. He is senior policy advisor by profession and a writer, speaker and community advocate in his spare time. Guled uses his platform and profile to facilitate courageous conversations about racism and discrimination in New Zealand and to discuss the things we need to do to build a truly inclusive, welcoming society. Guled is a big fan of having open conversations about mental health and is a founding member of the Third Culture Minds Charitable Trust, which supports young people from refugee and migrant backgrounds to get the support they need. In this episode, Guled gives us insight as to what it’s like to be an activist in the online space. Where does he think the online space is most powerful? Why is having access to other people and businesses meaningful - and why can it also be dangerous? How can people be effective allies to support marginalised people in the online space? What’s it like to show up as an individual and present views that challenge and outright go against the status-quo? Trigger warning: this conversation does discuss the Christchurch mosque attacks. Guled uses an example in this episode that references the Crusaders - and for anyone who is not from New Zealand, you’ll likely be able to deduce this from the story Guled tells - but just for added context, the Crusaders were, and somewhat controversially still are, the local rugby team of Christchurch. Shownotes: Find and follow Guled on Instagram and Twitter. Learn more and support Third Culture Minds on their website, and follow the organisation on Twitter, Instagram or Facebook.

Welcome to the second half of season 2! This episode features Ndirangu Warugongo Jr, a Cornell Institute for Public Affairs Fellow, Associate Editor for the Cornell Policy Review and; in his own words; a capturer of moments. In this episode we consider the complexity of identity in predominantly white institutions, how to deal with imposter syndrome; and how to navigate the human aspects of academic institutions. We discuss how institutions are "as human as much as they are not", and why it is important to create relationships with different individuals in an institution. Ndirangu shares some insight in how he applied for his master’s programme, how to take the GREs, as well as lessons he learned in the year between his undergrad and his grad career.
