Podcasts about crack pie

It's mid-July. Sarah's sizzling in the hell mouth that is Dallas, Nancy's mired in NYC's hot human grime, and both think it's a really good idea to stay inside and watch some television. “The Bear” on FX/Hulu turns out to be the distraction they need, a high-octane but humane adventure set in a Chicago kitchen. Nancy is moved to tears by the sight of broken people trying to be better. Sarah gets sucked in by the characters learning from each other and finding self-respect in their work. And both Nancy and Sarah are captivated by the making of a cake. Another treat turns out to be “How to Change Your Mind,” a four-part docu-series about psychedelics based on the 2018 Michael Pollan book that Sarah kept meaning to read. (Thank you, Netflix.) We learn under-the-radar histories about LSD, psilocybin, MDMA, and mescaline, and hear from folks who say these long-vilified drugs can alleviate suffering, ease trauma, and evoke wonder. Sarah wonders if a sober life includes room for psychedelics. Nancy wonders if that amazing drug she once took was actually mescaline. Also discussed: men and crying, fear of death, and keg stands.A very under-appreciated intoxicant is becoming a free or paid subscriberEpisode Notes:NOMA, in Copenhagen, often named best restaurant in the world“The Bear” official trailerDavid Chang, chef and founder of the Momofuku restaurant chain and all-around interesting person, including on his podcast, The Ringer.

Christina Tosi is a force of nature and pop culture phenomenon who changed the way people eat deserts. Creator of Milk Bar, Christina Tosi has been described by people who know her as someone who “understands nostalgia and at the same time wants to destroy it.” We unpack her rise to heavenly dessert greatness and the lessons along the way. The lone GOAT for this episode...Crack Pie! We serve it up in a way you can get it!

This week we're playing a brand new game called "Name Those Trilogies." Plus a special "What the Chuck?!" about burger flipping robots.

Here we go fans! another exciting episode of the Geeking Hard Podcast!  This week we sit down to talk about some tasty food, depressing books, new comic books and Rachel's Auto Insurance hour.  All this and so much more!  #KOGO!

"Crack Pie: It's love at first bite...Sold at Momofuku Bakery & Milk Bar in Manhattan [and Brooklyn], this pie has taken New York City by storm, partly because of the audacious name, partly because of the jaw-dropping price tag -- $44 a pie, yes, $44 a pie -- and partly because anyone who has tried it, including myself, CNN bigwig Anderson Cooper and the people who are buying the 60 to 90 Crack Pies sold each day or two, can’t stop raving about it. Still not convinced? Out-of-town demand is so high that the bakery just started shipping the pie by FedEx. They’ve even sought trademark protection for the name." -Rene Lynch  *Sigh*...so yum. Sadly, for you pie lovers out there, today's episode isn't exactly about pie (although Azza does reveal her relationship with Crack Pie, which clearly inspired the title). It is, however, quite a DELICIOUS exploration of our relationship with desire, addiction, conscious decision making, boundary setting and learning to love ourselves throughout the process--as challenging as that may be or seem at times. We encourage you to grab your favorite dessert while tuning in. Azza has since parted ways with Crack Pie (still on good terms) and is now going steady with Honey Mama's Dutch Cocoa Nectar Bar...who, she conveyed, has been much sweeter to her AND her gut microbiome :-P  Love, Azza & Lana HAREMESQUE Donate: Paypal - info@haremesque.com 

the boys discuss bon jovi's meaty adult son who is in an umami burger commercial for some reason, and realize they are dangerously close above rob schneider's podcast on the itunes charts and vow to grow that lead and build a #SchneiderBuffer. then, the fellas are joined by comedian and newly-minted amateur baker will weldon (@oldmanweldon, @willbakeshimselftodeath) to talk about the maddening descent into his own personal hell that is home baking.

We open with a couple of stories from Dan. Fact or crap: One right for John, none for Dan. Mail Bag: Three from Joe: 1) Alexa has been eavesdropping on you this whole time. 2) Instagram model denies claims she swam in sacred spring. 3) Crack Pie is no more as Milk Bar changes name of famous dessert. The Rest of the Show: All email and stories this week.

School of Fools ( A dress code for parents and no doors on the bathroom stall for students), Hellboy becomes Heckboy, and Crack Pie changes its name.

Crack Pies, CBD Burgers, and Charitable Chefs This week in food news is very drug-centric. Milk Bar has renamed its Crack Pie and Carls Jr. is releasing a 4/20 CBD Burger. Massimo Battura is working hard and feeding the homeless. After being slammed by critics for “Crack Pie” being offensive, Christina Tosi of Milk Bar has changed the foods name to Milk Bar Pie. Milk Bar is the second establishment this year to replace the phrase “crack” in their food, the first being HopCat, a large gastropub franchise in Michigan, they changed their “crack fries” to “galaxy fries”. The year is 2019, and even though the crack epidemic has softened up, there are still thousands of people addicted to crack, and it is not something to make light of. Source Fast Food Chain Carl’s Jr is releasing a CBD infused burger for one day to test it out and see if there is a demand. Tom predicted that a fast food chain would put a CBD infused item on their menu back in January. Carl’s Jr is only releasing the burger for 1 day(4/20, obviously) at one location(Denver, obviously) to see if it is something that they should pursue for the rest of the country. Source Massimo Battura was nominated as one of one Time Magazine’s 100 most influential people of 2019. He has started community kitchens all over the world that serve restaurant quality food and feed the homeless, refugees, and the food insecure. Feeding the food insecure is a big topic for this episode, as we interview Matt Jozwiak, the President of ReThink Food, an organization that dedicates themselves to feeding the food insecure. Source An Ode To The Red Sauce Joint This week Bon Appetit put together one of the most comprehensive pieces on Italian- American Cuisine. They titled their work Red Sauce America and put together over a dozen different articles addressing all sorts of Red Sauce culture from Six Degrees of Chicken Cutlets, to Everything You’ve Ever Wanted To Know about Rao’s, and even the History of Buca di Beppo Tom and I talk about our favorite Red Sauce joints, the difference between Italian and Italian-American food, and what how both of our death row meals are Red Sauce dishes. Tutto Bene translated to Everything Good, but more importantly, was the restaurant of my childhood. My father’s office was across the street from them and to this day is still probably where I’ve had the most meals of my life.  Chicken Parmigiana, Veal Scarparella, Veal Sorrentino, and of course the Baked Clams. Writing this has me salivating over the memories of dipping crunchy bread into the leftovers of the baked clam tray, the oil, lemon, butter, parsley, and breadcrumbs. This is a visceral experience that can only be replicated at Red Sauce joints In Italian Cuisine Pasta is not a side dish. It is its own course to be respected and appreciated. I think that this is something that Italian-American cuisine gets wrong. I understand how inexpensive pasta is, but to offer it as a complimentary side dish cheapens it.  Pasta’s potential is limitless and can go toe to toe with any type of dish. To quote The Big Night “Sometimes the spaghetti likes to be alone” Matt Jozwiak and Rethink Food Tackle The Problem of Food Waste in NYC Sign up to Subscribe and Donate to Rethink Food NYC According to Feeding America, there are 42 million people facing hunger in the United States, with 1.4 million being in New York City alone. Astonishingly, research shows about 40% of the food produced in America today goes to waste; this is equivalent to 70 billion tons. Our goal is to make sure the wholesome excess food gets to hungry mouths. Rethink Food NYC Inc is a non-profit organization working to recover nutritious excess food to provide low or no-cost meals to New York City families in need. They transform unused food from grocery stores, restaurants, events, and corporate offices into ready-to-eat, nutritiously dense meals that are delivered to local human service organizations in New York City. With the initiative to run a community kitchen, their top chefs can both serve their community while developing entrepreneurial and leadership skills to help students establish an education that they will carry with them into future careers. Rethink Food NYC Inc goes beyond meals by using food as the tool to promote poverty solutions, participate in nutrition education, and convene food policy events. After learning about the Rethink Food mission I reached out to its Founder and President Matt Jozwiak and asked if we could have him on for an interview. We lucked out and he came to visit us in Greenpoint to talk all about what Rethink Food is doing to help food insecurity in NYC. Besides being one of the most impressive people I have met, Matt is also one of the most impressive chefs. He has trained at Noma, Alinea, and most recently Eleven Madison Park. He and his team tackled all the issues of restaurant food waste and food insecurity one by one to develop Rethink Food. I asked Matt if he needs more volunteers, more restaurants to partner with, or anything else. He told me no, they just need more donations. So once again, support the end of food insecurity and donate to Rethink Food. Sign up to Subscribe and Donate to Rethink Food NYC

Happy Thanksgiving, everybody!  It's turkey week and, while you're stuffing your face while arguing with that crazy uncle of yours, enjoy sneaking an earbud into your ear to take a listen to our wild and crazy show. Oh, and we ate some Crack Pie, courtesy of Momofuku Milkbar. And it was fuuuuckin' tasty.  NEWS HIGHLIGHTS THIS WEEK: "Big Mouth" has been renewed for a third season. Jon Cryer has been cast as Lex Luthor on "Supergirl." Benedict Cumberbatch was almost cast as Vampire Bill in HBO's "True Blood." A "Jack Reacher" TV series is in the works at Paramount Television. According to TV Line, the books' author, Lee Child, said, “for all his talent, [Tom Cruise] didn’t have that physicality.” So, for the TV series, they’re looking for someone who more closely matches the books’ description of Reacher. Basically, to sum up, Tom Cruise is too short. SYFY announced its first original late-night animated series, "Alien News Desk." Set to debut early 2019, the series is a weekly, half-hour topical animated series set in an extraterrestrial newsroom. Voiced by Will Forte (as alien news anchor “Drexx Drudlarr”) and “Saturday Night Live’s” Heidi Gardner (alien co-anchor “Tuva Van Void”), the 12-episode series will cover up-to-the-minute news and commentary about the universe’s most baffling species - the inscrutable Humans of Planet Earth.

Christina Tosi is the chef, founder and owner of Milk Bar, called “one of the most exciting bakeries in the country” by Bon Appétit magazine. Christina founded the dessert programs at Momofuku restaurant in New York and went on to build a culinary empire of her own from the ground up.
