Guests Jane Kelly founded Eat Your Books in 2009 with her sister Fiona Nugent because she wanted to easily find recipes in her extensive cookbook collection, and reasoned there are other cooks with the same need. She has spent the past 15 years building the site into a search engine for 2.6 million recipes found in cookbooks, food magazines, and online. Previously, she held senior roles in television and music for the Virgin Group in the UK. Katie Thacher leads CookShelf, which now manages Eat Your Books and is building the next iteration of the product. A lifelong cook and cookbook lover, Katie spent most of her career in product management for consumer tech products, most recently spending 6 years at Amazon working on Kindle and Amazon Music. After leaving Amazon, she wanted to combine her love of cooking with her love of building great tech products, which led her to reach out to Jane about working together on Eat Your Books. In addition, she co-owns a wine bar called Little Thing in Seattle's Beacon Hill neighborhood. Episode Summary This episode explores how technology bridges the gap between physical cookbooks and digital resources by making more recipes available to cooks. Jane and Katie discuss their journey with Eat Your Books, a platform that helps home cooks easily find and utilize recipes from their personal cookbook collections and an almost endless array of digital resources. They also discuss the role of technology in reducing food waste and how their forthcoming app, CookShelf, will foster a deeper connection to cooking and culinary exploration.

Today we're so excited to be speaking with the Michigan chef Ji Hye Kim. We've followed Ji Hye's incredible career in Ann Arbor, where she runs the wonderful Korean restaurant Miss Kim. Ji Hye is a Food & Wine Best New Chef and has been nominated for multiple James Beard Foundation Awards. But what makes Matt most excited about this conversation on Korean food is the chef's deep knowledge of Korean food's modern (and less modern) history. We talk about some of our mutual favorite Korean dishes—gamjatang certainly comes up—and we discuss how Ji Hye worked her way through the Zingerman's training program and eventually opened her own place.Also on the show, we catch up with Jane Kelly and Jenny Hartin, two dedicated cookbook fans behind the active online community Eat Your Books. We talk about some of their favorite books from the busy spring season and the types of books they wish they saw more of in cookbook publishing.More from Ji Hye Kim:5 Things I Wish Someone Told Me Before I Became a Restauranteur [Medium]Ann Arbor Chef Named One of America's Best [Detroit Free Press]Best New Chef 2021 [Food and Wine]

Silicon Valley loves its disruption. If any industry was prepared to handle the monumental changes brought on by the coronavirus, it’s big tech. Companies like Twitter and Facebook were some of the first to require their employees to work from home, even before official shelter-in-place orders went into effect. Now, they and others have extended their remote work policies to allow their employees to telecommute from home forever, even after the pandemic ends. This week on Gadget Lab, WIRED senior writer Arielle Pardes joins us to talk about the workplace goings-on in Silicon Valley. In the second half of the show, we discuss Clubhouse, the hot new social network keeping tech bigwigs connected.

Hello and welcome back to another episode of the Cookbook Love Podcast. Today I feature an interview with Jenny Hartin the publicity director for Eat Your Books and founder of The Cookbook Junkies. Jenny is here today to talk about exciting cookbooks coming up for Fall 2019, her new book, 101 Things to Do with a Bundt Pan, trends in cookbook concepts, and what Jenny’s seeing in cookbook design. And because it's Halloween, we also discuss a few spooky or Halloween cookbooks that are on our shelves.

Today is a jam-packed episode as I welcome back for her 2nd interview, Jenny Hartin, of The Cookbook Junkies and publicity director for Eat Your Books. Today in our conversation, Jenny and I discuss what’s on the horizon for cookbooks in 2019 and new books Jenny’s excited about including Gnocchi Solo Gnocchi and The New Pie. We also discuss the work done by Eat Your Books in their Best of the best cookbooks list for 2018, as well as the upcoming revision of the classic dessert cookbook The Last Course by Claudia Fleming, pastry chef at Gramercy Tavern. The Last Course, as a used book commands over $80/copy, so the new revision is highly anticipated as a way to access this classic book at a lower price point. Jenny and I also discuss cookbook award programs, including how books are submitted to these awards, and how the books are judged, and the method that Eat Your Books uses to look at book sales for their yearly cookbook popularity lists. One last topic we discuss is an article in the Washington Post about Magnolia Table by Joanna Gaines. This book sold over 1M copies but didn’t make the “Best of 2018” list published by WashPo. How does this happen that over 1M people buy the book, and presumably like the book, but the WashPo doesn’t give it any kudos on their lists?
