“I didn't ask my dad many questions, and now I'll never know. And I could call my mom up right now, but I'm not going to do that because - ‘the culture' - we don't really ask each other personal questions.” Kathy MacLeod is an illustrator and cartoonist - the author of CONTINENTAL DRIFTER, her debut graphic novel - a memoir about a youth split between growing up in Bangkok, and her first summer camp experience in Maine. CONTINENTAL DRIFTER is a coming of age story about a girl caught between two worlds - her home of Thailand, where her mom is from, and her discovery - and reconciliation with reality of - the  exotic, idyllic America of her father. Kathy's work was an accidental discovery (and a happy surprise) - a classic childhood story of seeking belonging, but not being sure where we can find it. While it's a fun graphic novel geared for kids, at times it can be a heavy drama of understanding for all of us. It's really tender, and it has a lot of heart. Kathy's work has appeared in The Believer, Catapult, The Hairpin, and Lucky Peach. After spending most of her life in Bangkok, Thailand (with a four-year interlude at Wesleyan University), Kathy is currently living in Berlin, Germany. While our chat didn't cover much about her work, we covered a lot about the stories we each carry with us about the relationships we have with our families.  LEARN MORE instagram.com/kathy_macleod BOOK: Continental Drifter - goodreads.com/book/show/111672623-continental-drifter MENTIONS BOOK: Blankets (Craig Thompson): goodreads.com/book/show/25179.Blankets BOOK: Ducks (Kate Beaton): goodreads.com/en/book/show/59069071-ducks SHOW: Felicity: imdb.com/title/tt0134247/ BOOKS: Ramona Quimby (Beverly Cleary): goodreads.com/series/40341-ramona-quimby PERSON: Chanel Miller - wikipedia.org/wiki/Chanel_Miller Learn more about your ad choices.

Real Americans (Knopf, 2024) begins on the precipice of Y2K in New York City, when twenty-two-year-old Lily Chen, an unpaid intern at a slick media company, meets Matthew. Matthew is everything Lily is not: easygoing and effortlessly attractive, a native East Coaster, and, most notably, heir to a vast pharmaceutical empire. Lily couldn't be more different: flat-broke, raised in Tampa, the only child of scientists who fled Mao's Cultural Revolution. Despite all this, Lily and Matthew fall in love. In 2021, fifteen-year-old Nick Chen has never felt like he belonged on the isolated Washington island where he lives with his single mother, Lily. He can't shake the sense she's hiding something. When Nick sets out to find his biological father, the journey threatens to raise more questions than it provides answers. In immersive, moving prose, Rachel Khong weaves a profound tale of class and striving, race and visibility, and family and inheritance--a story of trust, forgiveness, and finally coming home. Exuberant and explosive, Real Americans is a social novel par excellence that asks: Are we destined, or made? And if we are made, who gets to do the making? Can our genetic past be overcome? Rachel's debut novel, Goodbye, Vitamin, won the 2017 California Book Award for First Fiction, and was a Los Angeles Times Book Prize Finalist for First Fiction. From 2011 to 2016, she was the managing editor then executive editor of Lucky Peach magazine. With Lucky Peach, she also edited a cookbook about eggs, called All About Eggs. In 2018, she founded The Ruby, a work and event space for women and nonbinary writers and artists in San Francisco's Mission district; she retired from that role in 2021. Recommended Books: Orhan Pamuk, My Name is Red Chris Holmes is Chair of Literatures in English and Associate Professor at Ithaca College. He writes criticism on contemporary global literatures.

In dieser Folge spricht Susi über ihren Film "Lucky Peach", der die bisher größte Herausforderung von ihr und Maggy zeigt. Im Rahmen des Eiger Ultra Trail wollten die zwei berg- und trailrunningbegeisterten Freundinnen 250 km mit 20.000 Höhenmetern und einem Zeitlimit von 100 Stunden non-stopp das gesamte Eiger-Aletsch-Massiv umrunden. Ohne Drehbuch, live in einem Trailrunning-Wettkampf und ohne Möglichkeit zum 2. Take dokumentiert "Lucky Peach" ihre Ups and Downs sowie die Probleme und Hindernisse, die sich ihnen auf der Strecke in den Weg stellen und sie (fast) zum Scheitern zwingen – doch so schnell geben die beiden nicht auf ... Eine Geschichte vom Ultralaufen, Verlieren und Gewinnen – und von Glückspfirsichen!

Rachel Khong is a journalist and author whose latest novel is Real Americans. “It's about the ways in which we miss each other as human beings and can't fully communicate what it is like to be ourselves. … And I think that's what makes it so interesting to me, to work on a novel and to spend so much time trying to get down on the page what it feels like to be a human being who's alive. … I think the effort itself is what human relationships are.” Show notes: rachelkhong.com 01:00 Real Americans (Knopf • 2024) 01:00 Goodbye, Vitamin (Picador • 2017) 01:00 Lucky Peach archive 01:00 "Would Limitlessness Make Us Better Writers?" (The Atlantic • Apr 2024) 01:00 "Dust to Dust" (Eater • May 2024) 05:00 "New Pornographers + Stars, 6/25 Prospect Park Summer Stage" (Village Voice • Jun 2005) 09:00 Same Bed Different Dreams (Ed Park • Random House • 2023) 12:00 "Inside My Days as a Content Bot" (Esquire • Apr 2024) 24:00 "The Rumpus Interview with Elizabeth Gilbert" (Rumpus • Oct 2012) 24:00 Eat Pray Love (Elizabeth Gilbert • Riverhead • 2007) 24:00 Elizabeth Gilbert's GQ archive 54:00 "The Great Pacific Oyster Trail" (Eater • Jun 2017) Learn more about your ad choices.

Dave checks the mailbag from the F1 Las Vegas Grand Prix. Questions include how to do one's honeymoon in Europe (and the best places to visit in late spring), the one condiment he would choose for the rest of his life (if it couldn't be Momofuku chili crunch), and his take on Japanese vs. Scottish whiskey. A listener asks if anything like Lucky Peach exists in today's food media environment, and Dave ruminates on whether it would actually work given the way media has evolved. The episode rounds out as Dave is asked about easy dishes to make at home; the question provokes another discussion on how Dave thinks about making food at the studio. Dave goes into detail about his deductive process, including the factors he considers to inform his decisions.

Bio: John Birdsall grew up near San Francisco and learned to cook at Greens Restaurant in that city. He spent the next seventeen years in professional kitchens there and in Chicago, and did some writing as a side gig, including food stories and restaurant reviews for the San Francisco Sentinel, a pioneering LGBTQ weekly. After leaving the kitchen, he was a restaurant critic and features writer at the Contra Costa Times and East Bay Express, and the editor of SF Weekly's food blog. In 2014, John won a James Beard Award for food and culture writing for “America, Your Food Is So Gay” in Lucky Peach, and another in 2016 for “Straight-Up Passing” in the queer food journal Jarry. He's co-author of the book Hawker Fare (with James Syhabout), published under the Anthony Bourdain imprint for Ecco–HarperCollins in 2018. The New Yorker's Helen Rosner called John's first solo book, The Man Who Ate Too Much: The Life of James Beard(Norton, 2020), “elegant and unvarnished,…beautifully unconventional.” The book was a finalist for a 2021 Lambda Literary Award, a finalist for the Publishing Triangle's Randy Shilts Award for Gay Nonfiction, and an Amazon Top 100 Best Book of the Year. John has written for Food & Wine, Bon Appétit, the San Francisco Chronicle, and Los Angeles Times, and taught culinary writing at the San Francisco Cooking School, and is a judge for the 2022 Publishing Triangle Randy Shilts and Judy Grahn Awards for gay and lesbian nonfiction. He's married to Perry Lucina, an artist and designer, and lives in Tucson.

The writer and essayist  John Birdsall grew up in San Francisco where he learned to cook at Green's restaurant before exiting the kitchen after 17 years to focus on food criticism and essays. He's won several James Beard awards for his writing, notably for his game-changing essay for Lucky Peach magazine, "America, your food is so gay," in which he spells out the precise ways in which a trio of gay men influenced American food culture. One of those men was James Beard, now the subject of Birdsall's is much-praised biographyThe Man Who Ate Too Much, in which he excavates hundreds of sources to create a deeply felt portrait of Beard, often dubbed the Dean of American Cookery. In this episode, Birdsall explains the ways in which Beard changed American food habits, and how his sexual identity impacted his life and career.

Our old friend and former TASTE columnist Priya Krishna has had a meteoric rise in food media, starting in the marketing department at Lucky Peach and going on to roles at Bon Appétit and, most recently, the New York Times, where she is a star reporter on the Food desk. In this interview, we talk about the new book she wrote with David Chang, Cooking at Home, and how they both set out to write a book that was original, opinionated, and clearly not the Momofuku Cookbook 2.0. We also talk about some of her recent stories at the New York Times, as well as in the pages of TASTE.Also on the show, Anna Hezel speaks with Adam Erace, author of a recent hit story about the godfather sandwich, a mainstay in delis on the East Coast. We found out how the sandwich takes on many personalities—and was not necessarily inspired by the film that shares its name.Additional reading:Was Cast Iron Almost Canceled?

These fruit are in the custard apple family and are enjoying a culinary renaissance, and so to learn more about these wild edibles, I turn to Sara Bir, the author of The Pocket Paw Paw Cookbook, just released with beautiful illustrations and plenty of ways to utilize your foraged fruit.

Musician, biologist and legal assistant are a few of the hats Danny Lee tried on before finding his perfect toque as Chef and Owner of Mandu, a traditional Korean restaurant in Washington, DC. No stranger to the restaurant business, Lee's mother, Yesoon Lee, also chef at Mandu, owned a sandwich shop in Old Town Alexandria, VA in the 1980s, and in the late ‘90s, a Charlie Chiang Kwai takeaway store at Reagan National Airport. It was at Charlie Chiang Kwai that Lee learned the basics of running a food establishment. He cemented his restaurant knowledge at Oceanaire, where he worked under Chef Rob Klink who trained him both on the managerial and culinary side of the food business. In 2006, Lee and his mother decided to open their own restaurant, one that played to their strengths and represented their culinary traditions and culture. They opened Mandu's first location near Dupont Circle in November 2006 and five years later, the second one in DC's Mount Vernon Triangle neighborhood.   Mandu has won “Best Korean” in the Washington City Paper annually since 2010 in addition to being featured in several local and national publications.  Mandu was also recognized as a recommended restaurant in the Michelin Guide's premier Washington, DC issue in 2016 and again in 2017. In the Fall of 2016, Lee and his mother were invited to London to showcase a Korean tasting menu for a two week Mandu residency at Carousel Restaurant. In 2017, Lee started a new restaurant group with Andrew Kim and Chef Scott Drewno, called The Fried Rice Collective.  The group's first restaurant, CHIKO, opened in July of 2017 on Barrack's Row in Washington, DC. CHIKO serves modern Chinese and Korean cuisine in a fun and casual environment.   CHIKO immediately garnered local and national interest upon opening, including being named one of Washingtonian Magazine's Best New Restaurants of 2017 with a three star rating.  The Washington Post also featured CHIKO in their 2017 Fall Dining Guide as one of the top ten restaurants in the city with the Post's food critic, Tom Sietsema, giving CHIKO a rating of three stars.  In 2018, CHIKO was a semi-finalist for Best New Restaurant in the country by the James Beard Award Foundation. Lee has been featured in several national and local publications, such as the Wall Street Journal, Men's Health, Lucky Peach, Washington Post, Washingtonian, and many more. IN this episode, we talk about his path to success. Enjoy!   EPISODE 27:     Welcome to Season 2 of The Chef Rock Xperiment.

This is a black arts and culture site. We will be exploring the African Diaspora via the writing, performance, both musical and theatrical (film and stage), as well as the visual arts of Africans in the Diaspora and those influenced by these aesthetic forms of expression. I am interested in the political and social ramifications of art on society, specifically movements supported by these artists and their forebearers. It is my claim that the artists are the true revolutionaries, their work honest and filled with raw unedited passion. They are our true heroes. Ashay! 1.
