He found that fried chicken made him rethink everything.Johnny Spero of Bar Spero in Washington D.C. told the story of finding success with his Georgetown restaurant, Reverie, but then being met with catastrophe when it burned down. He emphasized not giving up on your passion and being sure to stop and feel your feelings.Yajaira Gonzalez of Pop and Pour in Washington Heights spoke about her business surviving the pandemic.

She told the crowd that believed that her location and community kept her going while she was in business. The timing of the pandemic and the need to prioritize her personal life helped her make the decision to permanently close the restaurant, however. She said she thinks anyone considering the restaurant industry should take a deep look at what they really want before jumping in.Heritage Radio Network is a listener supported nonprofit podcast network.

Fish and seafood are the only kind of commonly consumed animal protein that are still caught in the wild.

On this episode of Tech Bites, host Jennifer Leuzzi talks with Emily Peck, a plant-based chef, and nutritionist on the CookUnity platform.

The global pandemic has restricted and eliminated the in-person experiences the hospitality industry relies upon to survive. Many are turning to virtual events as a way to continue to engage their customers and create new revenue streams. A successful virtual event can open up a geographic market far beyond a local customer base, while offering the same intimate experience to every  single person, whether the audience is 10 or 100,000. On this episode of The Big Food Question, Tech Bites host Jennifer Leuzzi answers the question, How do you produce successful virtual events?  With expert advice from  David Bengali theatre and media production designer, Belinda Chang sommelier, and Kristin Madden, Vice President of Bowen & Company.  Have a question you want answered?

With restaurants working around constantly shifting COVID-19 regulations, it is more important than ever that all staff and stakeholders understand the current requirements. In this episode, guest host Jennifer Leuzzi talks to Rachael Nemeth, the CEO and co-founder of Opus Training. According to Rachael, nearly all training program technology is built for the desk-worker sitting in front of a computer. Opus has developed a platform purpose-built for training restaurant workers, which they've retooled to handle COVID-19 training. Check out Tech Bites, Jenn's show on food and technology (Apple Podcasts | Stitcher | Spotify | RSS).Have a question you want answered?

For this week's episode of the Futurum Tech Podcast, host Shelly Kramer is joined by Sarah Wallace and Ron Westfall. In our Main Dive discussion, they talked about Zoho, Zoom, Cisco, Intel, Amazon, Microsoft, Google, and other tech brands who are doing good in tough times.   From Cisco offering free Webex licenses to employees working from home to Zoom offering K-12 schools the use of its video conference platform for free, tech companies are stepping up and doing what they can to help businesses, schools, workers, teachers, students, and communities stay connected and try to keep moving forward in uncertain times brought on by the coronavirus COVID-19 pandemic. Some other notable moves from tech companies include:   Zoho has made its comprehensive suite of business software applications available by way of its Small Business Emergency Subscription Assistance Program (ESAP) to help existing customers with 25 employees or less by waiting the cost of the applications these companies are currently using for up to three months.   Intel's CEO Bob Swan has made it crystal clear the company intends to be a part of the solution for COVID-19, and that they are working in myriad ways across the country to do just that. As just two examples, Intel teamed with Lenovo and BGI Genomics in China to accelerate research and diagnostics and is also working with customers and partners to facilitate and expedite virtual learning among communities with the greatest needs.   Amazon created a $5 million relief fund to aid small businesses in the Seattle area, which has since been extended nationwide, and the company is hiring thousands of drivers to help meet the needs of its ecommerce site at a time when home deliveries have never been more popular. Apple has created a $15 million fund to help investigate and find other ways to counter coronavirus, testing, and supplies, and Dell's CEO Michael Dell has warned that if you were spending time in the last few weeks partying on beaches or gathering in other ways rather than practicing social distancing as advised, that you had best not apply for a job at Dell.   Broadband companies (AT&T, Verizon, T-Mobile and others) are waiving late fees, not charging overage fees, removing data caps and throttling, and opening up Wi-Fi spots to help spur connectivity.   Microsoft Research (in partnership with the Allen Institute, the White House, and others) has made the COVID-19 Open Research Dataset (CORD-19) a repository of more than 29,000 scholarly articles on the coronavirus family from around the world available, including machine-readable research from more than 13,000 articles, and Google.org has made a $1 million contribution to facilitate online learning.   These are just a handful of the tech companies stepping up to do good in very difficult times, and it's encouraging to see those who can, do. Keep it up, friends in tech.   THIS WEEK's FAST FIVE Intel CEO Letter. To kick off the Fast Five segment of our show, Ron covered Intel Chief Bob Swan's letter to customers and partners outlining the company's commitment to doing everything in its power to help be a part of the solution for COVID-19. Internet Usage Surges — With No End in Sight. Industry Giants Reduce Streaming Quality in Effort to Reduce Strain on Networks in the EU. Security and Privacy in a Pandemic. Ron took us on a quick dive into the importance of certification in assuring secure networks during a worldwide public safety and health crisis.   This Week's Tech Bites Winner: For the Tech Bites portion of our show, we covered the irony of Facebook establishing a Coronavirus Information Center and how difficult it is, at least for us, to trust Facebook in any way to curate and disseminate the “best” information on the net about COVID-19. Trust is earned, and Facebook? Hasn't earned a bit. We also touched on Facebook being overwhelmed by a lack of staff and using AI to moderate content and stretching the company to its limits, as personified by thousands of users receiving notifications this past week that content they shared was disallowed. Interesting, and ironic, how Facebook is in some ways an integral part of how we communicate on a daily or weekly basis, yet so largely not trusted by the majority. And deservedly so.   Our Crystal Ball:  For the Crystal Ball portion of our show we circle back to the coronavirus COVID-19 outbreak, and talk about what we think is next and/or ahead.   INFORMATION: This Futurum Podcast features Shelly Kramer (@ShellylKramer), Sarah Wallace (@sarah_wallace) and Ron Westfall (@SirRonSolicon).  If you haven't already, please subscribe to our show on iTunes or SoundCloud.

Is CES better called ‘The Connected Ecosystem'? Our thoughts on that, the good and the bad about AI dominating this year's show, highlights from Intel, and Deeplite and more. THIS WEEK's FAST FIVE > CPU-based edge AI > State of the Fitness Tracker Market > What Deeplite's up to > Andes Technology > The exciting things to expect from Android in 2020 This week's Tech Bites Winner: For the Tech Bites portion of our show, we cover weirdness from Teen Vogue. Business insider reported that Teen Vogue posted a well-polished and positive piece on how Facebook is “securing” the 2020 elections. It looks like sponsored content. It smells like sponsored content. It is sponsored content. At least Teen Vogue says it was sponsored content by posting a note at the top of the article. Facebook then denies it, saying the article is not sponsored content. Then it changes course and says, oh wait, we guess it was sponsored content. And then, Teen Vogue deletes the entire story. Get it together, Teen Vogue. We expect more from you. Our Crystal Ball: We circle back to CES and our predictions on what the main technology or technology category will be for the 2021 show. Without hesitation, all three of us have an answer … you'll have to listen to the show to find out what it is!
