Episode 105: American Chinese Food with Edgar Momplaisir
“Blue zones” (it’s not political), Adventists vs heavy drinkers, cheap meat, and tomfoolery at the New York Times with Edgar Momplaisir. I propose that American Chinese is just one region of Chinese food, and we talk about the HBO show Deadwood a surprising amount. (Listen here.)
Music: Dance, Dance, Fall Out Boy
