Preserving Generational Cuisine with Matthew Yee
<p>Matthew Yee is a food scientist and chef and the founder of Queenies, a really cool conceptual traveling culinary pop that takes the comforts of his Chinese and Jewish background to create meaningful connections with people in real-time.

Empathy as a Superpower with Faraz Zaidi
<p>Faraz Zaidi is the founder and creative director of Profound, a luxury streetwear brand. We recorded this episode during Ramadan (April 2023) and I was thinking of holding it until the next Ramadan but I think there are a lot of really interesting concepts we cover that will be valuable for people of all backgrounds.</p> <p><br></p> <p>We reflect really deeply on the benefits of abstaining from many of life's temptations and how the month-long reset fuels so much beauty, introspection, and gratitude for the community. </p> <p><br></p> <p>We discuss Zaidi's superpower which is empathy – he's such a sweet and kind soul who has a creative vision for not only clothing, apparel, home goods, and the world but the way he thinks about things is really unique. We also dig into compartmentalizing life's intricacies, reframing burnout, and what it's like to manage our time and energy in productive ways.</p> <p><br></p> <p>Recorded at Spotify Labs in Brooklyn.

Food & Friends with Anna Polonsky
Anna Polonsky is the founder and creative director of Polonsky & Friends, a strategy and design studio for those who use food as a beacon for community. Polonsky also co-founded The Deligram, an editorial storefront spotlighting artisan food and its makers. We explore Polonsky's unique story which starts in France and builds depth and scale in New York at the intersection of food, brand, and hospitality. Meandering through the magic of food–a common thread in her family and upbringing–we dig into Polonsky's learnings working closely with restaurants, developers, brands, restaurateurs, and chefs to tell the nuanced stories only food can provide. Anna shares her path to an accidental entrepreneur and the daily practices she's picked up along the way to complement her lifestyle which is reflective of her personal style. Recorded at Spotify Labs in Brooklyn. Produced by Jarell Perry. Artwork by Julian Alexander. Music by Abjo.
