Podcast Overview

edacious (e·da·cious – /iˈdāSHəs/ – adjective. Of, relating to, or given to eating. From the Latin edere, to eat. Synonyms: voracious – gluttonous – ravenous – greedy – piggish.) How do you stay passionate for your chosen profession? How do you stay hungry for your life when the obstacles seem to outweigh the triumphs? How do you stay EDACIOUS? Once a month we will explore this topic while eating great local food. Because everything happens when you break bread together. This is a podcast for anyone ravenous about what they do or looking to be that way. Let's allow REAL conversation to develop, so we can talk, laugh, commiserate, and CONNECT. By fostering connection, we celebrate our bounty and create community. Edacious podcast, a true Connection Initiative. Nae Libby is a writer of fiction, travel, essay, and food. She's obsessed with vintage cookbooks and diners, adores brunch with cocktails, prefers barefoot picnics to fine dining, and believes biscuits with honey to be a cure-all. Her spirit animals are Larry Bly and Laban Johnson from the legendary show, "Cookin' Cheap". She is not a chef or a foodie. Just someone who loves to cook, eat, travel, and write about it all. Hopefully, she won't piss off too many people. But then that wouldn't be any fun, would it?

123 - Carrie Neal Walden, Ben's Friends. In an industry dedicated to service, how do we help each other?

Maybe the most important podcast I've ever produced. Addiction in restaurant culture. In an environment whose very premise is dedicated to serving others, how do we take care of ourselves without the emotional blankets of alcohol, drugs, sex, work, shopping, chaos, rage, you name it? How do we help each other remove those blankets and begin to feel and work through the complicated feelings that come with running and working in the food industry? How do we help our own? Ben's Friends is figuring it out. My conversation with Carrie Neal Walden of the Atlanta Chapter confirms we absolutely need this in Charlottesville. Sooner rather than later and you guys know why. No need to spell it out, if you know what I mean, you know what I mean. If you don't? Ask your local food industry professional, because until we start talking about addiction in restaurant culture, it will not get better. Our discussion topics are listed below. Also stay tuned for my very biased and giggly review of our local AquaFloat facility. It's pretty fucking epic and a much better tool than that after work shift drink. Addiction is a chronic disease, but if you have the right toolbox full of stuff, and some community that understands, it becomes just one more facet of the shiny diamond you are. Be well my friends. Big Love. Chaos. It's the new cocaine. Living in the present. Be here now. Don't "catastrophize" and predict a horrible future. You know how addiction ends. How about trying the other story? Aren't you curious? It's okay to say no and offer an alternative instead of saying yes all the time. It's okay to say yes, but not right this minute. Is restaurant culture different from other job cultures? Is it an Island of Misfit Toys? Setting boundaries. Parenting yourself. Restaurant culture and its peculiar habits, some that still exist. Why Ben's Friends is NOT AA. At all. A group of restaurant people that want to get and stay sober and they want to help other folks do the same. Not anonymous. Round table open-discussion format. Once a week meetings in 16 cities. Topic based peer-support discussion. What do you do if you're 2 weeks sober but your friends aren't? What boundaries do you set for yourself? What other industries could this model translate to? Handling your shit. To live sober, you've got to have connection. Anthony Bourdain Sean Brock Mocktails Food delivery system impacts everyone. We're all a hot mess. Shame is a useless emotion. Take it and turn it into something to help another person. It'll make you feel better. Sober Curious. What is it? Perception and Awareness. Being able to look at yourself from outside yourself.

122 - Blue Plate Special, Self Care vs. Consumer Care.

Welcome to Episode 122! No guest this time because all y’all are running around like crazy people anyway. Putting up greenery and buying shit because you think if you don’t get Aunt Gladys a singing gingerbread man, she’ll give you the stink eye. You know what? She will anyway, save your money. DO YOURSELF this holiday. I see your gutter minds you dirty birdies, but I ain’t talking about bedroom eyes under the mistletoe. I’m talking about expectations and perceptions. What would YOU do if Christmas was the way YOU wanted it and not the way you THINK you wanted it? You’re allowed to do that you know. Pretend your life is a movie and you’re playing the part of you and if you win the Academy Award this year, that mythical SELF LOVE will finally materialize and throw itself about you like a fabulous new cashmere shawl. Why not? Nothing else has worked to this point. Or maybe it has but just hasn’t lasted long enough for you to notice. In any case, treating self-care as a game, and a movie and a pretend play, where you try out shit and see what works, is a damn sight better option than buying a bunch of bath bombs and wine. Your mind is occupied and OMG you might even have a little fun while you’re trying to fix that voice inside which says if you don’t have potato rolls on the table for Christmas, your neighbor will think you’re a whore. We talk about that in this episode. Take it easy my friends. No one is behind you with a clipboard ticking off your every imagined failing. You’re fine. We’re all a mess. Big Love. http://edacious.co/122
