| Legacy in the Glass: Black Joy, Wine, and the Communities We Build | 24 avr. 2025 | 00:34:01 | |
In this episode, we uncork a different kind of wine story—one rooted in joy, land, and legacy. From a biodiverse vineyard in the Midwest to a Black-owned Prosecco brand in South Carolina, we meet the innovators reshaping the wine world on their own terms. You’ll hear from Krista Scruggs of ZAFA Wines, Justin Wages of Don Luchi Prosecco, sommelier LaShea Delaney, and Cecilia Cuff of Bronzeville Winery, as they share what it means to cultivate not just grapes, but community. Together, they’re building ecosystems—on the land and in the industry—that defy tradition and reimagine who wine is for.

| From the Pantry: The Cult of Chef Ep 2 | 23 avr. 2025 | 00:28:20 | |
In episode two of The Cult of Chef, producer Hannah Chouinard digs into the reality of workplace abuse in food service and argues that focusing on the people in positions of power comes at a cost to everyone else who makes a restaurant run. Through interviews and features from Julia Moskin, Reem Assil, and Saru Jayaraman, she finds that the media’s disinterest in workers’ issues has enabled abuse. She calls on journalists and writers to expand their ideas about what makes a compelling story, noting that toxic systems are bad for everyone, including the chefs they privilege.

| Fight for Your Greens: Cultural Preservation, Environmental Regulation & Water Spinach | 17 avr. 2025 | 00:23:57 | |
In this episode, we’re breaking format, and serving you up an audio-documentary-style entree. Our producer, Hieu Huynh takes us to her home state of Georgia, where she’s examining how water spinach has become a unifying force for the Vietnamese community – a symbol of resilience, adaptation, and the ongoing negotiation between cultural heritage and the environment. Though not as well-known as bok choy or chinese broccoli, this vegetable is a staple in many Asian cuisines, and in Vietnamese cooking in particular. It’s also on the USDA’s noxious plant list… and is considered a “plant pest” in Georgia. In true Meaty fashion, Hieu’s exploration into this complex relationship of power, identity, and privilege, ultimately asks, “What happens when upholding foodways comes into conflict with the laws of the land?”

| From Roots to Routes, Abundance All Around Us | 27 mars 2025 | 00:21:21 | |
How does food bind us to the land we call home? From pecan groves in Georgia to the datil peppers of St. Augustine, in today’s episode we explore how Indigenous plants—both wild and cultivated—help us forge deeper connections to the land and the people around us. The stories shared in this episode come from the unceded, occupied lands currently known as the United States. We recognize the profound and enduring connection that Indigenous peoples have to these lands, and how their stewardship has shaped the food systems and traditions that continue to nourish and sustain us. We honor their wisdom and amplify their voices to reclaim and preserve their traditional foodways, supporting their sovereignty and resilience in the process.

| We’re Road Trippin’ | 07 nov. 2024 | 00:22:56 | |
Every meal tells a story, but what stories do they weave when you’re on a journey across the country? You’ll just have to tune in to find out. Today we’re serving up 10 delicious sides as we learn of the bites and places that bring joy, frustration, and love to the team at Meat and Three as we head on a road trip of sorts. The final destination? You’ll just have to listen and find out, but we’ll give you a hint - Elvis, Vegas, and Taco Bell. Get comfy, get your snacks and let’s hit the road!
Hey listeners, In light of the current- and frankly ongoing- political landscape -, we here at Meat and Three want to share a moment with you before we get into our Season 17 opener. A moment to take a deep breath together, and acknowledge and stand in solidarity with the communities across the country– and world– that are being attacked with not only hateful rhetoric, but harmful policy making. While it’s easy to give into fear and isolation, we want to encourage you to find strength in those around you, and to join together in resistance not only to survive, but to thrive. Our greatest strength is our love for each other and our ability to come together in the face of facism. Meet us in the margins. And please, rest. We have joy, we have community, and we will always have tomorrow. Together. With love, The Meat and Three Community

| Indigenous Foodways for the Future | 02 août 2024 | 00:29:14 | |
Description: In order to honor indigenous foodways and culture, we need to start talking about them in the present tense. Let’s look to the future in order to dismantle a colonial past!

| True to Self: Authenticity Redefined | 27 juin 2024 | 00:20:33 | |
When we first began reporting this episode, we wanted to tell stories about foods, drinks, and experiences that fall outside what is typically considered “authentic.” We coined the term “purposefully IN-authentic” and ran with it until we couldn’t run any further. What we found instead is that choosing the road less traveled because it is the road that feels most true, might be the most exemplary form of authenticity. From entire cuisines, to community practices, to individual choices, to specific places (uh-um, Margaritaville), this episode celebrates a new definition of authenticity: commitment, genuineness and unabashed ingenuity.
Further Reading: Listen to Meat and Three Episode 192, Identity Crisis: Authenticity in a Changing Food Landscape, to hear this season’s initial discussion about the effects of narratives of authenticity in our foodways.

| The Great Meat and Three Debunk-isode | 06 juin 2024 | 00:22:51 | |
Food and debate are a natural pairing. Whether it’s politics at the dinner table, check paying privileges, or how rare you’d like your ribeye, a meal can bring out fiery passions and strong opinions. But, have you considered that your opinions could just be wrong? This week, we're diving deep into the world of food myths and setting the record straight. We’ll be tackling sushi sexism, demystifying MSG, defending the Wisconsin Old Fashioned, and breaking down skin contact wine.
Further Reading: Visit Chefs Peggi Ince-Whiting and Addison Austin-Lou at Kyoto Japanese Restaurant in Salt Lake City! For more on female sushi chefs, check out this article from Financial Times, and listen to this episode of HRN’s very own Japan Eats! You can find Dr. Debbie Fetter’s blog dedicated to breaking down hot topics and myths in nutrition here! You can find the original 1995 FDA-commissioned report on MSG here, the 2007 Honheim consensus from Europe here (note that MSG falls under “added-as-flavor” glutamate measurements), and the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) 2017 evaluation of additive glutamic acid–glutamates here. The following links are two meta analyses on MSG studies, discussing results, issues of applicability to human subjects, and more. Meta Analysis 1 Meta Analysis 2 For a comprehensive history of MSG, and a multifaceted critical analysis of its use in industrial food production, take a look at Dr. Sarah Tracey’s 2016 thesis, Delicious: A History of Monosodium Glutamate and Umami, the Fifth Taste Sensation. Dr. Tracey’s collaboration with TedEd is an excellent sample of some ideas within the paper. For another ode to the Wisconsin Old Fashioned, take a look at Toby Cecchini’s personal essay in the New Yorker, dedicated to the cocktail. For more on the makings, history and flavors of orange wine, listen to this episode of Natural Disasters from the HRN archives.

| Identity Crisis: Authenticity in a Changing Food Landscape | 30 mai 2024 | 00:23:13 | |
Today, we’re unraveling one of food’s biggest buzzwords to see what lies beneath. Authenticity conveys meaning, tradition, and truth wherever it’s invoked, but is it always as important as we seem to think it is? From biotechnology's influence on traditional cuisine to personal reflections from international chefs, we explore the bounds of authenticity’s usefulness as a concept. Then, we go deep on the social dimensions of culinary narratives and their misuse in the case of terroir and the Algerian wine industry to learn about what happens when our desire for authenticity gets co-opted into something more sinister. Further Reading: Listen to Dr. Lauren Crossland-Marr speak more about authenticity, CRISPR and her work in Italy on these Gastronomica episodes: Episode 38 and Episode 25. For more information about how CRISPR may affect our foodways, listen to Lauren’s podcast, A CRISPR Bite. Find Lauren’s article about conversations circulating on Twitter about CRISPR here.

| The Bittersweet History of Pralines | 23 mai 2024 | 00:37:07 | |
Pralines, a sweet concoction of sugar, butter, and pecans, are more than just a staple of New Orleans cuisine. They carry with them a rich legacy of adaptation and survival, embodying the spirit of a city known for its resilience. This episode delves into the bittersweet history of pralines, revealing their deep connections to the legacy of slavery, the innovative spirit of African American women, and the enduring fight for freedom and equality. In this episode of Meat and Three, Taylor Early is joined by HRN Fellow Jessica Gingrich, a journalist and food historian who has spent the past 3 years reporting on the intertwined histories of pralines, systemic injustice, and the Angola 3. Central to this story is Robert King, a member of the Angola 3, who spent decades in solitary confinement at Angola Prison. King's journey from his grandmother's kitchen to making pralines in prison highlights the power of the human spirit in the face of unimaginable circumstances. In addition to King’s story, this episode delves into the broader history and cultural significance of pralines, tracing their origins from the kitchens of enslaved African American women to modern-day entrepreneurship. Food historian Dr. Zella Palmer provides insights into how pralines became a source of empowerment for Black women, despite discriminatory practices. Additionally, we examine the brutal realities of forced labor in Louisiana's prison system are examined through the firsthand account of prison rights activist Kiana Calloway, who discusses the harsh conditions at Angola Prison and the broader implications of prison labor on our food systems.

| You’ve Got (Voice)Mail | 09 mai 2024 | 00:20:12 | |
A food memory is never just the meal itself. It’s the people who cooked it, the chatter around the table, the distance traveled and time waited just to taste this food. Today, we’re serving up a smorgasbord of experiences from each member of the Meat and Three team. From fresh-squeezed juice in Mexico City to the late-night fast food haunts of competitive swing dancers, we’ve got messages from the whole team on the food they love, and the places that make that food come alive with meaning.

| You Are What You Eat | 25 avr. 2024 | 00:18:57 | |
Cooking a meal is often compared to creating a work of art. From the recipes that inspire you, to your palette of spices, to the smells and tastes that stir up emotions, all of it comes together on an edible canvas as an expression of the inner self. It’s no wonder so many cultures deeply intertwine food with identity. To explore this connection, we’re revisiting Meat and Three stories with our brand new interns. We’ll be talking about our loyalty to grocery store chains, the past and future of soul food, nostalgia for Jewish deli dinners, and the little moments in the kitchen which shape us. Further Reading: To hear more about food cults, check out the original M+3 episode with Benjamin Lorr here.

| Planting IS Power: Preserving Food Sovereignty | 18 avr. 2024 | 00:17:46 | |
Food sovereignty foregrounds all of our conversations on Meat and Three. If communities are unable to feed themselves freely, safely and sustainably, food cultures can not thrive. From seed banks preserving Indigenous crops, to Israeli control of Palestinian food systems, we kickstart our 16th season by revisiting stories from the Meat and Three archives that center food sovereignty as imperative to maintaining diverse, nourishing food cultures.

| Breaking Boundaries, Breaking Bonds | 21 mars 2024 | 00:23:52 | |
This week on HRN we are examining how folks are changing the world of food and how food has always been a part of changing the world. We are traveling through space and time to bring stories of trailblazers and revolutionaries–those who are truly breaking bonds. First, we reflect on how the Persian diasporic community is connecting to cuisine in the context of the women-led revolution underway in Iran. We also hear about how a group of women banana workers in Latin America have transformed their unions. Next, we travel to Japan to hear how one sushi chef is carving out space for women in a male-dominated industry. Finally, we hear how a group of Black chefs in the Netherlands feed their community and beyond while raising awareness about the history of enslavement. If you are hungry for inspiration come and listen! Further Reading: You can find Dana Frank’s book Bananeras: Women Transforming the Banana Unions of Latin America here.

| Eating Outside the Norm | 23 oct. 2023 | 00:22:55 | |
In this episode of Meat and Three, we are trying to move beyond western medical definitions, and thinking outside the box to better understand disordered eating. Disordered eating has a history of visibility as a negative disease, and largely impacting a small population. Historically, young, white women and girls are depicted in the media and in literature with eating disorders. However, the phenomenon of disordered eating, which we’re using here to mean “eating outside of the norm” contains far more nuance in who and how it is actually experienced. We’re diving into the nuance soup to explore what a Girl Dinner is and could mean, a medical anthropologist's perspective on intuitive eating, and the impact of fad diets and social media on our collective psyches.

Then, we talk to an expert on pay-what-you-can restaurants on the role of such establishments in the fight against food insecurity. Oftentimes, the ways we pay for our food goes unquestioned yet these guests prompt us to reimagine paying for our meals to better support the dignity of workers and eaters alike. This week teaches us that a few dollars can make a big difference. Join us next week to talk about big money as we explore the role of banking and finance in the food industry.

| Real and Immeasurable: An Exploration of Intangibility and Authenticity | 06 avr. 2023 | 00:33:00 | |
Debates around what’s traditional or authentic are constantly spinning in the culinary world— so much so that numerous organizations have been formed to protect the authenticity of various dishes and production methods. In Mezcal’s case, there is an organization whose name translates to The Mexican Regulatory Council for the Quality of Mezcal. The stated purpose of this group, and others like it, is to uphold quality through strict regulations and guidelines. But how do these regulations potentially push people out? This week on Meat and Three, we’re unpacking the meaning of authenticity in the culinary world. We explore the pressure authenticity can have on individuals and how there may be more than one “right” version of the way to cook a dish. Further Reading: Learn more about researcher Kathleen Ja Sook Bergquist here. Jenny Herman is a doctoral fellow in the Cultural Studies department at KU Leuven in Belgium.
