Cheap Date on Heritage Radio

I was a (delighted) guest yesterday on Cathy Erway's "Cheap Date" radio show on Heritage Radio, which is located in an eco-decked-out shipping container in the garden of Roberta's Pizza in Bushwick Brooklyn. Just above it is a roof garden that Alice Waters helped to build.

Have you been listening to the Heritage Radio Network? Me neither, and have we been missing out! You can find it on iTunes or just click on shows straight from their site. You can even click a word from their tag fray, or search a word, and listen to shows with that word in it — even the exact part of the show with that word in it. Very helpfully, each 30-minute show is broken down into two parts, with all topics of the conversation helpfully written down as tags. Gone is any cause to miss even a moment of talk about what it is that suits your fancy.

Cathy, her friend Matt (she likes it to be a boy/girl show) and I talked about cooking at home with and for the person you love, sharing a kitchen with roommates, hangover huevos rancheros, cheap but delicious ideas for pasta, wooing the one you love by washing the dishes, and a whole lot more. You can give a listen right here.

Know the other great thing about being interviewed in a funny shipping container outside of one of New York's best pizzerias? That's right, and it was wood-fired. Just above the below photo of the adorable Cathy is The Good Girl — kale, garlic, taleggio, and Berkshire pork. I'm telling, you, people: RUN, DON'T WALK!

After you've listened to me and Cathy (did I mention that all you have to do is click right here?...) you may want to tune into "Catch It, Cook It, Eat It" with Ben Sargent, otherwise known as the Brooklyn Chowder Surfer, otherwise known as the Special Guest of "The Gastronomy of Marriage" Launch Party. Or this episode of "Hot Grease," in which Liz Thorpe's "The Cheese Chronicles" is mentioned in a top five list of what's on fire, along with the handsome Dante and his delicious Milk Thistle milk. Happy listening.
