Alright, you know I don't usually cross-pollinate, but I produce the podcast at my day job and this week's podcast features Michael Ruhlman, author of The Reach of a Chef. That's my squeaky voice doing the intro. I conducted the interview with him, but I've edited out my squeaky questions. He also reads a passage from the book. The whole thing is about 25 minutes long. It was really fun to talk to him. He's quite tall and handsome in a sunny, San Diego way (I know he's from Cleveland, people, don't write me letters).
One of the things I edited out for time constraint is an interesting bit in which he says, "I just had, you know, coddled eggs there [at Balthazar] the other day...that's beautiful food, that's every bit as beautiful as the finest plate coming out of the French Laundry, as Keller himself would admit freely." Oooooh, snap!
Anyway, check it out. Download it as an mp3 or, even better, subscribe in iTunes so I can prove that people are actually listening to my podcasts. They cut the check that pays the rent around here. A little job security couldn't hurt.
