    Ep. 72 "There's a Feast in Freetown"

    Moral and Carl take a deep dive into Finding Edna Lewis, a beautifully crafted documentary that uncovers the extraordinary life of Edna Lewis — the Unionville, VA native who became one of the most influential voices in American cooking. More than just a chef, Lewis was a cultural icon who celebrated Southern foodways, Black heritage, and the power of seasonal, farm-to-table cooking long before it was a trend. Listen as the team reflects on how the film honors her legacy and explores the deeper themes of memory, food, land, and identity that rise to the surface. Shoutout to community leader Duron Chavis for continuing the work of preserving Black agricultural and food traditions in Richmond and beyond. Edna Lewis’s most beloved books include: The Taste of Country Cooking In Pursuit of Flavor The Edna Lewis Cookbook The Gift of Southern Cooking (with Scott Peacock)
