    Indigenous Foodways for the Future

    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! In this episode we explore some of the ways indigenous communities are revitalizing ancestral foodways and centering them in contemporary conversations about cuisine. Focused in the American Southwest, our reporters explore a Navajo farm producing culturally appropriate baby foods, a restaurant collectively run by the 19 Pueblos of New Mexico, and a restaurant/online indigenous marketplace based in Denver. Further Reading: Check out the menu at Indian Pueblo Kitchen, and plan a visit to the Indian Pueblo Cultural Center. Aside from a supervisor at Indian Pueblo Kitchen, Channing Concho is also the drummer for Suspended, an all-female metal band. You can find their music here!

  7. True to Self: Authenticity Redefined

    True to Self: Authenticity Redefined

    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.
