    Buzzy Cohen | A Jeopardy! Champion's Guide to Preparing for the Moments that Matter

    Tens of thousands of people take the online qualification exam for Jeopardy! every year. But only 0.4% of hopefuls will appear on the show. But even after a nine-game winning streak and a victory in the Tournament of Champions, Jeopardy! champion and fan favorite Buzzy Cohen maintains that he wasn’t actually the smartest contestant in the bunch – he just “trained smarter" than his competitors. Buzzy adopted quirky strategies and obsessive techniques, from wearing suits every day to studying while hanging from a chin-up bar. Once he realized how much could be accomplished with great preparation, he became a prep fanatic – testing his theories on everything from deadlifting to tap dancing.  Buzzy joins Google to discuss his Audible Original book, “Get Ready: A Champion’s Guide to Preparing for the Moments That Matter". He reveals the eccentric yet effective training method he developed to prepare for the show, and empowers listeners to apply these techniques to train for their own challenges.

    Noor Murad | Dishes & Stories From My Middle East

    There’s a building in North London, built from equal parts brick and tahini, with walls coated in olive oil and floors stained with spice. This is the Ottolenghi Test Kitchen, where a group of individuals meet and eat, cook and write, tear and share and gather with just one motive: to create good food with good ingredients, and to share it with the world. Chef and author Noor Murad joined the Ottolenghi Test Kitchen in 2018, eventually becoming its head and the writer of its books, “Shelf Love” and “Extra Good Things.” Bahrain-born, London-based and New York-trained, Noor’s own recipes have been featured in the New York Times, and she’s cooked on BBC's Saturday Kitchen. Her Middle Eastern roots have a strong influence on her cooking, with Arabic, Indian, and Persian flavors making a prominent appearance in her recipes. Noor joins Google to discuss her book “Lugma: Abundant Dishes & Stories from my Middle East.” Lugma is an Arabic word that means, “a bite.” The book offers over 100 recipes as an ode to the food she grew up eating—traditional flavors and modern dishes from Bahrain, the surrounding Middle East, and beyond.
