This week is allllll about women owned, small biz with the ladies who invented Salad Sprinkles. How did these college bffs spark of an idea get made AND end up on shelves around the country?! Jordan & Blakely give us all the details in creating a food product, trials & marketing to getting it out in the world. But also....Lala gushes the glory of a heated Japanese toilet seat, we talk how important social media is in small business and play a rousing game of TOSS MY SALAD in this super fun epsiode.

Two of our besties on the pod today? Hell YES. We reach peak NYC STEAK talk with 2 members of STEAK CLUB. Yes, we have a steak club. Let us tell you all about it. What makes a steakhouse great? The vibe? The servers? The food alone? Watch us get drunk, (yes, it's one to watch on Youtube) as we learn so much about our best friends during a rousing game of NEVER HAVE I EVER....Colin hates wine bars, Judith isn't a dessert person, Lucy loves dimsum and Lala...well tune in to find out. Colin also knows a guy with a limo, jus sayin'....

This week, we are in the studio with the one and only, Andy Ricker. Michelin & James Beard award winning chef, author and entrepreneurial badass, Andy talks the beginnings of his Pok Pok empire to deciding to shut it all down. We discuss his previous dreams of making it as a musician to how he first discovered his love for Thai flavors through a mushroom soup. Join us on the journey to now, how Andy is continuing to amplify thai cooking and learn about the current chefs moving Thai cuisine forward.
