Ep. 41: Are Austin crawfish boils controversial?

Are crawfish spring’s most perfect communal meal, or are they too much work for too little payoff? We discuss the growing number of crawfish boils in Central Texas, why even upscale restaurants and wineries are getting in on this trend and how much is too much to charge for what has always been a food for the people. ALSO: Why are 11 women, some who have never distance-cycled before, pedaling 1,700 miles from Seattle to San Diego this summer? Savannah Nauwelaers and Grace Pfeffer tell us about how a coffee conversation about sex trafficking inspired this epic Pedal the Pacific bicycle journey, which started last year and raised more than $60,000 for the Refuge, a 48-bed facility to serve survivors of the sex trafficking industry in Texas. PLUS: Jon Chamberlain was a stay-at-home dad for four years before he started Shutterbugs, a kids’ photography studio where young Austinites learn photo basics and the art of saying yes to their creative selves. And in "A Toast," we recommend a re-watch of “Felicity,” the new movie “Tully,” and the Tarot-inspired live experience “Performance Park" at the Vortex.
