Episode 72 - Korean American by Eric Kim

Hello and welcome to episode 72 of Tasty Pages, a podcast by Cooking The Books! We (eventually) discuss 'Korean American' by Eric Kim. Once we get a little small talk out of the way (ugly running shoes, National Sweatpants Day and clothing purchased with rewards earned from smoking cigarettes), we dive right into the important stuff: found lottery winnings, dirty chai martinis and some drama over at our Instagram account. You know, the same old rambling conversation between us that you've grown to appreciate! We also recommend a new television series we would consider "food adjacent". Our show question is: What food do you prefer to make at home, instead of order at a restaurant? Our "Gastro Obscura" feature this week takes us to Denmark as we discuss a ritual honoring unmarried adults with spices! Lastly, Johnny shares a kid-friendly joke that fails to win over Victoria. There's also a good "easter egg" reward for those who listen until the very end of the episode! You can purchase this book here.
