George Motz & Crush Club

Darin welcomes back one of our first guests, George Motz, for a long overdue chat on Snacky Tunes. George, aka the Burger Scholar, shares many delicious tales about what he’s been up to for the last decade, including the launch of his new book, The Great American Burger Book, the opening of his new restaurant, Hamburger America, and how his TV show, Burger Land, still stands up today.  Then it’s a trip to the archives when Brooklyn pop dance duo, Crush Club, cruised into the studio and got us groovin' with a live performance. Wielding funk, house and Latin-style percussion influences, the band garnered a strong following with popular singles like "Louder" and "We Dance." They talked to us in depth about dance lyrics, and the all important bass bod.Snacky Tunes: Music is the Main Ingredient, Chefs and Their Music (Phaidon), is now on shelves at bookstores around the world.
