Making Nostalgia and Immersion Profitable w/ Jimmy Wong

On this week’s menu: we’re discussing real life adaptations of games and anime…food! From Calcifer’s Breakfast in Howl’s Moving Castle to Minecraft cake, the true impact of a game or show can be felt literally in our stomach as hunger pains. The desire to eat these foods in “IRL” has led to lucrative business opportunities via themed cafes, amusement park menus, and attempts at recipes from your favorite creators to bring fantasy into reality. Joining the table is actor, musician, and fellow nerd Jimmy Wong to discuss the ultimate food and drink icons of fantasy and games but also how a collective desire for these things is a marker of success in the medium. Watching the full video episodes on YouTube. Follow JimmyInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/jfwong/Check out THE FEAST OF FICTION KITCHEN Cookbook: https://www.amazon.com/Feast-Fiction-Kitchen-Ultimate-Movies/dp/1682684407Follow Us:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/fulldiscoursepodTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@fulldiscoursepod Follow the host Josh:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thejoshelkin TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thejoshelkin YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/thejoshelkin
