The most recent This American Life is all about food |

Filed under: Dinner, Poultry, America, Real Kitchens  I love This American Life. I love every trendy, emotionally orchestrated, hipster-ish moment of it. I try to catch it on Sunday mornings at 12 noon (that's when it plays on WHYY in Philly) but often times, I'm not at home when it's on the air. This last Sunday, I happened to be driving around with the radio on to catch the beginning of Jonathan Gold's story about how for six months he kept a live chicken on the top of his fridge, feeding it several cans of corn niblets every day. Sadly, I didn't get a chance to finish listening, because I had to get out of the car and buy ingredients for fruitcake.
However, thanks to Kim's post on Culinate today, I'm now aware that the entire episode this weekend was all about food, poultry specifically (so appropriate for Thanksgiving). Lucky for me, I subscribe to the show's podcast, so that episode will appear on my iPod sometime in the next few days and I'll be able to listen to it in all of it's wacky, foodie glory. However, even if you don't subscribe, you can check out the show online. It might even be airing again in the next day or two in your listening area. It's worth listening to just to hear Jonathan Gold say "niblets" over and over again. There is something inexplicably entertaining in that one word. Read | Permalink | Email this | Comments
