Deb Perelman & J. Kenji López-Alt
About this episode

Kenji has many pans going on the fire at all times, one of which was directing this year’s Community Curated Series for Seattle Arts & Lectures. In January 2024, he invited his future podcast bestie Deb onstage with him to chop it up about recipe development (and theft!), family, and greasy bags of Dick’s. 


Thanks to Alison Stagner and Woogee Bae of Seattle Arts & Lectures for their help.
