I think for me, some more specificity in these awards would be nice too. I mean, if it's not for profit, why can't they give money to the winners of the award? Just make voting transparent. You don't want to see the see. Why not? For something that's so instrumental for chefs and the culinary profession, why not make voting transparent?
After an illuminating game in which Dave asks Chris to guess which 2023 food trend listicle was written by ChatGPT vs. a real person, they debate the relevancy of food writing in a world ruled by social media and where food media will go from here. Other topics include the diet changes that aging brings, being the Tom Brady of eating, and how to update the James Beard Foundation Awards for our times.
Hosts: Dave Chang and Chris Ying
Producers: Sasha Ashall, Aleya Zenieris, and Gabi Marler
