Food52’s surprising success story, with co-founders Amanda Hesser and Merrill Stubbs

Food writers Amanda Hesser and Merrill Stubbs turned a book deal into a digital publishing and retail company. Then they spent 10 years turning that company into something worth more than $100 million. They tell Recode Media’s Peter Kafka what they learned along the way — and why he was wrong to count them out years ago. Plus: A conversation with Pod Save America’s Dan Pfeiffer about the state of the 2020 race, the media strategies the candidates are using, and what they did and didn’t learn from 2016.

and Dan Pfieiffer (@danpfeiffer) author of Un-Trumping America, co-host of Pod Save America
