Danny Childs turned to bartending as a way to earn extra money between research work as an anthropologist and ethnobotanist. Over time, he merged his interests in the botanical world and bartending, culminating in the book Slow Drinks, which recently earned a James Beard Foundation Award. For this episode, we chat with Childs about his path from field researcher to foraging bartender, and about how his slow drinks philosophy intersects with the larger goals of the Slow Food movement.
