Maybe just 32 00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:48,080 Speaker 1: because I was stressed out, I didn't realize how cold 33 00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:51,280 Speaker 1: it was when I stepped outside. It's cold, all right. 34 00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:53,240 Speaker 1: We are in New York City. You know. I had 35 00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:55,200 Speaker 1: to fight a crazy amount of traffic just to get 36 00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:58,000 Speaker 1: to you in Brooklyn, but you and Seth looked really cozy. 37 00:01:58,320 --> 00:02:01,240 Speaker 1: Seth came down and took some French butter for me 38 00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:01,760 Speaker 1: as well. 39 00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:05,280 Speaker 2: He is thrilled about the butter. Thank you. 40 00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:10,840 Speaker 1: So look, at the beginning of each episode, we always 41 00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:13,920 Speaker 1: dive into the food that I prepared for you. So 42 00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:15,399 Speaker 1: let's have you tasted it yet? 43 00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:18,120 Speaker 2: No, it's sitting in the microwave. 44 00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:21,680 Speaker 1: Okay, good, Why don't you tell our listeners what exactly 45 00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:24,120 Speaker 1: is your most nostalgic meal and what did you have 46 00:02:24,200 --> 00:02:24,920 Speaker 1: me prepare for you? 47 00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:29,799 Speaker 2: So, my most nostalgic meal is a dish called gardie, 48 00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:33,119 Speaker 2: and I feel like it is kind of the unsung 49 00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:37,239 Speaker 2: hero of my cookbook Indianish. And I think it's hard 50 00:02:37,280 --> 00:02:42,280 Speaker 2: to categorize dish. It's not a soup, it's more than 51 00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:46,560 Speaker 2: a soup. It's not a stew. It's just impossible to categorize. 52 00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:49,440 Speaker 2: All I can really say about it is that it's 53 00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:54,440 Speaker 2: sort of like a cozy, tangy, spice laden blanket for 54 00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:59,000 Speaker 2: hot rice, made of chicken flour and yogurt and a 55 00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:04,720 Speaker 2: bunch of warms vices like clothes human there's ghee in it. 56 00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:08,720 Speaker 2: It is comfort food at its finest. I get really 57 00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:12,600 Speaker 2: tired of food, and I truly could never tire of gardy. 58 00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:14,400 Speaker 2: I think there was a period in which I made 59 00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:17,000 Speaker 2: a batch so large that I did eat garty every 60 00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:20,040 Speaker 2: day for two weeks. The sense that I am the 61 00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:25,080 Speaker 2: most attuned to is acid and tang and gardy is 62 00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:30,680 Speaker 2: just like that, done beautifully, like you use sour yogurt 63 00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:32,919 Speaker 2: and it sort of gives it this tang, but it's 64 00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:37,440 Speaker 2: balanced out by the spices. It's warm, it just coats 65 00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:43,280 Speaker 2: rice so beautifully. There's no greater nostalgic comfort food for 66 00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:44,280 Speaker 2: me than gardy. 67 00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:48,080 Speaker 1: Wow. I mean that might as well become like a 68 00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:53,840 Speaker 1: national advertisement for also, I say, Cutti, cutty. Can you 69 00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:58,160 Speaker 1: help me also and help our listeners pronounce this correctly? Sure? 70 00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:01,400 Speaker 2: I guess it's like a letter that does not exist 71 00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:05,560 Speaker 2: in our alphabet, right, like a light tongue roll. And 72 00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:07,320 Speaker 2: I do want to note there are many ways to 73 00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:11,080 Speaker 2: make gardy, different regional variations, and the version that I 74 00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:13,360 Speaker 2: grew up with is the one that I'm most nostalgic for, 75 00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:16,400 Speaker 2: which is a little bit on the thicker side, lots 76 00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:19,479 Speaker 2: of warm spices, not as sweet like if you have 77 00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:21,480 Speaker 2: a good Drati Gardy it might be a little bit sweeter. 78 00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:25,640 Speaker 2: But I think the base elements of sort of yogurt 79 00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:30,080 Speaker 2: and chickpa, flower and turmeric seem to be commonalities from 80 00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:31,080 Speaker 2: what I know. M. 81 00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:36,520 Speaker 1: Gotti I put too much like a role on that. 82 00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:39,880 Speaker 2: It's not quite a role. It's more of like a click, 83 00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:41,400 Speaker 2: like a tongue click, kind. 84 00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:44,320 Speaker 1: Of gott GARDI tell me whenever I get one right, 85 00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:46,880 Speaker 1: like make sure to like call out and be like, hey, Brian, 86 00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:50,600 Speaker 1: that was a good GUTTI. But you know, the yogurt 87 00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:53,479 Speaker 1: mixed with the chickpea flower. I actually ate that when 88 00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:55,200 Speaker 1: I was making I just ate that by itself, and 89 00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:57,160 Speaker 1: it was actually low key, really really good. I don't 90 00:04:57,200 --> 00:04:58,760 Speaker 1: know if you've ever done that while you're making it. 91 00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:00,640 Speaker 2: Wow, okay to try that. 92 00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:04,679 Speaker 1: It's a cutty heck, just like take a spoonful and actually, 93 00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:06,640 Speaker 1: I guess I should, you know, now explain the process. 94 00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:08,839 Speaker 2: Well, what I was curious about is like if you 95 00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:11,520 Speaker 2: figured out that this is in my cookbook and if 96 00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:14,240 Speaker 2: you made a version at all similar to the water 97 00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:15,520 Speaker 2: in my cokebook. 98 00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:18,599 Speaker 1: Because of the specific nature of this dish and my 99 00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:23,599 Speaker 1: complete unfamiliarity with it. I did. Indeed, Priya Krishna use 100 00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:30,080 Speaker 1: Priya Krishna's guttie recipe. And I think both of us 101 00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:33,360 Speaker 1: know this from writing recipes for so long. Even though 102 00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:36,280 Speaker 1: something is written down and you follow it to the tea, 103 00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:38,520 Speaker 1: there's still a lot of room for air. 104 00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:38,920 Speaker 3: Yep. 105 00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:41,760 Speaker 1: And also my instincts take over when I'm cooking, so 106 00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:44,719 Speaker 1: you know, teaspoon of this is really just like I'll 107 00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:46,479 Speaker 1: pour some in my palm and throw it in there. 108 00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:48,599 Speaker 1: So I think I think those will be the differences 109 00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:52,360 Speaker 1: between You know, I might squeeze a lime too heavy 110 00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:54,800 Speaker 1: handedly compared to your mom. 111 00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:57,480 Speaker 2: Not possible. I seizelime very heavy handedly. 112 00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:01,200 Speaker 1: Show me your limes squeezing technique. 113 00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:04,200 Speaker 2: I not only squeeze the lime, but then I scrape 114 00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:07,600 Speaker 2: it to like get all of the membrane. There is 115 00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:11,400 Speaker 2: no trace of lime left. I'm done with it. 116 00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:15,360 Speaker 1: There's no trace of lime left. So when you call 117 00:06:15,480 --> 00:06:18,080 Speaker 1: for a squeeze lime, you're talking about the membranes and 118 00:06:18,200 --> 00:06:20,080 Speaker 1: all of the juicy meat. Part two. 119 00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:20,720 Speaker 3: No. 120 00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:23,880 Speaker 2: I basically, when I develop a recipe, I know who 121 00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:26,760 Speaker 2: I am. A person who loves salt and loves lime 122 00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:28,200 Speaker 2: juice and loves chilis. 123 00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:28,760 Speaker 3: Huh. 124 00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:31,200 Speaker 2: I sort of like temper that a little bit, and 125 00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:33,400 Speaker 2: then like sort of note, I like a little bit 126 00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:36,640 Speaker 2: more lime juice. My recipes assume that they're just squeezing 127 00:06:36,680 --> 00:06:39,719 Speaker 2: the lime, and then when I do it, I'm scraping 128 00:06:39,720 --> 00:06:40,840 Speaker 2: it aggressively on the. 129 00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:45,720 Speaker 1: Side, get that lime membrane. Do you feel like this 130 00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:49,400 Speaker 1: recipe that's in your book is as good as it 131 00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:53,479 Speaker 1: gets in terms of your personal tastes. I guess, have 132 00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:55,440 Speaker 1: you made it for your mom? Like? Does she when 133 00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:57,960 Speaker 1: she eats it? Does she like? Whoa, this is it? Yeah? 134 00:06:58,000 --> 00:06:59,919 Speaker 2: I have made this for my mom and she approves. 135 00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:03,200 Speaker 2: I will say that, like the quality of this recipe, 136 00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:07,719 Speaker 2: like many recipes, depends on the quality of your yogurt, 137 00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:11,480 Speaker 2: the quality of your turmeric, the quality of your spices. 138 00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:15,400 Speaker 2: My mom makes this with my dad's yogurt, which is 139 00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:20,680 Speaker 2: really really tangy and has that like exact acidity that 140 00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:21,760 Speaker 2: you're looking for. 141 00:07:21,880 --> 00:07:24,480 Speaker 1: Like yogurt from scratch, like your dad keeps yogurt on deck. 142 00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:27,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, my dad makes yogurt from scratch, And to me, 143 00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:30,920 Speaker 2: that homemade yogurt not only gives the flavor you're looking for, 144 00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:35,920 Speaker 2: but gives the girty the really velvety texture when made right, 145 00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:38,880 Speaker 2: it is velvety. I'll make gurty when I have old 146 00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:43,200 Speaker 2: yogurt that I know has soured a bit, because regular 147 00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:46,320 Speaker 2: yogurt straight out of the box is not going to 148 00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:48,240 Speaker 2: give you the sourness you need, which is why in 149 00:07:48,280 --> 00:07:50,480 Speaker 2: the recipe you sort of balance it out with lime 150 00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:52,600 Speaker 2: juice to get some of that missing acidity. 151 00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:54,520 Speaker 3: But in an. 152 00:07:54,400 --> 00:07:57,560 Speaker 2: Ideal world, you don't need any lime juice and the 153 00:07:57,600 --> 00:08:00,800 Speaker 2: sourness of the yogurt is carrying that flavor. 154 00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:03,880 Speaker 1: Got you, Got you? And I also noticed you put 155 00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:06,360 Speaker 1: not Greek yogurt. Tell me a little bit about that. 156 00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:11,320 Speaker 2: You want something that's going to incorporate smoothly and turn 157 00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:14,640 Speaker 2: to like that velvety liquid, and Greek yogurt is definitely 158 00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:15,720 Speaker 2: on the thicker side. 159 00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:18,600 Speaker 1: Right. What's your preferred if you have to do the 160 00:08:18,640 --> 00:08:20,760 Speaker 1: storeball thing? Like? Is there a specific one? 161 00:08:20,920 --> 00:08:23,040 Speaker 2: There's like a brand you can buy in Indian starts. 162 00:08:23,080 --> 00:08:26,120 Speaker 2: I think it's literally called basy yogurt. It is much 163 00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:29,640 Speaker 2: tangier than regular plane yogurt. I would say that's the 164 00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:30,559 Speaker 2: yogurt to get. 165 00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:35,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, so I use stony Field Organic plain whole milk, 166 00:08:35,600 --> 00:08:40,840 Speaker 1: probiotic billions per serving, by the way, billions of pio 167 00:08:42,040 --> 00:08:47,560 Speaker 1: billions bill all right, So I actually almost forgot the 168 00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:50,480 Speaker 1: dried chilis, but luckily I always have those on deck 169 00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:52,920 Speaker 1: for making sadas, sauce and stuff like that. Is there 170 00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:55,360 Speaker 1: a specific type of chili, because it doesn't. It's just 171 00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:56,440 Speaker 1: like a dried red chili. 172 00:08:57,280 --> 00:08:59,319 Speaker 2: Any kind of dried red chili will work. I mean, 173 00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:02,280 Speaker 2: I don't suggest you use like a choked chilies or 174 00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:04,599 Speaker 2: things that are that have like a real like smokiness 175 00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:07,800 Speaker 2: to them. Yeah, I find that most varieties that aren't 176 00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:11,160 Speaker 2: smoky work just fine at like sort of imparting that 177 00:09:11,400 --> 00:09:13,360 Speaker 2: gentle heat to the cartie. 178 00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:17,200 Speaker 1: Yes, imparting the gentle heat to the guttie. You should 179 00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:21,000 Speaker 1: narrate this recipe. I think it's very clear how much 180 00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:23,480 Speaker 1: you love cuttie, and I think now it's time to 181 00:09:23,520 --> 00:09:26,320 Speaker 1: have some fun because you haven't tasted it yet.

All right? Perfect? 188 00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:46,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, I microwaved it on rice. I'm so excited. 189 00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:50,360 Speaker 1: We want the real deal. What your mom would say, 190 00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:53,120 Speaker 1: what you would really say when the doors are closed 191 00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:54,160 Speaker 1: and the mics are off. 192 00:09:54,559 --> 00:09:57,400 Speaker 2: Texture wise, this looks great. It looks really smooth. It 193 00:09:57,520 --> 00:10:00,400 Speaker 2: smells good. These whole chilies look great. 194 00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:01,440 Speaker 1: Is it thick enough? 195 00:10:01,559 --> 00:10:03,959 Speaker 2: Yeah, it is thick enough. This looks really great. 196 00:10:04,240 --> 00:10:06,439 Speaker 1: Okay, Wow, I passed the aesthetic tests. 197 00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:11,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, the color is right, it looks correct and smells good. 198 00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:13,880 Speaker 1: I can't tell if this is like me cooking well 199 00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:15,840 Speaker 1: or you just promoting your recipe right now. 200 00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:19,520 Speaker 2: Probably this is great, Brian, this is fantastic. 201 00:10:20,640 --> 00:10:23,040 Speaker 1: Oh wow, she's taking bite number two. 202 00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:28,600 Speaker 2: This is definitely like more gee heavy than I usually 203 00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:30,960 Speaker 2: make it. Oh maybe the recipe is more gee heavy 204 00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:32,400 Speaker 2: than I just like use less gie. 205 00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:35,120 Speaker 1: I want all to know that she's straight up chowing 206 00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:36,520 Speaker 1: down right when. 207 00:10:36,400 --> 00:10:38,400 Speaker 2: I have thirty in front of me, I can't It's 208 00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:41,559 Speaker 2: literally there's no chance I'm not going to finish this 209 00:10:41,760 --> 00:10:42,319 Speaker 2: entire bowl. 210 00:10:43,800 --> 00:10:46,839 Speaker 1: While Priya finishes the bowl, I'll explain what I did. 211 00:10:46,960 --> 00:10:49,040 Speaker 1: I think I know where the heavy gee part came in. 212 00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:50,800 Speaker 1: It was right at the end, so you know, the 213 00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:53,600 Speaker 1: spices and everything got toasted in a little bit of gee. 214 00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:56,959 Speaker 1: The bay leaves, and then the chickpea flour and yogurt 215 00:10:57,000 --> 00:10:59,600 Speaker 1: mixture was added with a little more water, and then 216 00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:02,200 Speaker 1: I rip the heat up while stirring because we didn't 217 00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:04,520 Speaker 1: want it to curdle, and then I let it boil 218 00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:09,120 Speaker 1: for ten minutes unbothered. Then all right, you have this 219 00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:12,400 Speaker 1: extra step that I actually almost missed until I you know, 220 00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:14,240 Speaker 1: I was doing it this morning and I knew traffic 221 00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:15,960 Speaker 1: was building up, and I was like, I gotta get 222 00:11:15,960 --> 00:11:18,480 Speaker 1: over to Brooklyn. But I saw the extra step. And 223 00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:23,320 Speaker 1: it's basically cuman seeds that get blasted by hot gee 224 00:11:23,320 --> 00:11:26,440 Speaker 1: in a separate pan, and as soon as they brown, 225 00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:29,480 Speaker 1: which happens pretty quickly, you turn the heat off. And 226 00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:31,040 Speaker 1: I don't know how I remember all this. 227 00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:32,400 Speaker 2: By the way, I'm like, you're nailing it. 228 00:11:32,400 --> 00:11:37,839 Speaker 1: You're nailing it, Beato, but you add three red chilis, 229 00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:42,719 Speaker 1: some chili powder. And there's one more thing that actually atita. 230 00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:45,719 Speaker 2: Yes, I would have known if you hadn't used it, 231 00:11:45,800 --> 00:11:48,440 Speaker 2: but you used it, and it's good. 232 00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:53,840 Speaker 1: Yo. She's she's literally crushing the whole bowl, and so 233 00:11:54,280 --> 00:11:58,200 Speaker 1: asdatita aspatita or heing and what exactly is that for 234 00:11:58,280 --> 00:11:59,240 Speaker 1: those that don't know. 235 00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:02,600 Speaker 2: It's technical a tree resin, but it sort of has 236 00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:06,640 Speaker 2: this really wonderful pungent flavor that I would describe as 237 00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:10,040 Speaker 2: like a cross between onion and garlic. It just adds 238 00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:13,360 Speaker 2: this like sneaky, delicious depth to Indian cooking. 239 00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:16,760 Speaker 1: Yes, beautiful. She would have known if I hadn't used 240 00:12:16,760 --> 00:12:18,400 Speaker 1: it that I feel like, here's the thing. When I 241 00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:20,440 Speaker 1: was plating this up for you, I was like, I 242 00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:23,120 Speaker 1: gotta include the whole chili's. I gotta include the bay 243 00:12:23,200 --> 00:12:24,400 Speaker 1: leaf so you can see. 244 00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:25,880 Speaker 2: I really appreciate that. 245 00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:28,680 Speaker 1: I want to ask some tips about eating this because 246 00:12:29,240 --> 00:12:33,840 Speaker 1: there's whole cloves and whole peppercorns. So is the idea 247 00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:36,680 Speaker 1: that you just eat them, you crunch them, you swallow them. 248 00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:40,640 Speaker 2: I think the whole peppercorns are delicious eaten whole. I 249 00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:42,679 Speaker 2: love how when you put them in the gardy they 250 00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:45,240 Speaker 2: sort of soften a bit, so when you bite into one, 251 00:12:45,280 --> 00:12:47,880 Speaker 2: it's almost like biting into like a caper. It's sort 252 00:12:47,880 --> 00:12:50,440 Speaker 2: of hard, gone a little soggy, and it makes way 253 00:12:50,640 --> 00:12:54,400 Speaker 2: for this like explosion of pepper flavor, which my family 254 00:12:54,480 --> 00:12:58,040 Speaker 2: loves pepper. The whole cloves, what I'll do is like 255 00:12:58,120 --> 00:13:00,880 Speaker 2: kind of like suck on them, bite, but then I 256 00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:04,040 Speaker 2: won't swallow it. But some of my family members will 257 00:13:04,080 --> 00:13:06,559 Speaker 2: eat them whole. Okay, we have some family members who 258 00:13:06,559 --> 00:13:10,160 Speaker 2: will eat the dried chilies that I cannot take that heat, 259 00:13:10,360 --> 00:13:14,440 Speaker 2: so I usually discard my dried chilies. And then obviously 260 00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:15,480 Speaker 2: the bay leaves. 261 00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:17,880 Speaker 1: Right, you're not eating that ain't nobody eating, No Bailey 262 00:13:18,520 --> 00:13:21,000 Speaker 1: Baby better tell me to eat. Ain't nobody better ever 263 00:13:21,040 --> 00:13:23,880 Speaker 1: tell me to eat in bay Leaves man like, But. 264 00:13:23,960 --> 00:13:26,920 Speaker 2: The whole peppercorn is my favorite thing to eat in Gardy. 265 00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:28,400 Speaker 2: I just I love that bite. 266 00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:33,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, I want everyone to also continue to be aware 267 00:13:33,040 --> 00:13:35,240 Speaker 1: of the fact that she has been eating the whole 268 00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:37,959 Speaker 1: bowl of food, which makes my heart very warm. 269 00:13:38,200 --> 00:13:41,360 Speaker 2: I can't tell you words not describe how much I 270 00:13:41,400 --> 00:13:45,920 Speaker 2: love Gardy. It's so it's so good tasting this dish. 271 00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:48,959 Speaker 2: It's just like, it's really remarkable how similar it tastes 272 00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:51,719 Speaker 2: to my mom's. And one of my goals with indianish 273 00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:54,880 Speaker 2: was when I was testing these I wasn't testing them 274 00:13:54,880 --> 00:13:58,719 Speaker 2: with my mom spices, with my dad's yogurt. I did 275 00:13:58,760 --> 00:14:01,120 Speaker 2: all my grocery shopping at wall because I was like, 276 00:14:01,280 --> 00:14:05,640 Speaker 2: I want to try making these recipes with ingredients at 277 00:14:05,640 --> 00:14:09,080 Speaker 2: a grocery store that, like much of America goes to. 278 00:14:09,920 --> 00:14:13,040 Speaker 2: So I'd buy my okra at Walmart, I'd buy spices 279 00:14:13,080 --> 00:14:16,600 Speaker 2: at Walmart. I'd buy yogurt at Walmart. If this tastes 280 00:14:17,160 --> 00:14:22,960 Speaker 2: outstanding with these ingredients, that deserves to be in the book, Right, 281 00:14:23,360 --> 00:14:25,560 Speaker 2: I try to be a realist. When I write books, 282 00:14:25,720 --> 00:14:29,840 Speaker 2: I'm thinking, like, who's actually going to do this? Are 283 00:14:29,880 --> 00:14:33,120 Speaker 2: people gonna make this shortcut? If so, I need to 284 00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:35,160 Speaker 2: assume that people are going to do this shortcut and 285 00:14:35,200 --> 00:14:37,760 Speaker 2: make sure it still tastes good when they inevitably do 286 00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:40,960 Speaker 2: make that shortcut. In an ideal world, I'd be like, 287 00:14:41,160 --> 00:14:44,240 Speaker 2: buy yogurt, age it for a week, then use it. 288 00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:47,640 Speaker 2: But I'm like, who's gonna age yogurt for a week 289 00:14:47,680 --> 00:14:50,360 Speaker 2: and then use it? So like more realistically, it's like, yeah, 290 00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:54,720 Speaker 2: just use the store about yogurt and addline juice. It 291 00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:55,360 Speaker 2: worked great. 292 00:14:55,720 --> 00:14:56,040 Speaker 1: Yeah. 293 00:14:56,160 --> 00:14:58,440 Speaker 2: The whole point of Indianish is for other people to 294 00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:00,600 Speaker 2: experience my pristian moments. 295 00:15:01,040 --> 00:15:02,200 Speaker 1: Ooh, I like that. 296 00:15:02,280 --> 00:15:03,920 Speaker 2: I feel like I've done something right. So this is 297 00:15:03,960 --> 00:15:05,720 Speaker 2: like hats off to you and hats off to me, 298 00:15:05,880 --> 00:15:07,800 Speaker 2: hats off to us. All we did it. 299 00:15:07,920 --> 00:15:13,920 Speaker 1: We did it? So yes or no, Priya? Did I 300 00:15:14,040 --> 00:15:17,800 Speaker 1: bring you back somewhere positive with the cutty? 301 00:15:20,760 --> 00:15:21,320 Speaker 2: Absolutely? 302 00:15:21,440 --> 00:15:28,920 Speaker 1: Yes, Oh That's what I'm talking about. Stay flaky, We'll 303 00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:41,840 Speaker 1: be right back. Welcome back to Flaky biscuits. 304 00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:47,200 Speaker 2: I have to ask did you eat it? And what 305 00:15:47,200 --> 00:15:47,960 Speaker 2: did you think of it? 306 00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:50,840 Speaker 1: Of course, and I'm glad that you asked. I actually 307 00:15:50,880 --> 00:15:54,120 Speaker 1: have some right here. I've been eating it. I will 308 00:15:54,160 --> 00:15:56,440 Speaker 1: agree with you, it's unlike anything. I don't have a 309 00:15:56,480 --> 00:15:59,360 Speaker 1: reference point. I've never made it before, there's nothing to 310 00:15:59,360 --> 00:16:02,440 Speaker 1: compare it to. It's got a texture that's unlike others. 311 00:16:02,560 --> 00:16:06,920 Speaker 1: It's got this balance between the y acidity and spice, unlike 312 00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:11,120 Speaker 1: anything I've ever tasted. It's very simple to make, very quick. 313 00:16:11,520 --> 00:16:13,920 Speaker 1: And I'm actually curious when you were growing up how 314 00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:17,000 Speaker 1: your parents would prepare this and prepare other things. What 315 00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:21,200 Speaker 1: was their experience, you know, coming to the US, trying 316 00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:24,840 Speaker 1: to preserve these traditions within the family unit, and how 317 00:16:24,840 --> 00:16:30,080 Speaker 1: did this recipe and other recipes actually form the backbone 318 00:16:30,120 --> 00:16:31,440 Speaker 1: of like your family unit. 319 00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:35,000 Speaker 2: I feel like it was less my mom wanting to 320 00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:38,880 Speaker 2: preserve family recipes. In fact, we didn't have family recipes 321 00:16:38,920 --> 00:16:43,800 Speaker 2: because my mom's mom absolutely hated cooking and could not 322 00:16:43,880 --> 00:16:46,160 Speaker 2: be bothered to do it. And so my mom kind 323 00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:50,680 Speaker 2: of taught herself to cook based off of dishes that 324 00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:53,600 Speaker 2: her grandmother had made for her, a few of the 325 00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:56,400 Speaker 2: dishes her mom had made, dishes the friends had made 326 00:16:56,400 --> 00:16:59,160 Speaker 2: for her. She sort of like developed all of these 327 00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:02,400 Speaker 2: recipes herself health based solely on memory, and I think 328 00:17:02,480 --> 00:17:06,320 Speaker 2: gardi is one of those dishes that was so rooted 329 00:17:06,880 --> 00:17:10,680 Speaker 2: in her memories as like when the weather gets cold, 330 00:17:10,840 --> 00:17:13,360 Speaker 2: when there's not a lot of fresh produce, you make 331 00:17:13,400 --> 00:17:17,560 Speaker 2: gardy And it just became like a deep love for 332 00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:20,720 Speaker 2: my sister and me. There are dishes in Indianish that 333 00:17:20,760 --> 00:17:24,080 Speaker 2: I see people make all over Instagram. I love how 334 00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:27,920 Speaker 2: much people make the doll, the sogfeta, but not a 335 00:17:27,960 --> 00:17:30,600 Speaker 2: lot of people make the gardy, and I wish that 336 00:17:31,080 --> 00:17:34,959 Speaker 2: they would, because like, this recipe is so delicious, it 337 00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:36,400 Speaker 2: like makes me want to cry. 338 00:17:38,720 --> 00:17:40,840 Speaker 1: Is this something that you would take to school? Like 339 00:17:41,160 --> 00:17:43,480 Speaker 1: you growing up? You grew up in Dallas? Correct, Yes, 340 00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:47,679 Speaker 1: how was going to school? And perhaps you brought some 341 00:17:47,720 --> 00:17:50,240 Speaker 1: gutti with you or something and ate that at lunch? 342 00:17:50,320 --> 00:17:52,520 Speaker 1: Like what kind of feedback did you get? You know, 343 00:17:52,560 --> 00:17:54,840 Speaker 1: what kind of experience did you have in the South? 344 00:17:55,040 --> 00:17:58,840 Speaker 1: Were your classmates into it? Were they curious? What was 345 00:17:58,880 --> 00:18:00,360 Speaker 1: that whole experience like for you? 346 00:18:00,800 --> 00:18:03,480 Speaker 2: Oh, I was not bringing thirty to lunch. There was 347 00:18:03,520 --> 00:18:06,240 Speaker 2: absolutely no way I was bringing thirty to lunch. I 348 00:18:07,200 --> 00:18:09,520 Speaker 2: laid down the law with my mom that I needed 349 00:18:09,520 --> 00:18:12,240 Speaker 2: a peanut butter and jelly sandwich every day. 350 00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:13,000 Speaker 1: Why is that? 351 00:18:13,200 --> 00:18:16,640 Speaker 2: It's like the classic cliche like child of immigrants just 352 00:18:16,760 --> 00:18:18,640 Speaker 2: wants to fit in and not be told her lunch 353 00:18:18,760 --> 00:18:20,679 Speaker 2: is smelly. It's tale as old as time. 354 00:18:23,119 --> 00:18:25,359 Speaker 1: So like you laid down the law before, so you 355 00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:27,880 Speaker 1: never even tried to go through it. No. 356 00:18:28,359 --> 00:18:31,320 Speaker 2: I mean I was really traumatized by this moment in 357 00:18:31,359 --> 00:18:36,159 Speaker 2: which Ursulon Khan's mom brought barfie to school on the 358 00:18:36,320 --> 00:18:40,719 Speaker 2: Vali to celebrate, and this girl, Rebecca Whiteman I remember, 359 00:18:40,760 --> 00:18:44,280 Speaker 2: came up to me and was like, Ursulon's mom brought 360 00:18:44,359 --> 00:18:48,360 Speaker 2: this stuff and it sounds like barf and it tastes 361 00:18:48,480 --> 00:18:51,200 Speaker 2: like barf, and she was like spitting it out. 362 00:18:51,640 --> 00:18:52,240 Speaker 1: Oh wow. 363 00:18:52,560 --> 00:18:56,320 Speaker 2: She just was making this face, this disgusted face, and 364 00:18:56,359 --> 00:19:00,320 Speaker 2: that moment is like seared into my memory. But like 365 00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:02,639 Speaker 2: this is not unique to me. Every kid has got 366 00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:06,040 Speaker 2: those moments. So I was just like, well, yeah, fuck no, 367 00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:07,399 Speaker 2: I'm not bringing Indian food. 368 00:19:08,200 --> 00:19:13,280 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah no. First of all, I'm like really sorry 369 00:19:13,280 --> 00:19:15,560 Speaker 1: that you had to experience that, and obviously sorry for 370 00:19:15,600 --> 00:19:15,960 Speaker 1: your friend. 371 00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:19,639 Speaker 2: Yeah, shout out to Ursula Cohn's mom. Just try to 372 00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:20,520 Speaker 2: spread the culture. 373 00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:26,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, special shout out for braving the insanely blatant racism 374 00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:32,560 Speaker 1: of Southern schools. I obviously had gone through several iterations 375 00:19:32,560 --> 00:19:35,720 Speaker 1: of that as well. It typically wasn't food oriented. It 376 00:19:35,760 --> 00:19:37,720 Speaker 1: was also it was always just like, you know, my 377 00:19:37,800 --> 00:19:40,880 Speaker 1: skin color. But it kind of creates the love hate 378 00:19:40,920 --> 00:19:42,639 Speaker 1: relationship with the South, doesn't it. 379 00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:46,000 Speaker 2: Yes, But I will say I grew up in Dallas. 380 00:19:46,040 --> 00:19:48,720 Speaker 2: I grew up in the suburbs. I grew up in 381 00:19:48,760 --> 00:19:51,600 Speaker 2: a very large Indian community. I went to like a 382 00:19:51,600 --> 00:19:55,080 Speaker 2: pretty liberal, non denominational school. But like I mean, I 383 00:19:55,080 --> 00:19:57,080 Speaker 2: think in many ways that just means like the racism 384 00:19:57,160 --> 00:20:03,199 Speaker 2: is more subtle, right, It's less like I hate black people, 385 00:20:03,320 --> 00:20:05,960 Speaker 2: and it's more like I really do love black people. 386 00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:08,359 Speaker 2: I just don't want them living in my block. That 387 00:20:08,520 --> 00:20:13,159 Speaker 2: kind of the Nimby style racism. 388 00:20:13,400 --> 00:20:15,000 Speaker 1: You know, And to be honest, it's the kind that 389 00:20:15,160 --> 00:20:18,320 Speaker 1: I think is prevalent up here in the North. Yeah, 390 00:20:18,600 --> 00:20:20,600 Speaker 1: because I love growing up in New Orleans and the 391 00:20:20,640 --> 00:20:22,840 Speaker 1: food there, and I loved all the other Hispanic people 392 00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:25,960 Speaker 1: there and Honduran's there. But we and then I feel 393 00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:28,320 Speaker 1: like every single day we were reminded that we were 394 00:20:28,359 --> 00:20:31,679 Speaker 1: like less than yo when there was tacos at lunch. 395 00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:34,920 Speaker 1: It was just like, Hey, let's go call Brian Mexican 396 00:20:35,080 --> 00:20:41,280 Speaker 1: all day today. It's quite unfortunate that we weren't able 397 00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:44,960 Speaker 1: to kind of celebrate our culture the right way with 398 00:20:45,160 --> 00:20:47,080 Speaker 1: a lot of people at school or through our lunches 399 00:20:47,119 --> 00:20:49,679 Speaker 1: and stuff like that. It really, it really is a 400 00:20:49,680 --> 00:20:52,439 Speaker 1: difficult thing to think about. Actually, it actually makes me sad. 401 00:20:52,600 --> 00:20:54,159 Speaker 1: It's like, why did we have to go through that? 402 00:20:55,160 --> 00:20:59,200 Speaker 2: It makes me sad, But like it made the pride 403 00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:01,800 Speaker 2: that I feel for my mom's food just all that 404 00:21:01,880 --> 00:21:05,639 Speaker 2: much stronger now, Like it made me so happy to 405 00:21:05,720 --> 00:21:09,520 Speaker 2: write Indianish and to own up to the shame that 406 00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:13,360 Speaker 2: I felt, and like acknowledge that this is a journey 407 00:21:13,960 --> 00:21:17,600 Speaker 2: that I am on. I never won't feel caught between 408 00:21:18,160 --> 00:21:22,480 Speaker 2: the sort of indian ness and the American news and right, 409 00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:26,439 Speaker 2: the Ursulon Cohn moment was bad, but I was I 410 00:21:26,520 --> 00:21:30,840 Speaker 2: was not subjected to like the incredibly blatant racism that 411 00:21:30,960 --> 00:21:34,320 Speaker 2: many people growing up in the South were. I grew 412 00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:37,520 Speaker 2: up in like a privileged family within like a larger 413 00:21:37,560 --> 00:21:40,840 Speaker 2: Indian community, and I had people I could relate to 414 00:21:40,960 --> 00:21:43,720 Speaker 2: and talk to about these things, right, I just didn't 415 00:21:43,720 --> 00:21:46,560 Speaker 2: have the language to know how I was feeling. And 416 00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:49,440 Speaker 2: I think I just have been a people pleaser my 417 00:21:49,480 --> 00:21:52,360 Speaker 2: whole life and just desperately wanted to fit in. 418 00:21:53,280 --> 00:21:55,159 Speaker 1: Well, I mean fittingan's the name of the game. I 419 00:21:55,160 --> 00:21:58,280 Speaker 1: mean when I would experience these situations, I was in 420 00:21:58,320 --> 00:22:01,520 Speaker 1: like gifted programs and cool like honors classes and this 421 00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:04,359 Speaker 1: kind of thing. And when I was around certain when 422 00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:07,880 Speaker 1: I was around white people, certain people, I would speak differently, 423 00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:09,360 Speaker 1: act differently. 424 00:22:09,359 --> 00:22:11,399 Speaker 2: Totally, you like code switch around. 425 00:22:11,680 --> 00:22:12,000 Speaker 1: Yeah. 426 00:22:12,040 --> 00:22:14,520 Speaker 2: Being in large white communities, sit totally. 427 00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:16,680 Speaker 1: Same, one hundred percent. And I was playing soccer, which 428 00:22:17,200 --> 00:22:20,880 Speaker 1: in a lot of communities you had to pay to play. Yeah. 429 00:22:20,960 --> 00:22:24,520 Speaker 1: I just remember actually the first select team I got 430 00:22:24,520 --> 00:22:26,720 Speaker 1: to be on, I got to play for free because 431 00:22:26,760 --> 00:22:29,720 Speaker 1: obviously my parents didn't have four thousand dollars a year 432 00:22:29,840 --> 00:22:33,399 Speaker 1: to so I could kick a ball. Yeah, for the 433 00:22:33,440 --> 00:22:36,280 Speaker 1: elite level teams, Like I was pretty good at soccer, 434 00:22:36,320 --> 00:22:38,280 Speaker 1: and so the coach would be like, hey, like we 435 00:22:38,280 --> 00:22:41,280 Speaker 1: want them on the team, like whatever. And those teams 436 00:22:41,400 --> 00:22:44,840 Speaker 1: it was you know, teenage white kids, some of them nice, 437 00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:46,639 Speaker 1: but most of them, I mean they would call me 438 00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:50,040 Speaker 1: the N word as my name. I was their teammate. 439 00:22:50,119 --> 00:22:53,360 Speaker 1: And again I wanted to please them, I wanted them 440 00:22:53,400 --> 00:22:55,680 Speaker 1: to feel good. I would always fight for their respect, 441 00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:58,359 Speaker 1: and thinking back on it, and especially like if you 442 00:22:58,440 --> 00:23:01,480 Speaker 1: know my career, it's almost the same thing. Like I 443 00:23:01,480 --> 00:23:04,440 Speaker 1: don't want to bake certain things anymore because I want 444 00:23:04,480 --> 00:23:06,119 Speaker 1: to stand up for what I believe in and I 445 00:23:06,160 --> 00:23:09,800 Speaker 1: want to bake the cuisine that's in the continent I'm from. 446 00:23:10,200 --> 00:23:13,120 Speaker 1: I don't want to bake certain things because I think 447 00:23:13,160 --> 00:23:15,720 Speaker 1: I should be making them. It's more like I need 448 00:23:15,720 --> 00:23:17,520 Speaker 1: to be me, and I need to be comfortable with 449 00:23:17,560 --> 00:23:19,800 Speaker 1: being me. And I feel like, from what I'm hearing, 450 00:23:19,880 --> 00:23:23,040 Speaker 1: Indian Ish was your way of like flourishing in that regard. 451 00:23:23,560 --> 00:23:27,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, it sort of like started a journey that I'm 452 00:23:27,760 --> 00:23:31,719 Speaker 2: still on, not only letting go of shame, but like 453 00:23:31,800 --> 00:23:37,840 Speaker 2: the positive action of being really proud of my experience 454 00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:42,200 Speaker 2: and of my family and also recognizing that those feelings 455 00:23:42,280 --> 00:23:45,040 Speaker 2: that experience is not at all unique and is representative 456 00:23:45,080 --> 00:23:49,119 Speaker 2: of what many kids of our generation went through growing up. 457 00:23:49,160 --> 00:23:50,199 Speaker 2: We just didn't talk about it. 458 00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:52,439 Speaker 1: We did not talk about it. And it happens in 459 00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:56,720 Speaker 1: other countries as well. It's immigration, you know, African immigration 460 00:23:56,800 --> 00:24:00,560 Speaker 1: into France. There's so many different countries that have this 461 00:24:00,720 --> 00:24:03,360 Speaker 1: kind of we're gonna look at you and basically make 462 00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:06,160 Speaker 1: our assessment of where you belong in society by how 463 00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:09,359 Speaker 1: you look. Yeah, you know what, Actually, speaking of family, 464 00:24:09,400 --> 00:24:13,400 Speaker 1: you have a new family member, right, your husband seth Oh? 465 00:24:13,520 --> 00:24:15,840 Speaker 2: Yes, yes, new family member. 466 00:24:15,680 --> 00:24:18,240 Speaker 1: Because I've been curious, you know, like we you know, 467 00:24:18,280 --> 00:24:21,959 Speaker 1: my fiance is white, set is white? Is that something 468 00:24:22,040 --> 00:24:24,840 Speaker 1: that has ever been an issue for you guys? And 469 00:24:24,880 --> 00:24:27,199 Speaker 1: not within your family or anything like that, but just 470 00:24:27,240 --> 00:24:29,239 Speaker 1: even like out in the streets. I know, when we 471 00:24:29,359 --> 00:24:32,119 Speaker 1: road trip to the South, when you need gas at 472 00:24:32,119 --> 00:24:35,120 Speaker 1: that like random Virginia gas station, it's like you never 473 00:24:35,160 --> 00:24:37,240 Speaker 1: know what's going to happen out there. You know, we're 474 00:24:37,240 --> 00:24:39,439 Speaker 1: always a little bit cautious. Do you guys ever have 475 00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:40,040 Speaker 1: to go through that? 476 00:24:40,400 --> 00:24:44,440 Speaker 2: Yeah? I mean I feel like every interracial couple, these 477 00:24:44,520 --> 00:24:48,359 Speaker 2: dynamics are always at play, right. Yeah, my husband is 478 00:24:48,480 --> 00:24:52,719 Speaker 2: like a tall white man who like embodies Western standards 479 00:24:52,720 --> 00:24:57,160 Speaker 2: of beauty, and it can be really jarring sometimes. 480 00:24:57,720 --> 00:25:00,560 Speaker 1: By Western standards of beauty, do you mean perfect traps, 481 00:25:01,840 --> 00:25:05,520 Speaker 1: great biceps, and a superman jaw line. Yeah. 482 00:25:06,080 --> 00:25:07,720 Speaker 2: I saw him. I was like, oh, he looks kind 483 00:25:07,720 --> 00:25:08,800 Speaker 2: of Clark Kentish. 484 00:25:09,080 --> 00:25:11,000 Speaker 1: The first time I saw Set, I was like, who 485 00:25:11,080 --> 00:25:16,159 Speaker 1: is this Bruce Wayne, this whole like exceptional man in 486 00:25:16,160 --> 00:25:18,119 Speaker 1: front of me. It makes me question all of my 487 00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:21,879 Speaker 1: diet and exercise efforts. No, but you know what the 488 00:25:21,920 --> 00:25:23,760 Speaker 1: thing about Set this he's literally the nice, one of 489 00:25:23,760 --> 00:25:26,440 Speaker 1: the nicest guys ever met. And it's that real kindness 490 00:25:26,440 --> 00:25:27,000 Speaker 1: that he has. 491 00:25:27,359 --> 00:25:30,439 Speaker 2: He totally is. But and I'm sure you experience this. 492 00:25:30,520 --> 00:25:34,000 Speaker 2: It's like a lot of educating your partner. I'm like, Yeah, 493 00:25:34,080 --> 00:25:36,280 Speaker 2: you go through life as a white person and that 494 00:25:36,400 --> 00:25:39,280 Speaker 2: experience is fundamentally different from like the way that I 495 00:25:39,320 --> 00:25:42,439 Speaker 2: go through life, and you need to acknowledge that and 496 00:25:42,560 --> 00:25:45,800 Speaker 2: vice versa. Yeah, if you're in an interracial relationship and 497 00:25:45,840 --> 00:25:47,720 Speaker 2: you haven't had that conversation, you need to have it 498 00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:48,320 Speaker 2: right now. 499 00:25:48,440 --> 00:25:50,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, you need to buckle up. I think it's an 500 00:25:50,440 --> 00:25:55,440 Speaker 1: important conversation to have directly. You know, there's indirect moments 501 00:25:55,480 --> 00:25:58,760 Speaker 1: where the only way for your white partner to learn 502 00:25:58,880 --> 00:26:01,920 Speaker 1: is for them to experience and like see or hear 503 00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:05,399 Speaker 1: with their own eyes and ears or like hey, like 504 00:26:05,480 --> 00:26:07,600 Speaker 1: you know that was a microaggression, like what that person 505 00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:10,560 Speaker 1: just did and when you when you break it down, Yeah, 506 00:26:10,640 --> 00:26:13,119 Speaker 1: this has happened with Bridge and I several times, but 507 00:26:13,200 --> 00:26:15,879 Speaker 1: you know she probably like Seth. I think to be 508 00:26:15,920 --> 00:26:19,560 Speaker 1: able to survive in an interracial relationship, you got to 509 00:26:19,600 --> 00:26:23,040 Speaker 1: be with a person that can understand and quickly adapt 510 00:26:23,080 --> 00:26:25,880 Speaker 1: to recognizing how important it is to like go through 511 00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:29,040 Speaker 1: this stuff because you can't be oblivious to it. My 512 00:26:29,080 --> 00:26:32,480 Speaker 1: feelings could get hurt by something maybe she won't understand, 513 00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:34,480 Speaker 1: and I'll have to just like kind of explain, like, hey, 514 00:26:34,480 --> 00:26:37,080 Speaker 1: like this is why this hurt my feelings, because yeah, 515 00:26:37,160 --> 00:26:39,679 Speaker 1: bubba ble, you know, like that was bullshit. I did it. 516 00:26:40,040 --> 00:26:42,000 Speaker 2: There's a lot of that being like that was a 517 00:26:42,040 --> 00:26:45,480 Speaker 2: microaggression and you probably it probably was not even a 518 00:26:45,520 --> 00:26:49,080 Speaker 2: blip on your radar, but like I knew it, and 519 00:26:49,160 --> 00:26:51,280 Speaker 2: I saw it, and I'm going to explain it to you, 520 00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:53,920 Speaker 2: and you need to know that the reason you didn't 521 00:26:53,960 --> 00:26:56,959 Speaker 2: register it is probably because you're white. 522 00:26:57,280 --> 00:27:01,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly. We should make like a guide for interracial relationship. 523 00:27:02,119 --> 00:27:03,920 Speaker 1: It's just one page. It's just a few lines. It's 524 00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:06,480 Speaker 1: exactly what you said. It's you don't understand this because 525 00:27:06,480 --> 00:27:08,520 Speaker 1: you're white. You need to listen to what I'm saying. 526 00:27:08,880 --> 00:27:10,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, just believe me what I tell you that was 527 00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:11,960 Speaker 2: a microaggression. 528 00:27:13,600 --> 00:27:16,359 Speaker 1: Do you remember any specific microaggressions that you've had to 529 00:27:16,400 --> 00:27:17,080 Speaker 1: point out. 530 00:27:17,160 --> 00:27:20,359 Speaker 2: When someone asked me if I worship cows. 531 00:27:20,680 --> 00:27:21,879 Speaker 1: Is that a microaggression? 532 00:27:22,960 --> 00:27:25,120 Speaker 2: I mean, well, it's sort of like the assumption that 533 00:27:25,240 --> 00:27:29,240 Speaker 2: I value cows. I think we were at a restaurant 534 00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:32,520 Speaker 2: once and I like, ordered a steak and some moments like, 535 00:27:32,560 --> 00:27:36,120 Speaker 2: well that has beef. That kind of stuff happens a lot. 536 00:27:36,440 --> 00:27:39,080 Speaker 1: Wow, it's quite unfortunate that we have to live in 537 00:27:39,080 --> 00:27:41,399 Speaker 1: a world where that is an issue. But I think 538 00:27:42,040 --> 00:27:44,760 Speaker 1: for me as a Southerner as well, for you, you know, 539 00:27:44,840 --> 00:27:47,159 Speaker 1: moving to New York. I love New Orleans, but I 540 00:27:47,200 --> 00:27:49,480 Speaker 1: was always itching to get to a place where I 541 00:27:49,520 --> 00:27:52,640 Speaker 1: wouldn't literally be spit on at soccer practice or whatever 542 00:27:52,640 --> 00:27:54,960 Speaker 1: it is that I'm doing. So I think the community 543 00:27:55,000 --> 00:27:58,639 Speaker 1: here has been very welcoming and very open for people 544 00:27:58,680 --> 00:27:59,080 Speaker 1: like us. 545 00:27:59,359 --> 00:28:04,240 Speaker 2: Yes, I do. I still witness microaggressions or instances of 546 00:28:04,280 --> 00:28:08,119 Speaker 2: implicit bias, yes, but I love living in the city. 547 00:28:08,240 --> 00:28:11,879 Speaker 2: I love walking around neighborhoods and it not just being 548 00:28:12,240 --> 00:28:14,760 Speaker 2: white people. I love that you can have every type 549 00:28:14,800 --> 00:28:17,680 Speaker 2: of food you want here. Obviously many of those things 550 00:28:17,720 --> 00:28:20,159 Speaker 2: are true in parts of the South as well, But 551 00:28:20,600 --> 00:28:23,119 Speaker 2: New York is pretty incredible for all those things. 552 00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:26,800 Speaker 1: New York is incredible. You work for The New York Times, 553 00:28:26,960 --> 00:28:29,920 Speaker 1: which is also an incredible I actually think that's how 554 00:28:30,000 --> 00:28:32,680 Speaker 1: I Besides your book, I think I had definitely seen, 555 00:28:33,119 --> 00:28:36,440 Speaker 1: you know, or read articles that you've written more recently. 556 00:28:36,600 --> 00:28:38,800 Speaker 1: You were were you in the Bronx. 557 00:28:39,200 --> 00:28:43,440 Speaker 2: I was in the Bronx at a hot dog factory. 558 00:28:43,520 --> 00:28:45,040 Speaker 1: What were you doing at the hot dog factory? 559 00:28:45,200 --> 00:28:50,320 Speaker 2: I was doing a video about how hot dogs are made. 560 00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:56,160 Speaker 1: Hot dogs that are packaged and sold in stores, or 561 00:28:56,240 --> 00:28:59,000 Speaker 1: hot dogs that are like made at like school. 562 00:28:58,960 --> 00:29:02,000 Speaker 2: Like both. It was the Sabrett hot Dog Factory, and 563 00:29:02,040 --> 00:29:05,440 Speaker 2: they manufacture hot dogs that are sold at baseball games, 564 00:29:05,480 --> 00:29:09,160 Speaker 2: sold by street venders, sold at grocery stores. They're like 565 00:29:09,280 --> 00:29:12,000 Speaker 2: the New York City hot dog and they're factories in 566 00:29:12,040 --> 00:29:12,520 Speaker 2: the Bronx. 567 00:29:13,080 --> 00:29:15,680 Speaker 1: Wow, it's just such a New York thing to say, like, 568 00:29:15,920 --> 00:29:18,360 Speaker 1: I went to the Bronx learn how to make some 569 00:29:18,400 --> 00:29:22,040 Speaker 1: hot dogs that permeate the entire city. Speaking of the 570 00:29:22,040 --> 00:29:24,320 Speaker 1: New York Times, what's going on? Are you comfortable talking 571 00:29:24,360 --> 00:29:26,400 Speaker 1: about what's going on yesterday and today? 572 00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:29,120 Speaker 2: Yeah? I don't know when this is coming out, so 573 00:29:29,160 --> 00:29:30,760 Speaker 2: I don't know what state we will be in, but 574 00:29:31,320 --> 00:29:33,120 Speaker 2: I am a part of the New York Times Guild. 575 00:29:33,240 --> 00:29:36,280 Speaker 2: I'm thankful to be part of a unionized workplace. And 576 00:29:36,440 --> 00:29:39,760 Speaker 2: we have been negotiating with management for a fair contract 577 00:29:39,840 --> 00:29:43,800 Speaker 2: for two years and basically have yet to get what 578 00:29:43,840 --> 00:29:45,880 Speaker 2: we see as a fair contract. So we had a 579 00:29:45,960 --> 00:29:49,320 Speaker 2: twenty four hour walkout yesterday in which we did not work. 580 00:29:49,360 --> 00:29:52,280 Speaker 2: We encourage people to not use New York Times services 581 00:29:52,320 --> 00:29:55,600 Speaker 2: for twenty four hours in the hopes that management would 582 00:29:56,160 --> 00:29:58,240 Speaker 2: recognize our worth and come to the table with a 583 00:29:58,280 --> 00:30:02,440 Speaker 2: fair contract. Hell yeah, fingers crossed that it leads to 584 00:30:03,320 --> 00:30:06,960 Speaker 2: the change we're hoping for, because there are people who 585 00:30:07,200 --> 00:30:09,640 Speaker 2: do really vital work for the New York Times who 586 00:30:09,880 --> 00:30:12,440 Speaker 2: are not paid even close to what they ought to 587 00:30:12,480 --> 00:30:15,040 Speaker 2: be paid and have not gotten a raise in two years. 588 00:30:15,200 --> 00:30:23,040 Speaker 1: M mm hmm.
