Episode 270: Goin' Straight Leatherman

Dave is back from Barcelona! Tune in to hear him and Nastassia discuss New York's hipster enclaves, trains, hickory nut syrup, whether or not to add a PID controller to a deep fryer, the closing of Booker and Dax, home brewing with a circulator, smoking pork, melonpan, and how Dave's wife and children are the only thing keeping him from descending into a Leatherman-inspired spiral of existential despair. And if you're in New York or coming to visit, don't miss the opening of the "Chow" exhibit at MOFAD this weekend!
