This week we chat with Marcus Samuelsson - Top Chef, Red Rooster restauranteur, and maker of the world's finest mac & cheese (we've tried it...it's reallll good). He dishes about Ikea meatballs, the flavors of Harlem, and answers Heben's hard-hitting question: is aioli really just gentrified mayo? Plus, Tracy brings us a What Had Happened Was from her days as a college activist/troll for justice. And rounds for furniture and just one thing - you know the one...not that one...thaaaat one. You should probably listen to find out what the hell we're talking about. And we'd love to see you at our next live show in Chicago on June 21st at Thalia Hall!

April 19, 2017 Episode 88: I Got Indian In My Family
This week, we're trying something a little different: we team up with our friends at WNYC's Only Human podcast to find Tracy's roots. Growing up in Louisville, Kentucky, she always heard that her ancestors were, in her mother's words, "black, white and American Indian." But, like many black Americans, she's found it hard to trace her family heritage with ancestors forced into the American slave trade. So Tracy turns to DNA ancestry tests, and experts on DNA and race, to find out where she comes from.
