Episode 123: You Are What You Speak
Will continues his conversation with Marvin Bindele, executive director of Foodways Texas at UT-Austin. Last week, we talked about what foodways is.

Episode 121: What’s for Dinner?
A Zagat Hangout on Google + with Chef Tre Wilcox of Top Chef and Village Marquee Grill and Bar gets me thinking about the relationship between making food, working out, and eating well.
