On today’s episode, Darin sits down with Chris Bleidorn (Executive Chef/Co-Owner), Aarti Shetty (Co-Owner) of Birdsong & Birdbox in San Francisco. The couple chats about how they met, their road to opening up their first restaurant and their pandemic pivot, which lead to the viral, fried chicken sandwich sensation, known as “Claude the Claw”.  Then we open the archives for a 2016 interview and performance from Michael Daves.  He stopped by to celebrate the release of his seminal album, Orchids and Violence.
