This special episode is a live recording of the World's Biggest Family Meal, a global hospitality gathering supporting the food industry. We joined WBFM’s founder and host, Leiti Hsu, in a lively conversation with Lara Gilmore and Chef Massimo Bottura about music, food and the couple’s important work with their Food for Soul project. Food for Soul is currently building Refettorio Harlem, and we encourage you to please lend your support to the cause.

For the musical portion of this episode we tap into our archives. We originally had DRAMA on the show back in the summer of 2018. The Chicago R&B / dance duo composed of producer Na’el Shehade and vocalist Via Rosa regaled us with stories of how they collaborate on both making music and building restaurants. (Via’s a chef and Na’el is a restaurateur.) DRAMA recently dropped a new single with Gorgon City called “You’ve Done Enough.”
