👋 OH HEY 👋

Mads here! I just discovered that my girl Asia White (AKA @thefoodiebitch) has a podcast called BRK THT BRD where she and co-host Jeremy McBryde chat mostly about LA food things. The latest episode with the owner of Sunday Gravy is premium 🍝

Oh, did you hear we started a fun TikTok food series featuring our favorite Los Angeles creators? I vlogged us going to their favorite local restaurants in the city all while catching up (and giggling) in the car. You can find it on our TikTok profile under the “Series” tab:

Okay, now on to the coolest things happening this week.
