Brian Reisinger on his book Land Rich Cash Poor and the future of farming
Brian Reisinger discusses his family farm, farming history and government regulation over time, and what it will take to keep farming viable.
Farming has been subject to many forces, some natural and some man-made. Brian and I discuss what is causing the loss of over 40,000 farms per year and how that can be slowed or stopped.

The World Trade Center rubble from the cockpit of a plane
Over 23 years much has been offered about the World Trade Center buildings collapse. What is not much discussed is what did that site look like on the Friday after? It isn't much discussed because not too many people saw it. My guest was the first commercial pilot to fly over Ground Zero and we discuss what he saw.

What is possible with pasta, dried or fresh, is so extensive that covering it all would take a lifetime.The text for the show is at the bottom of the show notes page where you'll find the recipes ingredients listed in the text body.Culinarylibertarian.com/296

Mise en place to replace a master cylinder
Mise en place, everything in its place, is not restricted to the kitchen. Any task that has stuff benefits from having that stuff in order.Changing a master cylinder requires getting stuff in order. The chief issue is if this is a task outside of your wheelhouse, how do you know what stuff you need? Watch YouTube and visualize.

Ep 294 Escoffier Series, Ch 13, Rice, Tomatoes, and Truffles
Rice, tomatoes, and truffles. Two of those seem a stretch to add to a vegetables chapter, but here we are. We'll cover some basic cooking for rice, which seems always to flummox people. I offer a useful, basic procedure for Rice Pilaf, as well as some ideas for innovation to that dish. There's also a spontaneous invention of a stuffed tomato idea that might be fun to eat.
