REAL FOOD READS
BOOKCLUB & PODCAST
We’re pleased to have completed the second full
year of our monthly #RealFoodReads podcast and
book club with over 5,000 plays. Through the
podcast, we’ve been able to showcase the work of
some of the most important thinkers and writers on
food system transformation.
By the end of 2018, we had hundreds of readers
join us, from Mexico to Italy, Montana to Illinois.

Books should be a refuge from the daily
firehose of social media. But with so many
new food books out every month, everyone
needs a curator like Anna Lappé and the
team at Real Food Media. The breadth of
their interests ensures that the books by
every foodie's bedside are lively and literate,
and that the conversations around the ideas
are original and surprising. I know this
because my co-author and I were thrilled
that they selected our book, and that the
podcast was one of the most engaging and
thought-provoking that we've yet to have
around our History of the World in Seven
Cheap Things. Thank you Anna and team!
