After launching in 2009 and running for an incredible 17 seasons, our beloved educational program, Meat + Three, is wrapping up—for now.
Over the past six months, our team, as well as the rest of the country, has experienced a lot of grief and heartache. This shared experience brought us into conversations about how food can act as an intimate and integral part of mourning.
The stories in this episode include a visit to a temple to explore how food, ritual, and memory come together, a talk with a death doula, the recipes that remind us to connect with the ones who are still here—as well as a few familiar ones from seasons past.
Stick around until the end of the episode for a special conversation between Hosts and Executive Producers H Conley and Taylor Early, a love note, if you will, to Meat + Three and the community of storytellers who have contributed to the airwaves over the past seasons!
