Open Wide Nena

Our show is about the intersectionality of gastronomy, social activism and pleasure. We are two Black femmes who are curating the vast and deep pleasure of culinary experiences. Our favorite conversations are the ones that take place while seated at the table. Those conversations can run the gamut of heartwarming to enraging, but we’ve always left with a better sense of ourselves or a new perspective of the world. We want to share those conversations with you! You should listen if you are interested in learning more about the stories & complexities tied to what goes on your plate.
