Sewers of Paris: All of Your Passions Together (Ep 421 - Max Miller/Tasting History)
🕑 Added 2023-04-20 16:01:00 +0000 UTCOn this week's Sewers of Paris podcast, we’re diving into the archives to revisit my 2020 interview with Max Miller. He’s the creator of the Tasting History YouTube channel, and author of the new book Tasting History, which comes out this week. In Max’s video series, he shares historical recipes and intriguing stories about the origin of the foods that humans have eaten throughout history, and his book expands on that work. It was inspired, in part, by Max’s appreciation for The Great British Bakeoff, and at first he didn’t intend for his videos to be anything other than a fun hobby to entertain family and friends — which is why nobody was more surprised than him when it took off, making unexpected use of his background in musical theater and his time swinging from the rafters of a cruise ship.
Also, a reminder that I’ve got a book of my own about to come out in May — tracing the history of queer characters on American sitcoms and entitled Hi Honey, I’m Homo. I’ll be hosting live book readings around the country to celebrate launch! So far we have New York, Chicago, and Seattle on the calendar, and we’re about to add Portland. Plus there’s more on the way. Check out the details at gaysitcoms.com, or subscribe to my weekly newsletter for all the latest at mattbaume.com.

Holy cats! When one person I watch religiously, support on Patreon, and have pre-ordered the book interviews someone I watch religiously and support on Patreon (though admit I haven't ordered his book yet). :) Can't wait to listen.
