The Heritage Radio Network
Imagine a talk radio station where in place of traffic reporters and political analysts the hosts are food-forward urban homesteaders, culinary scientists, and chefs. Welcome to the Heritage Radio Network. Started in 2009 by Patrick Martins, founder of Slow Food USA, the nonprofit webcast is devoted to all things gustatory, with an indie twist. The 26 programs—all fast, loose, and esoteric—are broadcast from inside two repurposed shipping containers in the garden of Roberta's, a restaurant that has been ground zero for the Brooklyn food movement. Whether it's dairy discussions on cheesemonger Anne Saxelby's Cutting the Curd, profiles of the people behind the products on writer Rachel Wharton's Meet Your Maker, or Taste Matters, an exploration of why we like what we like with Mitchell Davis of the James Beard Foundation, these shows all have one thing in common: They're never canned, always fresh.
