Food 'n' Drink Reporter Roundtable

RacketCast

It's the first RacketCast episode of 2025!

Before '24 ended, we reviewed the year in music, bozos, politics, and movies, though we didn't have time to bite off a biggie: food 'n' drink. So, for this ep, we recruited two great dining writer/reporters—James Norton (Heavy Table) and Justine Jones (formerly of Eater Twin Cities)—to hashbrown out the year that was, assess the state of the local restaurant scene, and make bold predictions for what you'll be ingesting during the next 11.5 months.

Here are the two articles Em and Jay mention up top:

• How to Win Votes and Influence Neighbors: City Politics as a Way Forward in Dire Times
• Read an Excerpt From ‘The Many Facets of Eyedea,’ a New Oral History on the Celebrated MN Rapper
