Best of: The Revolutionary Power of a Shared Meal + Alissa Wilkinson

For this Thanksgiving, we return to a favorite episode about food, hosting and the power of conversations around a dinner table.



Because we all need to eat.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! This week, as we take a much needed moment with our loved ones and a break from recording, we wanted to re-up one of our favorite episodes from a few seasons ago of Saved By the City! And what better one to return to over Thanksgiving week, than one about food and hosting? And the power of conversations around a dinner table.


On this episode, Katelyn and Roxy explore the role of the dinner party in family, friendship and the resistance. Sure, fixing food can be tedious and eating it entirely unglamorous but good food and good drink can also be a spark — a spark for creativity, for reflection, for the best kinds of rich conversation. We are joined by film critic, author and dinner host extraordinaire Alissa Wilkinson for lessons on eating well and living loud.
