In the first episode of BEHIND, we wanna tease out the complicated knot that is trying to “adult” while working as a manager in the restaurant industry especially if you’re stuck in a cycle of addiction. Featured in this episode is our friend Alexander Gallant, musician and former restaurant worker. He explains why he won’t be returning to restaurant work even though he spent the majority of his twenties doing this work.This is a warning that we will talk about alcohol and substances in this episode. Cover art for this episode was illustrated by Betty Rose aka The Papa ArtistBEHIND is written and produced by Arianne Persaud and Stefhan Iwaskow Links to articles, books and organizations mentioned in this episode:PRIYA KRISHNA “HOW TO SAVE RESTAURANTS” OPINION PIECE IN NY TIMES BOSS BARISTA PODCASTALEXANDER GALLANT’S ALBUM FRESH HELL ON BANDCAMPTHE BODY KEEPS THE SCORE BESSEL VAN DER KOLKCOREY MINTZ “ONTARIO’S RESTAURANT CRISIS IS A MENTAL HEALTH CRISIS TOO” TVO OPINION PIECE NOT 9TO5ATLANTIC PHOTO SERIES, “NOT WHERE THEY HOPED THEY’D BE”THE CHAAD PROJECT
