This week we're joined by Jan Faust Dane for a conversation about keeping things local, and the value of community. Jan has been a writer, marketer, food dorager and a director of culinary education. Now she spends all of her time (and more) running Stock Culinary Goods - an independent store dedicated to kitchen culture.

Topics include willing a business into being, a lifetime love of food, the importance of local culture, how to sustain a brick-and-mortar retail business in a massively online world, and having the energy and drive to get it all done.
