In this episode, we\\u2019re talking about dads. Their influence on us, the things they taught or didn\\u2019t teach us, and how we do or don\\u2019t follow in their footsteps. That\\u2019s actually a small part of this conversation with Dave Infante, but perhaps the most surprising and fun piece of it all. Come for the dad talk, stick around for a reflection on alcoholic milk, labor relations, journalism, and more.

It\\u2019s an eclectic lineup of topics, but if you\\u2019re familiar with Dave, it may not be surprising. As a two-time James Beard Foundation award winner, he\\u2019s earned one of the highest recognitions for journalists covering food and beverage. He\\u2019s currently a writer-at-large for VinePair and the reporter behind Fingers, an alcohol-focused newsletter that covers the space where booze and culture connect. Dave\\u2019s archive of stories spans clickbait on Thrillist about hating IPAs to investigative pieces uncovering the crowdfunding finances of BrewDog.

If there\\u2019s something culturally-relevant that\\u2019s taken place in beverage alcohol, Dave has likely been on it, and you\\u2019ll get the chance to better understand his work and motivations in this conversation. You\\u2019ll also get to learn about his dad.
