Introducing: Proof

While we work on more upcoming stories from Feet in 2 Worlds, we want to share some great episodes from other podcasts we think you’ll like.

This story comes from our friends at Proof from America’s Test Kitchen. It’s a podcast that dives deep into the unexpected backstories behind food and drinks, while examining the human stories that intersect along the way.

This episode follows the journey of the Shinta and Kawahara families — from immigration, to incarceration, to the present day. Proof reporter Hannah Kirshner travels to Watsonville, California, to report how Japanese-Americans — through their resilience — used ingenuity to help turn strawberries from a seasonal fruit to one that's available year-round. The episode was hosted by Proof’s previous host, Kevin Pang.
