Hey guys, it's Joe.

Anybody who knows me knows that I love to throw down in the kitchen.

That's an interest I share with Interpol's Sam Fogarino.

You can listen to Sam's entire episode on iTunes or on the past episodes page at the trapset.net.

But here's a bonus outtake wherein we discuss our mutual love of cooking.

Bon Appetit.

I did a little hack research before I came over here, and I looked at your Wikipedia page,

and the word is that you are quite the chef.

It's amazing how this over the years has just turned into a chef status.

So, Fogorino, and it says that your your specialty is pasta

makes sense right yeah did your dad cook did your mom cook my dad was an awful cook he was so he was so

bad he'd laugh at himself but then he he became a pretty good cook later in life.

My mom always cooked grandmother.

Was your mom Italian?

Yeah, I'm all.

You're 100%.

100%.

98% Sicilian.

Okay.

But my grandmother, when I was growing up in West Philadelphia, she had a backyard that was like maybe, you know, 20 square feet. I mean, it was a patch. And she grew tomatoes and bell peppers and cucumbers and lettuce. And so this whole farm to table movementtable movement, like, I experienced in, like, you know, downtrodden,

disenfranchised West Philadelphia as a kid and really didn't.

Isn't it funny how yuppies fetishize, like, peasant lifestyle?
