Before we get started, I wanted to say a special thank you to Blue Apron for supporting so many indie podcasters.

Blue Apron's mission is to make incredible home cooking accessible to everyone, and they're doing it by supporting a more sustainable food system.

Because Blue Apron ships the exact amount of each ingredient required for a recipe, they're reducing food waste.

Those who spend a lot at restaurants or high-end grocery chains can now spend under $10 per person for a delicious meal.

Like one of my favorites, creamy shrimp rolls with quick pickles and sweet potato wedges.

I love Blue Apron, not just because it reduces waste and saves me money.

I also love the time-saving aspect.

Last week, I was on my way home from a late appointment and too tired to stop for groceries.

I was doomed to eat circle-shaped pasta from a can.

But there it was, waiting for me, my Blue Apron box. And 30 minutes later,

I was eating delicious, real food. Blue Apron's freshness guarantee is another reason that I love

them, because it promises that every ingredient in your delivery arrives ready to cook,

or they'll make it right. Check out this week's menu and get your first three meals free with free shipping by going

to blue apron.com slash actual.

You'll love how good it feels and taste to create incredible home-cooked meals with

Blue Apron.

So don't wait.

That's blue apron.com slash actual.

Blue Apron, a better way to cook.

Good morning.
