Colleen and Carolyn travel to Jackson Heights, Queens, NY to the home of Ethan Frisch. Together, they converse on the farmer's role in the value chain, and the clear differences in flavor between freshly harvested spices and those that sit in warehouses for years before making it home.

This episode also features Ethnomusicologist Danielle Maggio for a segment on how globalization has affected music-making and music listening. Danielle poses the question: what exactly is world music?
