While watching you kungfu interview across the floor someone had the funniest 'Something About Mary' comment on 'Don't touch my earphones'.
ReplyDeleteThat was quite a little (heh) gathering. We were guessing somewhere in the 200 range.
Love the podcast crossover- kinda had the Green-Hornet-appears-on-Batman feel.

When you told me Dan ran away, I thought you were joking. It's probably good he didn't get on mic.
ReplyDeleteBTW, I'm glad you acknowledged that you were being a bit dicky to the Ethiopian guy - he was really cool.
Hailu Gebrehiwot really was awesome. We should hear so much more from people like him, who are involved in coffee from the "other side" of the intercontinental relationship.
ReplyDeleteAs for Nick's attitude, it did sound a bit less reverential than it could have been. But it had the merit of being rather honest. This said from the perspective of an anthropologist.
Geoff Watts' discussion (at about 44 minutes into the podcast) about methods to reward quality coffee above and beyond fair-trade was quite insightful. Sure, the CoE program is meant to accomplish similar goals. But the discussion at least helped me to put things in perspective.
More talk about the Third Wave, please!
Thanks a lot!
I love this article.
