On today's episode I wanted to explore the idea of understanding the narrative.  Lot's of times we are told what the narrative is in a situation and we throw our common sense out the window to believe it.  Sometimes your gut tells you the real narrative and you are just afraid to go against what your are being told.  Also today I make a version of a surf and turf using two of my favorite proteins, duck and scallops. Support the show
