Charles Grantham stops by from the Food Film Festival to explain the concept of the event. Later, he goes into the juicy details of food porn! George Motz, the founder of the Food Film Festival, calls in to talk about what's new for this year's event. Hear about Sunday's oyster roast, and what it means to George and his family culture. This episode has been brought to you by Tekserve.

"The side of your brain that appreciates sexual pornography also enjoys food and food pornography." [46:00] -- George Motz on Snacky Tunes

This week, Finger On The Pulse preview their special dinner with Ben Hudson of Brooklyn Brewery & Dave Colston of Prime Meats. Also on the show, VDRK & OCD.

This week on Snacky Tunes Finger on the Pulse pop a few corks with Johnny Cigar and Brian Quinn of The Noble Rot, a sort of traveling wine saloon that acts as a wine-centric foil to the various food-centric supper clubs in NYC. They talked about wine's potential to intimidate, delicious super-cheap bottles, and the questionable benefits of cork-smelling. Musical guests Surfer Blood came by the studio for an amazing acoustic live set. They also talked about their first tour in a high end (and bee filled) tour bus, playing CMJ, internet critics, and a nostalgic look back at the band's first surge in popularity.
