Adam works with The Brooklyn Feeding Academy, an institution that helps young children overcome feeding difficulties and disorders. Hear how an inability to distinguish food textures can cause some children to perceive certain foods as a threat! How does Adam help children cope with their maladaptations? Freelance Whales come back to Snacky Tunes and play some of their new songs live in the studio! Tune in to hear the band talk live sound troubles, favorite tour mates, and their sophomore record! This program has been brought to you by Tekserve.

"It's so inspiring when you surround yourself with great bands. Sometimes their influence comes in passively." [46:00] -- Freelance Whales on Snacky Tunes

This week on Burning Down the House Curtis and friends speak to Wayne Curtis, journalist and resident of New Orleans ("the Caribbean's northernmost city, rather than the USA's southernmost city"), about post-Katrina development and rebuilding the 9th Ward and beyond. Wayne Curtis brings up a number of issues not touched upon in major media coverage of the disaster, including the fact that Rita, not Katrina, caused the death blow, missed opportunities to create permanent housing (cheaper than dangerous FEMA trailers) prevented by Federal Laws, plus the tension between Brad Pitt / FEMA's rebuilding techniques verses the (admittedly controversial) preferred techniques of the 9th Ward populace. Don't miss this candid and unique debate about rebuilding New Orleans, a city with a history that "values the acquisition of leisure rather than wealth". This episode was sponsored by Fairway: like no other market.
