Tim runs through a grim week of news (Dallas and Baton Rouge police killings, the Nice terror attack, the failed Turkish coup) juxtaposed absurdly against his own great week eating burrata at Quality Meats.
- 1:43Tim notes that podcasts usually have relatively stable weeks between episodes, but this time there's been a race war and the world is falling apart.
- 2:06Multiple police killings in Dallas and Baton Rouge, a terrorist attack in Nice with nearly 100 deaths, and a suspicious coup attempt in Turkey that Erdogan may have staged to consolidate power.
- 2:42Tim pivots to a great burrata he had at Quality Meats with green summer strawberries, which was phenomenal.
- 3:08The burrata was prepared with fig balsamic, and Tim reflects that global catastrophe and personal dining experiences impact people very differently.
