Dan Pfeiffer, Dim Sum

"Pod Save America" co-host Dan Pfeiffer ate approximately 520 meals inside the White House when he worked 24/7 as President Barack Obama's Senior Advisor. What was the White House menu like? We will explore! Spoiler alert: the butter is molded into the shape of the Great Seal of the United States, and senior White House staff are eating PBaJ for lunch. On this week's episode of YLM, we take a deep dive into dim sum with Clarissa Wei, a Hong Kong based food writer and senior reporter for Goldthread. She explains why dim sum carts are going out of vogue and dumpling-obessed Rachel confesses that the carts give her anxiety. Plus, the TV show Dan watches to decompress when news and politics get him down.  Pick up Dan's new book, "Yes We (Still) Can: Politics in the Age of Obama, Twitter and Trump." Check out Clarissa's work here. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
