In this episode, we go beyond the music conversations we've gotten used to having. Andrew speaks with Maya Chan (as she likes to call herself), or Maya Rose Lederer, the daughter of Andrew's friend saxophonist, composer, and band leader Jeff Lederer. Maya is a super talented young chef who Andrew has known since she was born - calling him Uncle Andrew is not out of the question. During this conversation, Maya speaks about her experience on Master Chef, running a Japanese restaurant in NYC during the pandemic, what it’s like to work front-of-house as a young person, the many ways in which Covid is changing so many industries, sexism in the restaurant industry, what is being done to shift that tide, and more.
