"Gongfu Tea Journalism" w/ Joel Wolfram

ON THIS EPISODE:

Joel Wolfram is a reporter whose work has appeared in the New York Times, the Philadelphia Inquirer, WHYY, and beyond. Outside of his journalism career, he has cultivated a reputation around his enthusiasm for gongfu tea brewing. I went into this episode with the theory that those aspects of his life worked in a kind of complimentary tension, that the stress of his reporting meant he liked to wind down with a focused, meditative appreciation for tea making. Joel suggested, maybe that's not the relationship at all. Perhaps it works in a different direction.
