Description

Marissa’s guests this week are Major Garrett, CBS News Chief and White House Correspondent and David Becker of the Center for Election Innovation and Research. Together they’ve written a must-read book called The Big Truth: Upholding Democracy in the Age of the Big Lie, an eye-opening read full of warnings about the future of democracy, but with hope at its heart. They’ll discuss how the midterms are a bellwether for American democracy, the importance of taverns to Founding Fathers, and speaking of which, David shares his exceptional recipe for old-fashioned cocktails.

At The Secret Life of Cookies we know that kitchens are the heart of the home. They’re where families come together, where food comes from and where some of the best conversations take place. Kitchens are where the power is (even nasty President Jackson with his “kitchen cabinet” thought so), and where the baked goods are, which is why Marissa Rothkopf, the host, spends so much time in the kitchen. On The Secret Life of Cookies we will bring you into those conversations with some smart, interesting people who like to cook and have something to say. Pull up a chair up at our kitchen table, and join us as we cook and discuss the important issues of today.    Marissa Rothkopf is a professionally trained chef and food writer who has done everything from restaurant reviews for the New York Times to writing a column on kitchen gadgets for Newsweek. She teaches journalism at Montclair State University and gets nervous when asked to make custard.
