In Russell Simmons own words, we’ve got an ‘esoteric rap going on’ and we get into ‘some far-out sh*t’ on this episode of "The Dinner Party with Elysabeth Alfano". Over some Kendall Jackson’s Vintner’s Reserve Pinot Gris and delicious dishes from Cafe Gratitude, Russell and I dish on his life and business philosophy, the importance of being vegan and his newest book, "The Happy Vegan".
There’s nothing like some home-made salads and a little Kendall-Jackson, Jackson Estate Chardonnay, Santa Maria Valley to bring out the super funny in comedians-actresses Lori Alan and Mary Birdsong. Over dishes I whipped up myself and KJ wine on the most recent episode of "The Dinner Party with Elysabeth Alfano", Lori, Mary and I dish on food fetishes, the new world of media and animation and working with Lena Dunham.
