Ep #18 - Why do we watch recipe videos on YouTube that we never plan on making ourselves?

The Why Coordinate

May 22 2021 • 39 mins

Have you ever watched a complicated recipe video on YouTube that you had absolutely no intention of recreating in the kitchen? Today we are joined by our guest from Argentina, José Pérez Ballester (IG: @joseperezballester) to talk about just that. We also talk about our favourite chefs on the internet, how Masterchef made the whole world interested in new cuisines. Food, cuisine and diet also is an inherent part of our identity, sometimes even a sociopolitical statement.


We hope you enjoy it and stick around for future episodes! Feel free to give us some feedback on our email thewhycoordinate@gmail.com or by sending us a DM on Instagram @thewhycoordinate.


The Why Coordinate is a weekly podcast where we discuss the why behind human society and behavior. Following it up with lessons from pop culture and our own experiences to lead a more intentional, efficient and happy life. Hosted by Anagh Narain (Finance Bro and Technology Geek) and Akshita Saxena (Data Analyst and Travel Enthusiast).
