Hannah Dasher is a country music star and author of the new cookbook Stand By Your Pan, named after her super popular cooking videos enjoyed by her millions of TikTok and Instagram followers. 
Hannah’s house in Nashville is a 1970s time capsule and her kitchen is an avocado green dream, stocked with nostalgic, vintage cookware, including the Tupperware so many of our moms bought at parties. 
It's Tupperware's 80th birthday, and the iconic plastic bowls, not to mention the Tupperware parties, found their place in the American Zeitgeist thanks to a woman named Brownie Wise. Never heard of her? Most haven't. We’ll tell you how she rose to Oprah-level fame in the 1940s and was erased from the history books in a span of a couple years. Plus, the company's fascinating, post-war origin story. 
Hannah and host Rachel Belle also talk about:

The most bizarre food items Hannah has found wrapped in a napkin in her purse

Why she included Naomi Judd's Possum Pie in her cookbook

What foods she insists on making from scratch and which she doesn't mind getting from a box or a can.

And so much more!

Catch Hannah on tour!
To celebrate the big anniversary, Tupperware re-released its Servalier bowls, the ones with the sunburst lids, in the classic 1970s colors, check em out!

Director, producer, writer and filmmaker Jay Duplass is from New Orleans, therefore he sprinkles Tony Chachere’s seasoning on everything, from lasagna to his "white guy huevos rancheros."
Jay tells me:

What foods he gave out to hungry hikers when he was a trail angel on the Pacific Crest Trail

The best condiment packets to steal from gas stations

The worst healthy, hippie food his parents served him growing up

What he ate when he was a struggling filmmaker in Austin, Texas

And I chat with Barry and Sandy Mann, who are perhaps the most famous PCT trail angels -- they've welcomed more than 8,000 thru-hikers into their home!
