“But when he died nearly five years ago, I realized that it wasn’t Anthony Bourdain who I wanted to copy so much as he was someone who gave me the vocabulary to describe what was important to me.” https://open.substack.com/pub/charliebecker/p/beyond-food-and-travel-remembering

This place is awesome. What are the rules on creating a channel? If I want to create a fan channel for a deceased writer, can I just name the channel their last name? I see the rules in the doc I found the below, but I’m wondering if there is some kind of etiquette? https://docs.farcaster.xyz/learn/what-is-farcaster/channels#:~:text=Anyone%20can%20create%20a%20channel,hosts%20to%20operate%20the%20channel.

I'm working on an essay about Anthony Bourdain now, and it's crazy to me re-watching this intro sequence for his first show, A Cook's Tour. First, it was over twenty years ago! Second, it's wild how much his voiceover still resonates with me but in a very different fashion.

I don’t think another show made me feel more feelings and immersion by saying less. I write a roundup of the best stuff I watched/read/listened to every Month. I was recovering from surgery in May so this is a double, but from May-June Scavengers Reign was the best thing I watched. Did anybody else see it?

DO THE WEIRDEST THING THAT FEELS RIGHT. Good evening new followers! I’m a dad, writer, second generation seconhand bookseller, and small business strategy professor. I’m most “known” for my Substack, and this is the one of the two most popular posts there. From the Farcaster vibe so far, I think you’ll enjoy it! https://charliebecker.substack.com/p/do-the-weirdest-thing-that-feels

So like, if just cast out here does anyone see it? Is there a good primer on how to do this right? I really like this place

I tried the “closing shift” ADHD hack to get 20-30 minutes of cleaning done at night without getting carried away. I figured I needed a good playlist for it. Two hours later I have a SICK playlist and a sink full of dishes.

What’s currently the best free resource to learn to code? Assume I have no specific goals, I just want to do it for intellectual enrichment.
