(10 second delay in beginning) This was a fun story to cover. Adam, Adrian and I decided to cover Freeganism in NYC as our final project when we attended Stony Brook University Manhattan.

Dumpster diving with Janet Kalish and Urban foraging in Prospect Park with Wildman Steve Brill is part of the package.
