Jay Duplass: Mom's Lasagna

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!  * Become a Cascade PBS member [https://secure.cascadepublicmedia.org/page/133995/donate/1?ref=cascadepbs.org]and support public media!    * Watch Rachel’s Cascade PBS TV show The Nosh with Rachel Belle.
