“When you’re doing the right thing, people want to help”

October 24, 2018 Mischa Nachtigal

For the season finale of That Moment, we’re talking about food—our relationship to it, how we find it, and what it provides for us beyond just sustenance.

First up, host Doree Shafrir talks to Miry Whitehill, who started Miry's List, an organization that pairs new arrivals in the US with the resources they need. Miry started the organization after a chance meeting with a Syrian mother. She quickly discovered that food doesn't just bridge cultures—it can help families get back on their feet.

Then we talk to Ryan Kean, VP of Technology, Strategy, and Architecture at Kroger, who helps keep the grocery company ahead of the curve. One of the topics we discuss is Kroger EDGE, a smart shelf display that makes food shopping a customizable and futuristic experience.
