Episode description as stored

My guest today is a high-level designer and tech visionary who has spent his career at the intersection of human behavior and digital innovation. From building a music curation startup to working at tech giants like Square and Lyft, Mario Gomez-Hall has always been obsessed with one thing: Curation . Growing up with a father who consulted for fisheries, he has a deep-rooted respect for the food industry and the people who make it run. Now, he’s applying that expertise to fix one of the most frustrating parts of being a foodie—finding a place to eat that doesn't suck. We dive into how Zest is flipping the script on discovery. Instead of trusting a stranger’s bad mood on Yelp, Zest uses your actual dining history (via secure credit card linking) and the recommendations of your actual friends to build a personalized flavor map. It’s a tool that stays out of the way and lets the experience take center stage. Download the Zest Maps app from Apple or Google Play stores.
