Zahir Janmohamed and Soleil Ho first met at a party in Portland, Oregon, where they discussed racism and sexism in the Portland restaurant industry.

They named the podcast The Racist Sandwich after a local Portland school principal was incorrectly accused of labeling peanut butter and jelly sandwiches as racist.
