Josh Fryday contacts John Podesta as a job reference for Andrea Purse (former employee at Center for American Progress source: http://thehubproject.org/andrea-purse/, an organization linked to John Podesta. Then completely off-topic, Josh Fryday writes: "Hoping to make pig roast..."

Email correspondence between John and Tony Podesta. John lets Tony know that he arrived at his hotel in London and that he's doing ok. Email is unrelated to food until John writes: "Don't ask me to lift the pig."

Tony wants to meet John at Maialino restaurant at the Gramercy Park Hotel in NYC. Maialino does NOT mean "pig roast" in Italian as Tony Podesta suggests. It means little pig or piglett, am I wrong?
Something else off: Maialino's is NOT on 21st and Park Ave., it is on Lexington Ave.

Mae Podesta, daughter of John Podesta, forwards a T-shirt design with a pig image on it (supposedly for the 4th annual Podesta Pig Roast, search "podesta pig roast" on wikileaks) to John Podesta and others and asks him: " . . .do you like version with this pig or pig with fork in butt?"

Tony invites James Alefantis to the 4th Annual Podesta family pig roast. James email address is: [email protected] (verified here https://wikileaks.org/podesta-emails/emailid/19761)). He writes: "We are partying Sunday night. Sent you an invite but know how busy you are . . Come when you can early 600 or after book club."
Any thoughts? Will create another post for other very bizarre emails not related to code word "pig."

When these emails were first dragged out on dncleaks we noted that emails number 4 is indicating a pig roast ( outdoor ) in late October in Washington which is pretty dicey and usually pretty cold. We tracked down the house that this was happening and found a realtor listing for it. There is an outside space in the house for a roast but its not large by any stretch. The pig mails never made any sense to us, good cover to use food as code when theres a chef on the email chain.

Thanks for this. I'd like to see more of your research. Do you have more info/sources for the house/listing and you discovered it was connected to the email?
