SideCar Podcast, with Jen Coleslaw
A once a week update on all things food/family/community/gardening/whatever! We call it SideCar—if it has to do with rituals around food and holidays, making food, or taking it places, or remembering what we were eating during important times in our lives, we’ll talk about it here.
(The entire first season and part of the second season can be currently found under the Two Chocolate Cakes podcast feed, while I move all the episodes over to this feed)

Sidecar: The Retrospective Episode
Season 3, Episode 9
Show notes
I have been listening to all my old episodes to try to get some kind of sense of what the hell I have been talking about all this time.
There are pumpkins at the farmers market, and apples, but so far not the apples I'm looking for.
The food holidays for October are great.
Please consider joining the patreon so I can pay off my hearing aids.
But if you can't support that way, maybe you could recommend the podcast so I can grow my audience? Maybe encourage folks to start with Two Chocolate Cakes podcast? Thanks!!
(the sound is a little weird because I was recording on a new laptop and I hate it)

SideCar: JANUARY !! 20 is coming
Season 3, Episode 1
Show notes
I wrote this twice and the first draft was ragey and the second draft is less rage but really got wore out and so this is not well edited. More talk about the fires in LA than about incoming administration. I didn't cry once! My voice is still just that scratchy.
You win a prize if you can tell me how many times a cat sneezed while I was recording. Also, which cat.
Wondering if there's a live cameo for letting people facetime with my pets.
