SideDish Longmont

In this episode, Eric and Brady discuss Day of the Dead with Ann Macca, Curator of Education at the Longmont Museum.  Eric shows off his lack of knowledge (or what he thought to be true) for Day of the Dead

Brady also blasts Eric for mistakenly reporting a new coffee house on Francis Street has opened.  For the record, Eric doesn't remember making this assertion.

In this episode, Brady has the sock pop up store on the brain and when describing any business he has a tendency to use the same address over and over (yup you guessed it -- 320 Main).

Eric shares his new Spitz  (Brady's pronunciation) Cookie Press while Brady describes it on air (how riveting).  The guys discuss the new caribbean restaurant Island Woman Shanty on 1515 Main Street, Smart Electric Meters, Alfalfa's opening, Medical Marjiuana delivery, the Digital Walking Tour and the relocation of Violet Press.  They also make mention of the last Food Truck Friday on October 30th

The guys discuss the RV issue that the city is wrangling with right now and the impending closure of Regal Cinemas for the year.  We're told that King Soopers on Pace has loads of Pumpkin filling (Eric is a witness) and the City is seeking volunteers for the police review panel. 

The guys welcome Peter Marcus, Communications Director for Terrapin. Terrapin is a leading innovator and one of the nation’s most responsible and successful regulated marijuana companies. Brady is the more knowledgeable about the subject, while Eric lays back trying not to sound dumb at every juncture.  Brady starts out embarrassing Eric about how Smokin Bowls' name was most likely not only created because the food is served hot.

So man puns and so little time...

The guys discuss the opening of Smokin Daves on Main Street, Brady's fuzzy image of a new business (he thinks) in the old Convivium Space (Frost Farms?), changes to County Line Road, and Food Truck Friday.  The guys are proud to have KJ Whitney, owner of Prideful Wellness join the show.  KJ describes how they moved to Longmont by way of Lyons and the D.C. area and how Prideful Wellness offers therapeutic and wellness services for the minds and bodies of queer folk.  Prideful Wellness is expanding and KJ, a serious entrepreneur, has visions on other realms of business - including food trucks.  KJ also jumps into the sandwich discussion by asking the deep question, "Is a Pita a Sandwich?"
