On today's episode of Stoned Appetit presented by Meraki Cannabis & NOBO Dispensary we recap the gnarly weekend that was in the Low Country of Charleston, SC. 

We sit down with esteemed Chef Rodney Scott, Chefs Emma Cromedy & Chef Semeka Jenkins for a High 5 of Five Questions in Five minutes... but before that we have to break down the whole weekend that was. Give the flowers to those who are responsible for making my work dreams come true and name drop some folks I am now lucky enough to call friends. 

CB will be missing in action for the next few weeks but don't worry, we've got some great folks to fill his shoes while he is away. Tune in for a few laughs, wonderful insight & a lot of Kip gushing about the experience of a lifetime.

One extra shoutout to the wonderful fam from Food & Wine Magazine, Byrdhouse PR, Southern Living, Travel & Leisure for letting me partake in this weekend's festivites... y'all made this hungry stoner's month with all the divine eats and premier access. And a special nod to my sister from another mister, Sarah Abell. Thank you for letting me tag along with you all the time (this weekend included), you're an unbelievable friend and mentor. I love ya and can't tell you how much I value your friendship and guidance.

On this week's episode CB & Kip sit down to talk about their upcoming challenge. The annual fundraister, High West Oyster Fest is this Thursday, benefiting local nonprofit Sophie's Neighborhood.... and we're getting our hands n mouths dirty in the name of a good cause. We're competing, both shucking oysters and trying to knock em back!! But no matter how well (or poorly) we perform, at least we'll be doing it for a good cause.

To learn more about the good cause, Kip sat down with Lauren & Hosea Rosenberg, Sophie's parents, to talk about Sophie's Neighborhood. Sophie's Neighborhood is a nonprofit that raises money to help fund research for their daughter's rare disease, MCOT. It's tough trying to find the definition of the acronym & even more difficult to find a cause or cure. We talk with Lauren & Hosea about the diagnosis as well as the festivities on Thursday too.

Tune in for a few laughs, a little Halloween banter & whole lot of ways you can help out Sophie's Neighborhood.

We hope to see everyone Thursday for a good time for a great cause!
