The Breakfast Dish

Welcome to Season 3 of The Breakfast Dish! Join Griffin Cork and his mom, Karen Johnson-Diamond every Monday morning for get-to-know-you conversations with the artists behind today's dance, music, visual art, and theatre. This podcast is dairy and gluten free!

This week, Karen and Griffin finally convince the Great One to come onto their weird little podcast. And by the Great One, we of course mean Oma (or Sandy Moser as she's known to most governments). Sandy is Karen's mom and Griffin's grandma, and they all kind of talk about the upcoming documentary that Griffin directed about Sandy aptly titled "OMA" - but we'll be honest, this is easily our most chaotic and tangential episode yet.
