This is a special episode of The Jiffy Newsletter Podcast: For my ongoing series, "This Old Vibe," we are invited into the Hudson home of chef, author, and artist, Susan Simon to try and understand just what makes a Hudson Valley home a "Hudson Valley home."

This is the first time anybody has ever invited us into their home, and it is also the first time we're taking the podcast out of the studio and into a real life scenario. So much could have gone wrong. But thankfully, we had a fun time, and nobody was injured.

It's a Susan Simon Super Special episode, and you can see photos of Susan's house at the James Cave Instagram Feed: @jamescave (link here: https://www.instagram.com/jamescave)
