The Kind Nudibranch and the Garbage Witch head into a Salt Lake City grocery store called Sprouts and discover a super beet drink that maybe should not exist, discuss the possibility of having seen John Leguizamo, and are just their generally charming selves.

The Kind Nudibranch and the Garbage Witch return on January 25th, 2019, to the place where the GW is from. Yep. They were born there, and raised there.  The KN and GW only flew into Vegas because it's affordable, and they planned to drive to Salt Lake City for the Sundance Film Festival. But first they find a really awesome Korean grocery store/food court/plaza in Vegas and it was wonderful. 

The Kind Nudibranch and the Garbage Witch go to Ben Franklin and spend a lot of time talking about sadness, and the reason the KN is in Seattle which is not Thanksgiving, but to participate in Good Mourning, a museum of grieving put together by Casey Middaugh. Even if you don't listen to this podcast I would recommend checking out the wonderful work around grief, that Casey does, because she is wonderful.

The Kind Nudibranch and the Garbage Witch take a quick look around the Glebe in Ottawa before heading to the airport to get the GB back to Seattle. They find an awesome little grocery store, and a bunch of cool murals, and end up eating at Jericho! 

The Kind Nudibranch and the Garbage Witch explore the Pacific Northwest on a whim during one of their visits. They end up in strange and unexpected places, like Astoria (super wonderful) and the Portland Night Market (not their thing). This was the exact episode I needed to hear tonight, weirdly, and I'm grateful for the accidental wisdom of my past self for the needs of my current self. (Having a record of the weird things we say is super...odd)

The Kind Nudibranch and the Garbage Witch meet up in Vancouver, and share stories, and...I guess you could just listen to it and find out. I don't really feel like writing a synopsis tonight, or being all quippy. I guess I just wish I knew what I know now, then. 

The Kind Nudibranch and the Garbage Witch drive to the airport so the Garbage Witch can fly back to Seattle. They think they'll only be separated for 5 months. Almost two years later we know that isn't true, but it is sweet to listen to our optimistic other-selves thinking it.  Visiting our former selves through this podcast has been parts heartening, and parts just really really...sad. I shouldn't write these descriptions at 2:20am.

The Kind Nudibranch and the Garbage Witch are on their last day of driving on the way to Canada, and they talk about the serious things, but they also talk about the ridiculousness of going into a Cracker Barrel looking like some faerie punk goth rejects,  and having the Cracker Barrel staff try to get them to eat there, and also the paranoia involved in going into a fancy Upper New York State fancy restaurant and feeling like they didn't belong, and finding out, that...once you start talking to people, sometimes, they prove you wrong.

The Kind Nudibranch and the Garbage Witch chat in their car about all the places they couldn't go because they are traveling with Luna, a dog of mysterious origins, and are very excited about their stop in Kansas, because the Kind Nudibranch has a real thing for the Wizard of Oz, and L. Frank Baum. Will the museum let them in with their furry compatriot? We aren't really about the drama. But maybe it matters to you. 

The Kind Nudibranch and the Garbage Witch decide to record themselves chatting while driving through Wyoming, on their cross-country trip to move the Kind Nudibranch back to Canada. There is still joy in their hearts, and a small dog in the back of the vehicle, all snuggled up in her sweet crate, with a fan, and a chilled floor pillow. It turns out that traveling across America with a dog means you can't actually explore very much of the world. Please enjoy our prattling, or don't. We really didn't think anyone would ever listen to our conversations for an imaginary audience. <3
