Every meal tells a story, but what stories do they weave when you’re on a journey across the country? You’ll just have to tune in to find out. Today we’re serving up 10 delicious sides as we learn of the bites and places that bring joy, frustration, and love to the team at Meat and Three as we head on a road trip of sorts. The final destination? You’ll just have to listen and find out, but we’ll give you a hint - Elvis, Vegas, and Taco Bell. Get comfy, get your snacks and let’s hit the road! 

Hey listeners, 

In light of the current- and frankly ongoing- political landscape -, we here at Meat and Three want to share a moment with you before we get into our Season 17 opener. A moment to take a deep breath together, and acknowledge and stand in solidarity with the communities across the country– and world–  that are being attacked with not only hateful rhetoric, but harmful policy making. 

While it’s easy to give into fear and isolation, we want to encourage you to find strength in those around you, and to join together in resistance not only to survive, but to thrive. 

Our greatest strength is our love for each other and our ability to come together in the face of facism. Meet us in the margins. And please, rest. 

We have joy, we have community, and we will always have tomorrow. Together.

With love, The Meat and Three Community
