Why Whiskey?

Hi friends! I have missed you so! I am back behind the mic and telling silly stories while I sip on some great spirits. Tonight I am talking about Paul Revere and William Dawes as they tell all that the Brits are coming! Come listen and enjoy yourself with me! Cheers.

Clara Lemlich: Activist, Socialist, Bad Ass - with Alycia from Civics and Coffee Podcast

"Well behaved women seldom make history" Laurel Thatcher

The theme above can be heard throughout the conversation in this episode. I got the chance to sit down with one of my favorite history podcast hosts, Alycia from Civis and Coffee, and discuss a woman who immigrated to the US and took up the fight for her fellow immigrant women in the textile industry. Clara was feisty, strong and consistent throughout her life. Come join us and hear her story and more! Cheers.

Greetings friends! In this episode, I sit down and chat about our new backyard and the latest location of the #BOQLC. Battle Creek Michigan has a fun story to tell from the origin of its name to the crowning of its title of "Cereal City USA". The town served as a health and wellness and also concealed a stop along the Underground Railroad. Come with me as I sip some local whiskies and talk about this quaint little city with a big story. Cheers!
