Episode 3: Ready, Set, Go!

Odds are you've heard of chess and checkers, but did you know there is a widely popular board game that has remained mostly unchanged for thousands of years? It may not be as popular in the west, but Go (aka, Baduk, Igo, and Weiqi) boasts a huge following all over Asia and in many cities here in the States. I sat down with Andrew Okun--the President of the American Go Association--over Zoom to ask him some questions about the game. Hosted and edited by Cody Sullivan, and produced in part by the Riverpower Podcast Mill. (you can try playing Go yourself at https://www.cosumi.net/en/ [https://www.cosumi.net/en/])

Episode 2: Why be Sweet when you can be Sourdough?

On this episode of The Stone Soup Podcast, I am joined by my good friend, Shelbi Aris! Among many other talents, Shelbi is a baking enthusiast and veritable sourdough expert. I wanted to ask her about how she got into baking, and why sourdough. Then taking that conversation a step further, I wanted to know why sourdough has become so popular during the quarantine-times we are living in. Tune in to hear her insight!
