West Coast Cookbook and Speakeasy - Smothered Benedict Wednesdays 04 Oct 23

Today’s West Coast Cookbook & Speakeasy Podcast for our especially special Daily Special, Smothered Benedict Wednesdays, is now available on the Spreaker Player!​​​​​​​Starting off in the Bistro Cafe, The MAGA House cares more about “making headlines than headway.”Then, on the rest of the menu, the FBI alleges a die-hard MAGA sheriff in Virginia, charged with accepting bribes for deputy badges, sold one to a controversial Iraqi fixer; neo-Nazis violently threatened journalists covering a Tennessee mayoral race; and, the Education Department asserts Liberty University violated federal safety laws by failing to warn the campus community about gas leaks, bomb threats and people credibly accused of repeated acts of sexual violence, for years.After the break, we move to the Chef’s Table where Armenia’s parliament voted to join the International Criminal Court, a move that further strains the country’s ties with Russia; and, police in India searched journalists’ homes and offices in the country’s latest raids on the media.All that and more, on West Coast Cookbook & Speakeasy with Chef de Cuisine Justice Putnam.Bon Appétit!The Netroots Radio Live Player​Keep Your Resistance Radio Beaming 24/7/365!"To those of us who believe that all of life is sacred every crumb of bread and sip of wine is a Eucharist, a remembrance, a call to awareness of holiness right where we are. I want all of the holiness of the Eucharist to spill out beyond church walls, out of the hands of priests and into the regular streets and sidewalks, into the hands of regular, grubby people like you and me, onto our tables, in our kitchens and dining rooms and backyards.”-- Shauna Niequist"Bread and Wine: A Love Letter to Life Around the Table with Recipes"Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/west-coast-cookbook-speakeasy--2802999/support.
