Today’s West Coast Cookbook & Speakeasy Podcast for our especially special Daily Special, Smothered Benedict Wednesday, is now available on the Spreaker Player!Starting off in the Bistro Cafe, after Musk’s MAGA Trumpenjungen hacked into government servers and mass emails sent out, the Central Intelligence Agency became the first major national security agency to offer buyouts to its entire workforce.Then, on the rest of the menu, two federal workers seek a restraining order to shut down the illegally connected DOGE email server at OPM; MAGA farmers in Oregon are dependent on overseas markets, and concerned about the effects of Trump’s trade war; and, Trump wants to bring back the same acting chief who was overseeing NOAA during the “Sharpiegate” scandal.After the break, we move to the Chef’s Table where the head of France’s far-right National Rally party said he doesn’t support a no-confidence motion filed against the government; and, concerns grow over press freedoms in Cambodia after a British journalist is blacklisted from the country.All that and more, on West Coast Cookbook & Speakeasy with Chef de Cuisine Justice Putnam.The Netroots Radio Live Player​Keep Your Resistance Radio Beaming 24/7/365!Bon Appétit!“It may be safely averred that good cookery is the best and truest economy, turning to full account every wholesome article of food, and converting into palatable meals what the ignorant either render uneatable or throw away in disdain.” - Eliza Acton ‘Modern Cookery for Private Families’ (1845)Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/west-coast-cookbook-speakeasy--2802999/support.
