West Coast Cookbook and Speakeasy - Smothered Benedict Wednesdays 12 July 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, just as with his first two runs, Trump’s third run for the presidency is a legal strategy to keep out of prison.Then, on the rest of the menu, the Utah Supreme Court scrutinized the process that sliced the state’s most Democratic-heavy county into four districts; deputies who reported a Texas sheriff to public corruption investigators say nothing was done; and, Bank of America has been ordered to reimburse customers and pay big time fines for “double-dipping” on overdraft fees, withholding reward bonuses on credit cards and opening accounts without customer consent.After the break, we move to the Chef’s Table where Japan’s Supreme Court ruled government restrictions on a transgender employee’s use of restrooms is illegal; and, the European Union faces a cliffhanger vote on a major bill protecting nature and fighting climate change.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.
