At My Kitchen Table
Welcome to At My Kitchen Table, a conversational, interview-y podcast where I have a good yap with a guest!
When I was growing up, the kitchen table was the conversation center in a lot of homes. At my grandparents' house, friends and family alike were welcomed with connection as much as with drinks and food. In my parents' house, that tradition continued as my siblings and I would post up and chat with my mom as she cooked or baked or tried to read a book (with much exasperation as we refused to shut up). I found cozy similarity at my friends' homes with their parents, too.
Keeping with tradition, I create a space for everyone who visits my table, where we get to share a little bit of our journeys together - roses, thorns, and stems.
At My Kitchen Table
Guests: A Table Full of Shaaks
It's Thanksgiving week, teabags! I decided to do something a little different with the pod this week, so this won’t be a typical episode. Since I’m not gonna have my three kids together for the holiday, I Zoomed with my family and did a twist on the At My Kitchen Table 3 good things about your week. You get our bonus hot takes of best and worst Thanksgiving foods, you'll hear a couple of hidden gem Grandma’s Boy quotes, and you'll get to hear my kids' dark humor because it turns out that we raised sarcassholes.
I’m so thankful for everyone listening - this doesn't work if my guests and I are just speaking into the void. Your encouragement and kind reception has been so amazing. From my kitchen table to yours, Happy Thanksgiving!
