Drunch

Episode 48 excerpt: “We have to work harder to push to get the changes that allow everyone to be seen as a valued member of society.” It was a hot morning! We kept brunch cool with bowls of vegan vanilla yogurt, fresh fruit, and walnuts. As most Eastern Washington natives, Lu moved away after college and quickly got into the non-profit world. It was there she learned how to really listen to what others' needs are and how to build inclusive policies before we had words for it. She found herself back in Spokane after a quick but immersed experience in rural Oregon and focused on Spokane's houseless issues through working with Empire Health Foundation. This woman does it all - from consulting to cannabis and working with the LGBTQIA2S+ community serving as board president for Spectrum Center Spokane, she is incredibly impressive and compassionate. And now she's running for a District 3 seat on Spokane's City Council. Inspired to run by the events of summer of 2019, she aims to open the door for someone to do the same thing, someone who may have fewer opportunities. She delves into the anger, lack of community response, and how to be truly equitable. Featured song: Canyons - Barrie www.facebook.com/barrieshhh IG+Twitter: @barrieshhh Like & subscribe!

Your ears do not deceive you. We are back on our bullshit! The panini of 2020 (which has now spilled into 2021) was a doozy. It took a huge toll on our mental health and we struggled hard. We have a few remotely-recorded episodes but it just wasn't the same. It was also super fun last year to learn a past guest was an abuser and protected another abuser. BELIEVE SURVIVORS. However, we're motivated now more than ever to keep being a platform for those that need it. We're leveling up with a new editor and TWO new advertisers! We're so excited for what this year will bring. Thanks for continuing to be a Drunch'r. We missed y'all. Song: I Want You by Vanna Oh!

Episode 46 excerpt: “Shouldn’t the overall goal be pleasure? Shouldn’t the overall goal be connection?” Featured song: Vampire Blowjob - The Rare Forms Bandcamp Facebook IG: @the_rare_forms Stuck in quarantine in our respective homes, we all salivate over what breakfast dish and cocktails we would have if we could have recorded in person (hint: it involves all the food, and life hack: ask for extra hollandaise). Our guests, Miss Leo & Lili, are 2 members of the BDSM community and in a SUB/DOM relationship. We chat about how they met and what their relationship is like, kinks they have, and give us the rundown of what BDSM truly is (misconceptions, basic rules, you get the point).

Episode 45 excerpt: "This is meant to continue to show that we can take care of each other in a community." Nico and Sylas, two volunteers from Spokane County Mutual Aid, join us to share what the organization's purpose is and how to help out. SCMA, which is 100% volunteer-powered, was formed to provide aid to those most vulnerable in our community during Washington state's stay-at-home order (and hopefully after the order has been lifted): POC, black and indigenous people, disabled, the elderly, and immigrant and refugee families. A current project is getting face masks to our immigrant and refugee communities. They also talk about what they do for SCMA and future plans for the group. People can request assistance (website, email, social media) or by calling their hotline at 503-662-7912. People can also request grocery assistance (either money for groceries or someone to get groceries for them), small cash donations for bills, prescription pick up, etc. They continually need support with matching a volunteer with someone who needs aid, and they need reusable face masks or supplies to make masks. SCMA works with a few other wonderful organizations within the community and wants to shout them all out (TOO many to list!), y'all know who you are! For more information on SCMA, tap here. You can follow SCMA on social media @SpokaneCountyMutualAid and on Facebook. Send them an email at spokanecountymutualaid@gmail.com.

Episode excerpt: “Go support your small businesses because that’s what supporting your community.” Our 2nd in a hopefully not too long line of remote recordings. Audio quality may differ. Our quarantined asses chat with Aaron, owner of Ladder Coffee, and, all the way in Kirkland, Tad with Waffles4Wheels. Isn't technology awesome?! Aaron shares his story of how coffee helped him turned his life around after becoming a 2x felon. He and Tad met by happenstance and their compassion and sense of community has really bonded them. Tad also shares his own inspirational story of how the connection of his mother and food helped him find his place serving his community through both Waffles4Wheels and Meals On Wheels. These two are truly doing good in their community and are all about acceptance, paying it forward, and second chances.

Meet Taylor Weech, former host of Praxis on KYRS, co-founder of Keep Spokane Kind Of Gross (shout out to the other co-founder Erika!), and general woman about town. Spokane-born & bred Weech hosted Praxis for 7 years about feminism and social justice. She instructs us on how to keep Spokane kind of gross once she leaves for school and we talk extensively about her recreating Never Been Kissed (despite not really remembering the plot of the movie) with a queer spin on it. We stroll down Memory Lane reminiscing about old obsessions with alternative/college rock/early pop punk bands and the music our parents listened to. Weech has been a solid community activist working within the youth program of PJALs (Peace and Action Justice League) and as a board member. She gushes about how great Gen Z is, analyzes Adam Sandler’s acting caliber, and recounts the horrifying hellscape that is Cats (the movie).

Episode 39 excerpt: "First of all, women’s rights and human rights shouldn’t be political, they are but they shouldn’t be, they should just be that you want people to have basic rights.” Content warning: Vehicular collision injuries Maria Garcia-Bachman, one of the organizers of this year's Women+s March in Spokane gives us the lowdown on the event happening  Saturday, January 18, 2020 while we grub on breakfast tacos and swish mimosas around in our mouth holes.

She also shares her long lost dreams of playing the violin in Irish pubs and why you NEVER leave instruments in your car.

Content warning: sex trafficking, rape Our lovely guest gifted us with homemade crispy tortillas so of course we made tacos on our 38th episode!

We also discuss her work with The Jonah Project, a local nonprofit that helps at-risk youth and sex trafficking victims by finding them find a safe place to stay and "needed care after experiencing sexual and psychological trauma." Spoiler: Hoopfest, the largest 3-on-3 basketball tournament in the country, draws a lot of sex trafficking to Spokane.

Episode excerpt: "We've been moving into making inclusive spaces, because we need to make sure these cis, white men that dominate a lot of these fields understand why it's important." We felt very fancy and distinguished as we nibbled on English tea sandwiches and washed them down with champagne and St. Germain elderflower liqueur. If you've never had the pleasure of this libation hitting your taste buds, we strongly suggest you change that. Rebecca Long, president and founder of Future Ada joins us to talk tech and what it's been like as a woman in such a male-dominated career field. She shares her experiences with harassment in the workplace that encouraged her to start Future Ada, why basic knowledge of tech is important, and the evils of capitalism. Rebecca also talks about Future Ada's focus on gender diversity and inclusivity, creating space for those marginalized groups, and all that Future Ada has to offer. Learn more here!

We end our long holiday weekend with delicious Bloody Marys and good conversation with Spokane native, Abigail Doerr. She recently ran for King County Council where transportation was a huge platform for her. She has an extensive background in transportation issues and has worked for Transportation Choices Coalition, where she led the campaign to pass Sound Transit 3.

Since she is such a busy woman, we dove right into it while shoving donuts and coffee down our gullets.  Lara rehashes her first strip club experience (complete with lap dance). Kate recounts how a sports injury changed her life in high school and changed her focus from basketball to giving back to her community, launching her into an extensive volunteer history. She's worked with underprivileged kids, people experiencing homelessness, and also spent a summer working on a Vermont farm. Seeing the gap between resources and the people that need them the most led Burke to the world of politics and policy. She became a session aide for Senator Andy Billig and is a current Spokane council member. She dishes about navigating the complicated sphere of local government and the "radical" ideas she has for Spokane.

Episode 20 excerpt: "Just be aware of people's stories and people's mental state." We're getting a leg up on Mental Health Awareness Month with our special guest, Thessaly! TBH, you should all be talking about mental health year-around, but we thoroughly appreciated and were so, so moved by listening to Thessaly's story and her own mental health journey. This is not a light episode by any means, but is one of our most important. We cannot express how much we were in awe of our guest and being able to chat with her. Content warning: abuse, molestation, suicide, depression, anxiety, eating disorders, self harm One breakfast ring to rule them all*:- 5 eggs- 1/2 red bell pepper, chopped- 1/2 green bell pepper, chopped- 1/4tsp salt- 1/4tsp pepper- 8 slices bacon, cooked- 8oz. crescent rolls, refrigerated- 3 scallions, chopped- 1C shredded cheddar cheese- 1 egg for egg wash (optional; we ain't got time for egg wash!) Preheat oven to 375F degrees. Beat the eggs with the chopped peppers, salt, and pepper. Cook and scramble eggs in a skillet. Lay out the crescent roll dough on parchment paper (we didn't have this so we ended up making mini rolled up egg/cheese thingies) like a star. Lay a piece of bacon on each crescent roll, add half of the cheese around the ring. Then add the scrambled eggs around the ring and top with the rest of the cheese. Fold the crescents over. This is when you can brush with the egg wash if ya wanna get fancy with it. Bake for 20 minutes, or until golden brown. Eat! *honestly, use whatever ingredients you have/want. It'll probably work.

Episode 19 excerpt: "I like to collect white people." It's another crossover ep, bitches! Autumn and Kevin from Just Us on KYRS Community Radio Station joins us for this fun-filled episode! Time flew by as we talked about Lime scooters (at great length), Internet beefs, especially of the Next Door variety, homelessness, addiction and mental health, dumb anti-vaxxers, and goddamn, SO MUCH MORE! We had such a blast and our tummies, full of gluten-free Mexican frittata and gin, were content. Mufasa also makes an appearance! Mexican frittata:- 1tb. olive oil- 1/2lb. ground beef- 2tsp. taco seasoning- 1/2C salsa- 1 small green pepper, chopped- 1/3lb. plum tomatoes, sliced- 8 eggs- 3 scallions, chopped- 1/4tsp. salt- 1/2C grated cheddar cheese Preheat ya oven to 375 degrees. Scramble your eggs (DO NOT COOK THEM), and set aside. Meanwhile, brown your ground beef in the olive oil (we used a cast iron, but any medium-sized skillet will do). Add taco seasoning and salsa. Stir to evenly coat, then remove the meat from the skillet*. Add your green peppers and cook for a few minutes. Add the meat back in with the scallions and tomato. Pour the egg on top and sprinkle with salt and cheese. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the frittata is set, no jiggle. It will be difficult but let it sit for a few minutes before cutting into.

Originating in North Africa, shakshuka is a traditional Israeli dish of baked eggs atop a bed of delicious, spicy, saucy goodness. Get you some pita or challah bread to sop it uppp. We talk to the fabulously cool Michelle about being a Stage 3 breast cancer survivor, compare our astrology signs, Hogwarts houses, and Meyers-Briggs personalities, weird Instagram expectations, and shitty old white dude philosophers.

Episode 16 excerpt: "If we want to see change, we have to start by the people that are closest to us. We always talk about other people changing or trying to change the world, but we think about it externally, like out in the world. But we can start having an impact within our own social circles." We were so delighted to have Norma from NARAL join us for some delish omelets and mimosas! She is so impressive and a force of nature - the Eastern Washington chapter of NARAL is so, so lucky to have her as their community organizer. We talked a lot about the importance of resources such as NARAL and Planned Parenthood being available, how to identify crisis pregnancy centers (that aren't an actual help at all), and the future of NARAL.

AKA the vajayjay, poontang, cooter, pussy, muff, pink taco, a rose (by any other name would smell as sweet)... We're celebrating this year's extra special, lovey dovey, sickly sweet, capitalistic holiday that serves no actual purpose by quizzing one straight dude and one gay dude to see who knows more about vaginas, their functions, and the reproductive system*. We fed our victims...we mean...special guests Jordan and Terry some superpower brainfood to get their brain cells going, in the form of a tater tot breakfast casserole, complete with a whole ass pound of bacon and heaps of cheese (Jordan forgot his dairy pill at home, but soldiered on anyway like a gotdamn champ). *we acknowledge that not all womxn have vaginas, not all who have vaginas are womxn.

Episode 9: With special guests Mary Margaret and Laura Jean, we talked about every single goddamn thing than the one thing we set out to discuss, and it was A BLAST! Listen to us chant "pee tape," discuss whether or not penises can sweat, and basically establish the fact Aileen Wuornos is not a serial killer. We sprinkled in some burps and belches for your listening pleasure. Dutch babies w/lemon curd: -2 large eggs-1/2C flour-2tb sugar-1/2tsp salt-1tsp vanilla extract-2tb butter-1/2C milk-powdered sugar, syrup or whatever you like to top these bad boys with Blend together the flour, milk, eggs, sugar, vanilla, and salt with a food processor (we didn't have one) for 10 seconds. Scrape down the sides (again we just mixed by hand) and blend for another 10 seconds. Batter should be quite loose (ayyyeeeeee). Let the batter rest 20-25 minutes (doubt we did this because we was HANGRY and ain't nobody got time for that). Heat your oven to 425 degrees Farenheit and place your skillet on the middle rack. We've used cast iron and aluminum pans with great success. Melt your butter in the pan so it gets all up everywhurrr in that thang and pour the batter in. Bake about 15-20 minutes, or until it's lightly browned across the top and puffed. Lemon curd:(full disclosure: we pared this recipe down and kinda eyeballed everything) -3 large eggs, 4 large egg yolks-3/4C sugar-3/4C fresh lemon juice (about 4 lemons)-pinch of kosher/sea salt-1tb grated lemon zest-4tb butter-1/4tsp salt Stir together lemon zest, lemon juice, sugar, and salt in a small saucepan. Set over medium heat and cook about 5 minutes, or until sugar and salt are dissolved. In a medium bowl beat 3 eggs and 4 egg yolks. When the liquid on the stove is ready, slowly pour some of it into the bowl with the eggs, whisking constantly aka tempering. Return the pot to the stove and add the rest of the eggs while stirring, making sure not to curdle the eggs. But if that DOES happen, you can always strain out the curdled eggs and you're good to go! Whisk about 5 more minutes, it should be thick enough to coat the back of a wooden spoon. Stir in the chopped butter and eat a giant spoonful of this goodness. At this point, you can choose to refrigerate 2-4 hours (press plastic wrap right on top of the lemon curd), but we just went ahead and ate it with our dutch babies 'cuz we was HANGRY.

On this special Father's Day episode, Alisha, Lara, and Adam of Good Brews Radio get way too full on chocolate chip pancakes and lots of stout while they share stories on fatherhood, being a kid, and everything in between. Chocolate chip pancakes: -2c flour-3tb white sugar-1 1/2tsp baking powder-1tsp baking soda-1/4tsp salt-2c buttermilk (we used powdered buttermilk - yes, it's a thing!)-1 1/2tsp vanilla extract-1/2tsp cinnamon-1 egg-1/4c melted butter-mini chocolate chips (as many as you want because you're an adult, or at least are old enough to make pancakes) Melt butter and let cool slightly. In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In a separate bowl, combine the buttermilk, vanilla, cinnamon, and egg with a whisk. Add the melted butter and whisk again. Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir to combine. Do not over-mix! Heat up your best pancake-making skillet or griddle over medium-low heat, and add a little butter. Use a 1/4 cup measuring cup (we used an ice cream scoop) and slowly pour batter onto hot surface to make a nice circle. Or any shape you want. Because they're your pancakes! Let the pancake cook about 2-3 minutes. Once bubbles start to form on the surface and the edges are set, flip that baby over! Cook for another two minutes before letting cool slightly so you can devour said pancake(s). Pairs well with your favorite stout or porter. We chose Samuel Smith's Organic Chocolate Stout and Young's Double Chocolate Stout.

We risked it for the biscuit (and gravy)! After stuffing our faces and sipping on mimosas, Alisha and Lara talk lots about drugs, and the local music/entertainment scene with special guest Kendra McKay! Kendra is a local business owner, musician, artist and all-around badass being. She also shares her story of a 3-month legal battle with an old ex, after calling out his abusive behavior during their relationship (and towards other women). For the best ever biscuits and sausage gravy you'll need: -6TB butter-2C flour-1TB sugar-1/4tsp baking soda-1TB baking powder-1tsp salt-1C buttermilk -1lb breakfast sausage-1/2C flour-3 or 4C whole milk (we used buttermilk and it was AMAZING)-1/2tsp salt-2tsp pepper Pre-heat your oven to 450 degrees. Cut the butter into small cubes (this works best if the butter is super duper chilled; we didn't have a pastry cutter and it was fine). Sift the dry ingredients together. Then add your cut up butter, it should be coarse and crumbly. Make a well in the middle of your bowl and add the buttermilk. Stir to combine until the dough is sticky/tacky. At this point you can roll out the dough and fold it over itself 6 times. We just freeformed the biscuits, because that's how we roll. Bake for 12-15 minutes until browned. While the biscuits are baking, make dat gravy, BABY! Brown your sausage in a large skillet on medium-high heat until there's no more pink. Add the flour and stir it up so it gets soaked up by the sausage. Pour in the milk whilst stirring constantly. Cook the gravy 10-12 minutes or until thickened. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Drown your biscuits in this gravy and prepare to reach utter and true bliss.
