Podcasts about Sewickley

This month's podcast is highlighting what it looks like to really do life with students faithfully with Sammie's friend, Janelle DiStefano. Get to know Janelle: "I'm on Young Life Staff in Sewickley, PA and married to my husband, Sam. I have been involved with the ministry of Young Life for 8 years (as a student, leader & now on staff)! Jesus brought me from death to life my sophomore year of high school & now I get to walk alongside students and share this good news with them every day. I'm passionate about being constant in students lives through all seasons. Entering into students brokenness with them changes lives for eternity! God is doing so much through my hesitant “yes” to full time ministry- praise God for redemption through Him!" Be sure to stay up to date with Abundant Life: You Were Made for More by visiting our blog - and if you're loving the podcast, send guest recommendations to us or leave us a star-rating/review on your favorite listening platform to spread the word about the you were made for more message.You Were Made for More Social Media: FacebookInstagram

We sit down with Mike Ambeliotis of Mediterra Bakehouse and Mediterra Cafe to talk about what it really takes to grow a family business without losing the craft, the standards, or the relationships that built it in the first place. A local bakery that still sells at Pittsburgh farmers markets is also baking bread for Whole Foods across the country, and that tension is what makes this conversation so good.We go upstream to the ingredients. Mike breaks down their heritage grain work, including Red Fife grown in Arizona, natural pest control with ladybugs, and why milling their own flour gives them control from field to finished loaf. Then we spotlight Mediterra Cafe, the thoughtfully designed spaces in Sewickley, Mt Lebanon, Lawrenceville, and Cranberry, plus the in-house pastry program and chef-driven food that turns the bakery's bread into full meals. Later in the show, wine expert Catherine Montest spotlights Ruby's Wine House, and makes the case for wine flights as the fastest way to expand your palate. From exotic whites to bouquet-forward pours and horizontal flights that compare terroir across regions, you'll leave with a clear plan for your next night out. Subscribe for more Pittsburgh food stories, share this with a bread or wine fan, and leave a review with your favorite loaf or wine flight pick.Support the show

Does "Die Hard" count as a Christmas movie? We're stretching the definition of "Pittsburgh holiday movie" to its limits and talking about the many films loosely connected to our city this festive season. Host Megan Harris is with Josh Axelrod, a founding member of the Pittsburgh Film Critics Association and director of communications at The Lindsay Theater and Cultural Center, to talk about the most famous holiday movies, the one corner of Sewickley popping up over and over in Hallmark films, and why one small part of "The Perks of Being a Wallflower" makes it a Christmas watch.  The Lindsay Theater is screening holiday classics from December 19-25.
