In this episode: I interview Sheila Bowman and Cinda Orr about our district's Learner's Showcase event. Sheila is a TOSA in Instructional Technology for our district and she has been coordinating this great event for the last 8 years. Cinda is a Learning Coach and former teacher sponsor who has participated for several years. I think you'll enjoy hearing about the history of the showcase and about how it has evolved from a technology competition to a showcase of student innovation in our district. For a special treat, you'll even get to hear from 2nd grader Collins, who has participated in the Learner's Showcase for the last two years. And, once again, stay tuned after this interview for our questionnaire and my Check It Out Segment.
Sheila Bowman is the manager of Culinary and Strategic Initiatives at Monterey Bay Aquarium Seafood Watch. Sheila was trained as a marine scientist and works with chefs, media, and industry to help make environmentally sustainable seafood the norm when sourcing “better food.” In 2014, the National Audubon Society recognized Sheila as one of their “Woman Greening Food.” For eighteen years, Seafood Watch has been the leading source of science-based recommendations for the seafood found in the U.S. market. They’ve distributed over 60 million of their popular pocket guides and nearly two million copies of their app have been downloaded, making it easy to choose ocean-friendly seafood.

Today's show is ALL. ABOUT. CALIFORNIA. We're joined in studio by Mike Edison, host of Arts & Seizures, and Patrick Martins, HRN Founder and Heritage Foods USA Founder for a round up of recent food news including Caity's recap of the Good Food Mercantile that took place in Washington DC last weekend. Kat brings us some exclusive interviews from Monterey County, CA. First up, we hear from Tom Wright, Reporter from The Monterey Herald, about the insanely rainy winter season in Big Sur. Mudslides in the area caused a total shutdown of Highway 1 (Pacific Coast Highway) after the Pfeiffer Canyon Bridge was condemned. Tom shares stories of the immediate aftermath of the storm (such as airlifting of food and supplies) and the lasting effects on the community. Many restaurants and resorts in Big Sur are still closed and don't plan to reopen until the bridge can be repaired or other travel alternatives are available to guests. Moving slightly north, we hear from Sheila Bowman, Manager of Culinary and Strategic Initiatives for Seafood Watch at the Monterey Bay Aquarium. Now in its seventeenth year, Seafood Watch is the leading source of science-based seafood recommendations in the U.S. After a quick break, we share the latest news out of Ron Finley HQ in Los Angeles, what our engineer Vitor has planned for this weekend (hint: it involves chamber music and tickets are available HERE), and a preview of Cherry Bombe Jubilee & Marketplace happening August 8th and 9th. Catch HRN's table at the marketplace for your chance to win our "Sophisticated Home Cook" Raffle Basket! To wrap things up, we play a round of "Girly Pop Culture Trivia" with Patrick and Mike in the hot seats.

"Probably more than half of the fish we eat right now are farmed, whether it's oysters or shrimp, tilapia or catfish," says Sheila Bowman of Monterey Bay Aquarium's Seafood Watch Program. It's no longer a matter of simply comparing the taste of fresh vs. farmed fish - where those fish come from is equally, or even more, important.
