Not all that long ago, people felt paying bills by sending a check in the mail was the best way to do it. Today, it seems like a bad idea. In fact, banks and the post office are recommending against it. Listen as I reveal why. https://www.businessinsider.com/post-office-check-fraud-mailing-be-careful-usps-scam-2023-6 There are a lot of weird but true stories out there. And this episode offers you several of them!. For instance, how one U.S. President prevented his own assassination and how Beatles' drummer Ringo Starr's unique drumming style is due to exorcisms. And, how the Los Angeles Dodgers paid someone to cosmically beam positive messages to players during games from 3000 miles away. And there's more... These stories all come from my guest Dan Schreiber. Dan hosts a podcast called There is No Such Thing As a Fish (https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/no-such-thing-as-a-fish/id840986946) and he is author of the book The Theory of Everything Else: A Voyage Into the World of the Weird (https://amzn.to/43eruph) How the very best athletes perform at their peak can teach us all something about life and how to do our best at what we do. Here to explain this is Sally Jenkins who has been a columnist and feature writer for The Washington Post for over twenty years. She was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize in 2020 and in 2021 was named the winner of the Associated Press Red Smith Award for Outstanding Contributions to Sports Journalism. She is the author of 12 books including The Right Call: What Sport Teaches Us About Work and Life (https://amzn.to/44wtc6y). If you have been to Trader Joe's, I'm sure you have noticed that the people who work there wear different colored Hawaiian shirts. Perhaps you have wondered what the different kind of Hawaiian shirts mean or why they are so friendly and why they keep ringing that bell?

The Context of White Supremacy hosts the weekly summit on Neutralizing Workplace Racism 07/10/25. Hopefully, we all survived the 4th of July with all our fingers and toes and no added DUI arrests on our record. Gus T. is still mighty curious if any C.O.W.S. listeners have been interviewed by AI? This was first mentioned last week and speaks volumes to the monumental changes to the work landscape. It is imperative that non-white parents speak to their children often about the rapidly changing dynamics of getting and maintaining any sort of job. We also discussed a KCRW report where grocery enterprise Trader Joe's is accused of stealing the intellectual property of "ethnic"/non-white chefs. As opposed to partnering with non-white cooks at places like Brooklyn Delhi, Trader Joe's allegedly makes inferior copies of their culinary creations to sell at cheap prices to consumers. KCRW's report made it seem that Trader Joe's targets and ripoffs non-white ("ethnic") chefs specifically. #INVEST in The C.O.W.S. - https://cash.app/$TheCOWS #TheCOWS16Years CALL IN NUMBER: 720.716.7300 CODE: 564943#
Strap into the time machine and set the dial for July 1986, a time when Top Gun ruled the box office, synthesizers ruled the airwaves, and Kenny Loggins ruled… something. In this episode, Milt and Dave wade knee-deep through the Billboard Top 10 from a summer that gave us everything from Loggins' “Danger Zone” (still trying to make aviator sunglasses cool) to Simply Red's “Holding Back the Years” (still holding back… the energy). Expect the usual: unsolicited nostalgia, suspiciously convenient personal stories, and yes, Milt somehow manages to rhyme “Spinal Tap” with “Trader Joe's nap.” Don't ask. Highlights include: A passionate defense of Janet Jackson's “Nasty,” because someone had to. A soul-searching breakdown of Billy Ocean's “There'll Be Sad Songs (To Make You Cry),” which succeeds. It does indeed break down. Two grown men pretending to know the difference between Howard Jones and Howard Johnson. And the moment Peter Gabriel's “Sledgehammer” rolls in and flattens the competition like, well, a sledgehammer. Plus: Johnny-themed trivia (because there are apparently way more songs about guys named Johnny than anyone needed), some light shade thrown at the Fabulous Thunderbirds, and a very necessary refreshing of the chart — where Dave and Milt save the Top 10 from itself by swapping in some ‘80s underdogs.

In this edition of the Peristyle Podcast hosts Ryan Abraham, Connor Morrissette (aka "Triple Double") and intern India Otto are back in studio discussing who the top-30 most important Trojans are heading into the 2025 college football season. The USCFootball.com staff was polled and we are revealing the results one by one, starting with defensive back Prophet Brown coming in at No. 30. Please note, considerations for rankings take in a wide range of factors including depth, 2024 stats, overall talent, departures from last season, projected development and expectations. But the most important factor for placement on the list was if this player was lost, how detrimental would it be to the team and the overall success of the season. The crew also talks about how the Trojans landed a Fourth of July commitment from four-star 2026 four-star DeSoto (Texas) wide receiver Ethan "Boobie" Feaster, who chose USC over Alabama, LSU and Texas A&M. Feaster is the 31st overall commitment for USC's No. 1 recruiting class and the fifth wide receiver. CLICK HERE for 30% OFF an annual VIP membership to USCFootball.com!

In this edition of the Peristyle Podcast hosts Ryan Abraham, Connor Morrissette (aka "Triple Double") and intern India Otto are back in studio continuing our early Trojan opponent previews, taking a look at the Oregon Ducks and the UCLA Bruins. USC travels to Oregon on Saturday, November 22 with a kickoff time that has yet to be revealed. The Ducks won the Big Ten last season before getting bounced by Ohio State in the CFP. Do our hosts think USC can head into Eugene and get an upset victory? UCLA comes to the Coliseum one week later on Saturday, November 29 for another installment of the crosstown rivalry and no kickoff time has been set. The Rose Bowl was the only Big Ten "road" win for USC last season and the Trojans will try to keep local superiority over the Bruins to end the regular season. The crew also discusses the three players that will represent the Trojans at Big Ten Media Days later in July, wide receiver Makai Lemon, offensive lineman Elijah Paige and safety Kamari Ramsey. Notably absent is starting quarterback Jayden Maiava, who took over the final four games of the season for Miller Moss. CLICK HERE for 30% OFF an annual VIP membership to USCFootball.com!

In this episode, Nick and Marty open up about the wild ride of becoming dads, from marathon labors and unexpected C-sections to the surreal moment of finally driving home with a newborn. They get real about the hidden weight of postpartum stress on dads, the tension of managing kids and dogs under one roof — including a scare that landed Marty's daughter in the ER — and how it's reshaped their views on responsibility. They also dive into building healthier routines, why Trader Joe's might not be as wholesome as it seems, and the little wins (and fails) of trying to stay in shape. Plus, a few laughs over unhinged huskies, toddlers grabbing chihuahuas, and why the love for their dogs still runs deep.

In this edition of the Peristyle Podcast hosts Ryan Abraham and Connor Morrissette (aka "Triple Double") are back in studio continuing our early Trojan opponent previews, taking a look at the Iowa Hawkeyes and the Notre Dame Fighting Irish. Iowa comes to the Coliseum on Saturday, November 15 for homecoming weekend, with the game kicking off at either noon or 12:30 p.m. PT. The Hawkeyes have been great on defense, special teams and in the run game, but incompetent passing the football. Can Iowa turn that around one of the worst passing offenses in the country? To do so, offensive coordinator Tim Lester went out and upgraded his receivers and brought in quarterback Mark Gronowski from South Dakota State. USC travels to Notre Dame Stadium on Saturday, Oct. 18 with a kickoff time of 7:30 p.m. ET/4:30 p.m. PT. The Fighting Irish are coming off an appearance in the national championship game against Ohio State and are looking to make another College Football Playoffs run. This is the last scheduled game in the long-standing rivalry, one that has been lopsided towards the Irish as of late. What will USC need to do to get its first win in South Bend since 2011? Ryan and Connor also discuss how USC quarterback commit Jonas Williams finished the the Elite 11 Finals, the "Play Like a Trojan" philanthropic event on campus this week hosted by Trojan linebacker Anthony Beavers and the latest open USC basketball practice that included five-star freshman Alijah Arenas addressing the media for the first time, talking about his April late night car crash coming home from a shooting session.

Hi Friends,In our latest episode, Anna and I get into a topic that brings up a lot of emotions for parents: How to navigate sweets with kids?We talk about into: * Why sugar has been demonized in our culture.* Diet culture and beliefs about sugar and “good parenting.”* What sugar is and why our bodies need it.* Myths about sugar.* The link between restriction and kids' interest in sweets.* Realistic advice on how to create structure around sweets.* How we talk about sweets matters. Anna and I also share personal examples from our own homes — plus our favorite sweets right now!Mentioned in this episode:* Let's Talk About Sugar(blog post)* Take the Frenzy Out of Feeding Membership* Ellen Satter's Division of Responsibility* Leann Birch Research* Pinney Davenport Nutrition* Lutz, Alexander & Associates, Nutrition TherapyWe'd love to hear from you!Have a question about sweets or a myth you want us to bust? You can listen to the Sunny Side Up Nutrition Podcast on Substack, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts.Podcast TranscriptElizabeth:Hi, Anna. It's great to see you.Anna:Hi, Elizabeth. I'm so excited to see you and talk about this topic.Elizabeth:Yeah! Today we're diving into a topic that brings up a lot of feelings for parents: sugar.We often get questions like:Should I limit sweets?How do I navigate sweets in my house?What do I do if my kids are asking for dessert all the time?If that's you—you're not alone. Let's jump in and chat about sweets and how to navigate them.Anna:Great! Sounds good to me. Elizabeth: So why do you think sugar has become such a villain, especially when it comes to parenting and feeding kids?Anna:I think as a society, we like to put things into categories—good or bad—and the nuance gets lost. That's gotten even more heightened with social media and how we consume information.It's easier to say, “These foods have lots of nutrition” and “These foods don't, so they must be bad.” But the truth is, food is way more complicated.Putting foods in these categories isn't scientifically accurate, and it doesn't reflect how we feel about food, who we eat with, our culture—there's so much more to health than just nutrients.Elizabeth::I couldn't agree more. Social media really impacts how people think about food. Quick soundbites don't leave room for nuance, and people click on sensational posts, not on ones that say, “Well, it's complicated…”Anna:Exactly.Elizabeth:How would you say diet culture has shaped our beliefs about sugar and what it means to be a “good parent”?Anna:Diet culture touches every part of our society—including parenting. There's this idea that to be a “good parent” your child should eat certain foods, not eat others, and be a certain size.But what I'd love the message to be is: as parents, we can strive to help our kids eat all kinds of foods, enjoy celebrations, and navigate different situations.Elizabeth:Yes! It's sad that it's become so black and white when food is wonderful and fun—and sweets taste awesome. Sugar is necessary! Let's talk about what sugar really is from a nutrition science perspective.Anna:Great. We have a blog post on the science of sugar we can link to!There are three macronutrients: carbohydrates, protein, and fat. Sugar is a type of carbohydrate. Our brains and muscles run on glucose, which comes from carbohydrates.When people talk about sugar, they usually mean simple carbohydrates—1 or 2 glucose molecules linked together. These digest faster than complex carbohydrates (starches), which are lots of glucose molecules linked together.Elizabeth:Exactly. Simple carbs give quick energy—which we need! And at the end of the day, all carbs break down into glucose.Elizabeth:What's a myth you hear most often?Anna:That sugar makes kids hyper. The research doesn't support that!Kids might get quick energy from sugar alone, but it doesn't cause hyperactivity. Often it's the excitement of the setting—like a party—that's at play.Elizabeth:Right. And when sugar is eaten with protein or fat—like in cake or ice cream—it digests more slowly.Anna:Another myth is that sugar has no nutritional value.Elizabeth:Yes! Sugar gives us energy. And it's usually in foods that contain other nutrients, like fruit (fiber, vitamins, minerals). Let's touch on sugar “addiction.”Anna:We need food to survive. We don't say people are addicted to oxygen, right?When people restrict sugar, it tastes especially good when they finally have it. That's our body's survival mechanism.Anna:Yes. And brain scans showing activity when we eat sugar just show that food is rewarding—which it has to be, because we need it!Elizabeth:Let's talk about restriction and how it increases kids' interest in sweets.Anna:Restriction can mean not allowing sweets in the house or even commenting negatively when they're eaten. Psychological restriction counts too—like, “You can't have dessert until you eat your broccoli.”And even things like putting just two tiny candies in a lunchbox can be a form of restriction that sends a message of scarcity.Elizabeth:Exactly. We know from research that restriction makes kids want those foods more, and they may eat past fullness when they do get access.Anna:Right. Instead, we can offer sweets in a structured way. For example:* A small sweet in lunches* A sweet after dinner most nights* Occasionally offering sweets as a snack and letting kids eat until they're fullThe key is to help sweets be just one part of what they eat—not the forbidden prize.Elizabeth:Why do we avoid demonizing language about sugar?Anna:It confuses kids: If this is so bad, why does my parent give it to me?It also can create shame. Kids think, I like this—am I bad for liking it?Elizabeth:If a parent's child is constantly asking for sweets, what's one thing they could try today?Anna:Offer sweets proactively—before your child asks. Maybe serve a small dessert with dinner. It helps shift away from the battle and reassures your child that sweets are available.Elizabeth:And let your kids see you enjoying sweets too. That modeling matters!So before we wrap up: what's your favorite sweet right now?Anna:Chocolate-covered cherries from Trader Joe's—and I recently discovered seven-layer bars at Whole Foods! I also love baking pies in summer.Elizabeth:Ice cream—especially Tillamook Malted Moo.If you'd like to dive deeper into this topic and join a community focused on raising kids with a healthy relationship with food, check out our Sunny Side Up membership.Thanks for listening!Resources Mentioned:* Let's Talk About Sugar(blog post)* Take the Frenzy Out of Feeding Membership* Ellen Satter's Division of Responsibility* Leann Birch Research* Pinney Davenport Nutrition* Lutz, Alexander & Associates, Nutrition Therapy This is a public episode.

Send us a textThe wine world is shifting beneath our feet. While premium bottles holding steady, everything else has plummeted a shocking 12% in sales over the past year. But as Domain Dave reveals, this market correction creates a golden opportunity for savvy wine lovers.Trader Joe's Platinum Reserve Dundee Hills Willamette Valley Oregon Pinot Noir 2023 exemplifies the extraordinary values emerging from this challenging market. At just $14.99, this wine delivers the distinctive character of one of Oregon's most respected wine regions at a fraction of typical prices. The Dundee Hills appellation, birthplace of Oregon winemaking and known for its volcanic soils, typically commands $25-75 for quality Pinot Noir. This bottling offers that same terroir-driven experience at an unprecedented value.What makes this wine special? The cooler climate of Willamette Valley (30 miles southwest of Portland, 40 miles from the ocean) creates a leaner, more elegant expression than typical California Pinots. Professional winemakers with decades of experience craft this wine in a Burgundian style—long, subtle, and very dry with that distinctive volcanic soil minerality. While not an estate bottling, it leverages high-quality fruit that would normally command much higher prices. The wine offers sophistication that belies its modest price tag, making it an ideal introduction to Oregon Pinot Noir or a daily drinker for experienced enthusiasts. Ready to explore the silver lining in the wine industry's struggles? This bottle delivers exceptional quality that drinks like wines twice its price—grab it while supplies last and discover why Dundee Hills has earned its stellar reputation.Check us out at www.cheapwinefinder.comor email us at podcast@cheapwinefinder.com

Hi friends,If restocking your pantry feels overwhelming, or it's something you just don't like doing, you're not alone.In our latest podcast episode, Anna and I chat about what it means to stock your pantry in a way that supports you and your family, without the pressure for a picture perfect pantry. Photo by Annie Spratt on UnsplashWe chat about:* Why restocking your pantry matters (and how it helps reduce stress).* A few of our favorite convenience foods. * What to do if you only have five minutes today to think about restocking your pantry.Plus, we share the idea behind our No Recipe Required ebook and how it can help you simplify feeding your family. We hope you find one helpful nugget in this week's episode and that it leaves you feeling a little less pressure to do it all perfectly. We'd love for you to share some of your favorite pantry or freezer staples in the comment section below. In the episode we also mention:* Take the Frenzy Out of Feeding Membership* Pinney Davenport Nutrition (DC Area)* Lutz, Alexander & Associates Nutrition Therapy (Raleigh, NC)TranscriptEpisode 101: Stocking Your PantryElizabeth:Hi, Elizabeth. I'm so excited to talk with you today.Anna:Yes, I'm excited to talk to you! Let's jump in.Today we're talking about stocking your pantry—something that can feel either fun or kind of boring, depending on your perspective. We're going to make it fun! I think for a lot of people it can feel overwhelming, like, “Whoa, stocking my pantry?! That feels like a big task.” Why do you think this is such an important topic?Elizabeth:I agree—it can feel like a lot, and maybe even a little boring. But like you said, we'll make it fun! I think the overwhelm comes from all the suggestions out there—so many different people telling you different things. Whose advice are you supposed to follow?And then there's the idea that stocking your pantry means spending thousands of dollars on matching containers and making it all look perfect. I'm a little envious of those pantries! I've even started trying to do that before getting sidetracked, asking myself, “Wait, why am I spending all this money?”It's absolutely fine if you like having a super-organized pantry and you're able to keep it that way. But a lot of people just don't know where to begin. They hear “stock your pantry” and wonder, “Do I need to go out and buy everything on some giant list?”That's not what we're talking about. We're here to share suggestions that can help simplify your pantry—and reduce the overwhelm.Anna:Exactly. And today, we'll share a few ideas for how to stock your pantry. I also want to mention that in our Take the Frenzy Out of Feeding membership, we offer tools and templates that can help with this process. So if you're listening and feeling overwhelmed or want more support, those resources are there for you.Elizabeth:Yes! We've got our favorite frozen and convenience foods lists in there—really everything we use to stock our own pantries. Not to overwhelm, but to offer inspiration.Another thing to remember is that keeping your pantry stocked can help reduce chaos. Fewer last-minute grocery trips!Anna:Right. If you listened to our last episode, this is part of supporting yourself—building in a little structure so you're not constantly wondering, “Do I have this ingredient?” The food is right there.Elizabeth:Exactly. And when we think about stocking the pantry, something we always think about is having the ingredients on hand for your go-to meals.We talked about that in our last episode, but could you give everyone a quick refresher, Anna?Anna:Sure. A go-to meal is really anything that makes your life easier. Something you can put together quickly with ingredients you usually have on hand—maybe in 15 minutes, maybe 30, depending on your household. There's no right or wrong here.Elizabeth:Yes! Personally, I keep a running list in the Notes app on my phone. When I run out of something, I add it to the list right away. Before we had phones, I used post-its or scrap paper… but I always lost them!Now, I look at my go-to meals list, decide what I want to make that week, and check what ingredients I need. I go through my fridge, freezer, and pantry and see what's missing. I usually still forget something, but maybe only one thing.Anna:You talked about that in our last episode, too. I think I'm a little less organized than you. I'll take a few minutes to scan my pantry, fridge, and freezer. We've suggested before that once you have your list of go-to meals, you can create a pantry ingredients list from that. It's a quick way to check whether you've got the basics before you head to the store.But there are different levels of organization, and it's about figuring out what works for you.Elizabeth:Totally. And the simplest thing really is just taking a moment during meal planning to look through what you already have. Sometimes I think I have something and skip checking, then later realize I don't.Anna:Been there!So, can you walk us through your steps for keeping your kitchen stocked—maybe a recap?Elizabeth:Sure! It's mostly just that I add things to my Notes app whenever I run out. That way, when I'm making my grocery list or placing an order, I can just check that one list.Anna:We use a small whiteboard inside our pantry for that. My husband and I both write on it, but I have to remember to look at it! Your system is more streamlined.Elizabeth:Yeah, my kids are 17 and 21, so they both have phones. I tell everyone to either tell me what we're out of or text it to me so I can add it to my Notes app. It really helps to have one place to look.Anna:That's so smart. It's always that mental checklist—“What am I forgetting?”—and this simplifies it.You're a big fan of convenience foods, and I'd love to hear about your go-to items. What makes cooking easier at your house?Elizabeth:Definitely Rao's Marinara. We buy it in a three-pack from Costco. Chad, my husband, keeps our Costco list. We use Rao's for your spinach lasagna, pasta nights, pizzas—so many things!We also love the Just Bare chicken nuggets. Before that, we were really into the Trader Joe's Mandarin Chicken.Frozen waffles, frozen dumplings, boxed mac and cheese—those are weekend lunch staples or quick dinners for the kids. And I love store-bought pesto for tossing with pasta and peas.Oh, and Lundberg shelf-stable precooked rice is a big favorite. Also, frozen tortellini, pre-chopped broccoli, bagged salad, microwave green beans…Anna:Yes! And single-serve hummus, little egg bites from Costco or Trader Joe's, and toaster oven snacks like pizza bites. Cereal too—convenience foods aren't just dinner-specific!Elizabeth:Exactly. It's okay—actually, it's necessary—to use convenience foods. Life is full. Cooking from scratch every night just isn't realistic for most people.Anna:Yes! And we'd love to hear from listeners—what are your favorite convenience foods? Email us or leave a comment on this Substack post.Elizabeth:Yes, please share! I also wanted to mention our No Recipe Required e-book that's on our website. Can you tell everyone how that came to be and how it ties into pantry stocking?Anna:Sure! We wanted to offer more than just a list—we created a book that walks people through our absolute easiest meals. You don't need a recipe—just simple instructions.It's a reminder that not everything has to be made from scratch. We're bombarded with messages telling us we should be baking our own crackers and growing our own veggies. And hey, if I had space, I'd totally have chickens! But that's not realistic for everyone.So this book offers real-life meal ideas—simple, doable, low-pressure.Elizabeth:And the meals in it are mostly things you can make with a well-stocked pantry. Think: spaghetti and meatballs with broccoli. Pasta, jarred sauce, frozen meatballs, and a veggie—done.It doesn't have to be a gourmet salad. It can be sliced cucumbers in a bowl.We want to model for our kids the kind of cooking they can do when they're on their own.Anna:Yes! Okay, I'm putting you on the spot again. Let's say someone just listened to this episode and they have five minutes. What's one thing they can do today to support their pantry?Elizabeth:If they've made their go-to meals list, they could write down the ingredients needed for each one. Or simply peek in their pantry and see what they're out of.Anna:Yes, and sometimes the idea of shopping for a whole week feels overwhelming. You can just grab a few things. You don't need a full grocery trip—just get what you need to feel more supported today.Elizabeth:Totally. It takes some experimenting, but finding a system that works for you is the goal.Anna:Exactly. We hope you're leaving today with one small idea that feels helpful!Elizabeth:Thanks for listening, and we'll see you in a couple of weeks. This is a public episode.

In this edition of the Peristyle Podcast hosts Ryan Abraham and Connor Morrissette (aka "Triple Double") are back in studio talking about what was a massive weekend for Trojan football recruiting with some of the top prospects from across the country descending on Los Angeles to see what USC has to offer. We will get an update on one of the events from Connor, who, along with Chris Trevino, attended a Saturday night dinner in downtown Los Angeles where the Trojan coaching staff was hosting all of their official visitors. Allowing media to attend a recruiting event is a new phenomena and it gave us a rare look behind the curtain of the USC official visit festivities. The Trojans also picked up another commitment this week, adding to the No. 1 recruiting class for the 2026 cycle. Duluth (Ga.) three-star cornerback Peyton Dyer is the 28th commitment for USC's No. 1 recruiting class and the fifth cornerback commit. Ryan and Connor also talk about the paradigm shift in college football following the ratification of the House Settlement that allows for back NIL pay to former student athletes, limits roster sizes for all sports, allows athletic departments to share revenue with student athletes directly and creates the College Sports Commission to enforce these new "real NIL" rules. Both Ryan and Connor feel that USC is well positioned heading into this new era of college athletics, but there are certainly unchartered waters ahead.

In this episode, I'm sharing the best tips for maximizing your budget when it comes to party planning - especially kids parties. I have this way of doing it that's efficient and organized and easy to decide what's worth paying for and what's better to do yourself. I'm sharing specific examples from the Party I just threw for Parker because I think it will give you lots and lots of ideas for the parties you plan in the future. This one was a baseball and ice cream theme so I definitely needed ice cream cones. I got two quotes for companies to scoop fresh ice cream and make ice cream sandwiches and both came in around $850. Instead, I bought the mini ice cream cones from Trader Joe's for $.46 each - brushed them with a little water and dip them in sprinkles and the kids were so happy. I took what would have been something like $12 per kid and made it $.46 and if they had two cones, I made it one dollar. And it had the same feeling as doing the expensive vendor, and nobody knew the difference! There are so many ways to plan your parties so you spend the money in the most strategic ways and and figure out ways to keep things low in cost, but have a big impact. Tips! -spread out your spend -get multiple quotes -start early if you can -set max budgets for some of the creative people -do half vendor, half yourself (balloons and treats) -hat vendor - $450 - DIY would have been similar plus helper time to do it -caricature - $300 for 3 hours - best deal in town -pizzas & taco guy- sometimes make it pretty and sometimes just to feed people -snack table is so easy and so useful and ads to decor -print signs at a store like FEDEX - then I had my sign girl just do 2 main signs -print tags, papers and “stickers” yourself -pizza boxes had our logo on it - just paper cut and taped -Etsy has great resources -before you rent - see what you would spend buying and do you have a place to store? This time I spent too much on a wood wall - but I decided I needed it too late -you either have to spend lots of time or lots of money! But you dont have to do both -use the school of YouTube ***Here's the link to my new party book!!*** https://howtobeawesomeateverything.com/pages/the-ultimate-kids-party-planning-guidebook CHEERS to your next awesome party!!

In this episode of the Loco Experience Podcast, I sit down with Joe and Melissa Basta, co-founders of Tellus, an outdoor apparel brand (and social enterprise) based in Fort Collins. They share their founding story, focusing on their commitment to sustainability using recycled or organic materials and donating 100% of their net profits to environmental initiatives. Melissa explains her role in overseeing marketing and the company's give-back programs, while Joe discusses his background in Outward Bound and Peace Corps, which influenced their company's mission and values. They discuss the challenges and successes of launching their flagship store in Fort Collins. Tellus was seeded with funds from the sale of a previous business, Rodelle, which Joe developed into a vertically integrated vanilla extract business, connecting hundreds of farmers in Madagascar with millions of shoppers in Costco and Trader Joe's.The conversation also delves into their personal lives, including their mutual “early life crises” that led them to meet in the Peace Corps, their family dynamics and children, and how they balance their professional and personal lives. Joe and Melissa emphasize the importance of experiences, travel, and flexibility for young people figuring out their career and life journey, and the episode wraps up with a thoughtful discussion on the future of their business and their commitment to making a positive impact on the planet. They've got great gear, a wonderful mission, and strong conversation skills, and I know you'll enjoy getting to know my latest guests, Joe & Melissa Basta.

Episode 100: Reboot Your Meal PlanningWe made it to 100 episodes! Wow!! We're grateful to you all for being here and supporting our work to challenge diet culture and make family nutrition less stressful.In our latest episode, we're celebrating with a topic that comes up a lot—meal planning. But not the Pinterest-perfect kind (no judgement here if you love that kind of meal planning). Anna and I are talking about realistic, flexible planning that supports you instead of stresses you out.We share our personal routines, what “go-to meals” mean in our homes, and how diet culture can sneak into the way we think about food and planning. Whether you're a an avid list-maker or more spontaneous, there's something in here for you.What are your “go-to meals”?

So welcome, everyone. We are here today to chat about rebooting your meal planning. So, Anna, I'm just going to jump right in with the first question slash topic.Elizabeth: Feeding Framework Step #1 is to provide structure, not perfection. In our previous podcast episode, we talked about the feeding framework—and we'll link to it in the show notes in case you didn't have a chance to listen. How does that connect with our meal planning philosophy? And how does diet culture interfere with meal planning?Anna: That's two really important questions! I think a lot of people hear “meal planning” and immediately think it has to look a certain way. Like there's a right way to plan and a right way to follow the plan. A lot of folks also associate meal plans with dieting. But the way you and I think about meal planning is more about support. It's a structure that helps feeding ourselves and our families feel less chaotic.Elizabeth: Yes—exactly. I always regret it when I skip meal planning. Everything feels more chaotic.Anna: Totally. But diet culture can really mess with how we think about meal planning. On social media, you see these perfect plans that take forever to make, or these rigid schedules where every meal is pre-determined. There's this assumption that you have unlimited time and resources. But that's not how we define it. Everyone's meal plan will look different.Elizabeth: Absolutely. I mean, almost every week I end up making something different than I planned. Life happens.Anna: Yes! And one more thing—we share meal ideas every week in our Substack newsletter. Five lunches, five dinners, three breakfasts. The goal isn't to be perfect or different every day. It's to make life easier.Elizabeth: Right, we don't make seven different breakfasts every week! That sounds exhausting.Anna: We also say all the time: meal planning only needs to take 10–15 minutes. Let me walk you through what I do.Anna: I start by looking at our evening activities for the week—soccer practice, concerts, things like that. Then I plan about four dinners. I don't usually assign them to specific nights, but I try to think ahead to busy nights and plan something easy.Anna: Next, I make a list of the ingredients I need and then check the fridge, pantry, and freezer for staples—like milk, bread, eggs, lunch stuff. Then I place a grocery order online, usually on Sunday.Elizabeth: My method isn't as structured! I go to the store more often and I'm lucky to have a farmer's market nearby. I get meat, fish, and produce there in the warmer months. I also enjoy trying new recipes, so sometimes planning takes longer because I want to cook something new.Anna: That's what works for you! I'll also do a Costco or Trader Joe's run once a month. It's a big day when I do both. I joke that I've been hunting and gathering all day!Elizabeth: I feel that. And having frozen or prepared foods from those stores makes weeknights easier. I also plan four dinners and rely on my go-to meals to fill in the rest. Speaking of which—let's talk about go-to meals.Anna: A go-to meal, for me, is something I usually have the ingredients for and can make in 15–20 minutes. One of mine is Black Beans and Rice—it's super simple. We've made it for years. You use canned beans, cumin, salsa or tomatoes, and rice. Great for leftovers too.Elizabeth: Yes, for me it's similar—easy ingredients I have on hand. Everyone's go-to meals will look different. The key is they shouldn't stress you out.Anna: Exactly. We also both rely on the “cook once, eat twice” idea. If I'm making a bigger dinner on Monday, I want it to be something we can use for another night or lunches. Spinach lasagna is one—great for lunchboxes. Or grilled chicken becomes BBQ chicken salad or pizza. Everyone can build their own bowl.Elizabeth: I do something similar with black beans and corn and tomatoes. It turns into burritos, rice bowls, even a topping for chicken. We also do Sweet Potato and Black Bean Tacos—I double the batch and use the extras for bowls with pre-cooked rice.Anna: Love that. Soups and pasta dishes work well too. I like anything that helps with lunches.Elizabeth: If someone only has five minutes, what's one thing they can do this week to feel less stressed about meal planning?Anna: Make a list of your go-to meals. Just write them down—stream of consciousness. Then you can build from there and even make a list of pantry staples to keep on hand.Elizabeth: Yes! I always check my go-to list when I feel stuck. Anything else we should add?Anna: Just remember: there's no right way to do this. You don't have to make black beans and rice. Find what's easy and accessible for you.Elizabeth: So true. What are you making tonight?Anna: Actually, we have a school dinner event. But next time I cook, it'll probably be tacos. Always a favorite in my house.Elizabeth: I'm making coconut rice with roasted chicken thighs, carrots, purple broccoli from the farmers market, and a peanut sesame sauce. It's a few components, but not a ton of work. The Lundberg coconut rice is already cooked and microwaveable. (not sponsored)Anna: That sounds amazing.Elizabeth: Let us know what you're cooking!

In this edition of the Peristyle Podcast hosts Ryan Abraham and Connor Morrissette (aka "Triple Double") are back in studio talking about the 2025 USC football schedule and how the early November trip to Lincoln could be the determining factor for the Trojans having a successful campaign. After finishing the regular season 6-6 in 2024 with no true Big Ten road victories, USC will try to take a huge step forward and be a real factor in the conference title race this season. To do so, the Trojans will need to grind out some tough victories on the road and we are circling that November 1 date against the Cornhuskers as the barometer game for USC. Looking at the way too early top-25 polls USC will face a few ranked teams on the road including Notre Dame, Oregon and Illinois and face off against Michigan at home. The post-spring SP+ rankings have Notre Dame at No. 6, Oregon at No. 7, Michigan at No. 10, Illinois at No. 19 then Iowa at No. 28 and Nebraska at No. 34 (with USC at No. 30). No other program on the Trojans schedule is in the SP+ top-50. Most sportsbooks currently have USC's over/under win total at 7.5, but barely surpassing that with an 8-4 record likely wouldn't be enough for Trojan fans to feel the season was a success. If we assume the pair of top-10 road games are losses, it doesn't leave much room for error for the Trojans to get to that 9-win mark. To have any chance of success USC will need to win its tough home games, so let's assume the Trojans go 2-1 with Michigan, Iowa and at Illinois. That leaves the November 1 game against Nebraska as the lynchpin to a successful season. The Huskers, like the Trojans, did a lot of work in the off-season to try and improve and some even feel Nebraska could make a run at the College Football Playoffs. USC got the better of Nebraska last season in the Coliseum, so Matt Rhule and company will be trying to return the favor when the Trojans come to town. In our opinion, both programs will desperately need that victory to take the next step towards conference respectability. CLICK HERE for 30% OFF an annual VIP membership to USCFootball.com!

Imagine a small town in western Italy, home to a family-owned company that got its start canning fresh fruits and veggies more than 80 years ago. Now imagine that company in 2025, still owned by the same family, and still preserving the flavors of the local produce – not just in canned fruits and veggies, but in supremely satisfying sauces, too. And now imagine you're listening to a podcast… oh, wait, here's where reality and imagination intersect. In this episode of Inside Trader Joe's, we're up close and personal with the supplier of a number of Trader Joe's sauces – including Lemon Pesto, recently returned to our grocery shelves for a limited time. It's a captivating conversation that covers topics as wide-ranging as tradition and innovation, and definitely left us hungry for more. Pass the pesto, please! Transcript (PDF)
