3 Fantastic New (To Me) Podcasts

Published on April 20, 2016 By Emily. Updated on April 20, 2016

My love of podcasts has been mentioned many times on this blog.  I continue to find new shows I love and it seems only fair to share them with you.  Feel free to link your favorite shows in the comments below!

West Wing Weekly

THE WEST WING WEEKLY – “an episode-by-episode discussion of one of television’s most beloved shows”

I was relatively late to the West Wing fan club, but I did finish watching all of the episodes at some point last year and love the show.  I was super excited to hear that Josh Malina (who plays Will Bailey on the series) and musician/podcaster Hrishikesh Hirway were planning to do an episode by episode discussion of the show.  So far the podcast is up to episode 5 and actors and writers have been featured as guests.

The Longest Shortest Time

The Longest Shortest Time – “the parenting show for everyone”

I really do feel like this show is for everyone.  As someone with a lot of friends with kids and someone who works with teenagers on a daily basis, I’ve found the episodes I’ve listened to very interesting and I downloaded a bunch of the back catalog.  So far I’ve heard episodes about a child with sensory issues (episode #55), an interview with the author of the new Spider-Woman comics – in which Spider-Woman is pregnant (episode #76), and a great discussion of bragging verses judgment (episode #31).  The latest episode is Terry Gross talking about not having kids, which I’m very interested in listening to.

You Must Remember This

You Must Remember This – “a storytelling podcast about the secret and/or forgotten histories of Hollywood’s first century”

I’m not really a classic film fan, but this podcast brings to light the real lives of the people behind some of the most famous movies.  So far I’ve learned how Norma Jeane became Marilyn Monroe and why Judy Garland continues to have such a strong “afterlife” in pop culture and I have 14 episodes from the archives downloaded to my phone.  Of particular interest are the “Star Wars” series, which discuss the activities of movie stars during war times and a multi-part series on blacklisting in Hollywood.  The whole show is written, narrated (with occasional guests), recorded and edited by a single person – Karina Longworth – which makes the show even more awesome.

Last week Brian and I finally got around to hiring Last week Brian and I finally got around to hiring a sitter for a rare night out. We went to dinner at @publicna and took advantage of the opportunity with drinks, appetizers and dessert.

It was no surprise that Public was close to full on a Wednesday night - everything was so good.

For the fourth year, I've recapped the best new (to me) recipes I made this year in the hope that they'll give you some new dishes to try. This year's list is short, but delicious. It includes @budgetbytes My Favorite Recipes of 2022
Published on December 30, 2022 By Emily. Updated on December 30, 2022

It’s hard to believe that 2022 is basically behind us. Though overall this year found me getting back to the person I want to be (post-babies and “post”-pandemic), I did not try nearly as many new recipes this year as I used to. In fact, I was pleasantly surprised to see that I’d made note of any new-to-me recipes I wanted to share in this post. This year’s list is short, but delicious. It includes recipes from @budgetbytes, @smittenkitchen and @howsweeteats.

@coastalmainebotanicalgardens continues to be one @coastalmainebotanicalgardens continues to be one of the highlights of all my return trips to Boothbay and their annual Gardens Aglow event continues to impress. It was great to be back to walking the gardens instead of the pandemic drive through and there seemed to be more lights than ever.  I'm already looking forward to next year.

Fall in the Berkshires is always incredible, but t Fall in the Berkshires is always incredible, but this year we've had weather that has also been outstanding. The past 2 weekends have included time at Jaeschke Orchards, the Greylock Glen, and the Ashuwillticook Rail Trail as well as stopping to photograph any random foliage I see. 
Check out the last slide for video of some feathered friends we saw on a walk.

@freshgrassfestival continues to be one of my favo @freshgrassfestival continues to be one of my favorite events each year, and it doesn't hurt that it's just minutes away from home. Enjoying the festival with my kids is definitely a different experience than without, but it's still a good time. The weather was especially cooperative today which was great for all the laps I did around the @massmoca campus pushing a stroller. I'm already looking forward to next year.
