What's This Place? podcast turns one this week. I launched my first episode with Sharon Smyl from Collected Joy a year ago this week and heck yeah, I'm going to celebrate!
I'm giving away a chance to win one of 3 garments from Blondie Apparel, a 100% Made in Canada garment...from fabric to hang tags to thread.
HOW TO WIN?!
Go to my Instagram or Twitter for rules and entry.
You can also send a screen shot of a review you write on your podcast app between now and September 27th at 11:59pm to miranda@theodore1922.com.
This week on the podcast we go behind the blood sweat and tears of Blondie Apparel. Brodie and Michelle Brodie started out making hats and scarves but soon moved on to designing womenswear made here in Canada.
"Designed in Canada" is one thing but manufacturing that design here at home is a Level Up not many businesses have the guts to pull off.
Blondie Apparel decided to put everything on the line and start manufacturing garments entirely in Canada...even the fabric!
But could they do it?
Would the infrastructure handle their business?
Could they compete if they went all Canadian?
Who are Brodie and Michelle and what is Blondie Apparel?
Let's go inside and find out.
Enjoying the podcast? I am fiercely independent, and rely on listeners like you to help me stick around.
Can you share the episode on social media, or write a
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ review in Apple podcasts?! I would be so grateful.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
