Lisa Pidge, founder of the Laugh Cellar (since 2014) and actual certified pickleball pro, is back on the Spiel with updates on new comedy shows around Sonoma County during the Wine Country Comedy Fest. She talks about how she finds her comedians (this year's lineup includes Chase O'Donnell, Aiko Tanaka, Lisa Gilbert, JJ Barrows, Helen Chu, Vien Phommachanh, Amanda Cohen and Solange Castro) and why her wife is a great gardener.
She also decries the supposed "Gen Z Stare", what it was like being a latchkey kid and the fact that there was a smoking section on her high school campus back... in... the... day.
Every week our podcast guests answer YOUR questions about wine country and visiting Sonoma.
This week Lisa takes on:
