Korean Candy and Roadtrip candy
In August, Leah and Jocelyn took a road trip to Rochester, Minnesota where they bought a lot of candy. Then our friend Jamie in Germany sent a care package. Jocelyn's friend Matt went to Korea and brought us back candy.
We have so much candy, friends.
We're trying candy from Germany, Korea and Minnesota. We're talking sad documentaries and highway signs. Fast 9, AMC movie pass and so much more. -
Shai Korman visits Candy Chat HQ
In July - JULY - Shai Korman from Friday Night Movie Podcast was in Chicago for 24 hours and he dropped into the Candy Chat Chicago HQ for a quick record. Then we sat on the file for months, because... life is hard sometimes.
It was worth the wait - Shai tells us about how our mutual friend Justin Korda changed campaigning at their high school in Montreal, his favorite parts of a nuero-psych exam and how a good joke means love.
July was when our second care package from Jamie in Germany arrived, so we started trying some treats from Europe!
Listen to Shai and his sister's on Friday Night Movie Podcast and
Shai's first episode with us
