    Epidode 3 - Last Round's on Us

    It's the last day of school!! We still managed to knock out a podcast episode before Summer vacation! Talking go-to teacher breakfasts and other items on a brunch menu you may not have considered... including rating some Faculty brunch foods. *Featuring special guests Mrs. Benedetto and Ms. Friel, in to tell us a little bit about their favorite beverages and a few complaints they have about Brunch menus and parking problems. **Complete transparency: we recorded an episode the day before but, due to user error, the episode was left on the cutting room floor. So this is a redo but a very good conversation. Enjoy!

    Exploration of the history behind brunch, and a random generator of topics helps us to start off our very first show. We also learn that we need better editing. * Bacon was not consumed during the recording of this episode... However if we had some - it would have been 🐖🥓
