Casey Shea & adventures in cake sitting
This week, Kassie and Rose interview their own producer and momager, Casey Shea, the 1/3 of the Kitchen Tape team you rarely hear from.
Casey gives us a recap of her previous life as a pastry chef, and how the pandemic pivoted her into a food-adjacent role in the cannabis industry! (dont worry, she confirms everything you've assumed about working in weed)
Casey explains how she channelled her desire to collaborate with friends into a cake-sitting passion project. Kassie and Rose work on a new group-fitness business plan for Casey's inevitable next career change, and the girls decide who to eat if they were ever stranded together.
Make sure to follow Casey on IG to hear about the Sweet Cheeks 2025 Cake Calendar launch!

Pablo Murillo & his sober empire
This week, Kassie and Rose are joined by Pablo Murillo, the co-founder of Aguas Locas, a pandemic born aguas frescas company, and Bar Nuda, a mexican inspired N/A bar event that allows everyone to enjoy the fun of a night out without any pressure of alcohol.
Pablo shares his passion for creating safe spaces to celebrate his culture and community, and how he brought this idea he started in his garage to fruition, with the help of his co-founder Morris.
Kassie laments that as an adult, almost every event tends to be alcohol centric, and how she would prefer to have the same amount of care-free, childlike fun without needing a little liquid courage. Rose gets very excited about all the different offerings that Bar Nuda events have, and even tries to pitch adding hopscotch to the never ending list.
Aguas Locas is now partnered with MLS Div 2 Team - Ventura County Football Club! Check them out at all home games!
They will also be participating in The Catalina Wine Mixer May 31-June2
Bar Nuda's next event is a Salsa Night at La Cha Cha Cha in DTLA on June 23rd and then a PRIDE event with Namari on June 29
Make sure to follow Pablos businesses on IG to see where you can find the newest version of his CANNED Aguas Locas, and be sure to attend a Bar Nuda event this summer, where you can drink to remember.

Catalina Flores & Pastry Art
This week, Kassie and Rose are joined by Catalina Flores, the brilliant creative behind Panhead LA, creating drool-worthy grazing tables and dessert spreads that are part pastry and part art.
Cat talks about how she has translated her passion for creating art into her pastry table-scape world. She shocks Rose and Kassie with the power and beauty of telling people 'No' and explains the importance of prioritizing caring for your whole self.
The girls do take a moment to address the one thing that their most problematic bosses in kitchens have all had in common....but most importantly share the joy of creating an inclusive community both in and out of the kitchen. (sometimes you really need to get outside and touch grass)
Make sure to follow Panhead on IG to keep up with the show-stopping pastry installations that Catalina is creating.
