    SOMAPSO Pod - BONUS: Leigh Friend + SOMA Wheelhouse = A Big Cheese Hug

    We sit down with Leigh Friend of SOMA Wheelhouse to get the low-down on the new brick-and-mortar space, eat cheese, and, of course, talk Muppets. Leigh schools us on cheese, cheese-makers, and cheese-making and tells us some of the BIG plans for the new space. It’s coming soon and we can’t wait! We chat about cheese pairings, cheese sweat, local producers, and cheese as a metaphor for life. This episode feels like a giant cheese hug and we enjoyed every moment of recording it. Thanks, Leigh!
