#1 Trash Plate Podcast

I can’t remember when I first heard of the trash plate, but ever since I did I’ve wanted to go to Rochester, NY.

Alas, Rochester NY is some distance from London, England where I used to live, so the opportunity never arose... UNTIL NOW! Invited on a cross-country road trip from Chicago to New Hampshire, I suggested Rochester as our overnight stopping point (solely so we could get plates)

In advance of the trip I checked to see if any of my favourite podcasts talked about Plates. None of them did, but I did find Talkin Trash Roc and wowwww what a treat.

I love it. This podcast has me SO hyped to get to Roc City. I wish I could stay longer than a night. I’m excited to try DogTown, maybe get breakfast at Tahou’s. I want to come back for the sauce/plate festivals. I want all the plates.

The podcast is really well produced and is genuinely hilarious. I find myself laughing out loud pretty often and it just makes me want to hang out with Randy and Rob (and guests!) and join in the Great De-plates. Really fun and easy listening. A great time from start to finish. Keep up the content!! LOVE IT
