We don't know if they're dangerous, but we do know they sound good. This year, "Liaisons" is the theme for the Valley of the Moon Music Festival. In this week's podcast we have an engaging and informative liaison with Tanya Tomkins and Eric Zivyan, cellist and pianist and wife and husband, and co-directors of the popular chamber music festival that takes place around Sonoma Valley. This year they discuss "Liaisons"—a celebration of artistic and personal connections spanning centuries. "Whether you’re a devoted classical music enthusiast or a curious newcomer, this season promises to transport, inspire, and connect us all through the universal language of music." More information about the Valley of the Moon Music Festival is at: https://valleyofthemoonmusicfestival.org Every week our podcast guests answer YOUR questions about wine country and visiting Sonoma. This week Tanya and Eric take on: Where are some good places to hear music outdoors in Sonoma? We love classical music and wine - what should pair with our listening?

The latest scoop: We scream for ice cream with Ramie from Sweet Scoops 58:25

منذ 28 يومًا58:25

58:25

Summer in Sonoma! Jump in the pool, get the BBQ going, have a Sonoma Spritz and don't forget to scream for ice cream. Luckily, Ramie Hencmann from Sweet Scoops is here to talk about her delightfully wonderful shop right on the Sonoma Plaza, making homemade ice cream with local fruits and flavors. Ramie's husband Joe has been making ice cream since he was 19, and in Ramie's words he is always thinking about new flavors. "Joe loves making ice cream. He's always thinking about the flavors, and he has the mind to think of how it all will work." And speaking of flavors, we do a tasting of three very delicious samples: vanilla, cherry wine (made with local wine) and lemon blueberry, with blueberries from Serres Ranch and lemons from the backyard trees of various friends and family. Every week our podcast guests answer YOUR questions about wine country and visiting Sonoma. This week Ramie answers: Favorite spot and dish to get on the Sonoma Square for a late lunch or afternoon bite? We're at the Sonoma Plaza with kids for the afternoon - what should we do? Where can we cool off in Sonoma Valley? (And did you know you can DoorDash some Sweet Scoops right to your poolside? Yes - Ramie recommends it!) What's your go-to pizza from Mary's in Sonoma?

Return of the Mark: Late Night Wine Tasting in Sonoma with Mark Bodenhamer from Sonoma Chamber 1:10:17

منذ 6 weeks1:10:17

1:10:17

Mark Bodenhamer of the Sonoma Valley Chamber of Commerce has good news for all you late-night wine tasters: the new "Friday Night Flights" wine tasting program will make sure you can find a wine tasting room open past 5 pm! And there are even restaurants pairing with them to offer corkage deals. But before we get to that, we have to talk about how proud we are of our kids for graduating high school (very) and try to remember our own high school graduations (go Santa Rosa High Panthers!) Like all of our podcasts when Mark is on, the conversation then veers to whatever else is on our mind including the Music In Place Sonoma Sundays on the Plaza concerts, the Broadway in Sonoma from Transcendence Theatre Company and the Sonoma Stompers baseball games. We then try to remember if Carole King is still alive. Is she? Yes? No? Google says... Full listing of all the events we talk about is at https://www.sonomavalley.com/events Like all our podcast guests, Mark answers YOUR Sonoma questions: I saw something called the Old Faithful Geyser is nearby. What is that and where is it? Which winery has the closest vineyards to the Plaza? What kind of cheese does Sonoma make? Best burger to eat with a view?

You get a medal! You get a medal! Everyone gets a medal at the Napa to Sonoma Half Marathon! 52:46

There's a new tour in The Springs at the Fairmont Sonoma Mission Inn & Spa, the Agua Rica comedic history tour , and we had such a good time at it that we forgot to write an intro for our podcast with returning guest Gretchen Schoenstein from the Napa to Sonoma Half Marathon and Rose 5K. Gretchen takes a pause from running (she's now doing 5Ks, having retired from running more than 130 half-marathons) to tell us about the big race, what to expect and how to sign up. PLUS, she listens to our very practical pitch that we can replace the cancelled horse racing at the Sonoma County Fairgrounds with amateur athletes dressed up in cow and grape mascot costumes. (Want to run the race? Sign up details here: https://runnapatosonoma.com ) Like all of our guests Gretchen takes a turn answering YOUR Sonoma questions, and this week she takes on: We are looking for a recommendation for wine MAKING and/or vineyard tours. Two or three recommendations would be appreciated. - via text HELP! I’m hosting a party for my neighbors Scott and Scott, who are moving to Mexico, and want to choose some Sonoma wines for an informal party in San Francisco in my very small, kind of foggy backyard. - Your Much, Much Older Sister Lisa My grandparents used to live in Sonoma - and we have the street that they lived on- how could we find their address?

Vine Life: King of Wine Podcasts "Life Between The Vines" crashes the Sonoma Spiel 1:01:50

منذ 11 weeks1:01:50

1:01:50

The l-o-n-g-e-s-t running wine podcaster in the country just so happened to be near Sonoma Valley, so we tricked him into coming onto our podcast. Ray Fister with Life Between The Vines has done more than a thousand interviews with winemakers from around the world with a simple premise: he sets up the microphone and the camera and hits record. Everything else just comes out of conversation as it flows. "Wine shouldn't be scary," says Ray, who's background as an audio engineer and musician is paired with his love for wine in this passion project. (His website: https://lifebetweenthevines.com .) During the Spiel, Fister relates how his childhood in Cleveland and working in hospitality brought him to learn about wine, and how he's met winemakers from New York to Florida to Michigan and all over California, Oregon and Washington. Like all our podcast guests he takes a turn answering YOUR Sonoma questions, and this time he takes on: -We had a great time wine tasting in Sonoma, and want to find some wines from where we are from in the Midwest. What’s a good way to find Midwestern Wines? And how are they different than those in California? -I’ve really enjoyed listening to the Sonoma Spiel podcast, but I want to take a deeper dive into the world of wine podcasting. Can you recommend some good wine podcasts? -I'm reaching out to request for a lodging recommendation in Sonoma & Napa . This is for a VIP group planning a trip in the area and the main purpose is to play golf as well as winery visit. The organizer is looking for a lodging with a golf course in both Sonoma and Napa. -Where can I smoke on the Sonoma Plaza?

Rod Marymor from Music In Place brings professional musicians to the Sonoma Plaza for free concerts for the community to enjoy. What started as a way to keep musicians working during the pandemic has grown to a movement bringing concerts to the people in the Grinstead Amphitheatre at the Sonoma Plaza. Rod goes over the schedule for the summer and highlights the diversity of the concerts, with performers coming from all over the Bay Area to entertain. Oh - and there will be wine, because this is Sonoma. He also promos the first "Battle of the Bands" to be held outdoors in the Sonoma Plaza, an all-day extravaganza with local teens showcasing their talents the weekend before Bottlerock. Is this the beginning of "Baby Bottlerock?" Find out! Rod talks a bit more about his days as a journeyman drummer in bands and how hard it is to make a living as a musician. But, it is rewarding if you love the work. Somewhere along the way we take a side trip to old radio and movie sounds with an impromptu foley (sound effects) demonstration. More info on Music in Place at: https://musicinplace.org Every week our podcast guests answer YOUR questions about wine country and visiting Sonoma. This week Rod Marymor takes on: Hi, What are the dimensions of the Sonoma Plaza? Inside/outside? Thanks! - via text I’m visiting from Tucson and attending a conference in San Francisco.

Max Pond : Chocolate Maker and Football Coach Talks The Chocolate Cow and Friday Night Lights 49:48

Cows make chocolate, right? Otherwise why would one of the favorite chocolate stores in Sonoma be called "The Chocolate Cow?" Known for shaved ice, ice cream, gelato, hot chocolate, truffles and an incredible candy selection, the Chocolate Cow is a must-stop for visitors to the Sonoma Plaza. In this episode we learn about the types of chocolate, how to hand-dip treats, what it takes to run a candy store in a wine country town and why it's always important to have plenty of fresh, cold water for visitors. In addition to learning about the importance of fresh chocolate (especially a 65% dark), the trends of Dubai Chocolate (and how the trends have come and gone - salted caramel? Spicy chocolate?) and why pistachios are having their moment, we talk Sonoma Valley football. Go Dragons! Max is the coach of the Sonoma Valley High School football team and has led the team to a winning season recently. (Go Dragons!) Every week our podcast guests answer YOUR questions about wine country and visiting Sonoma, this week Max Pond of Chocolate Cow takes on: We would like to visit both Sonoma and Napa Valleys in one day. How can we do that? Are there any wineries that have tours of how they make wine, but we don’t have to taste the wine. We aren’t really wine drinkers, but we are interested in learning about it. We heard that you can do a walking tour of the Sonoma Plaza - can you tell me more about that? I have a friend from Colorado visiting who likes to go hiking and I don’t have any weekend plans but I can’t have her sleeping on my couch for two days doing nothing what should we do?

A Bohemian in Sonoma: Daedalus Howell on alt-weeklies, live music, indy films and the news biz 53:32

منذ 15 weeks53:32

53:32

Daedalus Howell is the editor of the North Bay Bohemian, "an award-winning alternative newsweekly serving Sonoma & Napa counties." And he's a poet. And a self-taught filmmaker. And an author. And a musician, because that's a thing in Sonoma. Some quick notes we pick along the way: Philip Marlowe, the fictional, hard-boiled noir detective, was born in Santa Rosa. Daedalus left high school early and turned to a life of writing and performing, and then became a free lance writer for a local newspaper. He is a current independent filmmaker, with his latest release being "Werewolf Serenade," which may or may not have been filmed with permission at a Sonoma Valley winery (Kunde Family Winery.) We also note that the North Bay Bohemian forgot to include the Sonoma Spiel in "best podcast" section for the "Best of the North Bay" awards. Every week our podcast guests answer YOUR questions about wine country and visiting Sonoma. This week Daedalus Howell takes on these questions: I’d like to buy a state park “poppy pass” - the annual pass that gets us into most CA state parks. Where can I get one locally? Where can we see redwoods? I was near Sonoma City Hall at noon and everyone was honking at the crowd of people in front of the palm tree. What’s going on there?

Sonoma in Style: Malia Anderson on fashion, style and the challenge of wine country casual 56:42

منذ 16 weeks56:42

It's always fun when Malia Anderson of Style my Malia riffs on fashion, image and style. Malia roundly rejects the "Costco Dad" look as as a "personal look," while extolling her youthful desire to be Dominique Devereaux from Dynasty. (And really, who wouldn't?) In a free-wheeling conversation we talk about when to wear cut-off jeans ("jorts"), how to define your personal style and what, exactly, constitutes "Wine Country Casual" when one is invited to such an event. Before we got to Sonoma questions we handled fashion questions from people in and around Sonoma, and got to these important issues: "Should middle aged men dress their age...like jorts and white new balance sneakers or maybe dockers with a polo and boat shoes? Or is it ok to follow and follow the "younger" trends and wear baggy jeans, retro or vintage style clothes, bold prints etc? This leads me to my next fashion question. Is it ok for older men to have long hair or should they be clean cut?" -R. Montes, the Cloverdale Lady Killer "There are times when men have to be at least a little bit "dressed up" around here when the weather is HOT! Tips on how to do that successfully would be great. Tell us about tailoring - what’s worth having altered...how can alterations make you look your best? Where does vintage/second-hand fit into an overall "look" (if at all) for men, especially?" -Jason G, the Sonoma OG "What are some wine country style no-nos?" Jose L, the Fashion Don of The Springs "Where did you get your fashion sense?" Marie G, The teaching cook and the cooking teacher "What exactly is wine country casual?" Tiffany P, the Credit Union queen "I’m trying to transition from work from home wardrobe and just starting to get back to a more regular professional look. I’m at a loss on modern looks for the sharp dressed gal these days. Where does one even start!?" Meredith R, Queen of the tax tables And like all of our podcast guests, Malia Anderson takes time to answer YOUR Sonoma questions. This week she answers, I’m arriving at Sonoma County Airport (Charles M. Schulz- Santa Rosa - STS) and would like to get to the city of Sonoma. How can I do that? I’m staying near the Sonoma Plaza and looking for wineries that are nearby. Especially red wines. Any ideas? I hear that roundabouts are popular in Sonoma. Where is the next one going to be?

Swimming in Sonoma Valley: Sonoma Splash talks cooling off, exercise, community and fun 56:49

Splish splash in Sonoma- we're talking about the new Sonoma Splash Aquatic Center in Sonoma Valley with Jane Hansen and Allyson Etherington. Tidbits include that Allyson's mom is a long-distance open water swimmer who took photos of other swimmers while swimming away from Alcatraz (and recently swam the Maui channel,) that Jane has been swimming for most of her life and still coaches, and that the proper term for the big puffy coat that the swim coach wears, even though she doesn't yell while doing it, is a parka. Sonoma Splash has an Aqua Park in the summer, a zero-entry warm water pool for therapy and classes, and an entire wellness program held in their community room (which has other classes and is available for private rentals.) We also hear about how visitors who want a good lap swimming session are always welcome during lap swim times, and there are also aquatic exercise classes.

Maui in Sonoma: The Crossover Podcast Event of the Year! 52:50

منذ 18 weeks52:50

52:50

There's no physical bridge between Maui and Sonoma, but there is a spiritual one. Our friends from the Maui Visitors & Convention Bureau just happened to be in the San Francisco Bay Area to talk about why you should go visit Maui now, and we tricked them into coming onto the podcast. (We told them they would be our Very Special Guests, and This Time We Mean It.) Sherry Duong and Leanne Pletcher brought their spirit of aloha to talk about where to visit in Maui, food trucks to try, adventures beyond the beaches, and the spirit and resilience of Maui's residents. They also filled us in on loco moco, Spam Musubi, and what's all the fuss with poke bowls. (There's even a new contest for Maui residents - the "Anything But I'a (Fish) Poke Contest" that encourages creative poke bowl recipes that use anything other than fish. We also chat about things we have in common (history tours, natural beauty, farmers markets) and things that are unique to each of us (pineapple wine, hot air balloon tours). Every week our podcast guests answer YOUR questions about wine country and visiting Sonoma. Oddly enough, we got a lot of questions in the Sonoma visitors center about travel from Sonoma to Maui, and so we were fortunate that our friends from Maui were here to help. This week they took on: What is the tallest mountain in the world and is it true that it’s in Hawaii? I keep hearing about this thing called poke. What is it and where should I get it in Maui? I’m heading from Sonoma to Maui soon and want to find some local wines. Where should I go and what should I taste? Is it better to visit Haleakalā at sunrise or sunset?

Almost spring! Steve Ledson on Kenwood, Ledson Winery, and not sleeping much 50:17

Rancher, hay baler, contractor, winemaker... if Steve Ledson sat in our podcast studio any longer he probably would have admitted to several other jobs he has had over a varied life in and around the Sonoma Valley. This week on the Sonoma Spiel podcast he talks about growing up in the northern Sonoma Valley area of Kenwood and exploring the woods that would become public parks like Annadel and Sugarloaf. In a wide ranging interview we also hear about the vaunted Moon Mountain AVA, one of the top winegrowing regions in the United States, his passion for fly fishing and his quest for conservation of natural resources. Every week our podcast guests answer YOUR questions about wine country and visiting Sonoma. This time Steve answered these Sonoma questions: We're moving out of the area in 2 weeks: What are your "not to miss spots" for restaurants? Is the Sonoma art walk continuing this summer? I’m here in town for a few days and looking for someone to drive our car to take us wine tasting? Is this possible? I was driving through Kenwood and I saw what looked like large, smoky campfires in the fields. What’s going on with that? I keep seeing mannequins around Sonoma Valley wearing amazing dresses made of corks and champagne cages and all sorts of recycled items. What is this?

Ginny Krieger with the Sonoma International Film Fest is back on the Sonoma Spiel podcast (three-peat!) to talk about the upcoming film festival (March) and the more than 100 films showing during the big event. Like all the SIFF events there is a curious culinary component and this year it's a fiesta of Italian cooking with "Marcella's Italian Dinner," celebrating legendary Marcella Hazan. (This intimate four-course wine dinner, crafted by Sonoma’s award-winning female chefs—Domenica Catelli (Catelli’s), Tracey Shepos-Cenami (Jackson Family Wines), and Chef Gia Passalacqua (Chef and Winemaker)—promises an exquisite journey through Italian flavors paired with exceptional wines.) As we go over the different films coming we break out some movie treats courtesy of the Sebastiani Theatre like Good & Plenty candy and popcorn. And like all of our Sonoma Spiel podcast guests, Ginny answers YOUR Sonoma questions during "We Get Questions." This week she takes on: Where can we go to see wildflowers blooming now? - via email to info@sonomavalley.com Is there a fee to enter Sonoma Valley - via email What’s a good place for Chinese food in Sonoma? Can I propose to my girlfriend in the Plaza? Is that allowed?
