Bonus Episode: Dating in Seattle with Jennifer Smith & Jackie Farrar Jun 28, 2021

Show notes

We're letting our collective hair down to discuss the joys and pitfalls of dating in Seattle. Joining me are guest co-hosts Jennifer Smith of Malcontent News along with Jackie Farrar. Let the fun commence!

Please note: while our discussion is generally humorous and light-hearted, we do share some very personal stories and traumatic experiences. It's my hope that this episode encourages more awareness and discussion within the Seattle music community around dating, healthy social interaction and creating welcoming environments for all.

Show notes

In this episode I'm joined by singer-songwriter Cody Choi and their bandmate Elisha (Eli) of SuperCoze - both up-and-coming voices in the Seattle music scene! We talk about their experiences growing up in the age of social media, along with their recent (socially distanced) return to live performance, both as SuperCoze and with their new band, Bananaganz!
