Westchatter: Duncan & Dadas with Sandra Cardenas Jul 24, 2023

Show notes

In this episode of Westchatter, we talk with Sandra Cardenas of Duncan & Dadas. D&D's is recently the talk around town. It is the restaurant at Eden's Lanes and it is far from bowling alley food. Since we have recorded this episode, I have visited the restaurant and ordered a pizza and their loaded waffle fries and they were both amazing. You have to check out this episode and, moreso, the food at Duncan & Dadas.

Westchatter: Village President Elect Greg Hribal Apr 24, 2023

Show notes

We are super excited about this episode. Greg Hribal was definitely an underdog in the Municpal Election, only in the sense that he was a write-in candidate. Two weeks after the election, the results are in and Greg had a commanding lead in the polls and we are excited to have him as our next Village President and guest on Westchatter. This is an episode that you cannot skip.
