Dinner, Dialogue & Debate
Welcome to Plate & Ponder — where a longtime married couple, now proud empty nesters looking for a highly constructive way to occupy our time, pour a glass of wine, share a meal, and tackle the biggest stories shaping our world. She's an inner-city charter school director, elected official, and former school board president. He’s a media executive, professor, and author. Together, they bring decades of parenting, public service, politics, and purpose to the table.
From the joys and growing pains of an empty house to the cultural and geopolitical headlines you can’t ignore, this is a candid kitchen-table conversation that’s equal parts heart, humor, and hard truths.
Unscripted. Unfiltered. Unapologetically curious. Pull up a chair — dinner is served.

  • PLATE & PONDER - "Flynn's Birthday Extravaganza & Why Dogs Are Awesome"
    2025/12/08

    A final Sunday evening before we go FULL-HOUSE for the next month with the kids home for the holidays... That means one last leisurely dinner with our friends Katie & Phil Brodkin (and our epic dogs). Then the chaos of college kids will sweep thru our little beach town!

    Most importantly on this episode, we celebrate the TENTH BIRTHDAY of our favorite furry friend, FLYNN!

    Then we discuss the importance of pets to the well-being of their owners. You want to live longer and healthier? Get a dog (or any other pet for that matter)!

    We move on to the "COVID Induced Reluctance to Leave the Couch" that happened to all of us (and remains), and why, you MUST break thru it. 100% of the time, you'll be happier that you got out and socialized with friends, rather than binge watched the latest whatever on Netflix......

    And finally, a quiz is taken by Chris to see just how well she knows and understands (and listens to), Jen! And guess what? He passes with flying colors!

    Please follow, download, review, and enjoy! We'll be launching new episodes regularly throughout December, so get ready for MASSIVE FUN and ENGAGING CONVERSATION as we continue to PLATE & PONDER!

    PS. GO TULANE AND GO MIAMI! College Football Playoff bracket has been announced! Let's GO!

  • PLATE & PONDER "LA Tunnels, Water Cooler TV, Jury Duty, & Potluck's"
    2025/12/05

    Yes, Los Angeles has tunnels, and we've used them! Want to know where they are? We tell you!

    And what happened to the old Water Cooler? You know, the one that we all gathered around and conversed about who-knows-what -- regardless of political affiliations, religious beliefs, or what-have-ya...

    And what about the television shows we discussed around those said-coolers?

    And, oh yeah, a near miss with Jury Duty this week...

    And finally, what's the deal with Potluck dinners and gatherings? Is that old-fashioned and COVID infested? Or are they coming back??

    We cover it all on this episode! Please follow, download, review, and enjoy!!!!!!!!

  • PLATE & PONDER - "Where Did Everyone Go?" - Full-House Hangover Episode
    2025/12/01

    For all of us newbie empty-nesters, our small town felt completely overrun by college kids returning home to get some free meals, have mom do their laundry, catch-up with old friends at their former stomping grounds, and, eventually, leave a little bit of havoc in their wake... And it all repeats again in a few weeks after Finals!

    So yes, we discuss that a bit... But we also hit some serious topics too:

    1 - Coaching loyalties, both in high school sports and college.

    2 - USC Trojan achievements (Don't worry Bruin fans. We do it quickly!).

    &

    3 - The Challenge Beijing poses on Hollywood and the world thru mandated narratives. ("Zootopia 2" has re-wakened The Dragon!).

    Jen and Chris are back as a solo duet, and we are loving it...... Hopefully you do too!

    Please follow, download, review, and enjoy!!!!!!!
