KRCB-FM: Mouthful
Summary: Mouthful, the Wine Country's Most Delicious Hour Sunday Evening 7 - 8 pm Host: Michele Anna Jordan We like to think of Mouthful as a conversation around a dinner table, so pour yourself a glass of wine and join us every Sunday evening. Our discussions with winemakers, farmers, cookbook authors, writers, photographers, filmmakers, nutritionists, chefs, restaurateurs and environmentalists take unexpected, surprising and delicious turns as we explore how we eat, drink, grow and celebrate our food, and feed each other. We take the time to get to know our guests, we go beyond sound bites, and we look at food, wine and agriculture in the larger context of our lives. We're sometimes political, always passionate, often lighthearted and sometimes silly. If you eat, you'll enjoy Mouthful. Mouthful is a three-time James Beard Award Nominee for Electronic Journalism.
