Unpaid Intern Nutmeg is back in the studio welcoming Mike Mekailek, who has degrees in chemistry, art history, music (general!), and voice & opera. He works in patron relations for the Delaware Symphony Orchestra, plays organ, sings baritone, and is allergic to grapes, so we share some beer with him.
This episode the Darlings get the scoop from newly minted Delaware Enthusiast Susan Sauter, who wrote a letter to Wilmington’s mayor imploring him to explain why she would love it here. Spoiler: She’s only been here 10 months, but is already so ingrained in the food and art scenes that restaurant owners know her by name and she’s in more clubs than us.
This episode we catch up with Christina Jedra and Jeanne Kuang, reporters at The News Journal. We chat investigative reporting, the importance of local journalism to our community, why we should pay for subscriptions, and even a few stories about Nutmeg’s furry friends.
