    To celebrate Thanksgiving, we are discussing all things food this month. Why do formal dining rooms exist? Who doesn't want a dumbwaiter? Do you prefer harvest gold or avocado? Are new appliances just a giant scam? We will talk about all this and more in this month's episode. Be sure to check our website for lots of images and links: verdigrispodcast.org. We are also on Facebook and Instagram. Whether you prefer 🥧, 🍗, 🥔, or just avoiding family, Happy Thanksgiving!

    This month, we are discussing ugly despised *interesting* buildings. We all have something we love even though everyone else hates it. For Rae, that love is for Split Levels.

You'll learn about the origins of these buildings and we'll discuss their pros and cons. So, are you #teamsplitlevel, #teambrutalism, or perhaps #teamyouarebothcrazy? Let us know!
