Down in The Laugh Cellar with Lisa Pidge: Wine Country comedy

Lisa Pidge, founder of the Laugh Cellar (since 2014) and actual certified pickleball pro, is back on the Spiel with updates on new comedy shows around Sonoma County during the Wine Country Comedy Fest. She talks about how she finds her comedians (this year's lineup includes Chase O'Donnell, Aiko Tanaka, Lisa Gilbert, JJ Barrows, Helen Chu, ​Vien Phommachanh, Amanda Cohen and Solange Castro) and why her wife is a great gardener. She also decries the supposed "Gen Z Stare",  what it was like being a latchkey kid and the fact that there was a smoking section on her high school campus back... in... the... day. Every week our podcast guests answer YOUR questions about wine country and visiting Sonoma.    This week Lisa takes on: Best cafe to hang out on the Plaza and watch the scene? - Visitor from Colombia I was in the Sonoma Plaza and I heard a high piercing shriek coming from the trees above me. It sounded like an eagle. What is it? I was driving along Highway 12 in Kenwood and noticed large piles of what looked like branches and wood in a field all lined up. What are they doing? Hello, we are planning a trip to Sonoma to visit some wineries. I was wondering how long do most tasting last?
