  • The Barista's Task is to Make Coffee Delightful

    The Barista's Task is to Make Coffee Delightful
    Apr 19 2026

    Aaron, Chris, and Wade discuss the vital role that baristas play in the coffee industry. From the skills of making coffee to the emotional labor of handling adults who don't otherwise know how to handle themselves, baristas make coffee delightful on a number of levels. However, they also discuss how baristas are woefully under-supported for the many roles they are expected to play in the industry.

    IF YOU ARE A BARISTA AND YOU WANT TO JOIN THIS CONVERSATION: REACH OUT TO US! We would like to talk to baristas about your experiences making coffee delightful day in and day out. Even if you don't want to do a full interview, you can write to us or simply answer a couple of questions. You deserve to be heard, and we are listening.

  • "Season Three" Wrap

    "Season Three" Wrap
    Mar 27 2026
    Looking back on recent episodes (and a few not-so-recent episodes) Aaron Pascucci and Wade Reed have a freewheeling (at times unhinged?) conversation about everything from Down Syndrome Awareness Month to dream coffee interviews. Coffee as a vehicle for many forms of cultural expression, the changing state of the coffee scene in Rochester, our past podcast endeavors, and other Rochester creatives to get involved with (including our Lunchador network mates and Cleveland Prost, one of our favorite Rochester Substacks) this conversation HAS IT ALL.Mentioned in this episode:Rochester Amerks (@amerkshockey) - Rochester Ice Cats - Down Syndrome Diagnosis Network (@thedsdn) - Best Buddies (@bestbuddiesny) - Bitty & Beau's Coffee (@bittyandbeauscoffee) - Sager Beer Works - (@sager_stoneyard_pub) - Cleveland Prost (@cleveland.prost) - Gigi's Playhouse (@gigisplayhouserochester) - Archers Coffee (@archers.ae) - WAYO 104.3 FM (@wayoradio) - Common Thread - (@commonthreadhxcpodcast) - Ugly Duck Coffee (@uglyduckcoffee) - Joe Bean Roasters (@joebeanroasters) - Grounds for Health (@groundsforhealth) - Kopani Coffee (@kopanicoffee) - Ghost Town Oats (@ghosttownworld)Mentioned in this episode:Joe Bean RoastersJoe Bean Coffee - Coffee that lifts everyone. https://shop.joebeanroasters.comConnections with Evan Dawson Connections with Evan Dawson - Subscribe wherever you get your podcastsConnectionsGetting Real with Bossy: For Women Who Own Business Check out Getting Real with Bossy: For Women Who Own Business on Lunchador! https://feeds.captivate.fm/gettingrealwithbossy/

  • Lily and Michelle Soehadi of Kopani Coffee are Pouring Gotong Royong in Every Cup

    Lily and Michelle Soehadi of Kopani Coffee are Pouring Gotong Royong in Every Cup
    Mar 13 2026

    Aaron, Chris, and Wade sit down with Lily and Michelle Soehadi, who founded Kopani Coffee in November, 2024. Alongside roasting delicious coffee, they've served drinks from their signature menu on their coffee cart, and held educational events to enrich their community's experience of coffee. Their story and approach to coffee are driven by gotong royong, a commitment to mutual enrichment in community settings, a value they carry from their Indonesian heritage, but especially from their late mother. Coupled with a drive to truly learn and teach about coffee, Kopani continues to grow in every direction, telling an inspiring story along the way.
