Over the years I’ve been fortunate to work with master chefs Tom Douglas (chef/owner of Lola, Palace Kitchen, Serious Pie, Dahlia Lounge, Etta’s, as well as many, many others) and Thierry Rautureau (chef/owner of restaurants Loulay and Luc) not only within the world of radio, both present day and back when the duo had their first radio show, In the Kitchen with Tom and Thierry, but I’ve assisted Mr. Douglas in the kitchen as well – in Hawaii no less!Â

In 1991 I was 14 years old. My music knowledge was limited. I listened to hip hop, heavy metal and stuff my parents liked, which was primarily Frank Sinatra, crooners, doo-wop and Neil Diamond. Oh, and “Weird” Al Yankovic was top on my list, too. A LOT of “Weird” Al Yankovic. There was one particular night, however, during my fourteenth year of life that changed not only my music listening course but millions of others around the world as well. As most teens are wont to do, I was sanctioned in my bedroom, alone, listening to the radio, most likely […]

The Monarch Drinks With Linda Derschang

As I’m driving on Aurora Ave. to Canlis to meet up with my “Drinks With†companion, Linda Derschang, I begin to feel nervous. This is my modus operandi when it comes to just about every interview I’ve been involved with. It really makes no difference if I know the person or not, my nerves work against me. In an attempt to remedy this I make sure to have notes, questions, ideas. Something  written down and in front of me during the interview in order to keep me focused, reassured – a security blanket. Also, you should probably know that I […]
The Mixtape With Sean De Tore

Sean De Tore is Jesus!!! Now that I have your attention, Sean De Tore is not Jesus, but he is a shepherd of sorts these days, hosting a podcast called the mixtape, in which Sean guides listeners through the jungle of local Seattle bands with interviews and in-studio performances, along with an occasional on-air game of Battleship. His interviews are informed and hilarious, the bands are always great, and Sean’s shining personality makes the show a spotlight for anyone looking for something fresh. Turning a new chapter perhaps, Sean is now taking his show from the studio and out into […]
