Ep 47 My name is NOT Billy Blanks

Standard

Episode 47 of The New Utah podcast was a blast! Our interview was full of stories that we didn’t even imagine. Dash Cox who is part owner of Title Boxing in Cottonwood Heights, an author, and nutritionist joined us on Tuesday. Dash shared his story of being a refugee and you guys, guess what? He isn’t even doing all those bad things that our President thinks refugee’s do! Dash also gave us a break down of his nutrition program he created and his history in boxing. Oh, and his name is NOT Flash or Billy Blanks! Listen to his story on the link below for more of his stories. We promise that his humility and perseverance will make you want to go take a class from him at Title Boxing in Cottonwood Heights.  You can find him daily at Title Boxing in Cottonwood Heights or on DASHSupport.

Episode 29… Socks and Porn go hand in hand.

Standard

Yep, we said that…

Episode 29 is here to warm your feet and your soul. And maybe make you laugh a little.

Oh, porn in Utah. Governor Herbert wants to spend about 50k because well, you know… porn in a health risk. (this is us, rolling our eyes) What do you think? Public health crisis or people should just keep it in the closet??

10 days til Christmas and there is still time to hit up the Winter Market at Rio Grande this weekend. The Trolley Square Gift market Friday and Saturday, and next week on Wednesday the Sugarhouse Gift Market! There are plenty of local artists and creators that can meet your present needs this season. Plus, we just really want you to shop local. Before you head out shopping on Sunday, head to SLC Drag Brunch for a Christmas show.

And Saturday the 17th, our friends at Mountain West Cider are unveiling a special release they have teamed up with The Green Urban Lunch Box for!! This is limited release.
