Utah’s One Thing: Jackie Assaad Beehive Cheese

Standard

Since we started our show in 2016, we have been asking our guests at the end of every New Utah interview, “What is the one thing that you would tell someone visiting Utah they had to do before leaving?”

Jackie Assaad of Beehive Cheese sat down with us for the cheesiest episode 160. Of course we say you need to try some Beehive Cheese, but Jackie said she was put on the spot by our question. The one thing she would tell someone visiting Utah to do before they left would be to get into the Uintah mountains! You can find 10 great hikes in the Uintah’s at 10 Adventures.com

Fact: The Uintah’s are the only contiguous (that means together/in sequence) mountain range that runs east-west in the United States!

Utah’s One Thing: Front Row Film Roast/CrowdSourced Comedy

Standard

Since we started our show in 2016, we have been asking our guests at the end of every New Utah interview, “What is the one thing that you would tell someone visiting Utah they had to do before leaving?”

Episode 154 we had the cast of the Front Row Film Roast/ CrowdSourced Comedy join us for a roaring good time! We asked Jessica, Andrew, Trevor, and Craig what the one thing the would tell someone visiting Utah they had to do before leaving! Here are there answers.

Andrew said that there is so much here but because others have mentioned national parks, etc. Andrew said to go to the Avenues! There is no rhyme or reason behind the style of homes and also in the Avenues is the Salt Lake Cemetery. It’s on a hill you can see all the city and the history connected to Utah.

Craig said, yes it sounds cliché for him to say, but if you are in Utah in the month of June go to Utah’s pride festival! SLC is unique because it has one of the most dense LGBTQ+ populations because a lot of people flock to the state because it is a place to belong.

Jessica said it depends on what you enjoy but her one thing to do in Utah, is to go to Cedar City and take in the Shakespeare Festival! It goes from June to October!

Trevor said his one thing is to go to the restaurant Five Alls, but our Jessica squashed his hopes and dreams by telling him it had recently closed. He then said, go to F***n Arches!

Utah’s One Thing: Dave Cawley, Cold Podcast Host

Standard

Since we started our show in 2016, we have been asking our guests at the end of every New Utah interview, “What is the one thing that you would tell someone visiting Utah they had to do before leaving?”

We had the honor of sitting down for episode 147 with local podcaster and investigative journalist, Dave Cawley, of The Cold Podcast. We asked Dave what his one thing, he would tell someone visiting Utah, they had to do before leaving would be. Dave told us it was complicated to tell us the why, but he told us he loves Utah’s back country. Dave also told us he hates talking about it because he hate’s what people do it and he wants to keep it sacred. So he stopped talking about his favorite places. We respect that.

Dave did tell us that the one thing someone should do when visiting Utah would be to drive to Torrey, Utah. He said go down Highway 12 to Hole in the Rock Road to Kodachrome in Bryce Canyon and over to Zion. Utah.com always has great information about locations like Kodachrome!

Utah’s One Thing: Sim Gill, SLC DA Part 2

Standard

Since we started our show in 2016, we have been asking our guests at the end of every New Utah interview, “What is the one thing that you would tell someone visiting Utah they had to do before leaving?”

Episode 146 was our second sit down with Salt Lake District Attorney, Sim Gill. Previously he told us in episode 126 that his one thing someone should do while visiting Utah was, visit Utah’s beautiful mountain trails. Sim wanted to see if he said the same thing, and sure enough his heart is in the mountains. Sim said he always goes back to his mountains. Always back to hiking and the natural resources that Utah has. Sim says, “the world comes to Utah to look at our mountains and to ski our mountains, and the natural resources that we have.” He is amazed that Utahn’s don’t take advantage as much as we should. He said we live in a bowl with bad air quality and to be able to walk into the mountains and free your mind, you see that people are just so happy when you’re on a trail. Oh, and Sim said go look at SLC architecture and go float in the Great Salt Lake!

Sim’s sidekick Ben said to go eat curry at Katmandu on Highland Drive and also go to the Salt Flats.
