I don’t listen to podcasts much but I’m sure enjoying Tidewater Talk. I like the news briefs, things to do in the area and the weather. I don’t live in VA but have family there so I’m excited to do some of the things you’ve mentioned next time I’m there. Keep up the great work! - Karie Brown
Welcome to another engaging episode of Tidewater Talk, where Brodie and Co keep you informed about the latest happenings in Coastal Virginia. This week, we dive into a mix of local news, weather updates, and community insights.
We kick off with a light-hearted discussion about the weekend and the humorous concept of 'milk sandwiches' during snowstorms, a nod to the snowpocalypse days in DC. This segues into a serious note about a 70-year-old man rescued by the Coast Guard after his vessel took on water near Willoughby Bay, highlighting the bravery and resilience of our local community members.
Next, we explore a controversial environmental issue concerning the removal of trees at Pleasure House Creek to restore wetlands, sparking a debate on preserving natural beauty versus ecological restoration.
We also discuss a new program by the Virginia Department of Social Services allowing certain SNAP recipients to purchase meals at select fast-food restaurants, stirring mixed feelings about the quality of food provided.
As we transition to weather updates, we discuss the ongoing state of emergency due to power outages affecting 450,000 residents, and the upcoming snowstorm expected to bring significant snowfall to the area. We share safety tips for those who must travel during these conditions.
Finally, we touch on local events like the Mardi Gras bar crawl in Norfolk and gardening tips for the season, encouraging listeners to engage with the community and explore local resources like the Master Gardeners Association.
Join us next week for more insights and stories from Coastal Virginia. Stay safe and warm!
