Apple & Oak Podcast

A gentle check-in between two friends, reflecting on work, life, and current events.

We’re all over the map this week — swapping fishing tales, reminiscing about the glory and terror of waterslides that feel like near-death experiences, and asking the important question: when did every bathing suit become a thong? We also get sidetracked by the northern lights (again) and somehow end up talking about Trump (don’t worry, it’s brief). It’s chaotic, it’s honest, and it might be our m...

In this episode, we sit down with our friend Deb — yes, that Deb, one of the top 100 most loved accordion players in the world — but this isn’t a story about music. Not yet. Deb shares a deeply personal and, at times, painful journey: from a violent encounter with police to a serious fall that led to unexpected medical discoveries.

To wrap things up, we shift gears with some easy music talk—highlighting bold artists doing what it takes...

This episode is a celebration of moms—their strength, their humor, and all the little moments that make motherhood what it is.
