Let’s Go Eat and Drink
Lots of good things can happen over a meal. You have a little food, a little bit to drink and the next thing you know, you’ve solved all the world’s problems. That’s what we want to do with The Let’s Go Eat and Drink Show. Every so often we, Jimmy and Bill, will find someone interesting from entertainment, the arts, chefs, distillers, brewers, or politicians, and sit down with them for some food, some drinks, and some conversation.

This is a special edition of the Let's Go Eat Podcast for a couple of reasons. First, it doesn't take place at a restaurant. Also, there's no food. You'll have to imagine culinary delights in your head and look for a drink suggestion elsewhere this week because Bill sat down with Utah Attorney General, Sean Reyes, in his office. Mr. Reyes recently received national and international notoriety from a recent trip to South America to break up a child sex trafficking ring. A refreshing story about someone representing the state of Utah when it seems most of the press Utah receives is from our quirkiness or Sundance.
