Cascara Wide

A new episode of Cascara is out now from theย Sprudge Podcast Networkโ€”a growing mixtape of podcast shows dedicated to coffee, culture, and the intersection therein. Cascara, theย coffee travel podcast, is hosted by Cydni Patterson.

In this episode, Patterson takes us to San Francisco and interviews Wrecking Ball Coffee Roasters co-founder Nick Cho. Nick Cho started Wrecking Ball Coffee in 2011 with Trish Rothgeb. After two decades in the specialty coffee world, Nick Cho is now enjoying a viral moment with his @yourkoreandadย character on TikTok.

The specialty coffee industry is such a unique industry to be a part of,” says host Cydni Patterson, “we have access to many of the key players that built the foundation of the coffee industry as we know it today. Nick Cho is definitely one of those key players. And when you have access to such a wealth of institutional knowledge, you get a greater understanding of where we are as a field today, and you get help navigating the next practical steps that we can take to take us to where we want to be as a field tomorrow.”
