Kitchen Conversations: Recent Episodes
Aisha and Dave Crumbine
After 28 years of teaching, a few awards, founding a company that helps parents find excellent schools, and a chapter in a book on Amazon, husband and wife, Aisha and Dave Crumbine, love chatting in their kitchen. They search for answers to teacher, parent, and life questions. These are genuine conversations. The difference is we hit record.
Call or email us. We’d love to have your questions on a future episode: (832) 819-5166 or kitchengab@gmail.com

As an interracial couple, we don't speak for anyone of any race. However, we do walk in with experiences, thoughts, and reflections that aren't the norm. On this journey in episode 53, we are vulnerable, honest, and don't hold back tears. If you get a chance to listen, we'd love your feedback.
