So I want to tell you that we're coming to the Twin Cities for a live event on Wednesday, July 17th. I'll be talking with Dan and Angie Bastian, co-founders of Angie's Boom Chick-a-Pop. How a history teacher and a psychiatric nurse started making popcorn and eventually got it into stores from coast to coast.
