PLATE & PONDER: EMPTY NESTING w/ Jen & Chris Fenton
Dinner, Dialogue & Debate
Welcome to Plate & Ponder — where a longtime married couple, now proud empty nesters looking for a highly constructive way to occupy our time, pour a glass of wine, share a meal, and tackle the biggest stories shaping our world. She's an inner-city charter school director, elected official, and former school board president. He’s a media executive, professor, and author. Together, they bring decades of parenting, public service, politics, and purpose to the table.
From the joys and growing pains of an empty house to the cultural and geopolitical headlines you can’t ignore, this is a candid kitchen-table conversation that’s equal parts heart, humor, and hard truths.
Unscripted. Unfiltered. Unapologetically curious. Pull up a chair — dinner is served.
