Kootenay Lives - Episode 1 with Kim Mamos
What makes a great coffee shop? A coffee shop where neither the patrons nor the staff ever want to leave?
The questions have two equally relevant answers: 1. The great coffee and tea products and 2. The great people running the joint.
The first ever episode of the podcast, Kootenays Lives, is one such great person. Kim owns the Humble Bean coffee shop which is currently in a transition to new places and parts unknown. She is one of those rare people who can't help but bring strangers together in harmony.
Enjoy!
