September is here, and you can already hear the drums in the distance.

There is a unique magic that happens when clothing becomes an armor of identity. For millions of Americans, that autumn transformation happened inside a marching band uniform.

In this episode of “Grandma’s Silver,” we’re celebrating the start of the season by diving into the pageantry and nostalgia stitched into the seams of marching band uniforms.

We’re heading to Greenville, Illinois, to visit the legendary DeMoulin Museum. Founder and curator John Goldsmith joins us to talk about DeMoulin Brothers & Co., one of the country’s oldest uniform manufacturers that actually started by making bizarre secret society pranks before shaping the mid-century marching band boom.

Grab your stadium blanket and tune in now. Available wherever you listen to podcasts!

Thinking about decorating for fall this weekend 👀

Something about being a mom now makes me want to lean into the seasons even harder, which I didn’t think was possible because I have always been very into seasons 😅

When do you start transitioning your home for a new season?

You know coastal style. But true coastal living is about far more than just literal beach themes and kitschy decor; it is an architectural and cultural response to landscape, light, and heritage.

In today’s new episode of “Grandma’s Silver,” I sit down with former HGTV host and acclaimed interior designer Krista Watterworth Alterman of Krista + Home. With decades of experience designing multi-million-dollar residences, Krista delivers a masterclass in intentional design.

Soak up the last rays of summer with this fun conversation about high-end coastal spaces!

Can you literally design a sense of community?

When Disney built Celebration, Florida in the 1990s, they weren’t just building houses. They tried to engineer human connection through architecture, walkability, and shared spaces.

In the latest episode of “Grandma’s Silver,” I sit down with Kathleen Sipio, Executive Director of the Celebration Foundation. We dive into what Celebration looks like three decades later, how traditions form when a town has no historic roots, and how to transform a neighborhood of strangers into a place of belonging.

Available now wherever you listen to podcasts!
