Ryan has worked in coffee for decades, here in Reno and elsewhere, including during the earliest days of Bibo Coffee, where he was the very first employee.

Today's episode features Kaylie Arnold, owner of Haggle Haus, a retail truck offering reclaimed fashion from around the world. Kaylie is a flight attendant, and on her layovers around the world often found herself haggling at markets as well as shopping for unique used fashions in international destinations. Using her experience working in fashion as well, this May she created a micro version of that shopping experience here in Reno.
Her Haggle Haus truck is a mini boutique you can find at the Riverside Farmer's Market as well as other markets around town. There are clothes for men, women, and children, a changing room to try things on, and just as the name suggests- you're free to negotiate on the prices.

Saturday Aug 05, 2023
Saturday Aug 05, 2023
Ella Haworth has been skateboarding in Reno the last 4 years, and recently created an annual female skate contest and skate group she calls Bitchin Betties. What began as a fundraiser for the Wild West Fund, a statewide abortion fund (listen to our episode with them here) has continued as a project to bring more people out to skate in the area.
On this episode, Ella explains why she started skating, how she reacts to haters and hecklers, the process of working with the city to run her event at Idlewild park, what Reno's skater community is like, and much more!
This episode of Renoites is one in a series of shorter episodes, designed so that you can listen and learn without having to dedicate a full hour to the topic. Most "Renoites Shorts" episodes will only be 10-20 minutes long. What do you think of a shorter format? Let me know!

Tuesday Aug 01, 2023
Tuesday Aug 01, 2023
This episode was recorded in front of a live audience at Black Rabbit Mead in Reno, Nevada on July 27, 2023.
The sport of roller derby has a long history and reputation for big personalities, fierce competition, and a fair amount of beating up your friends. On this episode of Renoites, Conor is joined by two of Sierra Regional Roller Derby's players, Slamuel L Jackson and One Hit Wonder to talk about the sport and it's place in Northern Nevada.
Topics include the logistics of the game, like how it's played and the differences between flat track and banked track derby, the shift from a more theatrical pro wrestling vibe into a more serious sport in more recent years, diversity and inclusion, why derby has room for all body types, what makes a good roller derby nickname, an audience Q&A segment, and much more!

A Local Podcast for Reno, Sparks, and Northern Nevada
THIS IS THE LINK WITH ALL THE THINGS
Hi there! My name is Conor and I host this podcast. It's called Renoites and it's an interview show based in Reno, Nevada. My goal for this show is to interview a wide variety of interesting and important people from Northern Nevada. I don't really use this website much because most people listen to podcasts on podcasts apps rather than on web pages like this one. However, it's important to have a web page for search engine optimization purposes! And just for general availability of the show. You can listen here on this page, or on Spotify or Apple Podcasts or Amazon or basically anywhere that podcasts exists.
Do you have suggestions for guests or topics I should have on the podcast? That's great! Please send me an email to conor@renoites.com and get in touch. Also, you should definitely follow me on Instagram at http://www.instagram.com/renoites because I post there with much much more up to date content than you'll ever find on this website. Thanks for checking out the show, I hope you enjoy it!
