Episode 224 - Beer to Gear Ratio

Mid summer.  Finally we got some rain and it is supposed to continue.  The amazing thing is that we really haven't had any sustained rain since July 2.

Isabelle is off to meet a friend at a powwow.

There were lots of people at the beer store returning empties, us included. Some of them were clearly stocking up for a big fishing/camping trip.  They had pickups.

Isabelle will be displaying her wares at Pridefest this weekend which is cool.  Hopefully she'll make twenty eight thousand dollars.  It's always good to get out and support people who are different than you are.

Hey, it was Isabelle's birthday and I got her a heat gun!

Also it was prime day and I got one of those echo speaker things.

Episode 223 - Sooper Dooper Yoopers

So, I was at the Marshall McLuhan Podcaster Roundtables last week where I met up with old friends, but made new ones, including Chris, Mike's wife.  

The great thing is, they were on a tour of home cities of podcasters or something, so on their way back after visiting Montreal, they came to our place for dinner last night.  It was great!

We already knew Mike of course, but Chris is great.  

Oh I made Paella, hence this week's picture.

We've had a lot of positive feedback about our last episode, thanks!  This led us into a discussion of relationships.

I bought wild boar, and I'm not afraid to cook it.

Episode 222 - Anniversary 3.0

I'm writing this while sitting across from Isabelle early in the morning.  She doesn't know that, and you probably don't care. Hey, remember that TV show 'Room 222'?  I'm not sure I ever watched that.  I'm clearly just filling up space right now, I'm sure I'll have something much more interesting to add later.  I hope so anyway, this is horrible......

So we didn't record in the car yesterday, but instead, went 'old school' and got the mics out in the 'podcasting studio' that is also Maddie's old room.

You may know that rooms from such podcasts as Best Episode Ever, MMVH and Spit and Twitches.

Today is the 30th anniversary of us meeting!  It is the day that we celebrate as our anniversary, rather than our wedding one.

We talked about a lot of different stuff, much of it reflecting on the last 30 years, and some of it about the future.  It's all inspired by the day though.

Oh and Happy Canada Day!
