A general conversation podcast where I sit with a guest (but may fly solo on occasion) with no particular topics, structure, direction or agenda. I am looking to grow as a person and help others grow by exercising free thought and free speech to explore new ideas, societal trends and things I generally find interesting (including potentially sensitive and/or controversial subjects). Please bear with me as I grow this podcast as this is a true start up. I currently know nothing about audio and I am learning how to converse in a way that is consumable to the common podcast listener. Audio quality, conversational quality and production quality WILL improve as this podcast grows (along with myself and, hopefully, my audience).

Stay Free

Happy 1st Birthday to Lillian and also to my late Grandma Carolyn. I needed some time away but I'm back at it and I wanted to test adding the video element for this one. Thanks Jeff! Speaking of Jeff, go subscribe to The Ladder Up Podcast on YouTube! I was recently a guest and had a great time ranting on his platform.
