Barncast 71 — Reality Check

2007/06/17 in Farming, Lifestyles, Podcast, Podcasting, Reality Check by andrew | 4 comments

It’s summer so we’ve basically stopped podcasting from the barn for a bit, it just get’s way to hot up in the hayloft (attic) of the barn when it’s >90f/30c outside and the sun is beating down on the roof all day. Instead we’re out back on our patio, with the birds and the wind that picked up due to thunderstorms close by.

We have a less serious show this week. We blaze through the round up in record time, let us know what you think. The main topic is a reality check. Inspired by the end of the downshiftme podcast we cover what our expectations of work and interests were and then look at the reality of it. While we’ve covered a similar topic about 30 shows ago, we look at our situation more and what we are up to.

In the show:

Intro and Welcome
Farm Phone: 206-202-GOAT

Tom and sheep milk
Peg from Vancouver Island
Omly from Boston

Round Up

Reality check, our goals and reality

Well it’s been a long time since we had a guest on the show, so I’m sure you’ll welcome having Tom the Beekeeper back on with us. If you don’t remember him check out show’s 26 and 29 (or there abouts) to hear past episodes when Tom has joined us. We have a couple of connection problems, but over all it’s a great show!
