We're back for what is hopefully a regular weekend podcast from Bedlam Farm. We covered a lot of ground today, from being patient training dogs to adjusting to new Amish neighbors and friends. Maria and I get distracted, but we are zeroing in on podcasts as a way to get our stories told.
This is the true story of our struggle to save a freezing, starving, and abandoned lamb we found. He was completely unexpected and we were totally unprepared. This is what happened after we found his mother..
In today's podcast, we talk about the value of art, and what potholders are worth, we talk about the lies of a President and what they mean, about how we both have grown, about trust and marriage and learning and growth.
We were tired today and wrestled with some minor technical details, our talk ranged from farm rituals to my heart surgeries to loving our little farm. Come and listen.
In this latest podcast, we talked about how our eyes are often fooled by what we see, about Ruth Bader GInsburg and her death, about what is and isn't surgery, about the Virtual Cow Plop, about Zinnia's going into heat, about Maria's creative imagination and other good stuff.
Today, we talked about our farm, how we have grown on the farm, come to love it, what we have learned, our lives with the animals, our lives together. I used to say my farm is the Mother, the dogs brought me here, and Maria has deepened and enriched the experience. Here are sme of our favorite stories.
In this podcast, a good one we think, Maria talks about how she is learning to write so well, I talk about overcoming my terror of exercise and buying an e-bike, and we both end up sharing the ways in which we overcome our fear and uncertainty.
My anointment as Bedlam Farm's Grand Ca-Cas, Portland and Naked Athena, My Creative Process, The World's Longest Quilt-Selling Streak, Zinnia's Light, Housebreaking Dogs. A good one.
We apologize for missing a few podcasts, we're weekly again. Today we rehash our life with the coronavirus, my writing about politics, Maria's desire to be in space (Good Luck, Commander), and her decision to talk to a therapist. Good stuff.
Monday, Maria begins a month-long Artist's Residence and creative retreat, she put aside her tax refund so she can be creative and not worry so much about making money. This is the dream of every creative artist or person, and she has earned it.
In today's podcast, Maria and I talk openly about how the coronavirus has changed us, and in some cases, for the better. We are hopeful about the future, and working hard to understand the present. Come along.
In the midst of a frightening Pandemic, Maria and I talk about the role of artists in troubled times.
Some laughs, some tears, some reflections on creativity and life in these strange and wrenching times. Come and listen. This might just help, it was good for us.
This podcast is devoted to people who are struggling to deal with the awful coronavirus which has transformed out country overnight into something unrecognizable. It is not just a pandemic, it is also an opportunity to grow and learn. Come and listen.
Maria and I talk about friendship, awakening, belly dancing, yarn, art, stickers, dogs, and life. We learned a lot about life these past few weeks.
