Well, if you thought the wait was long between episodes 94 and 95, you ain’t seen nothing yet. Episode 96 is out and after only 2 years and 3 months! We appreciate all who have stuck with us and the new listeners too. We hope you like this episode and we hope to do more as we get time. In the meantime, you can reach as on Instagram: @JesseSavageBlacksmith and @barter_rick
Well, after a little more than a year, we figured it was time to put out another episode. After all, who are we to rob you of our awesomeness? We talk about a wide variety of topics: farming, logging, skunks, ironwork, beer, etc. Jesse is hilarious, as always, and Rick says ‘awesome’ too much for good taste. If we have any listeners left, we hope all three of you enjoy this episode. If you did like it, let us know. We may try to do them more than once a year. Happy Holidays! Duration: 1 hour 15 minutes
Happy Holidays!!! We spend some time with @sunsetforgenj, @thetradesmanchannel, @dkforgeworks, and @shipwrightskills. We find out what they’re up to and see what they’re doing for the holidays. Sadly @sunsetforgenj lost his connection at some point and our realization that he was gone and the ensuing conversation wound up on the cutting room floor. We try to never edit content, but sometimes it’s necessary. Those of you that don’t appreciate a little swearing might want to skip this episode. Also, know that if there is swearing or other adult behaviour in an episode we mark it as Explicit so you can filter it out if you like.
We spend some time talking about family, booze, projects, anvils, smoke in the shop, and chimneys.
