From Farm to Airwaves: Wayne’s Soft Launch, Ham Radio, and UFO Talk (Ep. 173)
Description
In this lively midweek episode, I catch up with our executive producer and longtime friend, Wayne Rankin, for a freewheeling conversation that spans new show launches, homestead grit, and the mysteries of the skies. We talk Wayne’s soft launch plans for Rosanna’s upcoming green-screen video series (with cooking, constitutional themes, and high-end production), platform choices, domain wrangling, and why audio still matters for on-the-go listeners. Wayne shares life on the farm post-injury—splitting wood, harvest rhythms, and dialing back the phone to reclaim focus—plus his push into ham radio to build a global, censorship-resistant comms lifeline. We dive into UFOs, interdimensional theories, scripture, and discerning spirits, with personal sightings and a look at how content and clarity—not just platforms—set great shows apart. We wrap with production notes, how executive producers join us on-air, and what’s ahead for Friday’s show.
If you’re into practical media-building, old-school radio craft, faith-infused perspective, and a dash of X-Files curiosity, this one’s for you. And yes—video’s coming, but we’re keeping audio strong so you can ride along wherever you are.
