664 - Road ROMA (89 & Budokon Recap)

We were camping at the Tom Thorn/Beth Williams Wildlife Habitat Management Area in southern Wyoming when we recorded this, yesterday. It’s raw. It’s real. Maybe you can hear the birds chirping. Anya and I recap the retreat and give some thoughts about being on the road. This is a public episode.

663 - Erik Rittenberry (Poetic Outlaws)

Erik’s is the brain behind one of my favorite accounts on Substack, Poetic Outlaws. If I were a woman, I’d be chasing guys like him: smart, tough, adventurous, well-read, sensitive, funny, talented, and way more humble than a guy like that has any right to be. He writes beautifully, takes great photos, has impeccable taste in literature. This is a public episode.
