May 27, 2022 21:10 - 30 minutes - 21.3 MBI'm coming up on my two-year anniversary of going out on my own and running NodleStudios LLC full time.

008 - The First Six Months of Freelancing and Solo Floundering
November 28, 2020 03:25 - 20 minutes - 16.8 MBYes, you read that right… “floundering” was the word I used as opposed to “foundering.” I don’t know if I need to explain myself more than that or not, but it sure has felt like the last six months, since I’ve made the move to freelancing instead of being an employee, have been rather like “flopping along like a fish out of water.” It has been a while since I recorded, if I looked correctly the last episode was released on May the 29th. This episode is basically a “what have I bee...
007 - What Have I Done?
May 29, 2020 12:00 - 13 minutes - 18.8 MBI haven’t recorded for a while. I’d apologize for that, but it simply hasn’t felt right to sit down and go on about myself and what I’m doing while the world continues to be bombarded by COVID-19 and all the things that come with that. So, why record an episode now? Because things are changing, and recently they changed in a fairly substantial way. Today is Friday, May 29th, and yesterday was officially my last day with the company I’ve been working for for the past 4 years or so....

Work continues almost normally, although I worked from home the entire week this week instead of the normal 2 days at home and 2 days in the office.

My families farm is trying to understand how things might change as we head towards an earlier than normal PYO strawberry season. My church had our spring revivals from mid last week till mid th...
005 - Jumping Out of the Airplane Before the Parachute is Ready
March 13, 2020 20:00 - 14 minutes - 19.8 MBIts Friday march the 13th. I’m sure that I’m not the only one who has a fair bit on my mind right, as the US braces for the Coronavirus its difficult to focus on other things that suddenly feel a lot less important. I did want to record this episode today though because even though we’re in a bit of a strange time (yes that’s an understatement), life does continue to move forward. Even if it does feel like a parallel universe at times. I’ve not gotten a lot done on NodleStudios p...
