The Special Edition: "Camping Is Too Expensive For Black People"

This month's Special is quite troubling and I must admit annoying. I came across this article a while back but saved it for today. Although we're coming to the close of the regular camping season. There are some that will be winter camping. This subject bugs me because it implies that, camping is too expensive for black people. I am tired of the constant division over ethnicity. So here we go, get your ticket for the crazy train it's leaving the station, now. --- Support this podcast: htt...

In part two of Lessons we learn from children's books, we take on The Three Little Pigs. I have to to say we had more fun playing around with this story.

The Book Nook:"The Tomorrow Girls" by Eva Gray and "Discrimination and Disparities" by Thomas Sowell

This week's episode we take it easy with a discussion about books. I challenged Elizabeth with this week's theme. She said a book club thing. Sounds good! Especially after the "heavy" Special Edition. It was for a little fun. So, we're talking about what we're currently reading. I think "The Book Nook" should be a monthly thing.

The Special Edition: "Tik Tok, Uncle Joe And Conspiracy Theories"

This month's rant, is well... just that! A trip down the rabbit hole of news and crazy current events. I must admit I'm glad this is a once a month(thus far) thing. The news changes so quickly in 24-48 hours or at least, what's the hot topic. We began with Tik Tok and by the time of recording Joe Biden had become big news. Yep! We just let the "tape" roll. Folks I hope you enjoy it. But I couldn't do this type of show as a daily podcast. Put on your seatbelts and ride this crazy train. --- ...

This week's episode is the ramblings of two people with nothing else to do. Our hike was postponed, I failed to come up with a theme for the show and when I asked the teenager... well, she had nothing either.
