Ham Radio Podclass 2016

  I'm super excited about the Podcast 2.0 project and the features we have implemented at my Day Job (Blubrry.com). It feels to me very much like Podcasting felt back in the beginning of podcasting 2004-2005.  I go over some of those features and why YOU might be interested as a listener OR podcaster. The good old days are back! In other subjects, I have started what is known as the Carnivore diet or PHD (Proper Human Diet) in hopes of improving my health.  I talked quite a bit about it in this episode. To help me NOT bore everyone I know with it, I have started an Audio blog (read Podcast DOh!) called My Carnivore Health Journey.  It's available here: https://mikedell.com/carnivore-2/  It's a blog as well as a podcast where I will post more personal progress on my health journey and other things of interest to the carnivore community.  Wish me luck!

When is it time to get rid of the old car?  I have 2 of them that I really shouldn't put any money into. BUT, they are not THAT broken. First on the list is my Loser Cruiser My 2006 Dodge Grand Caravan that has a 1/4 million miles on it. It just keeps going and going and going. Right now its leaking power steering fluid. If its the Pump, then it *might* be time to junk it. The other one is a 2006 Subaru Forester that I already totaled once, bought it back, traded it for a pickup truck, traded back for it just recently.  It has numerous issues.  But nothing too expensive, just a Pain in the butt. My nephew just junked my old 93 F-150 that I sold him 8 years ago.  The frame broke.  It was time.

Today I talk all about snow in Traverse City.   Here are some info about snow at this website.   This podcast is posted on MikeDell.com Go there and subscribe!

I will be trying to do an episode every day for the month of November. Check out napodpomo.org. I'm also participating in No Shave November this year. I'm starting a little early on that one.  I hope to see what a santa-beard looks like on me :)  I will post pics weekly starting November 1st. Will the NaPodPoMo episodes be the best episodes ever?  Likely not, but they will be short and I will try to make them fun. What can you say?  :)  Its always fun listing to someone go from nice fall weather to winter. My plan is to do on different topics each day of the week. Sundays: I will do a Ham Radio related episode.  (My callsign is K8LMJ - see my ham info at K8LMJ.com) Mondays: Podcasting related Tuesdays: Traverse City (Northern Michigan) related Wednesdays: Car related Thursdays: Current events (Maybe Politics?) Fridays: History stuff Saturdays: Host's choice This podcast is posted on MikeDell.com Go there and subscribe (or follow‽) !
