In case you are wondering, it is not a coincidence that our current book is Surprised By Joy by C.S. Lewis. That is because it is the holy season. I was hoping to end it here but clearly I got hung up in my own life and

Last week was an emotional one. We were supposed to be moving and then we weren't. I have to admit that I have no idea what to do. The safest thing is to continue preparing to move without any real guarantee that it is g

You have believe that Orwell was going to come up again, how could it not? There is just so much always related to what is going on with current events and our government. This seems to be the 'Newspeak' that obfuscates

This is a swan song to my podcasting in my office. Man, I am going to miss this place when (if) we move. There very well may be one more podcast after today but I don't know where I will record it. I expect that there wi

Brace yourselves, this is my first podcast in my new office. Yes, the audio quality is not good at all. The room is super echo-y and I am on my Bluetooth headset for a microphone. That makes the resolution low to begin w

I have fishing on the mind. We are headed out to the lake house again for a couple of days and so I thought that I would throw in on how to get started with fishing. This is not the skills but where to start with the gea

Before you go to the supercenter and plunk down $50 on a substandard tool kit, consider spending twice that amount and get the tools that you will actually need and last a lifetime. Heck, buy a couple each month if budge

You might have been wondering where I am at such a polarizing time. That time has come. I comment on the Minneapolis, ICE shooting that occurred a couple of weeks ago. I also talk about history and how events of the Bost

Today's podcast was born out of some question my son was asking me. Today I talk about things to consider when starting out buying tools. It is really hard to recommend brands especially when things change over the years

We are in that time of year where a lot of people are thinking about ways to become a different person. You might call it a resolution or just a goal but despite the fact that our culture highly regards goals, I tend to

Today I go through my work in 2025 and sum up the highlights for the year. I analyze the general theme of the month/quarter/year as well as highlight my favorites of the year. When I look back at previous years, I realiz

I've got a lot of problems with you people. It is time for the annual airing of grievances. You can probably guess some of the items because it seems like they are on my list every year. However, there are some new ones

While the deal is not completely done, we are in the process of packing. We are also paying rent in the new house and so we have the keys but I am a little leery of doing too much until the deal is done. It does allow us

It's that time of year again. It is time for my gift buying episode. The thing that is different about this year is that I also talk about strategies that I typically use for my spouse. I probably won't get a lump of coa

There is a reason that my regular cadence has cooled tremendously. Today I talk about those reasons and a little bit about what my future holds. Let me just say that getting old isn't for the feint of heart. Hopefully we

I had a dream that one day I would be independent pursuing the American Dream. This is my admission of surrender that AltF4.co is limping along as a labor of love rather than a career. Today I talked about the changes in

This is the story that never ends, so I thought I would throw in my two cents about it. You know who I am talking about, Charlie Kirk. But, before I get into that I want to talk about the intended subject of the podcast,

I almost disappeared off the face of the earth. I said almost. Today, I talk about what has been going on and the prognosis for the future. The title, my lack of content and all that will be in today's podcast. Hopefully

The word value in business is thrown around like a dirty pair of socks. It is a huge buzz word in the context of value sells, especially in an uncertain economy. But, does value mean the same to everyone? In fact, I thin
