Burn the Undergrowth

TAGQ (That's A Good Question)

This second podcast of Ben and Scott delves into Ben's training in intentional burning as a form of landscape management. Plus some culinary club observations. Sponsored by Vectaport Sales selling BioBags for now, I guess.
From podium.page:
When my dad, Scott Johnston, and I decided to tackle the whimsical world of podcasting, we never imagined how a simple conversation between family could weave such a rich tapestry of stories and insights. Our latest episode playfully opens with our debate on the pros and cons of using our full names in the intro—a choice that teeters between personal branding and just plain old privacy. Then, we meander through Scott's bio bag business escapades and my comical, albeit unrecognized, attempt at a Rajneeshee costume for Halloween, setting the stage for an episode brimming with laughter and unexpected wisdom.
As we wade further into the waters of podcast creation, we dissect the structures and content that captivate listeners, ranging from the mundane's magnetic pull to our take on the oversaturated universe of celebrity podcasts. But it's not all giggles and jest; the conversation takes a serious turn as we pivot towards discussing prescribed fire. This traditional land management practice sparks a fascinating talk on fire ecology, the role of human intervention, and the hope it represents in our climate-riddled world. Our back-and-forth explores the delicate balance required to maintain healthy ecosystems, and the cultural shift towards embracing these ancient practices once again.
Capping off our discussion, we reminisce about our childhood fascination with fire before igniting interest in our culinary club idea—a concept born from a desire to share the love of cooking and community. But it's not all food for thought; we close with the more practical matters of waste management, delving into the surprisingly complex world of choosing the right size bio bags for Scott's business. Whether you're here for the hearty laughs, the deep environmental discussions, or the simple joy of cooking, our latest episode offers a smorgasbord of topics to satisfy your listening cravings.
