  • Anything technical?

    This would be a TON better if there was done decent discussion about recipe building and technique. If it wasn't for the solid guests, this would be unbearable to listen to. The non-stop laughter, the cell phones that keep dinging, the long awkward pauses.... Time to train on Interviewing 101. I thought a two hour podcast with Ken Schramm would be more than 1:45 talking about apple tree varieties.

  • Great info

    Great podcast. I just wish they created a second podcast more focused on technical information with a bit less gabbing.

    Also, some of us cannot afford to go to the conferences, the "teasers" to the information that will be provided in talks at the conferences do more to irritate then anything. Please include how the "rest of us" can aquire the information that you will not disclose on the podcast.
