  • Thanks Bernie and Dallas

    I had been holding off on listening to this episode with Dallas Shoo until I had a good hour and wanted to be taken away to “edge land” as Dallas calls it. It fulfilled this and so much more. What’s wonderful low key laid back couple of guys. I love the back stories it was wonderful. Thanks so much.
